User Ratings & Opinions
Best Case Ever | |
User: Brian F, Oct 16, 2012 |
I work in mechanical construction (steamfitter), and i have to say this is probably the best case i have ever owned. I had the otter box case with the rubber outer shell and it kept getting hung up in my pants pocket and having to clean my phone constantly. with the lifeproof case, its fully enclosed, waterproof (good for my trade), and i dont feel bad if it falls off the ladder or into the tiolet while at work. def money well spent. does sell on amazon for about $30 cheaper. | |
Excellent | |
User: Luis Alejandro B, Aug 10, 2014 |
I have a life proof since one and a half year ago, my iPhone 4 is completely safe, like a new brand. I took it to the beach and immerse in the water to take a pictures, fantastic. If I could buy the next iPhone, definitely Ill buy its life proof case. |
good | |
User: Saul G, Sep 23, 2013 |
i bought this brand directly on best buy. This case worth it, i prove it my self in the pool and it is amazing to see how it works. I did a great choice. | |
Not worth the price | |
User: Tom G, Jun 23, 2012 |
The case didnt seal well enough to risk it in water, and though the ports were covered well, and no doubt dirt/dust proof as advertised, without being able to trust the waterproof feature meant that, to me, the case certainly wasnt worth such a hefty price tag. It seemed to me, also, that were you to drop the phone from, say, waist or chest height, onto a hard surface, it would probably damage the case enough to compromise its integrity. Ive opted for sending it back in favor of another brand at half the price. Jmo. | |

Mirena Coil

- Posts Anonymous · 23 Jan 2008 Gerry, I had the reverse. Had my first coil fitted seven years ago, it worked great but I had a 6 week heavy period at the beginning, then light spotting.two years ago I had the coil replaced since then I only have a spot (literally) or two every months. The 6 week period never bothered me or affected me (tho it worried the heck out of my partner) but it wasa nuisancwe. What did they say abut it during your check-up? I'm 34, no children. | ||
- Posts Anonymous · 23 Jan 2008 Hi.Had my first coil fitted six years ago, it worked great had very light bleeding every so often although i had spotting continuous for six months.Last year I had the coil replaced since then i had spotting for three to six weeks, then i get a break of a couple of weeks and then back. It has not effected my energy just a nuisance. I am 46 has anybody else got this problem. | ||
- Posts Anonymous · 23 Jan 2008 A period lasting two weeks, or persisent heavy periods really sounds like it needs much more investigation than simply putting in the coil.What tests or examinations has your gyn recommended? Neither I nor anyone else I know has been told by theit gyn not to use tampons with the mirena - except for that first period when its inserted. I would still use them only my period doesn't last that long. There arw a whole range of other therapies, depending on your tests and diagnosis, for heavy periods before considering something as drastic as a hysterectomy, which is major surgery. Please do investigate these first. | ||
1 Posts polly · 22 Jan 2008 I am 32 and had the coil fitted one year ago to stop my heavy periods, the pill just wasn't working. Since then, I have a period every 4 weeks which lasts for 2 weeks. While its not as heavy as it used to be it still continues for 2 weeks leaving me feeling like crap! We've booked our summer holiday and now I'm terrified that I'm going to get my period at some point in the holiday and because the doctor told me not to use a tampon with the coil, I won't even be able to sunbathe or go for a swim. I have 2 kids, the youngest is 6 and I don't intend to have any more. I'm strongly considering making an appointment with my GP to ask him to refer me for a hysterectomy, I don't think there are any more options out there. And I think I'm at the stage where I'm just not prepared to waste any more time trying out something that might work, when I could just go for an alternative that would definitely work! I have bad skin and regular cramps and I'm just sick of feeling like this. Is there anyone else out there who has experienced similar problems with the coil, and if so, what solution worked for you?
| ||
- Posts Anonymous · 21 Jan 2008 My friend was the same, she had it put in three years ago and has only had two periods since.I still have my 'friend' once a month but only for a couple of hours. It makes life less messy but I do miss that energy rush I used to get coming up to it and during it., But I suppose no more pills is a very positive trade-off. | ||
1 Posts andrea (YBD66943) · 18 Jan 2008 I had the coil fitted 5 years ago. I am not due to have it replaced as it wasn't put in for contraceptive purposes but because i had on-going bleeding since my sterlisation 9 years ago. From the month after i had it in, i've not had any bleeding at all. yes i have put on weight around my middle, but a lack of good dieting and no exercise would do the same which i am guilty of.

- Posts Anonymous · 17 Jan 2008 No - not endometrial ablation by laser but ultrasound procedure using ExAblate device This specifically targets fibroids. Please see link below http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ExAblate.Sounds really promising. | ||
- Posts Anonymous · 17 Jan 2008 Anonymous - do you mean endometrial ablation by laser?
| ||
- Posts Anonymous · 17 Jan 2008 Has anyone heard if MR guided Focused Ultrasound Surgery (MRgFUS) using the ExAblate® system is performed in Ireland. This non invasive treatment is used for fibroids or myoma hence, heavy periods etc.. I was offered hysterectomy but that would be my last resort. I had Mirena fitted to stop heavy bleeding and pain but doesn't look promising. Thanks

- Posts Anonymous · 04 Jan 2008 Hi martha, i suppose I was lucky, on he coil I lost the weight I gained with the pill. It's logical tho if your weight increases then your bra size will too. Altho a healthier diet and exercise helped me greatly too. But I can concur on the acne front. I get little dark pimples athte corner of my mouth and chin but for me its a small proce to pay for not having to take the pill - altho I know I'll have to go back on it eventually. Removal is a breeze actually, not painful at all. Tho' obviously you'll need to use alternate protection afterwards. | ||
53 Posts Martha-Stewart · 03 Jan 2008 Hi Everyone. I had my mirena fitted 2 years ago. I have gained weight, my boobs have increased by 2 cup sizes and I have recently started to get some acne!!! I am seriously considering having it removed. I have felt since I got it fitted, I have become slightly 'down' in myself. I have tried to lose the weight I gained and its not working, even with eating pretty healthy, exercise and weightwatchers!! I am wondering is the removal painful???!!!

4 Posts Lisa · 02 Jan 2008 The medication I was prescribed was Misoprostol, I was given 3 pills and had to take them 3 hours prior to insertion. I think this really did help! Its been almost 2 weeks now and I've felt great. I have not had any cramps or spotting.
| ||
- Posts Anonymous · 02 Jan 2008 Lisa, can you tell me what meds you were prescribed to thin your uterus as I'd be very interested to see if they could help me next time around.

4 Posts Lisa · 21 Dec 2007 Hi, I just had my mirena coil fitted two days ago and I have to tell you so far so good. The fitting was a little painful but my gyno prescribed a medication to help thin my uterius which I greatly believe help. It was not near as painful as I worried it would be. I did have some cramping and bleeding afterward but nothing too bad. The next morning I felt great no cramping or bleeding. I have friends waiting to see how everything goes to see if they will have one fitted and I have to tell you so far I'm completely for it.

- Posts Anonymous · 30 Nov 2007 Hi 29/11/2007 22:16, after I had my first mirena inserted, had a period for 6 weeks but I had been on the pill for 10 years before that.But still, you should not be bleeding for 4 ,months. That is definitely indicative of a problem. I would go back to the doc and ensure that all the investigations and any procedures they did in relation to your heavy periods before you decided on the mirena were carried out correctly and do not need to be repeated. | ||
- Posts Anonymous · 29 Nov 2007 I had mirena coil inserted in July this year.Since then bleeding almost every day except for about 1 week break. Contracting feeling when bleeding and feeling crap. Has anyone experienced same and will it improve. I really want it to work as periods were very heavy with clots before this. Please any advice would help! | ||
- Posts Anonymous · 29 Nov 2007 A word of advice to supporter - next time around, do not put up with the agony. Take your poston F, every three to four hours. DO NOT wait for the onset of pain.No one should be in so much pain that they cry themselves to sleep I am pleased with mine but due to the side effects on insertion, would need a hospital visit for the second one so will probably go wiht the implant. I get a very short period too, not as predictable as the pill (which I could time to the hour) but only lasting a morning. It doesn;t suit everyone tho I suppose | ||
- Posts Anonymous · 29 Nov 2007 Hi All,I am shocked by all the negative comments on the coil. I have mine in with almost 5 years and am due to have it replaced in Feb 08. I have to say I had agony the day it was inserted and cried myself to sleep. But by the following day I was much better. After about a week I was perfect. It solved my heavy periods and has been the only contraceptive I have used that didn't end in a pregnancy. I wouldn't hesitate to put it back in. A little weight gain is a small price to pay for periods that pop in for about 10 mins once a month to remind me they exist. My best friend also had it inserted at my recommendation and she thinks it's great too. | ||
- Posts Anonymous · 27 Nov 2007 30yrldmum - have you had your thyroid tested. I had the exact ame wieght gain and it wasn't mirena related. My thyroid was failing. Get tested would be my advice

1 Posts 30yrldmum · 27 Nov 2007 Hi there, I had the Mirena fitted and over the period of approx 6 mths steadily gained weight, had terrible mood swings from incensed and volatile witch to sobbing wreck. I had it removed a couple of months ago but still feel very heavy and can't seem to shift the weight I gained-all around my midrif-never had this shape before...quite upset by it all really. Any ideas? | ||
- Posts Anonymous · 26 Nov 2007 Nosa, I meant to mention I'm 4.Jax, the mirena is suitable for use for 5 years. It can be removed sooner if you want to try for a baby or want to swithc contraceptives. After 5 years it will need to either be replaced with a new one or you will need to switch to another method of contraception. | ||
6 Posts sinead (LNI65018) · 25 Nov 2007 Hi NosasmumI hope your not to put off by all this negative information about the mirena coil. I had mine fitted after my 2nd child the fitting was a little painful and i had cramping for about 3 days afterwards.My period lasted about a month afterwards and then i got them every 3 weeks for the next year, light but there and lasted about a 7 days. I had it in for about 2 years but have had it removed at the end of september as we are trying for another baby. The only good thing i can say about it is that its great not having to take the pill everyday and it lasts for 5 years which i'm sure you know but i have to say after having it removed i would definitely try another method of contraception the next time, plus may i add that when i had the coil my sex drive was at an all time low and since having it removed its improved imensely. Thats just my opinion not much help i know but hope it gives you a little idea of the mirena coil by the way i'm 31! | ||
- Posts Anonymous · 23 Nov 2007 Had my mirena fitted 3 years ago and it did take some time to settle down - but well worth it as i now have no periods at all. I do have yellowly watery discharge and this usually happens around time of pain in my sides which i think is my period! i'm willing to put up with this rather than 7 days of heavy bleeding and pain. however, i have experienced this more recently now - how do you know when the mirena is needing replaced - is it when your period starts coming back? i really don't want to end up with a late in life pregnancy due to not knowing if i am protected or not! thanks!

- Posts Anonymous · 23 Nov 2007 Hi Nosa,Not sure what PE is , but I have no children nor had any pregnancies but still have the Mirena fitted. Yes, it was painful, the firstt ime just during the insertion itself and cramps afterwards., the second time my blood pressure dropped during the fitting and I almost fainted and the cramps lasted into the next day and I needed ponstan for longer (this will be prscribed with the coil and its important that you take it before the fitting and for the stomach pains afterwards) BUT, and I stress this, the drop in blood pressure ONLY happens to a very tiny percentage of women and was contributed to by the fact that during the fitting I actually got a contraction! It is easier to fit the mirena for women who have had children but for those in long term relationships who don't have cjhildren it is not neccessarily contra-indicated. On the positive side you have no contracpetion worries, no remembering to take the pill and no risk of malabsorbtion should you have a stomach upset or need anti-biotics. Just to note that in my case it was fitted correctly on both occasions. As for the snip, aside form the risk of Post-Vasectomy-Syndrome, I would willingly have the coiuld fitted a second time rather then put my partner thru that as I know for many men the pain and after effects can last up to two weeks. For me the simple solution if I wanted the mirena again, given what happened to me, would be to have it fitted in hoispital under general aneasthetic. Or if you are sure your family is complete, you could consider having tubal ligation. Other (neutral) effects - other than the initial bleed after the first onew as fited - like long long period given that I had come off the pill, are that uour period is super-short, I'm talking an hour and You can switch from tampons to pant-liners tho' of course it won't have the super-precise timing of the pill. If can be fited by your gynae. I went to the IFPA clinic and the follow up was very good. As I said it can also be fitted in hospital if you need to. As for information, you could try the manufacturers website. It is factual altho some make see it as having a positive spin. | ||
1 Posts Nosasmum · 23 Nov 2007 Hai all, I just had my 2nd child and got PE. So the PHN, GP and Consultant that treated me are all telling me I should have the coil fitted (after my medication is finished) to prevent any more pregnancies as they would increase my chance of getting PE again - posibly dring pregnancy next time. However, after hearing the stories here I am pretty scared to be honest. I was told that the coil is generally only given to women who have had children as their cervix is more flexible. Are you all having problems because you didnt have children or because it was not fitted correctly?? I have tried to find information on the coil itself, where it is fitted and what side effects etc.. I am seriously considering sending my husband for the snip rather than face the pain it seems to cause and the lack of information and follow-up from GPs. Can anyone direct me to a site where there is just information on the coil?

- Posts Anonymous · 25 Oct 2007 No probs. I don't have Endo but was on the pill from 17 for 10 years. I was diagnosd with hypothyroidism about 8 years ago and just to note. Untreated hypothyroidism can afect your chances of getting pregnant also. Besides, having it treated has made an enormous difference to me.Lost weight, improved libido, perkier outlook on life and loads of energy and my skin and hair aren't as dry. | ||
4 Posts Elise · 25 Oct 2007 Thanks Kate - good to know I'm not becoming a hypocondriac! Never thought about getting my thyroid checked but will do. I'm 32 years old- have had endometriosis since I was 17. Would love to have coil taken out as I've had in in for so long now I've forgotten what it feels like without it. Would love to take it out now but think I should wait off until we start trying for a baby as I'm nervous about the endo coming back and causing further damage once the coil is out. I had a fallopian tube and ovary removed already due to endo so odds are stacked against me as it is for getting pregnant. | ||
- Posts Anonymous · 25 Oct 2007 Well Elsie, I thought it was just me.Had my first one - insertion was pretty awful but from Day 2 on everything was fine. Spotting every month, no pain no bloatedness. second Mirena. Insertion was absolutely horrible. Still felt awful next day and every month for 6 or 8 months, instead of spotting I'd have these awful stabblign sensations in my cervix! They went away for about a year and a half but so did my , by now very small, period. Which I wasn't delighted about. About two years into the second one, my spotting returned but over a longer time period (no pun intended) and I've had no problem since. By the way, I'm only 34. With regard to your symptoms - HAVE YOUR THYROID CHECKED. That is very important - hence my use of capitals. I am hypothryroid and there were my exact symptoms and that was long before the mirena. | ||
- Posts Anonymous · 25 Oct 2007 Hi there,I'm on my second mirena - have had it in now for 7 years. Now two years into my second one and am finding that I'm not reacting to it nearly as well this time. First five years were great - it really dealt with the awful pain I suffered from due to endometriosis. But now on second one I feel depressed and tired a lot of the time, mood swings - literally enraged with anger some days, constant lower tummy and back pain, no sex drive and bloated face. Just wondering if anyone has had good experiences with their first mirena and then reacted badly to second one? Don't understand why I'm having problems with second coil - would it be down to age maybe? | ||
6 Posts sinead (LNI65018) · 20 Oct 2007 HiI've just got my first period since getting the mirena coil removed. I'm still having very heavy bleeding even though i'm six days into it now and also i have had a lot of large blood clots as well (sorry for being disgusting), can anyone tell me is this normal and i'm also trying to get pregnant since getting it removed and have had no luck in the first month can anyone tell me if they have had a similar experience and give me some advice as to how long conception took them??? | ||
- Posts Anonymous · 04 Oct 2007 I was similar anonymous, period for two months after the first fitting which was painful, but no cramps afterwards.Second fitting was extremely painful, no bleeding afterwards (which wouldn't have actually bothered me) but bad stomach pains the next day and then a stabbling sensation low down around the time of my period for about 6 months afterwards, which I know is not normal but is seems that my womb was contracting ! I just have spottign every month now. It hasn't affected my energy, I still swim 30 - 40 lengths 5 morning per week. tho' to be honest I miss that energy rush I used to get during my period but it hasn't affected my sex drive. if anything it's better knowing that the risk of pregnancy is much lower and because my period is so much shorter there's less mess during that time of the month, if you know what I mean. Sorry probably too much info. Another positive effect is that I've had to stock up on tampons so seldom! For me, I will not be getting one again next time around, I will probably switch to the implant. I will give it another go but I'll have it done in hospital with better pain relief. | ||
- Posts Anonymous · 03 Oct 2007 HiI had the mirena coil fitted at my local doctor's surgery. It was uncomfortable getting it fitted even though the doc said it would't hurt it did. I had cramps for about 3 days after a lot like period cramps and i had my period constantly for about 2 months after and about every 3 wks after that for about 6 months but i have to say it was very worth it. I have had it removed about a month now as we are trying for another baby but since having it removed i feel like i have so much more energy and i have got my sex drive back. I will have to consider long and hard as to whether i will get one again. As for your pain if it continues I would seriously consider going back to your GP. | ||
- Posts Anonymous · 03 Oct 2007 Never had a D&C or laparoscopy but I did have a mirena fitted, at my local clinic. The fitting itself was painful (even more painful second time around so I will be requesting a hospital referral and aneasthetic next time) and it was in discomfort next day but I couldn't say whether they were cramps or not.But I did have bleeding for 6 weeks afterwards - not painful but just like a 6 week period! I had been on the pill for 10 years prior to that. | ||
1 Posts MB · 02 Oct 2007 Had Mirena Coil fitted two weeks ago post DNC and Lap&Dye....Have had heavy bleeding and cramps for two weeks now. Has anyone else suffered from this post coil fitting? Would welcome any replies! | ||
- Posts Anonymous · 27 Sep 2007 Hi 10.57 here. No, I didn't. I had my second inserted after first one was removed, so I can't help you there.Sorry. | ||
6 Posts sinead (LNI65018) · 26 Sep 2007 Hi AnonI had the mirena coil removed and youre right it was painless just a little like a smear test. I'm just wondering did you have yours removed for the purpose of getting pregnant again and if so did it take you long to conceive? | ||
- Posts Anonymous · 26 Sep 2007 Hiya,If anything it will be easier having it removed during your period. There shouldn't be any pain afterwards but what I found was that my first period afterwards lasted weeks! as my hormone cycle adjusted. | ||
6 Posts sinead (LNI65018) · 20 Sep 2007 HiI have the mirena coil in for the past 3 yrs. We have decided to have another baby so i'm having it removed in the morning. I cannot contact my GP and need to know is it ok to have it removed as i am in the middle of my period can anyone help me also will i have some pain after it is removed? | ||
- Posts Anonymous · 10 Aug 2007 I recently got the Mirena inserted in Holles Street and I'm finding it great. I'm only 24 but since I was 12, I have had periods that lasted 21 days out of a 28 cycle. It wasn't just spotting that was I having, it was full blown period. I have been Tampax and Always' best customer for the past 12 years. After years of having D&C's done (the first I had done on my 16th birthday when I was old enough to sign a consent form). With 6 D&C's, 1 laparoscopy, ablation, cerivcal ectropian diagnosis and number of referrals to psych as they thought it was stress related...To be honest, out of the whole experience, to be doubted by the medical teams as to whether I was telling the truth even though you can't exactly fake blood! It's not as if I was complaining of a complaint that wasn't visible...I'm glad to finally have the Mirena. I haven't had any children yet but to be honest, Mirena so far has been the best option. I have been on every pill, injection and patch. Everything would work for a few months and then stop working. The Mirena is my last hope. Recently I was diagnosed with a bleeding disorder which should have been detected years back. If it had of been detected, I wouldn't have had the surgeries (which always resulted in massive bleeds) and wouldn't have spent my teenage years jealous of anyone wearing white trousers and skirts. Now with the back up of St James's hospital and Holles street, I'm being taking seriously with the bleeding and my periods which has resulted in the Mirena being prescribed. Fingers crossed this works!! | ||

I plan on getting the PE basic software and card reader from Ebay and some designs from the net to try out with it too. Thanks for any help or info on this machine, I can't wait to start my new hobby!!!! Kerri |

Thoroughly read that manual several times before you start and then start practicing the manual from page 1. Because of technology, today's machines aren't exactly your grandmother's old machine. There are many free designs to download to practice with so I would start with the freebies first plus what is installed on your machine. Brother is pretty good about giving you a starter kit. You do need extra needles, stabilizer, machine embroidery thread (a few spools to start), and practice fabric. There is probably a Brother group on Yahoo groups you may want to join...they have a wealth of knowledge about your machine and embroidery methods as this site isn't that active should you need help. |

Hi :)
We will be closing on our new house the first week of May and in the meantime I have been planning all of my decorating so we can get started right away when we move in. This room of the house was set up as a dining room, but we are going to make this our living room. Next year we are going to be doing an addition and some remodeling and it will open up the living room, dining room and kitchen all into one big space but until then, this is what we have for living room. If you look at the layout that I've done, the front door is at the bottom right (just shows a wall there now) entering from the same wall that the larger sectional piece is on. Of course we will have the sectional and ottoman, tv against opposite wall and on the far right wall, you can see where the wood stove is located. If you look at the realtor photo, you can see that there are two long skinny windows on either side. The floor will be trafficmaster allure hickory and we have not yet decided on the wall color. I have been a city girl all of my life and we are moving to the country so these wood stoves are all new to me. I have never used one, don't really particularly like them, but for now it is staying. So any ideas of what I can do to dress it up a bit? My style is a mix of bohemian chic with a touch of shabby but really I'm mostly eclectic and like a mix of all styles so I am very open to suggestions. Thank you!!

Welcome to the country from another transplanted city girl! You're going to really like your wood stove. My friend has one almost identical to yours, it's in the middle of a long wall in her LR, with a tiled floor under it. Her floor is a bit bigger though. In the summer she decorates around and behind it with tall potted plants, along with pictures on the wall. In the winter you can buy some pretty pieces to sit atop your stove for water & humidity. A wood stand would be nice since you'll be using it. You'll have fun dressing it up! |
You have a beautiful "Franklin Fireplace." I would love to have it! You'll be amazed at the warmth it gives. No other type of heat will warm you like a wood-burning stove. Congratulations. We're remodeling our three-seasons' porch into a four-seasons' porch this summer. We will be putting in a corn burner stove with a glass front...but it's not nearly as large and pretty as yours. Our exhaust pipe will go out through the wall horizontally. We plan to have a flag stone hearth under the stove and more stone going to the ceiling behind the stove. I don't plan to "decorate" it as such, but in the summer I'll keep live plants on it. There will be a mantle set into the stone work; I'll probably hang some sort of artwork above it. |

Beautiful Konrad! What are those purple potatoes like? Did you eat any yet? Can you take a picture of the middles? They look so cool. |
- Posted by laurie_z3_mb sw MB (My Page) on Tue, Oct 17, 06 at 9:23
Wow, your purple potatoes got 10 times bigger than mine did! Out of 3 hills I only got an ice cream pail full, and the biggest would have only been maybe 5" long. Gill, I mainly grew them for the boys, so I made fries out of them one time. I was kind of hoping that they would turn white when cooked, but nope, purple they stayed. I didn't find them terribly appetizing, but I'm sure it was the colour that mentally turned me off. I've still got a few left, maybe will have to try them baked.........and with a blindfold!LOL |
- Posted by valleyrimgirl 2b (My Page) on Tue, Oct 17, 06 at 21:53
My DH and I like the purple potatoes also. The kids, when they were living at home, didn't really like the purple color but ate them anyways 'cause really they taste no different than white potatoes. Last year (spring 2005) McFaydens didn't have any purple potatoes so I ended up buying Caribe (purple outside, white inside). I planted some of last year's Caribe as seed potatoes this spring. They also taste like normal white potatoes. Since I didn't plant my potatoes until mid June the harvest was smaller than usual. Two of my sisters do farmer's markets and both of them had extra this summer so I don't have to worry about getting any from the store this winter. Brenda |

Thank you all! >>Did you eat any yet? Can you take a picture of the middles? Yes I can,...when cooked or raw?...well I can do both. Brenda is right!....they taste same as regular ones. |

Konrad, what did you make/do with all your tomatoes? They look beautiful. I notice that your potatoes have scabs on them. The first five years or so after we added manure to our garden I had a lot of scabs on our potatoes also. Since the scabs are only skin deep I didn't worry about it. Did you just recently fertilize the portion of the garden where the potatoes were planted? Brenda |

Thanks Brenda >>what did you make/do with all your tomatoes? Allot we gave away, some I sold to the a local Pizza Restaurant, some we caned, allot we ate everyday, yesterday we just finished them. I have scabby potatoes every year, some verities are better then others for scabs, it doesn't bother us, after you peal them they are fine. I haven't really fertilized them, the garden is in a low area in the property with black sandy soil and |

Trick question! The answer seems to be that you can't.
I had seen no action out of a large Dryopteris wallichiana this year and figured it had bitten the dust. It's several years old but is in a sort of poor spot, close to the base of a big mock orange and within the root zone of a big willow. So I thought maybe it just got robbed of moisture in early spring. But no! Here we are in LATE AUGUST and I just noticed that the thing has a frond unfurling. Unbelievable. If this had been in a pot I would have ditched it a long time ago. So the motto is: never give up. KarinL |

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

China urges US to take 'responsible' measures
July 21, 2011; China Daily
BEIJING - China on Wednesday urged the United States to take "responsible"
policy measures to raise market confidence in the dollar and US government
debt as international rating agencies warned of a possible downgrade of
the US credit rating amid Washington's debt stalemate.
The State Administration of Foreign Exchange (SAFE), China's foreign
exchange regulator, said in a statement that it has noticed the recent
warnings from international rating agencies about the US credit rating and
the risk of a possible downgrade.
"We hope that the US government can take responsible policy measures to
boost confidence in the international financial markets and to protect the
interests of investors," it said.
Analysts said that SAFE's statement reflected Beijing's concern about the
potential risks in its massive holding of US government debt but China is
unlikely to substantially cut its US bond holdings because that would
weaken the dollar even more.
Beijing's growing stake in the US debt has left its policymakers with
limited options for its $3.2 trillion foreign exchange reserves, much of
which is invested in US government bonds, which are seen as one of the
most liquid investment products in the international financial markets.
"The US debt ... is an important investment product for domestic and
international investors," said the statement, published on the regulator's
website on Wednesday.
SAFE also said that it was not feasible for China to invest its foreign
exchange reserves in global commodities such as gold and oil because that
would push up prices and hurt domestic enterprises and consumers.
"The key issue for Beijing is to find alternative and effective ways to
invest its foreign exchange reserves and to slow the rapid pace of its
accumulation. Before that, Beijing really has very limited options," said
Zhuang Jian, senior economist with the Asian Development Bank.
China, the largest foreign holder of US Treasury bonds, increased its
holdings by $7.3 billion to $1.16 trillion in May, the second straight
month it increased its US debt holdings, according to the US Treasury
As the Aug 2 deadline approaches for US lawmakers to reach a deal to raise
the debt ceiling, rating agencies including Fitch Ratings and Moody's
Investors Service warned that any missed debt payments by Washington will
result in a downgrade of the US sovereign rating.
"Agreement on a credible fiscal consolidation strategy will secure the US
AAA status; failure to do so will inevitably weaken the sovereign credit
profile and may result in a sovereign rating downgrade," Fitch said in a
statement on Monday.
A US government default on its debt is widely seen as unlikely, especially
after the Republican-controlled House of Representatives passed a bill on
federal spending cuts and a constitutional budget balance amendment in
exchange for raising the federal debt ceiling, analysts said.
But Chinese analysts warned about the loose monetary policy of the US
Federal Reserve, which could lead to an increasing inflow of speculative
capital and put greater pressure on China's already high foreign exchange
"Any further easing of the monetary policy by the Federal Reserve could
result in an increasing inflow of hot money and a possible appreciation of
the yuan, which will endanger the country's massive foreign exchange
reserves," said Dong Yuping, an economist with the Institute of Finance
and Banking at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences.
"China's dollar-denominated assets will face greater risk if the
government doesn't take measures to respond to the trend of a weakening
dollar," he said.
SAFE said in the statement that the value of the country's foreign
exchange reserves will not be affected because of the yuan's rise against
the dollar, unless the reserves were converted into yuan-denominated
assets, which would not happen.

Milestones and Turning Points in Film History The Year 1926 |
(by decade and year) Introduction | Pre-1900s | 1900s | 1910s | 1920s | 1930s | 1940s | 1950s 1960s | 1970s | 1980s | 1990s | 2000s | 2010s |
Event and Significance | |
In New York, Warner Brothers debuted Don Juan, the first Vitaphone sound film (developed by Bell Telephone Laboratories in 1926) and the first publically-shown 'talkie' with synchronized sound effects and orchestral music (but no dialogue) - starring John Barrymore. It was the first mainstream film that replaced the traditional use of a live orchestra or organ for the soundtrack (a recorded musical score of the New York Philharmonic), and successfully coordinated audio sound on a recorded disc synchronized to play in conjunction with a projected motion picture. | |
Russian director Sergei Eisenstein's classic landmark film Potemkin (1925) (aka Battleship Potemkin or Bronenosets Potyomkin) opened in the US (in New York City in December, 1926). | |
British director Alfred Hitchcock's first completed and credited feature film, the melodramatic The Pleasure Garden (1925), was released in the US in 1926. The silent film was made after years of Hitchcock serving as a title designer, set designer, writer, and assistant director. It wasn't released in the UK until 1927, after the success of The Lodger (1927). The film told of the divergent life-paths followed by a chorus girl (Patsy Brand) and an aspiring dancer/ingenue (Carmelita Geraghty). | |
The early death of 31 year-old silent screen star and idol Rudolph Valentino (dubbed the "Latin Lover"), noted for 14 films (including The Sheik (1921) and the sequel The Son of the Sheik (1926), and The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse (1921)) in a short seven-year career, caused a frenzy among his fans during his New York City funeral, attended by over 100,000 people. He died following surgery for a ruptured appendix and gastric ulcers, due to peritonitis. | |
Uninhibited silent film starlet Clara Bow, known for her sexual exploits, signed a contract with Paramount Studios, but refused to sign the customary "morality" clause. She was offered a contingent $500,000 annual bonus by Paramount, provided that she kept herself free of scandal during its tenure - she failed to collect with numerous affairs, off-screen romances and highly-publicized scandals. | |
The oldest surviving feature-length animated film (with silhouette animation techniques and color tinting), The Adventures of Prince Achmed (aka Die Abenteuer des Prinzen Achmed), was released in Germany. | |
Director Robert J. Flaherty's Moana (1926) (aka Moana: A Romance of the South Seas) was released, a Paramount studio-financed, follow-up sequel (of sorts) after his earlier landmark film Nanook of the North (1922) about Eskimo life. The review of the South Seas film by "Moviegoer" John Grierson in the New York Sun was the first time the term "documentary" was used to describe a film ("being a visual account of events in the daily life of a Polynesian youth, has documentary value"). In actuality, it was cinema's first docu-fiction film, reconstructing the traditional life of islanders in Samoa in its semi-fictional tale. | |
Flesh and the Devil (1926), released late in the year, marked the start of the famous (on and off-screen) romance of Greta Garbo and John Gilbert during Hollywood's Golden Age. It was Garbo's third American silent film for MGM, following The Torrent (1926) (Garbo's US film debut) and The Temptress (1926), and the first of six films she made for preferred director Clarence Brown. The film had three extended love scenes and was reportedly the first Hollywood film with an open-mouthed French kiss between the two stars - who were obviously in love in real-life. It also featured the first-ever horizontal-position kisses in American film. This was the first of four films Garbo made with lover John Gilbert - two of which were directed by Brown (Flesh and the Devil (1926) and A Woman of Affairs (1928)), and two by other directors: Edmund Goulding (Love (1927)) and Rouben Mamoulian (Queen Christina (1933)). | |
Future star John Wayne (a former prop man) made his debut feature film appearance as an uncredited football player (on the Yale team) in the college comedy-drama, Brown of Harvard (1926). | |
Actor-producer-star Douglas Fairbanks' ultimate pirate film (silent), The Black Pirate, was historically significant - the adventure swashbuckler was the first full-length blockbuster color film. (The two-color process was first introduced in The Toll of the Sea (1922) - see above, and in some sequences of Ben-Hur: A Tale of the Christ (1925) - also, see above.) It boasted the use of an early experimental Technicolor (two-color) process, although it was also filmed in black and white. | |
A newer and better recording system for putting synchronized sound-on-film called Movietone was developed by Theodore W. Case and Earl I. Sponable for William Fox of the Fox Film Corporation. In this system, the sound track was placed onto the actual film next to the picture frames, rather than on a separate synchronized disc as in the Vitaphone system. |

Student Loans from Nelnet
Please Note**
Nelnet is no longer offering student loans. Its loan products have been supplanted by the Federal Direct Loan program. The following information has been maintained for historical referencing purposes.
Focusing on Consolidation Offers
Student loan provider Nelnet offers students many of the same student loan products as do similar lenders, but with a decided emphasis on student loan consolidation. Nearly every student loan provider offers some form of consolidation loan for students, but it is almost a second thought to the process. Nelnet puts their student loan consolidation products at the top of their class.
Student Loan Consolidation
The high cost of college means that some students are graduating with many thousands of dollars in college costs to pay for. In some cases it could take years to pay off the loans. Unless you find a well-paying job right out of college, which is becoming less and less likely, chances are you will need to consider loan consolidation.
For many students and borrowers in general, debt consolidation can be an embarrassing topic. But the risk is that you could default on loans while struggling to meet high monthly payments. Should you default on a loan your future financial climate can be marred for years. So consider consolidating.
The representatives at Nelnet are trained to advise you regarding repayment problems and loan consolidation. Did you know that you could consolidate Nelnet loans while you are still in school? This is a useful option especially if you want to lock into a low interest rate.
Two types of loan consolidation products are available to Nelnet customers: federal student loan consolidation and private student loan consolidation.
Loan Programs
Nelnet participates in the federal Stafford loan program, Perkins Loan program, as well as the PLUS loan program that features two types of loans; one for parents and the other for graduate students.
Explore Nelnet's competitive private educational loans to fill in the gaps where federal loans fall short. Borrow as little or as much as you need at interest rates designed for students.
Nelnet specializes in a comprehensive web-based customer service. You can access all of Nelnet's products and services, as well as apply for loans and manage all aspects of your loan account.
Lender Products
Besides being a direct financial aid provider, Nelnet also delivers system integration solutions for other lenders and schools.

At last year's Interior Design Show in Toronto, Ikea pulled the sheets off of their bold country kitchen look, an aesthetic departure from the blonde-wood kitchens with which their showrooms had become associated. The kitchen won the show's Gold Booth Award and our entry on it quickly caught Facebook fire.
At this year's IDS, the design pendulum has swung the other way: Ikea's display kitchen features a distinctly sleek and modern look, one reportedly inspired by "the classic fashion combination of a black dress and pearls." In sharp contrast to last year's kitchen, where pots, pans, and kitchen storage objects were all made visible, this year's kitchen design renders most objects invisible, tucking them away behind glossy surfaces. In a second nod to the fashion world the backsplash tiles are meant to evoke patent leather quilted handbags and the island has received special focus.
"Our research shows that the bulk of kitchen activity, whether it is food prep, entertaining dinner guests or homework, happens at the island," explains Madeleine Löwenborg-Frick, IKEA Canada's Public Relations Manager. "We switched things around and used the virtually indestructible HanStone on the island and granite on the worktops. The island features two levels, making it even more functional for all of the daily activities it accommodates." (HanStone is a moldable, compound stone material produced by blending quartz, silica and a polymer resin binding agent; the resultant surface is both durable and considered ideal for food preparation.)
Will Ikea's modern change-up give it a second shot at the Gold? Too early to tell, as it just went up yesterday and the show's still got two days left.

OK, below is a list of my current library (at least as I remember it): Complete Joy of Homebrewing How to Brew Classic Styles Yeast: The Practical Guide Homebrewers Garden Brew Ware Extreme Brewing <-Forgot that one I am planning on getting "Designing Great Beers" next, but I thought I'd get some opinions on other books I might think about picking up also. Any suggestions?? Thanks.
That's a pretty good library already. Designing Great Beers is a great book, and I still go back to it everytime I try out a new style. I would suggest some more expensive books, but I don't think many people are as stupid as me and willing to spend several hundred dollars on a few books.
If you don't mind, list your suggestions....I'll put them on my wish list. Thanks
+1 for Designing Great Beers!
-Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.
I always tend to refer back to The Brewmaster's Bible by Stephen Snyder - packed with lots of good info and recipies.
I really have enjoyed Radical Brewing, by Randy Mosher. If you are a fan of Belgian beer, check out Brew Like a Monk and also Farmhouse Ales. Both are great books, and Brew Like a Monk has become something of a philosophical manifesto for me. Edit: Forgot to mention Brew Chem 101. Some of it goes over my head, but it's nice to have a technical reference for what is happening during fermentation.
3rd Edition Technology Brewing and Malting by Wolfgang Kunze Microbiological Methods MBAA Practical Handbook for the Specialty Brewer - This one speaks more about commercial brewing though, so it may not be of interest to you.
I got Beer Captured for Christmas and I'm enjoying it. I picked up the ingredients for a recipe in the book tonight and I'm looking forward to brewing my first IPA.
Naked Pint is a good read.

Initiatives Are Designed to Create Jobs; Support New York City's Workforce,Small Businesses and Homeowners; and Provide Targeted Relief
Relies on Federal, State and Existing City Dollars, Limited New Funds
Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg announced 18 initiatives to help New Yorkers weather the increasing challenges brought on by the economic downturn in the global, national and local economies. The initiatives are designed to create jobs, support the City's workforce, small businesses and homeowners, and provide targeted relief to the City's most vulnerable populations. The initiatives are a result of Mayor Bloomberg pressing City agencies to respond to emerging needs primarily with Federal, State and existing City resources. The Mayor was joined at the announcement, which took place in the Blue Room of City Hall, by City Council Speaker Christine Quinn, Deputy Mayor for Economic Development Robert C. Lieber, Deputy Mayor for Health and Human Services Linda Gibbs, Small Business Services Commissioner Robert W. Walsh, Economic Development Corporation President Seth Pinsky, Human Resources Administration Commissioner Robert Doar, Department of Consumer Affairs Commissioner Jonathan Mintz, and Council Members Gail Brewer, Mathieu Eugene, Lew Fidler, Miguel Martinez, Albert Vann and David Yassky.
"In all likelihood, the current economic downturn will not end quickly," said Mayor Bloomberg. "The best thing that we can do for the long haul is to continue to do what makes New York a great place to live and do business: continue to reduce crime to historic lows, make our schools the best in any big city in the nation, enhance our already great quality of life and diversify our economy. But many New Yorkers face harsh short-term problems right now. The initiatives we're announcing today are designed to help New Yorkers tackle them. We can't eliminate the burden many will feel and we can't act as a substitute for failing or missing federal assistance in every case, but by creating real jobs and providing targeted assistance to small businesses, homeowners and vulnerable New Yorkers, we can provide meaningful help to those who need it most. To do it at a time when we've directed City agencies to tighten their belts in response to looming budget deficits, we've leveraged Federal, State, and private dollars, along with a significant refocusing of City spending. These are preliminary steps – as economic conditions and needs change, we'll adjust what we're doing to expand what is working, remove what isn't and find ways to address problems we couldn't anticipate. But the initiatives we are embarking on today, with the cooperation of Council Speaker Christine Quinn and our partners in the City Council, will provide meaningful assistance to many New Yorkers who need it now, as we continue to tackle our challenges together as a City."
"Today's announcement will offer real assistance to New Yorkers who are feeling the impact of the economic crisis," said Speaker Quinn. "These are smart initiatives that reach out to a range of New Yorkers in challenging circumstances. From New Yorkers who've recently lost their jobs in the financial industry, to homeowners who are facing foreclosure, to the most vulnerable New Yorkers who are eligible for federal food stamp assistance but who are not enrolled; these targeted proposals will help homeowners, small business owners, and working people – the very same people who make New York City the greatest and most resilient city in the world. I want to thank Mayor Bloomberg for working closely with the Council on these initiatives. We in the Council stand ready to help New Yorkers weather the global economic crisis. Getting ahead of this storm won't be easy, but with all of the people here today stepping up to the challenge together; I'm confident we'll help New Yorkers deal with this economic downturn, in tangible ways that can make an immediate impact."
The 18 initiatives are:

so... has anybody tried a biochar/perennial peanut combination to keep nematodes off the roses? i've had great results with just biochar, and i've been adding both into the soil around my roses, i was wondering if anybody could tip me off as to what kind of results to expect. i know both are supposed to tilt the balance away from the plant parasite nematodes, but dont' know how well they combine when doing this together. |

Some one in Florida mentioned she'll try pine fines (pH 4.5, quite acidic) against nematodes. I mix pine fines into my soil to lower its pH ... the worms hate it at first. Since my soil pH is alkaline at 7.7, I also put sulfur in the planting hole ... that killed all the earthworms! It's good to check your soil pH first, before using pine fines. See the procedure below to get your soil pH by using $1 of distilled water and 50 cents of red cabbage. I wrote that for the English Roses forum: Good luck on your experiments with biochar. I'm rooting for your success! |
Here is a link that might be useful: Cheapest way to test soil pH using red cabbage
French and African marigolds, in that order of effectiveness, have been shown to kill bad nematodes through their roots. I have them around my rose bushes, with other companion plants like garlic, mints, lemon balm, and bee balm. Wood ash is supposed to work well, and diatomaceous earth..(don't breath it in--as bad as silica and asbestos for lungs, but harmless, otherwise) ..It's my strawberries, even in pots, that snails or nematodes are chowing down on....NOT my roses... |

"out of all of the samples we ordered, the one really stood out! the texture and quality of the paper is amazing, and the design is elegant enough but yet still casual, perfect for our outdoor wedding! we were able to completely customize the colors as well, so they match our colors exactly. We did meadow green blooms with navy accents and grey font. they are stunning in person!"
"This card is absolutely beautiful. I was able to use a custom color and the designers got it right on the first review. The review process was very simple and the cards looked just as wonderful in person as in the proof."
"I used this design for my wedding invitations and highly recommend it. We ordered it in the pearly paper and in a custom "meadow" green color which matched the bridesmaid dresses. It was beautiful. They arrived very fast too. The envelopes in silver were really nice as well."
"We were looking for a simple but elegant wedding announcement to send out, and this was perfect! We added an engagement photo on the back and chose the dark gray color for the front. The overall quality of the announcement is just great - the photo looks beautiful, the paper is a great weight, and it just looks classy."
"Love these invitations! I was able to customize it to suit my individual needs and preferences. It was nice to have a designer review the card before it got printed. I received so many compliments on these invitations with many saying how elegant they were."
