Any recommendations? I recently got a spice zee and was contemplating a flavor queen, but am not sure about that one. |
Follow-Up Postings:
I haven't been impressed with Flavor Queen compared to some other pluots. I am growing in a greenhouse in TX so YMMV. My evaluations are in writeup linked below. |

I'm still waiting for my Nectaplum to fruit,but I've tried Flavor King and Flavor Grenade Pluots and I recommend both.Also Flavor Supreme. There are so many.Fruitnut likes the Honey series Nectarines. It also depends on your tastes. Brady |
Here's what I would do: I would plant a 'Double Delight' nectarine which looks stunning in bloom, and should ripen shortly before 'Spice Zee' and possibly overlap a bit. And I would plant a 'Flavor King' pluot, and add a 'Burgundy' plum for better pollination. Burgundy will overlap SZ, but hold really well, and FK should start ripening shortly after 'Spice Zee'. By bookending your SZ with the above selections, you will have a pretty steady harvest of outstanding fresh fruit through Summer. The link below will give you relative ripening windows, but not precise timings, for most of what DWN carries. |

Thanks for all the awesome advice. My spice zee didn't have many blooms this year, although it's already 2 person tall? Not sure how long this tree takes to reach its max potential. I tried to find flavor king but i think most nurseries get flavor queen instead because they said flavor king doesn't do as well? odd. @mrclint does the double delight nectarine taste a lot better than the typical nectarine? |
cyh527, the typical nectarine is pretty dang good in my book! That said, DD is much better than average and is a taste test winner at DWN. Regrettably, I had to remove mine as the location was less than optimal. I need to check on its patent status and perhaps graft it onto 'Goldmine.' |
Just a bit of a warning...Dave Wilson sells some great trees. However, several of his "low chill" varieties are NOT really low chill for SoCal (under 350 hrs or so). Many of us have learned the hard way. Consider this...and "talk" to people who have first hand experience. |
fireduck, curious which DWN low-chill varieties did not turn out to be so for you? |
Serious? I am in socal too so I would like recommendations that are really low chill. Where do you guys buy your DWN varieties? I can't find them at most places. |
Try these charts: * Tom's Picks - Winners for the Low-Chill Southwest * L.E. Cooke: SUGGESTED VARIETIES - FRUIT TREES Check for a local retail nursery. I'm in the San Fernando Valley and get DWN trees from Green Arrow, Green Thumb, Armstrong or Sperling Nursery. All locations have pro nurserymen on site to answer any questions. Best to shop for bare root trees in early January. |
I found a non-big box nursery and they sell them (15 gals at 89.99 and up) Are armstrong or green thumb nurseries cheaper? |
Hard to say for sure. All bets are off regarding price outside of bare root season. You may need to call around or price shop in-store. |
Over the years I have axed several so-called low chill trees...and found out many other people have done the same thing with theirs. I would not criticize a variety just because there was an exceptionally warm winter or two...that would not be fair. Pettingill Apple, Autumn Royal Apricot, and Katy Apricot were the worst and most widely unacceptable producers by me and many other growers. There are some that the jury is still out on, too. I feel a grower needs to give fruit trees a fair shake to produce before condemning them. Obviously, the tree that requires spurs to form fruit (like apple, pear, plum, etc) need a couple of additional years to judge. Keep in mind...people that have just 100 more hours of chill than you may have different results. My area averages around 350 hours. |
Yeah, nurseries sell these "low-chill" varieties that just do not work with my climate. How can you tell if a "low-chill" tree will work with your climate? They always list the chill hours at a range. |
fireduck, I would view those sort of things as your mileage may vary, but certainly worth noting. I wasn't able to find Autumn Royal listed on the DWN site. |
Nurseries sell trees that don't work all over the country. So low chill areas aren't being picked on. Further in Socal there are numerous microclimates. What works in one spot might not a half mile away. I discard about 3/4 of the varieties I try and only really like even less than that. It's part of the cost of doing business unless you're really easy to please. |
cyh....the list of good ones is pretty long, but I will give you some of my favorites that consistently produce great fruit in SoCal. I have grown these for many years. Plum: Santa Rosa and Satsuma (need pollinizer). Peach: Eva's Pride, August Pride, May Pride (early). Apple: Anna. Other people will pipe in and give their views...and that advice might be good. There are just so many that are marginal producers...and many variables. If you are young and have space/time...trying growing some of the new stuff like pluots or apriums. They might be fun. I am now concentrating mainly on my 20 avocado trees (16 varieties), and my container veges. |
Avocado trees don't do well here, they start blackening on the top or on some branches? Not sure why. I water them plenty? |
Hi All! I recently acquired a spice zee, beauty plum, dapple dandy. I already have burgundy, santa rosa, green gage, and maribelle. Can't seem to find a flavor queen anywhere. Anyone familiar with the minnie royal or the royal lee cherries? are they even worth growing other than the taritan cherry? Any suggestions for heavy producers? |
I have a Minnie Royal/ Royal Lee pair in a raised bed that went in earlier this year. Fingers crossed. There is actually a commercial variety of low chill cherries that I would LOVE to get my hands on but they sell only to commercial growers. They are known as the "little darlings," Royal Edie and Royal Helen. They fruit later than Minnie/Lee. I have not tasted any of these myself. I'm hoping to have five or six raised beds with 4 in 1 hole. I'm still collecting the trees, but by January should have everything. 4 "Royal" low chill cherries (Minnie/Lee, Edie/Helen) 4 Interspecifics, most likely: A single Weeping Santa Rosa 4 Plums and friends: 4 Nectarines and friends: 4 Peaches Maybe a avacado hole... |
I tried Royal Edie and Royal Helen. Both have large fruit but didn't taste good here, a sulfurous taste. Also I'm thinking they aren't low chill. They are other cherries that are low chill but I haven't tried any. Have tried Sweet Treat and Bella Gold. Neither were worth growing but at least Sweet Treat is very low chilling according to reports I've heard. |
Darn Fruitnut. That is disappointing. I bought some pluerries this week at farmers market. I liked them but I can never be sure its the same thing. I had taken Bella gold off my list but bought one today as an impulse buy at Armstrong. It was on sale. I may regret that. |
Hopefully you'll have better luck with my rejects. I'm awfully picky. You should add an Arctic Star nectarine. It's the best fruit I grow that I'm sure is really low chill. It's better than Snow Queen and slightly earlier. But Snow Queen was very good this yr at 26 brix. |

The single woman society
The Virginia governor's race was yet another example of the massive voting gap in a huge demographic: single people, particularly single women. According to exit polls, Republican Ken Cuccinelli won handily on the "hard" issues facing Virginia voters, and won most other demographic slices, but Democrat Terry McAuliffe won big with single people, crushing Cuccinelli by nearly fifty points among single women. A similar dynamic could be | Read More »

I have been struggling with getting my laundry clean for years now ever since we got soft water, and I'm at the end of my rope. If I use too much soap my clothes come out dingy and not clean, if I use too little they don't clean, and I can't figure out the perfect storm of soap to water that will consistently get my clothes clean. HELP! I use Dr. Bronner's castile soap, and it has worked for years before, even when I used hard water. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Doing some quick research online... Softened water does NOT work best with SOAP based cleaning products. You need a true DETERGENT. You can try Tide Vivid (Powder), or All, Wisk, Cheer, Gain. Some people say powders are better some like liquid, you'll have to experiment and see what works best for you. Use the recommended dose per load. Softened water does NOT need more detergent and you may be able to use a little less. Adjust your dosage and see what works for you. If you use liquid bleach try NOT using it and see if things brighten up. |

You are using Dr. Bronner's for laundry? No wonder you're having a problem. When soap sees hardness, it forms sticky clumps. If there is a lot of hardness in the water, those clumps are more likely to stick together. They may stick to the tub (like a bathtub ring) or to the clothes, but a fair amount gets rinsed away. When clothes are dirty, a large portion of the "dirt" consists of the same constituents that cause hardness in water. When those items are stuck in your fabric, and your water is soft, the soap forms those sticky clumps right in your fabric and your fabrics start to look dingy. Even that would be okay, if you had some nice complexing agents to keep dirt suspended in the water AND a pH adjuster to bring pH up into the basic range where soap or detergent will work best. Dr. Bronner's doesn't have those things. Additionally, Dr. Bronner's has some free oils, which are great for your skin, but not for your clothing. |
I agree with what aliceinwonderland_id said above. Soaps are not the same thing as a detergent. I recommend that you use a good detergent. I can always, with much confidence, recommend powdered Tide as a standard detergent. The dingy-ness that you are describing is leftover soap buildup in your laundry. Years and years of un-rinsed soap is lingering in your clothes. Soap never completely rinses away. Over time, clothes appear gray, dull, probably less absorbent, and possibly even a little stinky. Detergents will not cause this, unless you are severely under/overdosing. All soaps will do this, including the much loathed "homemade laundry detergent" fad. It is possible to reverse the effects of all of this. However, it will take lots of hot water, time, and water softening agents to strip it all out of the fabric at once. But even simply switching to a powdered detergent will probably make an immediate difference, and then clothes will eventually look normal again. I might add that hot water is always the best option for getting completely clean clothes, regardless of water softness. Hope this helps! |
ITA with the comments above. I've used Dr. Bronner's to wash outdoor decking and it leaves a white-ish film. It has its place in the world, but not in my washing machine. |

Snemelka, I have a water softener and can understand your pain. First, you should stop using Dr. Bronners castile soap for your laundry. It's good to use in the shower - I love it in the shower - but it is a high sudsing product that is in no way designed to be used as a detergent in a high-efficiency washer under any conditions, especially with soft water. If you want a natural product that is gentle like Dr. Bronners, I would suggest looking into Vaska. You can find it competitively priced at alice.com. To bring your clothes back from the brink, I might suggest a few washings in Tide HE to ensure your clothes (as well as the inside of your machine) have been given a good cleaning with a real, powerful detergent. Then switch to Vaska, Seventh Generation, Ecover, or whatever laundry product you ultimately choose. Combining soft water with Dr. Bronners castile soap has created the perfect storm for suds. |

Lowry Hill Aerie
The third floor of this 1920s Tudor duplex was divided into a number of dark, claustrophobic rooms. All of the interior walls were able to be removed by concealing additional structure in the exterior walls and ceilings—allowing the entire space to be transformed into a master suite with the feel of a modern loft. The interesting forms of the ceilings and dormers became a wonderful canvas for new, contemporary design elements. The generous bedroom, intimate library, and cozy sitting area are all tied together by walnut flooring, while the bathroom dazzles with custom glass mosaic tile. A new skylight, highlighting a special piece from the homeowner's collection, and a rotating, wood burning fireplace, ensure this is a luxurious retreat both day and night.This project has been published in Midwest Home (October 2008), Bathroom Trends, and the StarTribune. A stunning renovation of the residence's kitchen and family room is featured as Lowry Hill Kitchen.

Preventing Moles
Name: John Status: other Age: 50s Location: N/A Country: N/A Date: 2000-2001
If I were to try using an underground barrier to prevent moles from being a nuisance in a limited area, how deep would I need to bury it. I could not find any information detailing how deep the various types of runs are in your interesting article on the mole's habits.
My plan is to dig a trench and bury hardware cloth to prevent the little guys from getting in and creating air pockets around the plants I put in the planting area. We are experiencing an unusually dry summer and the moles seem to be attractd to any place we water. I would be happy to report our success with this measure if you like.
Thank you.

At the Ten Bells
The Ten Bells – seen in the top right of this busy photograph of Commercial St in 1905 – is almost as old as Nicholas Hawksmoor's mighty edifice of Christ Church, Spitalfields, which it sits beneath just like a parcel under a Christmas tree. Once the church was completed in 1729, funds were raised for the installation of a standard peal of eight bells, and in 1755, The Eight Bells Alehouse was recorded in Red Lion St, the thoroughfare that became Commercial St in the nineteenth century. And The Eight Bells was renamed The Ten Bells in 1788, when a new set of ten chimes was installed in the belfry at Christ Church.
In 1851, as a result of the vast expansion of trade in London, Commercial St was cut through Spitalfields to convey traffic from the docks, diverting it from passing through the City, and the former Red Lion St was widened, resulting in the demolition of The Ten Bells. At the same time, the end of Fournier St was chopped off and, in compensation for the loss of their premises, Truman, Hanbury, Buxton & Co, owners of The Ten Bells were given the freehold of number thirty-three, the last house standing at the Western extremity of the street, along with five hundred pounds to rebuild the property. The architect's solution was to build the wrap-around facade which you see today, to cover the naked embarrassment of this fragment at the end of the terrace, enclosing a Georgian building within a Victorian frontage.
I learnt all this from John Twomey, the landlord, when he took me on a tour of the current renovations that are nearing completion after six years of planning and which will result in the reopening of the upper room with its dramatic views across to the market, down Commercial St and up to the spire of Christ Church looming overhead. The internal structure is an eccentric hybrid, in which, upon the upper floors, walls veer at unexpected angles to link the regularly spaced windows of the exterior with the jumble of interior spaces derived from the previous building.
As part of the restoration, the previous signboards have been removed to reveal those from a century ago, emblazoned with "Truman's Beers" in gold capitals upon a deep green ground, and – by chance – when I came to meet John Twomey, my arrival coincided with the new delivery of Truman's Beer that is now returning to the pubs of the East End. Walking in off the street, I discovered that the bar has been moved to the centre of the room which throws emphasis onto the magnificent coloured tiles that gleam in the light just as they have done for over century, connecting us to the countless thousands before us for whom this pub was a refuge from their working lives. In Spitalfields, many casual workers rented beds by the night and had no place to relax, socialise and seek solace after work except the bars - giving literal meaning to the phrase "public house." And in the smoothed stone upon the threshold, in its beaten up floors and worn staircases, everywhere throughout this old building, the soulful presence of all our predecessors is tangible at The Ten Bells.
"Coming from multiple career backgrounds and living in multiple locations, the only place I have ever felt at home is Spitalfields, which always changes," admitted John, who lives up above the pub in the warren of rooms with views across to the church. A fearless entrepreneur with steel blue eyes and copper hair who underplays his keen intelligence through magnanimous demonstrations of Hibernian charm and levity, John brings his own story to graft onto that of The Ten Bells. "Once upon a time," he began, "my mother started a fencing club and at thirteen I won a major competition. I began competing all over Europe, and it gave me a life of travelling and learning languages. But since the day I bought this pub, I haven't done a day's training."
"As a kid, I invented electrical testing equipment for fencing and that led me to study electrical engineering as a student. In Ireland, I won the national championship ten times, which was a record in their history, so I wasn't particularly interested in winning it eleven times. After university, I went to the Soviet Union and learnt Russian, but because I was in Estonia, which broke away, I had to learn Estonian too. It was exciting to be in a country that was being born, I got involved in starting a bank and was able to enjoy careers in banking and fencing hand-in-hand. The Soviet Union were the World Champions at the time, so to be invited to join an Estonian team was a great honour and we won their national championship. Then in 1996, I decided to move to London and by then I could speak ten languages. So I got a job designing systems for banks that allowed me to travel to places where I could do fencing, but by now I had fallen in love with Spitalfields…"
And then John fell silent, casting his eyes around humorously, after recounting his extraordinary narrative, because since 2001, this has been his life – here at The Ten Bells – even though he could not resist restoring a five hundred year old building in Morocco to create a hotel, as a side project. I could only marvel at this catalogue of achievement and draw the irresistible conclusion that John possesses that rare combination of both flourish and acumen, essential for a successful landlord.
We were sitting in the bar, upon tiny chairs from a primary school, on a sunny morning. Most prominent on the wall was William Butler Simpson & Sons' whimsical ceramic mural dating from the eighteen eighties, now cleaned by the same company that originally manufactured it, and we took a moment to admire it. Entitled "Spitalfields in ye olden times" and displaying a scene of aristocrats coming to buy silks from a weaver in the eighteenth century, John revealed it would shortly acquire a companion piece entitled "Spitalfields in modern times," painted by Ian Harper.
Over the next week, all manner of wild rumours reached me concerning who was being portrayed in this new painting and in what form. Then, last night, the residents gathered in a state of high anticipation in the upper room, for a party hosted by John, where Ian Harper pulled off the dust sheet to applause and murmurs of approval from the assembled crowd. It was the beginning of a new chapter, heralding renewed life at The Ten Bells.
This section of John Horwood's map (1794-99) shows Spitalfields before Commercial St was cut through along the line of Red Lion St. At this time, The Ten Bells occupied the un-numbered building at the corner of Red Lion St and Church St (now Fournier St). When these premises were demolished in the creation of Commercial St, the Ten Bells moved to the property numbered 33 Church St on this map and a new facade was built enclosing the earlier building, which you see today.

I live opposite the Ten Bells and looked on the net to try and find out what the latest developments are, as I have observed with interest all the changes to the pub and the area over the last 26 years. I was lucky enough to find this – very interesting read, about the pub, the area and the landlord.
December 19, 2010
With our workrooms down the road in this part of the City, I often favour long established businesses that offer much more historic relevance to the environ.
Pleased to see and read that somehow, these eateries and pubs have made it up to now to capitalise from the increase and footfall brought by the re-development of the area.
As consumers, we all have a choice where we spend our money and should use this power to make informed decisions which places we frequent to offer the financial support while enjoying the authentic.

Great article, I personally love The Ten Bells – always a great atmosphere. So are the upstairs areas open for viewing etc (as you suggest viewing the new "Spitalfields In Modern Time") which is upstairs.

I used to frequent the Ten Bells in the 1990s, when I worked in the City.
They used to have strippers on at lunchtime, and the place was always very busy.
Then in the evening, the character of the pub changed and it became the 'Jack The Ripper' pub, frequented by tourists seeking the old London. They even sold Jack The Ripper T – shirts.
The last time I visited was in 2011, and the strippers had gone, which is a pity, the chap behind the bar knew nothing of the recent history of the place.
Great site, thank you.

Pho 95 to move its Federal location and expand its south suburban digs
Aaron Le considers himself lucky -- very lucky. Two years ago, he took a big risk, opening a pho shop in the notoriously white-bred south suburbs, specifically at the Streets at SouthGlenn, where the majority of restaurants are mediocre chains -- or bland American cuisine copycats that appeal to the masses. Lori Midson
But before Le jumped chopsticks-first into suburbia, he'd already tasted the sweet smell of success...on South Federal Boulevard, where international joints, many of which are Vietnamese, dot the congested asphalt. His Vietnamese noodle shop, Pho 95, was a near instant hit, luring crowds from here, there and everywhere to its tattered and tarnished dining room, where the seam-split booths sat more butts than than they -- or Le -- could handle, which explains why the original Pho 95 is moving to a much larger location.
"We just don't have the capacity any longer to accommodate our guests," says Le. "We're overwhelmed, and there are just too many people coming through the doors who turn around and leave because there are ten people ahead of them waiting to be seated."
And while Le stresses that "it's been a great journey" at that tiny forty-seat space on Federal -- and he emphasizes that he's the "luckiest guy in the world" to have a packed house morning, noon and night -- watching potential new customers, along with his regulars, of which there are hundreds, slip out the door dejected isn't his idea of providing the kind of customer service he strives for.
"It's because of our supportive customers that we were able to open a second location, and it's because of them that we've worked so hard to keep up the consistency at both shops, so we made the decision to move to a larger location just a few blocks from where we are now in hopes of accommodating everyone," he adds.
And it's a space that's double the size of the original Pho 95, parading 2,500 square feet, enough to hold eighty addicts, and an additional dozen or so seats on the patio that Le will have completed by next spring. He also notes that the new space -- a former El Pollo Loco -- will have a full bar and an expanded menu. "We're in the process of getting a liquor license right now, and we plan on having a bar with seating and lots of draft beers, and while the menu will include everything we have now, we're going to add a lot more appetizers," says Le.

Would not be shocked if Cal loses once again in the Final Four or title game. Even Marquette should not be slept on. We shall see what happens. We all know Calipari is not a great coach, just a great recruiter of talent.

Chris King from Burgess Hill in West Sussex is the proud owner of New Peugeot E7 XS. Having driven an array of cabs, including saloons, TX's and the old style classic from Cab Direct, he is well placed to offer his critique.
Drive and Comfort
When your cab is your office it's vital that you have the right vehicle for the job. That's why E7 was designed with the requirements of the modern-day driver front of mind. Like many cabbies, Chris puts in a lot of hours – no less than 12 hours a day, 6 days a week. In fact, he did over 900 miles in his first three days with his New E7.
As such, comfort is a high priority. And Chris hasn't been disappointed. He explains: "New E7 drives like a car - it's certainly as good as any saloon I've driven. And the handling is just superb. The comfort levels are excellent too. It's by far the best taxi I've had. I would never go back."
Bags of Room
Today's passengers often come with plenty of luggage and being able to accommodate this is crucial. That's why New E7 brings you an amazing 70% more luggage capacity. Even better, the celebrated EasySlide™ rear seat allows you to create even more space for loading cases out of the way. And now with the option of the E7 plus, the long wheelbase model offering even greater room, you're sure to be able to cater for every fare.
Chris opted for the E7 plus and he's definitely noticed the difference. He says: "The boot space in my new cab is incredible. I recently took 6 passengers with 12 lots of luggage to the airport and it was no problem. The driving area is more spacious too. I couldn't be happier."
There is little doubt that taxis provide a vital component of the UK's public transport network. Disabled people in particular often depend on taxis to get around, which is why New E7 raises standards in accessibility for disabled passengers with Cab Directs revolutionary EasyGlide™ ramp.
The versatility provided by New E7 has proved to be one of the biggest plus points for Chris. He explains: "The EasyGlide ramp is simply brilliant. It literally takes seconds to secure a wheelchair passenger. As far as I'm concerned everybody has the right to public transport and New E7 makes that effortless. The twin electric side-steps are an excellent feature too."
Chris enthuses about New E7 XS. He says: "I can't fault my new cab and I would definitely recommend it. The service I received at Cab Direct was fantastic too. I'm most certainly a happy customer."

Young's Literal Translation (YLT) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 A Song of the Ascents. Unto Thee I have lifted up mine eyes, O dweller in the heavens. | 1 I lift up my eyes to you, to you whose throne is in heaven. |
2 Lo, as eyes of men-servants [Are] unto the hand of their masters, As eyes of a maid-servant [Are] unto the hand of her mistress, So [are] our eyes unto Jehovah our God, Till that He doth favour us. | 2 As the eyes of slaves look to the hand of their master, as the eyes of a maid look to the hand of her mistress, so our eyes look to the LORD our God, till he shows us his mercy. |
3 Favour us, O Jehovah, favour us, For greatly have we been filled with contempt, | 3 Have mercy on us, O LORD, have mercy on us, for we have endured much contempt. |
4 Greatly hath our soul been filled With the scorning of the easy ones, With the contempt of the arrogant! | 4 We have endured much ridicule from the proud, much contempt from the arrogant. |

An exploration of the current status quo of animal chiropractic in South Africa
Bosman, Pieter Jacobus
Background: Animal chiropractic, an internationally sanctioned profession, assists veterinarians with a complementary approach to animal healthcare therapy. Animal chiropractic in South Africa appears to be within its novel stages of development and no clear parameters define its present position. As a result of ambiguity and present concern dictated by veterinary regulation, animal chiropractic has not developed along well defined parameters, and it is thought that this study will contribute to achieving some clarity in this regard. The impetus for this study originated as a result of an increased awareness within the complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) field of these CAM therapies in the management of animal healthcare, and a growing interest in their application. Objective: The purpose of the study is to identify the current status of animal chiropractic in South Africa and to explore ways in which the integration of animal chiropractic into the animal healthcare setting of South Africa might be achieved. Method: This study is an interpretive investigation set in a post-positivistic paradigm and used a grounded theory approach. Data was collected from twelve semi-structured interviews (digitally voice recorded) with relevant stakeholders who were knowledgeable within their respective fields (animal chiropractic; veterinary health science; their respective governing bodies; and owners of animals which had received treatment from animal chiropractic). Questions addressed participants' perceptions and experiences of animal chiropractic with regard to the role it plays, current interprofessional interactions and developmental issues facing the profession. Qualitative analysis of the data was done using NVIVO 9 software (NVivo 9, developed in Australia, copyright 2011 QSR International Pty Ltd.). The purpose of the data collection was to obtain knowledge presently available within the proposed field in order to build a credible theory which might explain the current status of animal chiropractic in South Africa and the way forward to professional integration with mainstream animal healthcare practice. iv Results: Applying a process of grounded theory methodology revealed that certain key prerequisites were needed for integration of animal chiropractic with mainstream animal healthcare to take place. Firstly, animal chiropractic practitioners had to be seen to have reached a certain level of competence, which could be achieved through a recognised educational programme and by following practising standards at the same (or similar) level as veterinary practitioners. Secondly, acceptance by the public and mainstream practitioners is vital, and requires that the need for animal chiropractic is well motivated, that the role of animal chiropractic is better defined, and that collaboration with mainstream professionals is implemented. Thirdly, animal chiropractic needs careful regulation in order for it to be controlled appropriately. This will require a suitable professional body to govern it, legislation to endorse it and guidelines to direct its actions. Lastly, resources must be available, such as enough animal chiropractors interested in entering the field, sufficient qualified instructors (i.e. experienced animal chiropractors) to provide tuition, adequate amenities, and sufficient time available for the profession to develop and the integration process to take place. Conclusion: It would appear that, with CAVM therapies becoming popular, more people are becoming interested in animal chiropractic. The study suggests that, if the animal chiropractic profession makes provision for achieving the prerequisites of competence, acceptance, regulation and resources in terms of its future development, it might be possible to achieve professional integration with mainstream animal healthcare within the next ten years.

Momservation: Sometimes you have to go with shock and awe to get a good point across.
☺ ☺ ☺
It's come down to this: You have 6 seconds to make an impression.
I guess I better get straight to the point.
Momservation: You can't spell "selfie" without narcissism.
I think this generation of youth should be dubbed "The Trawling Generation." Seriously. In the history of time there has never been such a mass rush of youth eager to take up the profession of fishing.
Momservation: If you or your husband's teeth looked like a bag of fries when you were kids—forget saving for college and start saving for braces.
I was trying to keep this on the down-low because I didn't want to rub it in anyone's faces…but I just can't contain my good fortune and thrill any longer. So here it is:
Momservation: He may tower over me, call me Mom in the voice of Darth Vader, and have limbs of muscle and hair, but all these mother's eyes can see is a baby boy.
Momservation: It's never too late to water-down your expectations for yourself.
...I'm going to spend the last day of 2013 doing those things I had meant to do but never got around to—I'm going to slide in under the wire before time expires so I can yell, "Yes! I did it!" instead of "Aww, hell. Not again."
Momservation: I'm squarely in the "Creepy" column on my feelings for Elf on the Shelf.
So here's a sad observation:

McKIM, MEAD & WHITE,
NEW YORK. 18th November 1895.
Dear Prof. Buckmaster:
I received a photograph of the ruins of
the Rotunda this morning which I presume came from you. The photo-
graph makes me regret more than anything else could the great loss
which has fallen not only upon the University but upon the country
at large. I can only trust that its restoration has fallen into
the hands of somebody who has had a thorough classic training. The
building was so much a National monument, of which we have so few,
that its restoration should be treated in the most reverent man-
ner. I am sorry to say architects are too prone to assert their
own originality, and in this case it would, I am sure, result dis-
I sincerely hope your University is taking the very best
advice in the matter, and I am sure that Prof. Ware, of Columbia
College, or any architect of high standing would be glad to render
you any service they could in the way of consultation.
Very truly yours,
Wm. R. Mead

Important Information >>
Yoav S. Liberman is a studio furniture artist, an architect and an inventor. His work combines the old and new, using found objects and discarded wood as sources of inspiration for the pieces that he builds.
Mike Dombrowsky spent two semesters with us at the Eliot Woodshop. After contemplating a few project alternatives he zoomed in on making a shaker influenced end table, but with a twist. Mike set to break the symmetry of the drawer facade and, in a truly virtuous way, to deconstruct it by making the handle in the front stand out.
Here is the sketch of the drawer front. Notice the inset behind the handle.
Mike chose to shape the handle from wenge while the rest of the table was made from pine, popular and mahogany.
Here are a few pictures:

The fatigue is debilitating as is the floaty feeling along with that flu like achy feeling. All of these feelings combined just make me feel horrible. I am so tired of being tired and I am so sick of being sick. That is the only way I can sum it up.
I looked so hideous on my Skype date that I didn't even want to look at myself in that small right hand box and I cut the conversation short before I started crying at my hideous appearance. I just want some magical health fairy to come down, sprinkle health dust on me and I'd be all better. I know I am no fun to be around and I don't like being that person, but a chronic illness is a full time job. Rita never leaves for the night or takes a vacation. I'd be happy if she damn well did.
I thought I would be better by today and that was one lofty high achieving goal I guess. What can I say? I aim high.
Another Saturday night wasted on illness while others are out there socializing and having a life. I have my pillows and my pills.
Someone with a fun, exciting, and healthy life report back with their Saturday night shenanigans. This way, I can live vicariously through you.
I rest my head in hopes of being in a sleep induced Paradise.

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 Jake!
Facts about Jake
- Breed: American Pit Bull Terrier
- Color: White - With Brown Or Chocolate
- Age: Adult
- Size: Unknown
- Sex: Male
Jake's Info...
I am purebred.
Sweet Jake comes to us from Missouri. He was one of 500+ dogs seized in the largest dog fighting bust in U.S. history. The Humane Society of Missouri and A LOT of volunteers are working tirelessly to care for, evaluate and get these dogs a second chance at a good life.
(1) An adoption application must be submited and approved prior to meeting any of our rescues.
(2) ALL Bless the Bullys dogs are spayed or neutered prior to adoption. This IS NOT optional.
(3) Bless the Bullys will not approve adoptions to homes in which a dog of the SAME sex currently resides.
(4) Home visits are a mandatory step in the adoption process.
(5) Bless the Bullys firmly believes that all members of a household should be a part of the adoption process. We encourage all household members to meet the potential adopt-a-bull, including current pets.
(6) The adoption fee is $150.00.
Other Pets at Bless the Bullys Pit Bull Rescue & Education
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Jake, a Gainesboro American Pit Bull Terrier dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a American Pit Bull Terrier for sale in Gainesboro, or seeking a American Pit Bull Terrier dog from a breeder in Gainesboro.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Gainesboro 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 Gainesboro 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 American Pit Bull Terrier breeders who help with American Pit Bull Terrier rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Gainesboro paves the way for another one to be saved.

Come Crash the New Times' Miami Music Festival VIP Party This Thursday
Categories: Miami Music Festival
Lil Daggers are total VIPs. |
The bad news: Part of the night (9 to 11 p.m.) will be invitation-only, which leaves us with the painful task of cutting our preliminary guestlist by 735 names. Sorry.
The good news: Everyone who shows up after 11 will get inside immediately.
See the cut for bands and other details.
dm-images.com |
Nope, we're not talking about conical tents made of animal skins. This particular Teepee is Eric Lopez-Zareno, a generally solo muzak guy of the "acoustic/shoegaze/experimental" variety, who also plays "w/ other musicians sometimes." And if you're among the minority who's never heard his noise, just interweb your way to Senzei Records and start stockpiling whatever Teepee stuff's not already out of print. You will thank us a million times.
Now here's a band that you might not know. And this time we won't make fun of you for it. Why? Because the Heartstrings operate in a very secret space. Only those who haunt Sweat Records in-stores and other somewhat hush-hush happenings might have firsthand knowledge of this punky fuzz crew's sweet Ramones-meets-Phil-Spector-minus-the-gun sound. Another way you could've become acquainted with the Heartstrings: You're way cooler than us and you scored a very rare copy of the garage-y gang's demos.
If you're into dangerously drunk rock 'n' roll, then meet the Dagger dudes. They'll do shots with you. They'll hunt mushrooms with you. They'll probably even dance with you. But beware ... Piss them off and they'll stab you. Just joking. Kinda. Not really. Typically, Lil Daggers are nice guys. And they've never actually gotten violent with us. But there's gotta be some reason why songs like "Outta Your Hair," "King Corpse," and "Dada Brown" are so superpacked with sinister ripples, right?
Try to outwit our beefy, bumbling bouncers. But if you fail to sneak in early, you'll see Jay Blue's Band. The leader is Jay Blue and he plays blues. His self-professed influences are "Jonny Lang, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Luther Allison, Stevie Wonder, Buddy Guy, John Lee Hooker, B.B. King, Eric Clapton, along with James Taylor, Vince Vaughn, Kirk Franklin, and Toby Keith." Bluesy blues blues. Plus some country comedy gospel.

How to Use "Too" and "To" Correctly
Two Methods:Usage ChartUsing Too and To Correctly
Are you used to seeing "to" and "too" mixed up too many times? A common mistake, the use of "to" or "too" is very easy to differentiate between and once you know how to tell, you can teach others how to get it right too!
Usage Chart
Using Too and To Correctly
1Make this easy by focusing on "too" first. If you know what "too" means, then you can use it just for those specific meanings, knowing full well that every other use of the word "to" will be accurate.
- Remember that "too" has an extra "o".
- A little trick is to try stressing "too" when spoken, to help yourself remember it more easily. One great example is where you place emphasis on it such as when you want to get your own way: "I want to come too". Of course, don't spell it that way, but keep it as a mental image for future reference.
Ad -
2Learn the meanings for "too". The first meaning is "also" or "besides"; the second meaning is "excessively" or "extra". In addition, some people use it to mean "very". Think of too as being relevant when there is an increase in something, such as temperature, difficulty, sensitivity, etc., "too hot", "too challenging", or "too soft". Hence:
- Choose the word "too" when it can be substituted for the word "also".
- For example: "She felt awful, too (also)" or "I can see you too (also)".
- Use "too" to modify or emphasize a word.
- For example: "The weather is too (excessively) hot", "I've eaten too (excessively) much", or "The package is too (excessively/extra) big".
- "He wasn't too (very) interested in my book."
- Choose the word "too" when it can be substituted for the word "also".
3Learn the role of "to". "To" is a preposition. Use "to" for expressing direction, place, or position. For example:
- It can be used when going towards something."I am going to the store" or "Will you just go to bed please!"
- It can be used when you're doing something in the direction of something or someone, such as: "I am speaking to your friend", or "I am looking to the right".
4Understand that "to" is also used when you're using a verb in the infinitive.
- For example: "To go home", "to catch a mouse", or "to open the door."
5Practice. Here's a few to test yourself with (answers in "Tips" below):
- She's coming [to/too] your party [to/too].
- I'm [to/too] hot [to/too] help you carry [to/too/two] suitcases [to/too] the bus station.
- We are hoping [to/too] be near the festival [to/too].
- It's [to/too] early [to/too] be asking me questions about where I am headed [to/too].
- I hate [to/too] disturb your thoughts but are you ready [to/too] help us with our homework [to/too]?
We could really use your help!
building longboards?
Virtual DJ?
- Keep in mind some more examples:
- Do you think we're arriving too soon?
- Here, you can stress "toooo", as in it's much sooner than we should be arriving.
- You should meet us there, too.
- Here, you can stress "toooo" as in, "Why don't you meet us there as well; in addition; along with, etc.
- It's a cold day to be playing outside.
- Stressing here doesn't add any emphasis or give more information.
- They are going to the beach with us.
- Stressing here doesn't add emphasis or information because "to" is simply being used as a preposition.
- Do you think we're arriving too soon?
- Answers to the test questions:
- She's coming to your party too.
- I'm too hot to help you carry two suitcases to the bus station.
- We are hoping to be near the festival too.
- It's too early to be asking me questions about where I am headed to.
- I hate to disturb your thoughts but are you ready to help us with our homework too?
- Some claim that never ending a sentence with a preposition is grammatically correct and that following this "logic" can prevent you from making a mistake with "to" and "too" because it'd mean you'd always avoid using the word "to" at the end of any sentence. However, this is based on a misunderstanding and modern grammarians claim that it is perfectly acceptable to place prepositions at the end of a sentence, and always has been (cue Shakespeare).[1]
- Although a less (but still) common mistake, don't forget about "two." This is easy to distinguish because it means the number, 2.
- Think of too as as two zeros because it's used as a duplicate or in phrases referring to two or more objects, places, or things.

(CNN) - A Halloween pumpkin carving experiment went very wrong on live TV in Indiana.
Jason Lindsey, known as the "Hooked on Science Guy" was trying to demonstrate how you can use a small explosion to carve a pumpkin.
Here's how it was supposed to go: he pre-cut the eyes, nose and mouth of the pumpkin and filled it with a chemical formula.
Once the gas built up inside the pumpkin, he ignited it with a lighter and the eyes, nose and mouth were supposed to pop right out.
He apparently allowed the pumpkin to fill up with too much gas, so when he lit it with the lighter...it exploded.
