The Magic: How the Butterfly Bush works: Buddleia or Butterfly Bush has been a sensation in American gardens for years, and no wonder. This plant is easy to grow, blooms profusely, and has that magical quality: Butterflies cant resist it.
Here's why: Its not just the pretty flowers that attract the butterflies, like any bright flower. Buddleias emit a special honey-scented fragrance that lures butterflies like a moth to a light, and then once there, they find the flowers super-rich in nectar.
A butterfly bush in the garden will often be seen with a mass of butterflies on the flowers, especially during hot sunny afternoons. Buddleias attract other insects too, like moths, and the reddish ones strongly attract hummingbirds. So its more than a name; its actually a botanical phenomenon.

a very tough plant!

Comments about Butterfly Bush Flutterby Grande Peach Cobbler:
I wanted a plant that could grow in the hot, dry, Las Vegas valley. This one performs!Looks a little weedy when the seed pods appear; but, you can't have everything.
Great addition to my Cottage Garden!
By New Cottage gardener
from Rogers, AR
I gave a try, for the first time, to a Butterfly Bush and I ordered from American Meadows two -Peach Cobbler and Midnight Blue. I planted them in containers until I found the exact location in my new cottage garden. I planted the purple Buddelia in a way that encloses the patio area and the Peach Cobbler along the fence, facing the patio. I look at both of them at the same time and I can't decide which one is more beautiful than the other. Both have grown bushy and tall (3 ft). I receive them like two little twigs, but I knew they'll be just fine once I put them in soil. Very satisfied with my order.
Awesome American Meadows!!!

This was a wonderful addition to my garden! It produced tons of blooms and was so beautiful! I looked forward to sitting in my garden and admiring this beautiful bush and the butterflies that it attracted!
Beautiful bush, Grows fast
By EMK211
from Putnam County, New York
I ordered this bush last year and received a small, but healthy plant. It's a year later and I now have a full, vibrantly colored, healthy butterfly bush with lots of blooms. Although the bush was initially small, it is a fast grower. I did nothing other than plant it. It survived a yucky Fall season that included Hurricane Sandy and an equally nasty New York Winter. I highly recommend this product, especially if you're a butterfly lover. American Meadows never fails with their products.

1st Year with the Peach Cobbler
By The Cat Whisperer
from Albany, Ohio
When my Peach Cobbler Butterfly Bush arrived in the mail from American Meadows in the late spring, I was underwhelmed. I received a small plant with withered leaves placed in a protective cardboard container. I followed the planting directions and slowly this butterfly bush began to sprout leaves and later blooms. I watered this bush on a daily basis through one of the fiercest SE Ohio summers, and I was rewarded by a small bush (maybe 3' tall) with a profusion of long panicles. The blooms are alittle washed out in color, somewhere between a pink-ish-orange, but the fragrance was lovely. I am wondering how this bush will handle winter, but I am prepared to mulch it well and hope for the best. I also bought the white version of this bush and I actually liked the blooms a little better. I am very pleased with the basic quality of these bushes and how quickly and carefully American Meadows shipped the plants to me. I'd certainly purchase more plants from American Meadows.
2. Plant as soon as you can. If your weather cooperates (above freezing), begin planting as soon as possible. If not, keep your Butterfly Bushes where they get some sun through a window, and keep them moist, not soggy.
3. As you set out your potted Butterfly Bushes, dig to loosen the soil around and below the actual spot, and then set the rooted plant at the same level if was growing in the pot.
4. Plant your Butterfly Bushes about 4-6' apart, depending on the variety.
5. When you remove the plant from the pot, do not pull on the leaves or stems. Squeeze the pot a little and the roots and soil will slide out for you.
6. Water well after planting, and continue to water at least every two weeks, depending on rainfall.
The magic of Buddleia, and why butterflies can't resist it. Butterfly Bush (Buddleia) is a shrub-like plant that looks sort of like a compact lilac, grows quickly and blooms in mid-summer. But the name tells you all about it: Butterflies just can't resist the flowers, and flock to the plants when they're in bloom.
It's been a sensation in American gardens for years, and no wonder. Butterfly bush is easy to grow, blooms profusely, and has that magical quality: Butterflies can't resist it.
Here's why: It's not just the pretty flowers that attract the butterflies, like so many other bright blooms. Buddleias emit a special honey-scented fragrance that lures butterflies like a moth to a flame, and then once there, they find the flowers super-rich in nectar.
A butterfly bush in the garden will often be seen with a mass of butterflies on the flowers, especially during hot sunny afternoons. Buddleias attract other insects too, like moths, and the reddish ones strongly attract hummingbirds. So it's more than a name; it's actually a botanical phenomenon.
Easy and quick to grow. Butterfly bushes are popular and hardy from Zone 5 south to Zone 9. In the colder zones, they die to the ground each year like a perennial plants, but in more southern regions, they are somewhat evergreen. In the warmer states, butterfly bushes often grow to 10 or 12 ft. high, and require pruning to keep them shapely. They're happy in almost any soil and prefer moist ground, but will also do well in dryer spots. They need plenty of sun, but will be fine with some shade in the warmer areas. All this tells you that this plant is a tough one, and should be easy to grow in your garden. A well-grown specimen can be a magnificent "fountain" of flowers, since the stems with heavy flower clusters tend to arch in all directions.
The colors and named varieties. You'll find pink, white, blue, and some very beautiful new bi-colors. Buddleia "Bicolor" created a sensation when it burst on the scene. It is one of the first with bi-colored blooms, often developing long clusters that range from bluish to raspberry to bright orange as you look from the tip to the base of the flower spike.
Some botanists think the basic white Butterfly Bush has the most potent lure for insects. That's "White Profusion" with it's very heavy flowerheads shown on the right.
A Butterfly Bush with pink, blue and white flowers on the same plant? Hmmm. If you've ever heard about this magical butterfly bush, I think I know why. During the 1990's a very well know perennial nursery, which shall remain nameless, began selling "a butterfly bush with three colors on the same plant." The offer was such a successful bonanza for them, they repeated it over and over in ad after ad. And hundreds of thousands of gardeners bought. Well, what they got was really three small seedlings of three different plants grouped into one pot—one white, one blue and one pink. It all worked well, since butterfly bushes grow so easily and quickly, it really did look like one leafy bush as it grew. But once the "bush" was up and blooming with all the colors, if you looked closely near the ground, you'd see three little trunks, not just one. The effect was definitely one handsome bush with blooms in all three colors, but it was simply three different bushes planted very close together.
New Butterfly Bushes to come? The genus Buddleia (or Buddleja to be correct) is a group of several wild species that are cultivated and hybridized for the plants we enjoy. Most are from China, but some have been imported from South America as well. The most popular is B. davidii, which was brought into England's Kew Gardens in the 1880's, and is the parent of all the well-known Butterfly Bushes. However, according to "The Butterfly Website", some naturalists are still seeking out unknown species of Buddleia on the slopes of the Himalayas.
Don't confuse the Butterfly Bush with Butterfly Weed. Some people mistakenly call another famous butterfly attracting plant "butterfly bush", but that's incorrect. "Butterfly Weed" is the common name of our famous flame-orange milkweed native wildflower, Asclepias tuberosa. It grows from Canada to Florida, and when happy in dry soils and full sun, can be a sensation of beauty. Unlike the more common milkweed, Butterfly Weed forms a multi-branched clump only about 2 feet tall. It's one of the few native wildflowers that are so beautiful, they've been taken into the garden with no "improvements." The only changes I've ever seen in garden catalogs for Butterfly Weed is the name. Some retailers simply can't bring themselves to use the dreaded "W" word in their catalogs. Sometimes butterfly weed is sold as "orange glory flower." I've also seen "orange butterfly flower". But any experienced plant person in the USA knows it's plain old, super-beautiful Butterfly Weed.

I haven't had a period in 5 months. I went to the Dr about a month ago after I started having hot flashes. She did the test to see if I was starting/going through menopaus and it came back positive. My question is, I started bleeding today and it feels like a period. Is this normal? Dr office closed today so I can't call them until Monday. Just a little worried something isn't right. Thanks for any input :) |
Follow-Up Postings:
Yes, unfortunately it is normal. I went without a period for 4 blessed months and my OBGYN wasn't impressed and told me that I would most likely get a period again eventually. She was right, I just got it again and have felt like hell ever since. She said it is normal to miss a month/few months and then to get it again. That is why they add "irregular periods" to the list of peri symptoms. Don't be too worried though since this is quite normal. |
"my OBGYN wasn't impressed" Was your doctor no impressed because you asked a question? booked an appointment? They are not Gods just professionals like everyone else. Don't ever let them intimidate you or give you an attitude. I could smack some doctors sometime for attitude. I hope this is not the case. If so, maybe you could find a new doctor a little more understanding. |
Ha! How did you know? Yea, she isn't real sympathetic at all about any of this. Last summer I told her that I was having major sleep problems, probably due to peri since i am 50, and she just giggled and said to take "Tylenol PM" and left it at that. |

The Denver Broncos open their post-season with a contest against the Baltimore Ravens at home. There's a lot of pressure on Peyton Manning on the Broncos. Not only are they favorites to reach the Super Bowl, the Broncos are also tasked with ensuring we never see Ray Lewis dance again. Don't let us down. For the love of humanity don't let us down.
Outside of Running Backs and Special Teams, the Ravens are outmatched. Peyton Manning is not a rookie QB making his first post-season start. Anquan Boldin and Dennis Pitta dominated a terrible Colts secondary last week. The Broncos secondary is a different story — they rank third in the league, allowing just 199.6 yards per game through the air. In their meeting on December 16th the Broncos trounced Baltimore 34-17. This isn't going to end well.
Broncos Offense | Ravens Defense | |
Total Yards P/Game | 398 (3rd) | 351 (17th) |
Passing Yards P/Game | 283 (5th) | 228 (17th) |
Rushing Yards P/Game | 115 (16th) | 123 (20th) |
Ravens Offense | Broncos Defense | |
Total Yards P/Game | 353 (16th) | 291 (2nd) |
Passing Yards P/Game | 234 (15th) | 200 (3rd) |
Rushing Yards P/Game | 119 (11th) | 91 (3rd) |
Thoughts on the game:
- Denver is dominant at home. During their six game home winning streak they've allowed 237.3 yards and 13.5 points per game. In their meeting during the regular season, the Broncos held Baltimore to 278 total yards — a number that was inflated thanks to two garbage time touchdowns. The Ravens went 1-12 on third downs and gained only two first downs on the ground. Domination.
- The Ravens made Andrew Luck's playoff debut a forgettable one. They held Luck to a 36% completion percentage when they rushed more than four defenders. On December 16th the Broncos sacked Joe Flacco three times for a loss of 32 yards. Flacco's QB rating was 76.5. If you're into QBR , he scored a paltry 0.4.
- Via ESPN Stats & Information, Flacco was 2-6 when the Broncos rushed more than four in that game–this included a game killing pick six to Chris Harris just before halftime. The Broncos defense made life hell for opposing offenses in the fourth quarter, holding QBs to a 1.5 total QBR.
- The Ravens scored 398 total points this year, good for an average of 24.9 per game which ranked 10th in the NFL. Their points differential was 54, placing them 11th in the league. With a plus nine, the Ravens ranked eighth in the takeaway/giveaway department.
- Knowshon Moreno did more than just hurdle Ed Reed in their week 15 match up, rushing for 115 yards on 21 carries. His 5.5 per carry average opened up the play action pass. Manning completed averaged 12.1 yards per attempt on play action passes against the Ravens. Look for Moreno to get a lot of action early in order to set this up on Saturday.
- If Peyton Manning wasn't the guy he appears to be this quote would be all sorts of awesome: "I think Ray Lewis knows how I feel about him and I think I'll share that with him at the appropriate time." "Hey Ray, I hate you." In a perfect world.
- The Ravens running game will need to be great. Bernard Pierce ran for 103 yards against the Colts, outshining Ray rice, who fumbled twice. Look for the pair to split carries behind hulking fullback Vonta Leach. The platitudes regarding keeping Peyton Manning off the field have been hammered to death, but the point remains apt.
- The Broncos put up a ton of points this year, averaging 30.1 per game. Their defense was just as good, allowing 18.1. They do, however, have some injury concerns heading into Saturday. Ryan Clady (undisclosed) and Tracy Porter (concussion) are questionable. Keep an eye on their status as game time approaches.
It's hard to see Baltimore emerging victorious at Mile High. The Broncos have them beat on both sides of the ball and beat the hell out of them in Baltimore. Pick Denver with confidence.

Boi-ing is a cream-to-powder concealer (which leans toward being creamier) and provides almost complete coverage. It blends on easily and layers well if you need to camouflage very dark circles, but won't last through the day unless it's set with powder, which can make the under-eye area look dry and cakey.
Benefit was developed by twins Jean Danielson and Jane Blackford, whose initial claim to fame was a stint as the Calgon twins back in 1960s television commercials. They opened their first cosmetics store, The Face Place, in San Francisco circa 1976, and then, perhaps recognizing the need for a name with more impact, The Face Place became Benefit in 1990. From there the line took off and expanded its presence beyond the Bay Area to include national department stores and, eventually, Sephora boutiques. Sephora's parent company, LVMH, purchased Benefit in late 1999, and, for the most part, has allowed the brand to stay true to the zany irreverence that put it on the map.
Fortunately the change hasn't eroded Benefit's makeup philosophy, which is outrageously fun, or its product arsenal centered on impossibly cute names and a lexicon that aims to make beauty enjoyable. Benefit single-handedly started the trend of selling makeup and skin-care products with ultra-cute appellations for less than ultra-fancy prices. It seems that in recent years, LVMH's influence may have trickled down to Benefit's marketing department, because most of the cute, attitude-based product descriptions have been tempered to more clearly communicate the products'... you guessed it, benefit. But that's a smart move given the number of products Benefit competes with in department stores and at Sephora.
Yet even with the more straightforward claims, most of these products simply can't do what they say they can. In almost every instance, the showcased ingredients are either present in itsy-bitsy amounts or the claims attributed to them are not even remotely true. Despite this, if you're in the mood for a fun experience and can manage to choose products wisely while enjoying the whimsy, Benefit deserves a look.

Benefit Makeup
It's refreshing to see a cosmetics line espouse fun and frivolity, but if product quality and performance aren't there to sustain the philosophy there's not much to discuss. Luckily, that's not the case with most of Benefit's makeup. As with most lines, there are enough missteps and problem products to shop carefully, but Benefit shines in several categories, including foundation, bronzing powder, blush, and shimmer products.
Benefit claims this concealer is "industrial strength." I decided to try it when the cosmetics associate told me it was Benefit's most effective concealer. When applying it on dark circles under my eyes, I find I still have to use several layers to get a good level of coverage and my dark circles are not that bad. It works fairly well on red areas but overall, the coverage is no better than other less expensive products I've tried. To me, it's not worth the price.
I love this product. It is so easy for my dark under eye circles when I'm in a hurry. It has a LOT of coverage and it's so easy to apply, without any extra powder! However I thought at 23 I looked 40, turns out it does cake in the creases and dry areas. If only it didn't happen, I'd be a lifetime user. Oh and I go through it way too fast so it's expensive for what you get.

I used my white cake recipe to make it into a lemon cake. I do not like the fruit cake flavors in the mixes, because to me it just tastes too much like the candy artificial flavoring than the fruit itself. I also needed a lighter lemon cake to pair with a lemon fruit filling and lemon buttercream. The cake turned out great and you can taste the real lemon which is what I wanted.Ingredients
- 1 box DH white cake mix (this is my brand preference) 1 box of lemon instant pudding mix (the small box) 1/2 tsp of pure lemon extract Zest of 1 lemon 1 cup of sour cream 4 eggs 1/3 cup of oil 1/2 cup of water (I squeezed the lemon to get all the juice and added water to make it 1/2 cup)
Mix cake mix, pudding, water/lemon juice mix, oil, sour cream, eggs, extract and zest for 30 seconds on low and 2 minutes on medium. Bake as you normally would. I like to bake my cakes at 325.

Students in the Niagara Wheatfield Junior and Senior High Schools were evacuated to the Sanborn Fire Hall (right) shortly before 9 am Monday, and the Niagara County Sheriff's Department has said they are investigating an incident at the school.
The Niagara Falls district released a statement saying a bomb threat was received by both schools.
"The phone call was very short in nature. It didn't give us a lot of information and the credibility of it was somewhat questionable," said Niagara County Sheriff's Department Chief Deputy Steven Preisch. The call was received by 911 dispatchers at 7:55AM.
"The school worked with investigators from the Niagara County Sheriff's Dept. and the Niagara Falls Police Department. Normal lockdown procedures were followed and all necessary precautions were taken," according to a statement from school officials.
Other than to confirm that they were investigating an incident, Niagara county Sheriffs department did not initially describe the nature of their effort-- but Sheriff James Voutour later tweeted that the search at the Niagara Wheatfield school was "progressing well."
The search for an explosive ended at 11:20AM, when the Niagara County Sheriff's department announced that no explosives were found. Niagara Wheatfield students then began to make their way back in to school where the rest of the day was planned to go on as normal, but with extra police presence. Parents at Niagara Wheatfield do have the option of picking up their children from the school if they don't want them to spend the remainder of the day there.
Preisch says that the department is following leads that may help them find the person who made the 911 call. Priesch said that bomb threat calls are becoming increasingly unpopular because of caller ID and other technology that makes it easy to trace phone calls.
Sheriff's Dept. officials said the evacuations were undertaken as a precaution, and school officials tell WBEN that students will be returned to the regular classrooms once the all clear is given.
State police and border patrol officers could be seen at the Niagara Wheatfield campus assisting in the investigation.
Here's the statement from the Niagara Falls School District.
At 8:34 a.m. Niagara Falls High School went into a precautionary lockdown as a result of an anonymous call received by both Niagara Falls High School and Niagara Wheatfield. The school worked with investigators from the Niagara County Sheriff's Department and the Niagara Falls Police Department. Normal lockdown procedures were followed and all necessary precautions were taken to ensure student safety. there was no intruder in the school. Students and staff preformed in an exemplary manner and the school is returning to its regularly scheduled school day activities. |

Hello all - Twelve years or so ago I planted a hedge of M. giganteus about thirty feet long directly under my telephone and cable lines that run overhead parallel along the side of the street. |
Follow-Up Postings:
After thinking about this the only way to cut the grass down would be to find someone with a brush hog and take it down with that. A little raking and cleaning, then burn the area off. This spring when it has grown about 1' tall I will hit it with an herbicide. Just needed to think this project out before doing something dumb. |
30 feet long? Would take many long hours to dig out. It doesn't make a big clump, just lots of annoying little clumps of root tuber like growths. Roundup would be simpler, hopefully kill it and have the roots rot in the ground. As for the top, don't you cut it down every year before it grows again in spring? Probably really big stand. I just cut Miscanthus down and put in the yard waste. I suppose you can do whatever you think you can actually accomplish. |
Thanks for the imput - this grass has grown so long and so well for me that it has made clumps that are at least 6' across at the base (width) and it has grown itself out, making doughnut shaped clumps that are kind of dead in the center. It is still way too thick and dense to cut or dig by hand. For many years I sawed it down with a chainsaw, using my saw as a weedeater. For the last few years I haven't cut down the previous season's growth (chainsaw isn't up to it anymore) it looks bad to me, with new green growth growing up through the dead and dry stuff during the growing season. It is a beautiful grass but one of its major drawbacks to me is that it sheds all of its leaves which get blown all over the place in the winter by the wind. If I had one clump of the grass it wouldn't be such a big deal but a hedge of it is really messy. I want to replace it with something that doesn't need yearly maintenance - probably flowering shrubs. Thanks again. |
1. You might find it cheaper to rent a chainsaw or gas-powered hedge trimmer, than to hire someone with a brush hog. Whichever way you cut it down, bundle the plants first, with strong twine. Separate the foliage into manageable-sized clumps. It'll make cleanup much easier. 2. When the time comes to use Roundup, cut the grass down again before soaking it. The Roundup will get to the root system faster than being absorbed by foliage. Soak it twice, a few days apart. Use the strongest concentration you can. |
I have taken some of my old grasses down by burning them,I have several large Miscanuthus that I will be burning out this year. The centers are starting to show that they need divided and to be truthful I just can't divide them like I use too, I have probably close to 15 and the one's that need divided I plan to just burn down this year, if you build a hot enough fire and let the rizone get hot enough and keep the fire hot the grass will not come back, now don't do this with them all at the same time you will have the fire department on your case.. I always burn mine but the one's that I want to keep I have a garden hose ready to put out the fire as soon as the tops are burned, its like puff and they are gonein seconds, if the rizone burns it will kill it the entire plant. I plan to put a few sticks of fire wood on some of mine and just let them burn and smolder for a couple hrs.Be careful and don't burn down something important, know what i mean? |
I don't mean to hijack this thread, but sandyl if I could ask for a bit of clarification. I was thinking that I would cut it down as close as possible, then soak well with charcoal starter fluid and build a nice little "campfire" on it for a few hours. Does that sound like it would work? I just hate the thought of that much herbicide because it is also next to my vegetable garden. TYIA Steve |

I think building a fire over the crown of the plant might be an idea that would work. Interesting ...... A possible alternative: If grasses are popular in your area maybe you could have a FREE 'dig your own day'. There might be enough takers to get rid of at least part of your 'hedge row'. When I was first starting out with grasses I would have been DELIGHTED to have been able to dig a few free clumps! |
Ohhh, achnatherum, I like that even better. We have something here called Freecycle, where you can post on their web site free stuff you want to get rid of and how people can get it. I could have a dig day and get rid of all kinds of stuff!! Thanks for the idea. Steve |
- Posted by achnatherum z4or3 Ontario (My Page) on Sat, Mar 16, 13 at 13:39
I would LOVE to hear how this works out for you! I typically dig out plants that I don't want, shove them in grocery bags, write plant name & colour on bag with magic marker, wheel them all out to the end of the driveway & stick a 'Free plants' sign next to them and wait - often nothing moves until dusk - people don't like to be seen :o) So far, next morning it is usually all gone! The whole process of giving plants away or even selling them for a nominal sum is kinda fun AND much better than having to use an herbicide. |

wow .. If I lived in your area , I would come and dig some out too. They make such a good back drop for different areas( or nosy neighbors ) |

Romeo and Juliet, Acts 1 and 2
This lesson may be adapted for use with other plays.
In this lesson, students are asked to hypothesize about what characters are thinking, feeling, and doing in the unscripted intervals between the scenes of Romeo and Juliet. They will create and perform one of these scenes for the class.
This lesson will take at least two class periods. For a shorter lesson, ask students to do only one of the two writing assignments.
Folger edition of Romeo and Juliet Available in Folger print edition and Folger Digital Texts
1. After reading the play, return to 1.5, in which Lord Capulet berates Tybalt for wishing to begin a brawl with Romeo at the Capulet ball. In a full group discussion, review what we know of Tybalt's actions and words after the ball. We know, for instance, that Tybalt sends Romeo a letter of challenge.
2. Divide students into groups of three to five and ask them to think about Tybalt's thoughts and actions between the end of the Capulet celebration and his reappearance in 3.1. Ask them to find textual evidence for their opinions, especially from 1.5 and 3.1.
3. Ask each group of students to write the letter that Tybalt sends to Romeo. What kind of language does he use? How cordial or direct is he?
4. Now ask students to think more specifically about Tybalt's actions while he is off stage between 1.5 and 3.1. Who is with him? What does he say to those people? What is his plan for the confrontation? Ask each group to write and rehearse a brief scene to show us what Tybalt is doing during this time.
5. Ask each group to read its letter and perform its scene for the class. Ask them to discuss the reasons for the choices that they have made, including any ideas they may have discussed but ultimately rejected.
6. Conclude with a discussion of the similarities and differences between the scenes. What can students conclude about the character of Tybalt? What can they conclude about Shakespeare's reasons for keeping these scenes off stage?

How much clearance is allowed or required around ceiling boxes?
I have several 4" metal octagonal boxes to install. I have hand-sawed holes and usually make them uneven. A hole saw would be neater and cleaner. Should I use a 4" diameter saw or a bit larger? |
Follow-Up Postings:
- Posted by bus_driver (My Page) on Wed, Jan 4, 12 at 7:17
Assuming that the ceiling is drywall, no gap larger than 3mm is permitted. The choices include the hole saw and then patching or cutting a precise hole initially. I prefer the precise hole and make a template from thin plywood for marking the holes. |
A Rotozip with a piloted bit can be run around the outside of the box carefully to cut an opening. Unless the box is installed proud of the joists by the drywall thickness and extender is needed. |
- Posted by ronnatalie (My Page) on Wed, Jan 4, 12 at 13:06
I think he's talking about old work here. I do a pretty good job just tracing around the box with a pencil and using a rotozip (Ok, not a real rotozip but my cordless dewalt rotary tool) to cut the hole freehand. |
- Posted by measure_twice (My Page) on Thu, Jan 5, 12 at 9:43
Brickeyee, you have helped me many times. That suggested a technique but did not answer the essential question of clearance. Again, if I use a hole saw, and there is 1/4" gap along the flats of the octagonal j box, is that 1/4" gap allowed? I am installing new work through ceiling wallboard, 4" octagonal metal j-boxes and blocking sufficient for ceiling fans. Let me add I am as ham-handed with a rotozip as a keyhole saw. The R-zip gets away from me and it also makes tremendous amounts of dust. I look like a clown in whiteface and the room looks like it was dusted for fingerprints. If I must keep a very small gap I will wrestle with the Rotozip but a hole saw would zing through the 4 or 5 holes needed. |
- Posted by bus_driver (My Page) on Thu, Jan 5, 12 at 11:57
What is the objection to using a hand-powered drywall saw? A little work? Your clearance question was clearly answered. 3mm is about 1/8". |
- Posted by ronnatalie (My Page) on Thu, Jan 5, 12 at 12:13
The other tool I've started to use of late is a Milwaukee hackzall. It's essentially a very small battery powered recip saw. Use it like you'd use one of those "steak knife" style drywall saws but with less effort. |
The NEC is 3 mm, or 1/8 inch from the box to the surface material. Anything larger needs to be filled. It is relatively easy to cut accurately on new work in drywall, a little harder in old work, and harder in plaster (especially on wood or metal lathe). One old work a rotary zip cutter works very well on drywall nad even plaster on gypsum lathe. I routinely just snap off the tip of the blades and use the still sharp remainder for other work. I have "Klein Tool 702 Compass Saw Handle, Magic-Slot" and buy blades in bulk. Easysand20 is excellent for filing the occasional oversize hole edges. |
- Posted by measure_twice (My Page) on Sat, Jan 7, 12 at 21:09
(I thought I had posted this, but I don't see it so ...) Bus driver, I mis-read your post. Thank you - sometimes I need stuff pointed out. Brickeye, thanks for the extra tips. The current surfaces are gypsum board, some with heavy texture. I have sawn through all types of gypsum surfaces and yep, plaster-and-wood-lath is the most unknown. I never know if the lath will catch on the teeth and pull out more plaster, or something even more amusing. I will get a bit of easysand20 for errors. |

Take a good look at those two faces above. That beautiful model is rocking Smashbox's "Glambox," a full collection of makeup that's supposed to allow you to complete both a "sultry" and a "sweet" look, as pictured above. I am always a little wary of do-it-yourself kits that claim you can look just like a model. After all, we're all very aware of how much Photoshopping goes into selling us every product under the sun.

Happy Hunting for Easter Eggs!
The coloring of eggs reminds us that the cold season is now over and it is time to enjoy the blossoming of flowers. The colorful Easter Egg represents the birth of Spring as shown in several different cultures. In the Persian culture, coloring and dying of the eggs is a way to celebrate the holiday known as Nowrooz. Nowrooz is the celebration of the New Year for the Persians which happens to fall on the Spring equinox and has been taking place for the past 2,500 years. There are preserved sculptures that contain pictures of these hand painted eggs that were given to the Persian king. The eggs were also used in the form of a game where the eggs would be hidden so that the one who found the most eggs would win a prize. Similarly, today, egg hunts are part of the Easter celebration especially for children. Plastic eggs containing candy and other toys are be hidden the night before all over the yard so that on Easter morning, the children can excitedly go around and find as many eggs as they can. Don't forget to include the grand prize, our Golden Egg Hunt Trophy, which will quickly become a family tradition.
The lucky person to find the Golden Egg not only wins the prize inside (so make it a good one!) but also gets to write his/her name and year on it and gets to gloat until next year! Have Easter baskets or pails ready for the kids to collect their eggs and count their finding afterwards!

ITunes Match Beta Opens Rather Quietly
ITunes Match service, which is to be launched shortly, has come out with its Beta version. Apple has rather quietly released the Beta version in order to accommodate additional developers of apps. This new version is scheduled to be launched this fall. This is, however, not the first release of the service. Previously, the service was opened for a short while in August. It was only open for a few days before closing.
Apple Will Start Trial Of Its Next Generation iPad3 This Coming October
The company Apple are now thinking for the trial production of their next generation iPad on this coming October, according to the Wall Street Journal.
With the sequence to the fact the paper sources have stated that Apple has already gathered the key components of this eventual iPad 3, which they have also planned to reached to their retail stores in the early 2012. But before that they have declared they have planned for its release at the holyday season of 2012.
Steve jobs might launch the most awaited iPad3 in September
You must have seen the iPad 2 which was launched in March, this year. Now there are rumours that apple is going to launch iPad 3 in September, this year. Would Steve Jobs really launch two iPads in the same year? This question is raised in almost everyone's mind and people are in dilemma. If we consider the previous reports regarding iPad 3, the expected arrival of the product was in March or April 2012. As you all know that apple iPad is an established gadget and it has a proper official website for updates regarding the launch of any new gadget. But, still we believe in these rumours which sometimes play an important role in knowing about new products.
Iphone and Ipad Now with Real Drums
Iphone, which offers more than 250,000 apps in its app stores, has now launched a new app called Real Drums 4.0. This app is compatible with iPod and iphone touch models. This new app is supposed to provide the real drumming experience in the gadget. With a whole set of drums that are easy to set up and sound applications that can be programmed to any kind of drum beat, this app gives a good sound experience. Nevertheless, the success of the app depends on how well the app sounds on the already weak sound system of iphone. Among the various defects that iphone customers have been complaining about, the poor sound system has been the major one.

TUCSON - Ralph Mears boards the bus everyday and brings his walker along for the ride.
"It's pretty easy, some buses have the ramps and some have the lifts where the stairs come out," Mears says.
But for new riders with disabilities, or senior citizens, the thought of boarding the bus can be a hassle, even intimidating. "Imagine if you're in a mobility device such as a power wheel chair, or maybe you use a cane," says Michele Joseph of Sun Tran.
The START program, which stands for Sun Tran Accessible Riding Training, gives those riders tips to ease their anxiety. "Once you learn it's very easy," Joseph says. "We have a lot of people that rely on our system every day, we have about 70,000 trips."
The training sessions go over how to understand route maps and schedules, trip planning, transfers, how to pay a fare and how to use Sun Tran's website.
People who attend will also get a first-hand experience riding the bus. "We bring out a driver, a customer service representative and a bus to the training location and after the people go through the class, they can step on the bus and learn how to board and pay their fare," Joseph says.
A training session will be held Thursday, November 8, from 10am to noon at the Sun Van Service Area at 3401 E. Ajo Way.
For specific Sun Tran bus information and trip planning assistance, consult the Sun Tran's Ride Guide, visit www.suntran.com, or call Sun Tran's Customer Service Center at (520) 792-9222 (for persons with hearing and speech impairments with TDD equipment, call 520-628-1565). The Customer Service Center is open weekdays from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. and weekends from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Roesmarie could be right... parkinsonii is a possibility, but it could also be a short spined form of hahniana, or even formosa, or even chionocephala... the pic is a bit blurred so it's not easy to make out the spine count etc. Has it flowered? if so what colour? Cheers, CP. |
- Posted by shrubs_n_bulbs z8/9 UK (My Page) on Mon, Nov 7, 05 at 12:08
I don't think its M. parkinsonii, partly because it isn't exactly a common box store type plant, and partly because the central spines look too short. There's perhaps half a dozen species it might be, I just can't tell from the blurred piccie. A side shot is sometimes helpful as well it shows the mature areoles better, and the overall body shape. |

Despite being a country with a population of over four million, Laos remains unknown to many. Located below China, in between Thailand and Vietnam and right above Cambodia, the serene and majestic landscape is reflected in the tranquility of the culture and people. However, between April 13th and 15th, when Laotians celebrate their New Year, also known as "bee mai," everything changes.
If you have an especially difficult time with your beauty regimen during the summertime, here are 13 quick tips to help you coast through the hottest months of the year.
1) HAVE A GOOD FOUNDATION Along with a season change, I recommend that you adjust the color and texture of your foundation accordingly. Warm-weather foundations tend to have sheerer textures and are often deeper in tone, while lighter shades offering heavier coverage are often preferred in cold-weather months.

Daisy Khan speaks on MLK Jr. at interfaith event
PHILADELPHIA,PA–Prominent Muslim activist Daisy Khan spoke on the inspiration she had derived from Martin Luther King Jr.'s example in the recent controversy related to an Islamic Center planned near Ground Zero. She was speaking at Center City's Arch Street Presbyterian Church as part of an interfaith celebration of King's life and work, the Inquirer reported. This 28th annual event was sponsored by the Neighborhood Interfaith Movement, a Mount Airy-based coalition of 58 Jewish, Christian, Muslim and Unitarian congregations.
"He gave us strength," Khan said. "For us, the struggle is one of acceptance, of being treated as equals." Khan and her husband, Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf, are the founders of the American Society for Muslim Advancement, which seeks to build the Islamic center.
"I know a day will come when Islam will be fully accepted as an American religion," she said. "A day will come when an entire community is not blamed for the actions of a few . . . A day will come when a woman in a scarf and a man in a beard will not strike fear in somebody's heart."
Madina Ali bags Big East honor award
MORGANTOWN, WV–Madina Ali of West Virginia University's women's basketball team has bagged her third BIG EAST honor roll award of the season as announced by the league office this week, according to news reports.
Ali has been credited with overturning the fortunes of the Mountaineers from a season's first loss last week at Marquette. "Ali led the Mountaineers in bouncing back from the loss with her seventh double-double this season as she put up a career-high 32 points and pulled down 10 rebounds against Syracuse. The win extended West Virginia's home court streak to 29 games. It was the first 30-point game of Ali's career and the seventh time she led WVU in scoring this season," the MSN Sports Net reported.
"At forward, Ali was 10-for-19 from the field, shooting 52.6 percent, including a 3-pointer, two blocks, two steals and an assist against the Orange. She also shot 73.3 percent from the free throw line, allowing WVU another 13 points."
Aid agencies realize the need for religious dietary accommodation
NASHVILLE, TN–When disaster strikes the normal concerns like religious dietary needs are pushed aside. But aid organizations are now recognizing that in such trying circumstances it would be a good idea to be sensitive. The Red Cross organization realized the diversity of Middle Tennessee area last year when the devastating floods forced many residents to seek shelter. It recognized that the area was home to Muslims, Jews, and Hindus who have their own dietary codes.
"In a disaster, there are very limited resources, but we try to plan menus to accommodate as best as we can," said Joel Sullivan, CEO of the local chapter of the American Red Cross, which serves 17 counties surrounding Nashville, told the Tennessean. "We learned during the flood that there are dietary needs out there that there wasn't a demand for in this area before."
In the months after the flood, staff at the Red Cross have been calling community leaders to get advice on how they could have better responded.
There are approximately 25,000 Muslims living in Middle Tennessee.
New trends in Halal retailing in North America
The halal retail market in North America is brimming with opportunities and creative retailers are experimenting in numerous ways of capitalizing it. An often overlooked but growing trend is the emergence of large super-market style stores which are open until late night or for twenty four hours. Despite facing a slew of hurdles these businesses have grown and expanded.
The New York Times in its January 7th edition carried a report about the transformation of Hill Side in Queens after a number of new businesses propped up. Among these is the giant 24 hr Super Halal Meat. It sells fresh meat along with a whole array of groceries from South Asia and the Middle East. When it opened last year it was picketed by some residents over alleged health safety and traffic concerns. But the owners eventually were able to convince everyone after more than 50 inspections by city officials didn't find any major violations.
In Chicago the Nayab Mart on the famed Devon Avenue has been in operation for more than a decade. It is also open 24 hrs and specializes in South Asian groceries in addition to halal meat.
In Toronto Iqbal Foods has become a landmark and a hit not only with Muslims but also non-Muslim consumers. Open until midnight it attracts customers from throughout the Greater Toronto Area and beyond.
Unlike the Queens case, Nayab and Iqbal Foods have faced little opposition because the areas in which they opened were already dominated by the immigrant population. Devon Avenue is a well known South Asian hub. Thorncliffe Park, where Iqbal is located, is a dense neighborhood with highrises populated mainly by Muslims.

An exhibition featuring the
Albert H. Small Declaration of Independence Collection
at the Albert and Shirley Small Special Collections Library
In response to the competing printings, Secretary of State John Quincy Adams commissioned William J. Stone to produce an official facsimile. In order to capture the exact image of the officially inscribed, or engrossed, Declaration, Stone likely moistened its surface in order to transfer some of the ink from the original onto his copper plate. This would help explain the poor condition of the engrossed Declaration now at the National Archives. In 1823, the State Department printed two hundred of Stone's engravings on parchment. A congressional resolution specified the distribution of these documents; on display is one of the two copies presented to the Marquis de Lafayette.
In the years since the Revolution, reform and political groups from abolitionists and secessionists to labor unions and civil rights activists have used the words of the Declaration to support their causes. The collection includes examples of these reinterpretations of the Declaration of Independence, illustrating its lasting impact on American society.

I am having some trouble getting a nice cut with my STX38 and have replaced the blades already. Now I figure it's probably time to level the deck but dont have the owners manual. Just wondering if anyone can tell me the correct procedure for adjusting the gauge wheels to adjust the deck. I see the diagram on the deck by the left gauge wheel but dont know what the numbers mean in conjunction with the numbers on the deck level handle. Thanks |
Follow-Up Postings:
In my opinion you will get a nicer cut with the gage wheels up, but low enough to protect the deck- rather than using it as a floating deck. I guess it also depends what you are looking for and look to correct. To me, it isn't important that the actual height of cut matches the #s on the handle. What kind of QOC issues are you trying to correct? Uneven side to side issues can often be corrected by basic leveling. Ensure the blades are running true, tire pressure even end then level side to side using a small rule or the handy JD leveling gauge. With the blades straight across, measure from the tip below the cutting edge to that nice level concrete garage floor it's parked on. You will see the adjuster from where the deck hangs. make them even as possible w/o sweating to get that last 1/8 of an inch! Front to rear pitch is useful to negate stragglers and overall rough looking cuts. Commonly set lower in the front 1/4 - 3/4 inch. Remember where you started on this one in case you don't like the results from changing it. Good luck! |

Thanks for the info. I am just getting an overall rough cut so I will try to lower the front of the deck. I am assuming that this is done just with the 2 hangers from the front of the deck to the frame? I also seem to be getting a little bit of a line of grass left uncut right in the middle of the 2 blades, and new blades didnt correct it. |

I like the song alot and I am not a big fan of hers. The video was ok...just looks like a copy cat with the violence from rianna's song about killing a guy...what's going on with all this violence now in the womens songs? I expect it in the rapper's songs.

On May 7, Lady Antebellum will release its fourth studio album, Golden – and the title track, a honey-soaked love letter, was the last song Charles Kelley, Hillary Scott, and Dave Haywood wrote for the record.
They invited Eric Pasley, a fellow Nashville artist and songwriter (Eli Young Band's "Even if it Breaks Your Heart," Love and Theft's "Angel Eyes") to write with them at Kelley's home. After a couple false starts on other ideas, Kelley suggested they begin again from scratch: "I said, 'Just start playing, and I'm gonna start mumbling some words over these melodies, and the song just started pouring out," he says. "We probably wrote it in a couple of hours over a bottle of wine and delivery pizza. I think the good ones usually come fast like that. 'Need You Now' we wrote really quick. Once you find the inspiration" — in this case, their spouses and Scott's new baby — "everybody's just throwing out ideas."

Opioid Use Trajectories and HIV Risk Among Young Adults in OhioThe non-medical use of pharmaceutical opioids is a growing public health problem throughout the United States. The purpose of this National Institute on Drug Abuse-funded natural history study is to describe trajectories of non-prescribed pharmaceutical opioid use and identify the factors associated with the development of DSM-IV abuse or dependence on pharmaceutical opioids (and transition to heroin use) among young users (NIH grant #R01DA023577-05). The specific aims are to:
Using Respondent-Driven Sampling, 400 young adults who misuse pharmaceutical opioids will be recruited to participate in structured interviews every 6 months after baseline for 3 years. The quantitative data will be complemented with longitudinal ethnographic interviews. In addition to describing changes in pharmaceutical and other drug use over time and identifying the characteristics associated with transition to abuse and/or dependence, the study will focus on the relationship between drug use and HIV/HCV sex risk behaviors as well as injection risk among those who transition to injection, The proposed study is significant because illicit use of pharmaceutical opioids is increasing, and the factors associated with the development of abuse and dependence are unknown. The findings from this study will fill this gap. The findings will also help inform the development of interventions to address the problems associated with illicit pharmaceutical opioid use, abuse, and dependence.

I've never done a solo trip. However, I do know there are some restaurants where you can eat at a bar so you at least won't be at a table by yourself. Though....I think these are the signature dining places.
DH and I dined at Flying Fish's bar a few weeks ago. We chatted with a really friendly bar tender. He gave me the leftovers of someone else's daquiri after he poured them their glass. The man next to me was by himself, but kept to himself so I didn't try to engage him in conversation.

I have stamped before. I would like to make packages of cards to give as gifts for the holiday's. How difficult is it to stamp, and where is the best place to get supplies, including blank cards? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Use card stock to make you own & save a bundle! 1 piece of card stock makes 2 note cards. Find a rubber stamping store near you & get some really good stuff & some ideas. Then go to Michaels and get stuff to "fill in". Try the net; do a Google search using "rubber stamp" in the subject line. For specific questions, come back here; there are plenty of great folks here happy to help out. Target also sells the "Hot Hues" line of blank note cards that have an embossed frame to them. Plenty of different colors. Stamping ink shows much better on the lighter ones. Go nuts with embellishments: sequins as flower pettals, beads, wire, hole punches, etc. Let us know how you make out. |
- Posted by livvyandbella (My Page) on Sat, Jul 26, 03 at 6:06
Just reading my message..correction..I have never stamped before. Thank you for your advice, and where to find cards..off to Target to begin. Do you buy your stamping supplies at Michaels? I don't know of a store that just has stamping. |
Target doesn't have much of anything and certainly no bargains on stamping stuff. Michael's or Hobby Lobby is your bet bet if there is no Stamping store around. |
