When potting up tomatoes, the standard practice is to pot them deeper than they were before.
What about peppers? Do you deepen them up? I've read that it is a bad idea to plant fruit trees any deeper, as it can cause disease. (peach trees) |
Follow-Up Postings:
I usually plant peppers deeper as I do the toms. |

I repot every thing deeper except trees. They develop more roots. |

I repot everything deeper and so far have not had any stems rot. |

Saturday, July 14, 2012
BRADENTON, Fla. – The Los Angeles Blues took their second victory of the weekend as goals by Max Griffin and Matt Fondy earned a 2-0 victory against Antigua Barracuda FC on Saturday afternoon at the IMG Academy. Griffin opened the scoring in the first half before Fondy's late strike put the game away.
The Blues opened with more possession, but the first clear chance came to the Barracudas in the eight minute when Peter Byers was able to beat the offside trap and break in on goal. The Antiguan international was met by Blues goalkeeper Carl Woszczynski, who came off his line quickly to make the save. Three minutes later Antigua went close again as Kimoi Alexander's shot from 25 yards went just wide of the left post.
Los Angeles' first reach chance came in the 18th minute as Josh Suggs made a good run from left back into the penalty area. His low cross was blocked at the near post, but Bryan Burke followed up, only for his volley to go straight at Keita DeCastro in the Antigua goal.
The opening goal came from a similar move in the 25th minute, with Suggs again finding space on the left, and his low cross was met at the near post by Griffin, who flicked his shot into the right corner of the net. The goal was Griffin's first since joining the Blues on loan from Orlando City earlier this week, and his second of the season.
The goal appeared to deflate Antigua, and Griffin had a chance to double the lead five minutes later when he was played into the left side of the penalty area by a chipped pass by Burke, only for DeCastro to save. Antigua went close to an equalizer seven minutes before the halftime break, but Kerry Skepple's inventive chip from the top-right corner of the penalty area drifted just wide of the Blues' left post.
The game slowed in the Florida heat in the second half, but Antigua had some chances to get back on level terms. Byers forced a save from Woszczynski in the 54th minute after being played into the left side of the penalty area by Matt Aldred, cutting back at the goal line onto his right foot before blasting on goal, and Quinton Griffith's low free kick went just wide of the left post two minutes later.
Los Angeles had a good chance to double their lead with 15 minutes to go as Brian Farber drove a curling shot just wide of the left post, and Griffith again tried his luck for Antigua from long range with eight minutes to go, only to see his shot go wide.
A minute later, the Blues wrapped the game up as Bryan Burke picked out Fondy onside in the left side of the penalty area, and the halftime substitute put his finish into the bottom-right corner of the net. Fondy came close again moments later, only to be denied by DeCastro, but the Blues would see out the victory comfortably.
Los Angeles returns home for an international friendly next weekend against Guatemalan club Municipal next Saturday night at Titan Stadium, while Antigua has next weekend off before a visit to the Pittsburgh Riverhounds on Friday, July 27 at 7 p.m. at Chartiers Valley Stadium.

Anyone care to opine on blooming season in the Pasadena/Altadena/Eaton Canyon climate area? Previous miserable brushes with Butterfly Bushes (Buddleia or however you spell yours) in my former garden showed me I have the mother of all allergies to these cultivars. Unfortunately I have just detected huge one on the other side of the fence to the charming cottage I now rent which explains why I've been coughing myself to nearly complete incapacity for a month. Researching I understand these to have a long blooming season which I've already suffered some time through and it will surely take some time despite the emergency to get moved. I'm trying to determine if I'm rushing to get out of here while sick only to have the season end and miss several peaceful months here or if I'm prudently trying to avoid the ambulance. Thanks |

I don't know about your area, but they bloom until frost for me here. If you like where you are and plan on staying, perhaps you could speak to the owner of the garden and offer to pay for a replacement plant? I know if one of my plants was having that serious of an effect on a neighbor I'd be willing to dig it out and replace it with something. Vitex is similar from what I understand (at least in looks)-perhaps see if you're also allergic to that and if not, offer it as a replacement? |

Veteran Eagles arrive, eager to start Kelly Era More than one hour before the deadline for arrival, all 90 Philadelphia Eagles had reported for training camp. It's a new era in Philadelphia. Chip Kelly holds his first full squad practice Friday, and the pads come on Sunday when the team moves over to Lincoln Financial Field and opens the doors to fans. Veterans showed up Thursday ready to go and eager to start fresh after last year's miserable 4-12 finish under Andy Reid. Wide receivers DeSean Jackson and Jeremy Maclin expressed excitement over playing in Kelly's innovative offense. Defensive players couldn't wait to try out a new 3-4 scheme. There's quite a buzz circulating through camp, which is being held at the team's practice facility in Philadelphia after 17 years at Lehigh University. |

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 Honey AKA Pipa!
Facts about Honey AKA Pipa
- Breed: American Pit Bull Terrier
- Color: Red/Golden/Orange/Chestnut - With White
- Age: Adult
- Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
- Sex: Female
Honey AKA Pipa's Info...
I am already spayed, housetrained, purebred, up to date with shots, not good with kids, and good with dogs.
Honey, now known as Pipa is now at Fresno Bully Rescue! She is so sweet and may have found a home... but they have many others that are awaiting their forever homes too!! Thanks FBR and PROUD for helping this girl. :)
Other Pets at All Ears Dog Training
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Honey AKA Pipa, a Clovis 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 Clovis, or seeking a American Pit Bull Terrier dog from a breeder in Clovis.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Clovis 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 Clovis 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 Clovis paves the way for another one to be saved.

« September 2013 Table of Contents
Take a five-minute walk down India Street in Portland, Maine, and you'll pass local chain Coffee By Design, Micucci's Italian grocery store and Benkay Japanese Restaurant & Sushi Bar. At the end, cross over Commercial Street to the waterfront, walk past the terminal for Casco Island Ferry Lines to reach Ready Seafood and about a quarter of a million lobsters on the Maine State Pier.
Since 2009 Ready, a wholesale lobster buyer and shipper, has been neighboring the fine-dining restaurants, pubs, boutiques and hotels that dominate Portland's waterfront. The company announced this summer it will be more than doubling its space in the Portland Ocean Terminal to 24,000 square feet, which also doubles its lobster-holding capacity to about half a million.
As it grows, Ready will have company. In 2014, Shucks Maine Lobster from Richmond, Maine, will open a processing plant as part of a 15-year lease developing 19,000 square feet on the same pier. John Hathaway, Shucks president, says his company's move to the city will help it capitalize on lobster's potential as a value-added product.
The development bucks national trends. Seafood processing is mostly tucked away in remote places, offshore in factory ships or driven out of the country entirely by the lure of cheap foreign labor. At the same time, working waterfronts are being crowded out by high rents and other types of development. Here and elsewhere, waterfront is not only vital for marine industries but also is a desirable place to live. According to the National Symposium on Working Waterfronts, the population in the nation's coastal areas increased by almost 50 percent from 1970 to 2010.
"Every time I travel up and down the East Coast — New Hampshire, Massachusetts, North Carolina, Florida — I love the water so I always visit coastal areas," says Brendan Ready, co-founder of Ready Seafood with his brother, John. "It's hard to find a place like Portland that's been able to keep a balance of a real nitty-gritty working waterfront and the culture of the arts and good food. The easy way is just to develop and put the working waterfront in the backseat and develop hotels, restaurants, resorts."
City sites
Four years ago the Maine State Pier was up for competing $100 million-plus development projects but both fell through when the economy fizzled. The controversial proposals reflected Portland's changing waterfront: It has long been a fishing port, but in recent years its economy has shifted from industrial to condominiums and tourist dollars.
With the nature of its waterfront shifting, planners updated the city zoning code in 2010 to help balance uses: Although it allowed more space for non-marine uses those renters are required to contribute to an investment fund to help support infrastructure improvements for the working waterfront.
Today Portland's waterfront continues to be in transition. It was once the center of Maine's groundfish industry, which has seen its fleet shrink from about 350 boats in the 1990s to about 50 today. Recently, the city's planning board granted the owners of the former Cumberland Cold Storage building on Commercial Street to rent to non-marine tenants after they were not able to find a marine user for space reserved for them by zoning.
But on most days a drive down Commercial Street still offers a whiff of fish. The waterfront street is home to Bristol Seafood, North Atlantic, Portland Shellfish Co., Cozy Harbor and Icelandic shipping company Eimskip, which made Portland its center of North American operations earlier this year.
For Ready, the expansion will provide more capacity and efficiency. The new space will feature a spray-shower holding tank system that allows the company to hold more live lobsters in a smaller area. It also keeps them alive longer, which is a benefit in shipping to overseas markets like Asia and in scheduling product for its processing operation, Maine Seafood Ventures, in nearby Scarborough.
"Right now we've outgrown the space in the amount we can ship weekly," says Ready.
John and Brendan Ready, 32 and 31, respectively, began their seafood careers early. Both were running their own lobster boats and traps by age 9. They began the company, which has grown to more than 50 employees, in 2004. The urban location not only provides the company access to that workforce but also an airport, interstate highway as well as the city's restaurants and artistic culture.
"I think it's pretty amazing when 75 percent of your workforce can walk down to work," says Ready, who handles international sales. When customers visit they can experience the industry here by walking local docks, touring facilities, meeting fishermen as they land their catch and enjoying a nice meal afterward.
For their part, Ready says the company works hard to be a good city neighbor.
"Seafood companies have always been almost exiled because they're known for being loud and smelly. We take pride in keeping a clean, good-smelling place to work. It helps create a good fit."
Making it
Like crabs in Baltimore, shrimp in New Orleans and salmon in Alaska, lobster is iconic in Maine; lately it's also been abundant. Landings have exploded in recent years, with a record-breaking 123 million pounds in 2012. But although the catch was 18 million pounds greater than 2011, its $331 million value was a decrease of $3.7 million from the previous year. As a result, Maine lobstermen aren't happy with prices they're getting on the dock, which dropped from $3.19 in 2011 to $2.69 in 2012, on average.
The industry and state have been working to make changes. In March, after a six-year assessment, the Maine lobster fishery earned Marine Stewardship Council certification. In June the state legislature approved a bill that would fund a $3 million-plus marketing campaign paid for by surcharges on licensing fees for lobster harvesters, wholesalers and processors. Maine Gov. Paul LePage declared August to be lobster month and announced that he would be sending every U.S. governor a lobster.
Processing has been growing in the state as well with new plants opening in St. George, Prospect Harbor and Saco. Previously, most Maine lobsters would be sent to Canada for processing, a practice that sparked protests from Eastern Canada's lobstermen who last year blocked trucks from Maine, blaming their low prices on the additional glut.
As Maine lobster enters a new era, Hathaway believes the visibility and heritage Portland offers is important for his company's growth.
"We're pretty hidden right now. We converted an old shoe factory in Richmond into a processing plant. It's working out nicely but we're missing one element, the smell of the sea," he says. "Story is important in the Maine lobster business. We feel that being a small part of the Portland working waterfront heritage gives us authenticity we need to tell our own story of innovation."
Shucks originally wanted to be in Portland but at the time rents were too high for the start-up. "Luckily, Mayor [Michael] Brennan, a politician I have known and respected for a long time, was campaigning door to door in last year's election. He happened to stop at our COO Charlie Langston's home. He asked Charlie's wife if there was anything she was interested in to improve life in Portland. She asked the mayor to help bring Shucks to Portland so that her husband wouldn't have to commute and could spend more time with their kids," says Hathaway.
The mayor didn't give them special treatment, he says, but worked hard with other city staff and politicians to preserve working waterfront and help the move happen. It's an effort, he says, that will pay off for both the city and the lobster industry: Hathaway says there's tremendous potential for the raw lobster meat market: Shucks is selling food, not a live animal. Being in Portland is important in making that shift happen, he believes.
"Yes, there are many other places we could go that are far less expensive. But no place tells the story as well as the Portland working waterfront. The energy and synergy is tremendous," he says. In Portland it seems that lobster and city culture are the perfect combination.
"With the tremendous foodie scene and innovative chefs like Sam Hayward, Steve Curry, Chris Gould and many, many more; with the innovative young Maine lobster entrepreneurs like John Jordan at Calendar Islands Maine Lobster, Luke Holden at Cape Seafood and Luke's Lobster, and John and Brendan Ready at Ready [Seafood]; and many more energetic Portland people, there was no question that we wanted to be a small part of that universe," says Hathaway. "Cheap rent isn't the only reason to be in business."

September is just around the corner, and we're feeling nostalgic for our favorite fairs!
The Tunbridge World's Fair has been in existence since 1857, and has remained largely unchanged since its debut over 150 years ago. This year, it runs from September 15-18 in the tiny town of Tunbridge, VT, and features mainly old-world attractions like pony pulling, sheepdog trials, and harness racing.
The Martha's Vineyard Agricultural Society Fair celebrated its 150th anniversary this year. A little more old-world meets new-world, the fair is an attraction that can please all with its farm animals, fried foods, traditional crafts, and plenty of rides. Our friend from RISD owns the local smoke pig roast stand, below.

Government Technology Featured ArticleOctober 16, 2012
Dubai DED Launches App to Help with Business Licensing and TrackingBy Oliver VanDervoort, Contributing Writer As technological advances continue to speed forward, more and more government entities are finding they need new and innovative ways to stay ahead of the curve. The Department of Economic Development (DED) in Dubai has found a way to handle their caseload when it comes to business registration and licensing service using a new smartphone application. When it comes to agencies like Dubai's DED, it can become somewhat difficult to manage and maintain such an unwieldy database of business licenses and their registration status. Commenting on the latest service enhancements in a recent statement, Mohammed Shael Al Saadi, CEO of DED's Business Registration and Licensing BRL Sector, said the department focuses on keeping pace with the technological advances in Dubai and the UAE, chiefly to enhance the ease of doing business This particular app has quite a few different features that make it easy to find a company's trade name, the business license info, the recent activities that have been recorded by the DED as well as the status of any transactions going on with the business. The DED is also tooting its own horn by pointing out that this is the first kind of application like this in the world. If this department has success using this kind of an application it would seem to be reasonable to assume that applications like this will catch on. Al Saadi added that his department would be looking to make developments and additions to the app as the DED sees fit. Edited by Brooke Neuman LATEST GOVERNMENT TECHNOLOGY NEWS

Defining Green: Innovation, Labeling and Self-examination
By: Frederic Holzberger
Posted: February 24, 2010, from the March 2010 issue of Skin Inc. magazine.
page 2 of 5
An easy way to immediately help reduce your electrical usage is to install room occupancy sensors to control the lighting when the room is not in use. A variety of companies offer room occupancy and vacancy sensors that can be retrofitted to suit various existing rooms, and these help to dim or turn off lights when the rooms aren't in use. Many dimmer and sensor options use minimally invasive techniques, such as radio frequencies, to detect occupancy, and also provide enough flexibility to control the level of light, allowing these systems to be used in treatment rooms, as well.
Also available are room-dimming systems that utilize LED technology to show when energy is being saved, the light glowing brighter the more energy that is saved, and eco-friendly timers that automatically shut off of fans or lights in a room after 1–30 minutes. The bottom line is, a commercial dimmer can save up to $85 per year in electricity costs compared to a regular light switch. And, off course, the more you dim, the larger the savings and the shorter the payback time.
Other energy-saving devices to consider as well include LEDs as light sources; window film to control light and heat; and daylighting, the practice of using natural light to illuminate building spaces. Becoming more popular in building specification today, daylighting reduces the need for electric lighting while providing illumination at a fraction of the cost. And with its natural, open feel, it's a wise move to consider employing daylighting in your next construction project.
True green
Everyone is looking for words beyond the overused terms of "green" and "environmentally friendly" to measure the environmental impact of a product, even in how people define their lifestyles and business practices. These words have been used so frequently they no longer hold the weight they first did several years ago.
Consumers want to know the product or service they are buying is authentic in its environmental claims. This is especially true given the fact that consumers are willing to pay more for environmentally and socially responsible products or services. So how do you navigate responsible purchasing, and guide your lifestyle and business practices? You arm yourself with knowledge.

The charity also provides welfare support for Royal Air Force musicians who now routinely undertake 'Out of Area' deployments in Afghanistan and other operational theatres.
In accordance with its governing document and the Charities Act 1993, the Royal Air Force Music Charitable Trust is administered by a Board of Trustees who meet regularly throughout the year at Headquarters Music Services, Royal Air Force Northolt and RAF Cranwell.
To ensure a wide and open debate on all development plans, the Board of Trustees also invites representatives from the established Bands of the Royal Air Force along with independent advisors to attend committee meetings whenever possible,

Dr. Ira Edgerton Dwight AndrewsPastor FBC Hillsborough, 1906-1907
In 1906, the church minutes indicate that "on Sunday the 30th day of Sept. Bro. Ira E D Andrews was invited to preach for us." The following summer, July 28, 1907, Andrews offered his resignation to take effect the first of October.1The following brief synopsis was compiled from information found on the Internet and is arranged chronologically. Ira Edgerton Dwight Andrews was born ca 1875, parents and location unknown. He attended UNC at Chapel Hill receiving an AB degree in teaching in 1898. At the time, he was listed as being 23 years old, 5'9'' tall and weighing 145 lbs. 2 He is also listed as being on the law class roll at UNC, but there is no indication that he graduated with a law degree.3 He served in the NC House of Representatives in 1905 as a Democrat from Chapel Hill, NC and was assigned to the following standing committees: Education, Appropriations, Judiciary, Trustees of University, Revision of Law, Institute for Blind and Insane Asylum.4Andrews penned the following for the Christian Index, Atlanta, Georgia, published on September 8, 1921. It seems a fitting tribute to his life's work. Gentleness is a composite virtue. Its basis is love, its expression is kindness, its purpose is helpfulness. It rests undisturbed and all the conflicts that may arise for it recognize its depth. It is a characteristic of Divinity for the Psalmist has said, "Thy gentleness hath made me great." (Psalms 18:35.) It is a virtue of humanity for by it the people rejoice. It is power without noise, faith without sign, guidance without force. It entertains no worry; it yields to no haste. ... It stays the heart that is wavering and sees through the chastening of the good. It is an uplift to the beggar and a grace to the benefactor. It sweetens the draught on the wanderer's lips, and reminds him of home and mother's caresses. It shames the heart of the ingrate and moves the scorner to praise.11References:

How to Have a Car Boot Sale
A car boot sale can be a great way to make some quick cash, or to help get rid of some of those things lying around doing nothing around your home. However, having a successful sale will depend on many different things, and hopefully this article will show how to make your sale a great one!
1Get permission from your local council about having your sale. It is a criminal offence in the United Kingdom to hold boot sales in specific locations without a license. Punishment can include, but is not limited to, hefty fines, which is far from what you would want as a result. Knowing you have gained the proper permissions to do this will give you peace of mind, as well as reassuring customers you are not a trouble maker. If you don't, this reason alone could deter them. Putting a a copy of your permission letter up at your sale will help as well.Ad
2Get things ready. Sort out things you want to sell. Make sure you have at least enough to fill your car boot. This can range from anything, from toys,to antiques, to a deck of playing cards. Anything really does go at a car boot sale!
3Decide your prices that you are going to sell your goods for. Bear in mind that most potential buyers are usually bargain hunters, so to get more stock sold, try and lower the price a fraction. This will not only help more stock to be sold, but also earn you a reputation as a great place to go in the future.
4Advertise! People are not going to come to your sale if they don't know about it. Why not try making some posters, or posting/handing out leaflets?
5Carefully wrap/box up items securely but easy enough to unwrap on the day. There is nothing like getting to your location and struggling to set up your sale. This can be potentially embarrassing and damage your reputation. However, if you are having the sale outside our home, wrapping up products is not always necessary, except for in the event of bad weather etc.
6Arrive at your sale destination. Be sure to get there early to get a good spot, as well as getting your products all set out nicely. Remember, presentation can make or break your sale. A messy table will not attract as many customers as a clean and tidy looking one.
7Start selling! This is the fun part, as you are going to make money. Remember to be friendly, but do not be afraid to report trouble makers. Also, keep an eye out for thieves. A place like this can be a heaven for thieves. Keep an eye on your items and hard earned cash at all times!
8Once the sale is over, remember to leave the area just as you found it, and start to pack away any unsold items you may have left over.
9Go home, and start counting the money you have made! Hopefully you will have made some serious money, which can then help in many ways. Whether it helps paying the bills, buying gifts for Christmas, or even treating yourself, it will certainly help.Ad

- If you're selling DVDs or CDs, always put them to the side so the buyers can read the title. Most of the time, buyers can't be bothered to flick through all the DVDs or CDs because it can take too long.
- Don't put up your prices too high though either. This will deter buyers, and leave you with a lot of stock remaining towards the end of the sale!
- Price things more than you really want. Then it's easier to get the prices you want. This is a trick commonly used all over the United Kingdom - the home of the car boot sale, today. Sometimes you can make 10% - 20% more money for your items.
- Don't give in to pressure all the time. Sometimes customers can push their luck and try and get an item a lot cheaper than your asking price. Be firm but fair. Always have an ideal price you would want to take and then your lowest offer you would take and try to compromise.
- Do not sell dangerous items such as knifes, guns or drugs(even cutlery could be classed as dangerous). These could be used against somebody in a bad way, and as a result you can then be punished for supplying them.
- Never be violent or aggressive, as this will ruin your reputation, and again, you could get in serious trouble with the law.
- Watch out for traders. These are people who come really early to buy things, and then sell them for a higher price at their own stall. This is illegal, so be sure to so stop somebody if they try to buy unnecessary amounts of random things. If you see an item you sold to somebody on their stall, tell a security guard immediately.
- Never sell fake items, as this can land you in some trouble with the law, and even cost you time in prison, or a hefty fine.If your product is fake at least state it and do not attempt to sell it as a real item.
- Watch out for people who steal, as when you back is turned people would take your items for sale especially when the traders are around as they are least afraid to open closed boxes or to nag about what you are going to sell.

Joe was born March 4, 1920 to Charles L. Nanny and Gela McNabb Nanny in Almo, Kentucky. His family moved to Kerr County, Texas when he was 9. Joe spent his younger years cowboying and breaking horses. He also made quite a name for himself as a rough-stock rider at many rodeos in the Hill Country and South Texas. In 1942, Joe was drafted into the U.S. Army. He was sent to Ft. Riley, Kansas to be in the mounted Cavalry and quickly made his way up the ranks to Sergeant. He was honorably discharged in 1946, but the memories of his cavalry days remained vivid in his mind for the rest of his life. Joe worked for several different ranches after the war and raised and trained many working stock dogs. In 1961, he moved his family to Barnhart to work for ES Mayer, Jr. Joe remained with the Mayer Ranch for well over 30 years.
Joe was preceded in death by his parents, three of his sisters: Freda, Charlene and Dorthea, and his youngest son, Charles Lee Nanny. He is survived by his former wife and the mother of his children, Yetta Lou Masters, son Henry and wife Joan Nanny of San Saba, son John and wife BJ Nanny of Barnhart, and son Roscoe Nanny of Mertzon, his sisters: Bobbie Nell Crider of Medina, Pauline Rogers of Vilonia, Arkansas and Ann Parrish of Kerrville, and numerous grandchildren, great grandchildren and great-great grandchildren. Honorary Pallbearers will be Steve Mayer, Ernie Mayer, John Mayer, Cody Sawyer, Jeff Nanny and Randall Edwards
Graveside services will be in Barnhart at 2:00 p.m. on Friday, October 11.

I remember once a looooong time ago on one of the forums here. Someone ask...."What are you using in your home that is designed for something totally different.?"
Such as....An old wooden ironing board being used for a plant stand. I have one of those...Also use an old weathered ladder for a quilt rack in my bed room. How about you? patti |

Oh, kewl! I LOVE this post! LOL Let's see: Okay, I'm using a "blond" and black end table as a table for my printer. My son's "Bozo" mug (he's 36 now - son, not Bozo!) is a pencil holder on my computer desk. My DH's grandfather's wooden checkerboard hangs on the computer room wall. Six motorcyle helmets are hung as "decoration" on the wall in here, also. Also have an old weathered piece of white board with the word "Sun" painted on it in red that hangs over our tanning bed. Guess that's it in the computer room where I'm sitting! LOL I'll get back to ya later on the other rooms in our house. Next? |

Well, two things I can think of. A small wooden child's chair as a plant stand and a mirror from an old dresser used as just a mirror in my living room. Sheree |
I have a vintage potty chair that now holds a pot of faux roses, an old metal breadbox stores my telephone books in the kitchen, a antique milk crate with legs became a side table when I added a piece of glass to the top, a dresser scarf is now a valance with the help of curtain clips and lastly a old copper boiler on top of my entertainment center has become my cat's favorite resting/hiding spot (cat's idea, not mine). Good thread Patti! I have one of those wooden ladders used as a quilt rack too! |
I have alot of antique floor grates and ceiling ones that I use for table tops, or to hang on the wall as art, and have one grate on top of an old sewing singer iron stand. In the basement I have a bifold shuttered door standing in the corner with a ficus tree in front of it. On the table is an old fan and a lamp. Years ago I brought in an old screen door and put it in the living room and my family thought I was nuts, except my brother. He knows :"Cool" when he sees it.........trrrrrrrrrp |

Okay, I'll describe what's in another room now: LOL In the main bathroom I have a black wooden tv cabinet that I use for storage of towels, tissue, etc. I also have a small wooden "Tithing/Collection" box in there that my DGD uses as a stepstool to reach the sink. I bought it at a sale. It had been taken from a church that had stopped having services. We briefly thought about asking people to drop in money in order to use the "facilities", but decided that would probably be rude!! LOL |
I have an old tredle sewing machine in the living room that is being used as a lamp table. An old black "oil heater" that has a plant on it. A floor model radio, No insides in it that stores my old magazines I haven't been able to give up yet. Several old metal stools of different colors and rust that are plant stands or can be used for seating if needed. Also one very old high chair minus the tray that I keep a plant sitting on just to keep the grandkids from sitting on it. One big Pickle jar with tin lid and handle with a couple sets of white Christmas lights in it that doubles as a "mood" lamp. Also an old kerosene lamp hanging with the lights in it too. I love them when lit...almost like candle light. Porcelain "thunder mugs" holding vineing plants patti |

It's almost like being called, isn't it? I can hear the music from "Close Encounters" playing now. :) Rick, we must be brothers. I used old silverware bent to make handles on a bureau. More things: Visiting baby sleeping in laundry basket And of course, old underwear used as cleaning rags. Ray |
Can't speak for everyone here, but I come from a generation that did not waste the way some people do now. When Ray mentioned 'cleaning' rags...this was What did our parents say? "waste not, want not" Maybe we recyle now because we always have!! Linda |

I have a side of a baby crib hanging on the wall in my kitchen to hold cooking spoons, strainers,ladles ect. I used the headboard of the same crib to paint a sign which come spring will hang outside my home with the name of our prorety on it. I use part of an old ladder t hang dish towels on in the kitchen. I have an old desk that I converted into a microwave holder and bowl shelf. I use the drawers to store silverware and peelers that aren't made to hang. I have a high schol biology table doing duty as an kitchen island in my kitchen. I've a hospital bed that I've converted into a sofa of sorts that sits on my enclosed back porch. An old radio stand that had been stripped out of its parts acts as a video stand for the VCR and some tapes. I've a singer sewing maching base that I use for my answering machine and phone stand. A file cabinet holds my large collection of sewing patterns. An old counter top from another kitchen is the work surface in my sewing room. It sits on top of two two drawer file cabinets. Two two drawer file cabinets and a door have been made into a buffet table in the dining room....a cloth cover hides the parts. I'm sure there's more....I find many things which I don't need to change the function of just the look of. |

Oooh! Wish I had ROOM for an old lab table/island in my kitchen! How neat! I'm the type of person who doesn't envy people driving Jags or BMWs, etc. Now, people who have room for (and use!) old card catalogues and lab tables in their house - that's a different story! LOL |

Sometimes it's not changing the function of something but just changing it's basic look. I have several pieces of furniture I've picked up at garage sales, thrift stores and the curb which got new life just with a fresh coat of paint and a little decorative painting and a quick change of drawer pulls or knobs. There's some it was just a matter of combining the right base with the right top and then painting the whole thing to tie it together. It's not always required we change the function of something to find it useful. Flexiblity I think is key. Being able to see what's there and then go beyond that to achieve something that's new and excites you. |
Now this is my kind of thread ;^) Kitchen: old crock for utensils, hymn book rack for telephone books, toy kitchen stove for cookbook rack DR all manner of old containers for flower arrangements, etc.. Old wooden workbench for sideboard...complete with wooden vise. Another wooden clamp made into a lamp, on the sideboard. Old baskets for serving bread and other sundries, old trunk for storing tablecloths. Old silver pieces for storing spoons etc.. LR CD case for displaying pitcher collection pieces, wooden card catalog for storing music, old toys for display, rolling pin rack for storing flutes and other whistle type instruments, old baskets for storing small instruments and tools for instruments. Old sewing machine for display and USE!!! Old wooden tack cabinet for storage of brass candleholders. Old wooden stools for end tables and plant stands. Mail sorter from the old Crawford, Texas post office, to hold more of the pitcher collection. Crock butter churn for umbrella stand, old dry sink for storage and display, washstand top for coffee table..there's more, but I'll bet you are bored!! |
Hmmm. Where to start? Humidor to stash dressertop miscellaneous That's all I can think of right now. Thanks to all for some great ideas--good thread! |
Hi all. I'm new here and have enjoyed reading this thread. I love recycling, and my favorite thing is a torchier lamp that didn't work. It's now in use as a small occasional table. I shortened the pole and marlbeized it. The picture does not show the details well. It sits by my reading chair, and is just big enough to hold the book or magazine I am reading, and a glass or cup. The "coaster" on the table top is a tiny little tin pie pan that belonged to my mother. While you're looking, feel free to browse around the rest of my house, and help yourself to a cup of coffee! |
Here is a link that might be useful: My favortie recycled thing
This is also my kind of thread...waste not want not!!! Old pinic basket to hold pictures,huge crock with old quilt in it and glass top for table,crock made into lamp,wooden carpenters tool box with ivy,a childs toy dresser with drawers that holds grandbabies toys,soap,etc.,old chamber pot that holds magazines,old metal stands for funeral flowers holds my plants in livingroom,old cabinet for entertainment center,sewing machine as bedside table,old canning jars with candy,cough drops and doggie treats,old drawer used for my pencils,paper etc.beside the phone,old box with dividers to hold phone books,old water pitcher to hold flowers. I also love old baskets...have lots that I store things in. Old is in around my house...many of my tresures are family things. Nora |
I have an old metal breadbox in my kitchen that I use to keep my taco seasoning, and other food packets "rodent free" since living on a farm in a very old house we get an occassional uninvited rodent guest. I have an antique wooden nail keg that's my umbrella stand. An antique phongraph console is my tv stand. An old wood 7-up case that held 24 glass bottles is a shadowbox. A couch table got it's legs cut down to become a coffee table. Much to my dogs delight, 5 quart ice cream pail covers become frisbees and are much gentler on her mouth than the "real things". I stitch together upholstery fabric samples into floor pillows. I have one large leaky window in my dining room that has a heavy rag rug for a curtain since it keeps the cold out. |
My favorite is really obvious - an old diaper pin I stick through the hand towel to keep the kids from throwing it on the floor every time they wash their hands. So simple! Old spice jars lining my window sills rooting plants (too cheap to buy them (plants and jars).) |
We don't have this, but some years ago, in England, there was a craze for using an old chamber pot - as a soup tureen......... |
This is just a little thing...but I love it...An old grinder (the type you screw on a table edge to use it) screwed on a window sill or the edge of a shelf with a small floral arrangment in the 'bowl' of the grinder and a small bow on the crank handle. patti |

ooooooo, old forks with paper woven between the prongs, stuck in the dirt for naming herbs. It beats gluing paper to drinking straws or popcical sticks! |

Hopefully your reading this as you sit back in your chair with a big smile on your face because you have already clinched a playoff spot and this week is for fun. Realistically I bet a lot of you are reading this freaking out because you need the W this week to get into the playoffs. We here are some team defense rankings to help you get this important W.
Around this time of year a new factor comes into my rankings…..Which teams still have something to play for and which teams are basically holding "live" auditions for next season. The only good part about teams holding said auditions is usually one or two players step up and earn their spot on the roster next year by making game changing plays. That's nice but I try not to bank on it. Couple of teams can punch their playoff tickets this week and should shut down their opponents.
This is a HUGE Sunday for a lot of fantasy footballers out there so make sure to watch and ask your questions here on Sunday morning 90 minutes before kick off.
Here are my week 13 team defense rankings
1. San Francisco 49ers – The 9ers D has been rolling the last couple of weeks and as they get closer to clinching a playoff spot I think the 9ers come out firing vs. St. Louis this week. StL's offensive line will have their work cut out for them with the 9ers front 4 which usually leads to the all important INT's.
2. Baltimore Ravens – Didn't think i'd see Baltimore up this high again this year. A rivalry match up vs. a Charlie Batch lead Pittsburgh Steelers usually gets you shot up the rankings. Pitt had trouble holding onto the ball last week and I can see Baltimore creating at least 2 turn overs this week.
3. New England Patriots – New England's D has been on fire as well as of late and currently in standard scoring leagues NE is the #2 ranked D. Solid match up this week in Miami vs. an offense that still really doesn't scare me. NE has made some huge additions to their D that have already shown their value.
4. Houston Texans – Texans linebackers have been dropping like flies. That is why the Texans are ranked higher with their match up vs. the Titans. J. J. Watt needs to rally the troops to play one more elite game so the Texans can clinch their playoff spot and rest up some of their injured starters.
5. Chicago Bears – Bears are a little banged up and the defense is starting to show their age a little bit. Charles Tillman and Lance Briggs should be able to go. Seattle QB Russell Wilson doesn't have a great QB ranking on the road but Wilson has shown he knows how to win games. If this game was in Seattle these ranking would be completely different but I like the Bears at home this week.
6. Dallas Cowboys – Tony Romo and the boys are holding on for their playoff lives. This week they get a Philly team that is stacked with back ups. I think Bryce Brown comes back to earth this week and Nick Foyles isn't going to hurt any NFL D this year. Dallas is a safe start this week.
7. Green Bay Packers – Minnesota's offense is hurting with Percy Harvin being injured. Green Bay's 11th ranked run defense will be tested this week by Adrian Peterson but I definitely think Christian Ponder will turn the ball over a couple times this week.
8. Seattle Seahawks – The Bears are still waiting for the "Big Boy" offense to show up. Until then the Bears have an already bad offensive line made worse this week due to injuries. Jay Cutler should be busy running for his life this week. Once again if this game was in Seattle, the Seahawks would be number 2 on this list. Seattle still is just having trouble figuring it out on the road.
9. Arizona Cardinals – Tougher match up on the road this week vs. the Jets but lets face it the Jets offense stinks of something fierce. Arizona's defense is the only thing that is keeping the Cardinals relevant.
10. Denver Broncos – I still like the Broncos for fantasy teams that are heading into their playoff run. This week is a tough match up vs. a great Tampa offense. Josh Freeman and Doug Martin have been torching defenses but Elvis Dumervil will have his defense ready.
11. San Diego Chargers – San Diego is basically playing for their coach. They get a Cincinnati team in San Diego this week that has a pretty good passing attack lead by Andy Dalton and A. J. Green. The Chargers will have no problem stopping the Cincy run game but I would show some concerns vs. the pass this week. I do like the fact that this game should be an arial shoot out which usually leads to a couple of picks.
12. Cleveland Browns – Sleeper pick this week vs. Oakland. Carson Palmer and crew struggled to move the ball last week and Cleveland's D has been starting to open up some eyes with their pursuit of opposing QB's. I can definitely see Joe Hayden and crew picking off Palmer at least once this week.
13. New York Giants – It looks like the Giants have decided to play again. Last week the Giant's D was all over Aaron Rodgers this week they have a tough task of chasing down Robert Griffin III. RG 3 hasn't been making too many mistakes lately and he has minimized stupid turnovers. I think the Giants D will contain Washington but I don't see big fantasy points here because of the lack of turnovers.
14. Carolina Panthers – Basically the Panthers cracked the top 15 due to the fact they are playing KC. Ron Rivera needs to rally the troops this week if they want any shot at playing in the post season (not likely) but KC's pass game is weak just beware of Jamaal Charles.
15. Cincinnati Bengals – As I said earlier the game this week vs. San Diego should turn into a shoot out which usually creates turnovers. Cincy's 8th ranked pass D should be able to pick Philip Rivers off once or twice this week.
16. New York Jets – Arizona's offensive line is terrible plain and simple. The Jets are going to have to rely on their D to win them football games. I could see this being my **HIGH RISK HIGH REWARD** play this week.
17. St. Louis Rams – The Rams D has flown under the radar all season. St. Louis's secondary has been producing some serious fantasy points this year. Tough match up this week vs. San Fran but don't sleep on the Rams as a potential playoff sleeper team for your fantasy league.
18. Pittsburgh Steelers – I know that Pitt has the number ranked D in the NFL. Big thing they aren't even close to the top with regards to fantasy D's. Pittsburgh shuts teams down but they haven't been creating turnovers. This week they go into Baltimore and Joe Flacco is looking to get his team into the playoffs.
19. Tampa Bay Bucs – I'm not thrilled about the Bucs this week but they make the list just based off of what they've done so far this season. Terrible pass D vs. Peyton Manning usually doesn't make for a good fantasy match up.
20. Washington Redskins – The skin's secondary has come along nicely with regards to creating turnovers. If you are desperate and are looking to roll the dice on a D you can go ahead and play Washington vs. Eli Manning.
Good luck this week and hopefully i'll see you here next week when we will be talking playoffs. Once again make sure you are here this Sunday 90 minutes before kick off to get some free advice from some devilishly handsome men.

10/100BaseT Tap
Passive monitoring access for 100% visibility
Net Optics 10/100BaseT Taps supply mission-critical networks with superior network visibility and security access. The breakthrough design of the Net Optics 10/100BaseT Tap ensures zero impact on network traffic while maintaining uninterrupted access for monitoring and security devices with the world's first "Zero Delay" fail-over technology.
Highly sensitive network locations can improve monitoring performance via the innovative features of Net Optics Taps. If power is lost to other 10/100 Taps, the connected devices may introduce delays as they detect the power loss and try to re-establish their link.
Net Optics' engineering breakthrough ensures that any loss of power to the Tap is transparent to the network, and does not affect the flow of traffic through the Tap – eliminating packet delay and loss as potential security issues.
Without an IP address, monitoring devices are isolated from the network, dramatically reducing their exposure to attacks. However, the monitoring device connected to the Tap still sees all full-duplex traffic as if it were in-line, including Layer 1 and Layer 2 errors.
Full-duplex monitoring is a snap when each side of the signal is sent to a separate NIC on the monitoring device. All network and monitoring cables necessary for plug-and-play deployment are included with the Tap.
For extra uptime protection, Net Optics 10/100BaseT Taps offer redundant power connections. Should the primary power source fail, the Tap automatically switches to the backup power source. Power LEDs on the front of the Tap indicate the current power source – even if power is lost and reapplied, there is always zero delay to network traffic. The 10/100BaseT Tap is also compatible with Power-over-Ethernet (POE) applications. While offering a host of unique features, Net Optics 10/100 Taps remain fully IEEE compliant.

The Packers have roughly $18 million in salary cap space for the 2013 season right now. By the end of the day or the end of next week or something soon, much of that could be gone, and it'll be put in a very good place. Namely, the pockets of Aaron Rodgers and Clay Matthews.
Moments after I finished fearing for the financial security of our world due to the apparently imminent extension coming for Rodgers, word of an extension for Matthews in the really, really near future surfaced too.
This comes to us by way of Tom Silverstein from the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel, who quite rightly observes that it would be a special kind of insanity for the Packers to allow Matthews to even get a sniff of free agency. That's scheduled to happen next spring, with Matthews entering the final year of his rookie contract which is set to pay him just $3.73 million. For a pass rusher of Matthews' caliber, in NFL money that's the equivalent of about eight pennies. Matthews had 13 sacks this past season even though he missed four games, and over his four-year career he's recorded a total of 43 sacks, only once dipping below double digits. Of the Packers' 47 total sacks in 2013, no one else had more than 4.5.
Silverstein estimates that once a deal is finalized, Matthews' yearly cap hit will rise to somewhere around $8-10 million. That means the team's remaining money pool for next year will be a private one enjoyed only by Matthews and Rodgers. Bring all the tattooed girls.

Patch 4.2: Changes made to tier 12 set bonuses
Zarhym explains that the developers are still in the process of testing the bonuses for all classes and that if your class isn't listed in this particular post, then they're probably still working on it. As always, he adds, they're taking player feedback into account. From my own limited perspective as a priest, I'd say they've been listening quite well to community discussion on the matter.
Read Zarhym's full post after the cut.
To give you a heads up on what we're looking at so far though, here are the most recent bonuses we have in mind for some of the sets (some of what's listed below are amendments to the existing bonuses on the PTR).
Some of these bonuses might already be live as of the build pushed earlier this week, while some are yet to be implemented. If your class/specialization isn't listed here, it means the bonuses either haven't changed, or the changes haven't been solidified. Just the same, all of this is subject to ch-ch-changes over the course of the PTR process. Your feedback is appreciated!
▪ Blood Death Knight 4-Piece: The bonus to parry from Dancing Rune Weapon now begins when Dancing Rune Weapon wears off, instead of lasting while Dancing Rune Weapon is active.
▪ Frost/Unholy Death Knight 4-Piece: Old bonus removed and replaced -- Your Obliterate and Scourge Strike abilities deal 6% additional damage as Fire damage over 4 seconds.
▪ Feral Druid 4-Piece: The bonus to dodge from Barkskin now begins when Barkskin wears off, instead of lasting while Barkskin is active.
▪ Restoration Druid 4-Piece: Old bonus removed and replaced -- Your Swiftmend also heals an injured target within 8 yards for the same amount.
▪ Holy Paladin 2-Piece: Old bonus removed and replaced -- Healing with Holy Shock has a 40% chance to grant you 6% of your base mana.
▪ Holy Paladin 4-Piece: Old bonus removed and replaced -- Your Divine Light, Flash of Light, and Holy Light spells also heal an injured target within 8 yards for 10% of the amount healed.
▪ Protection Paladin 4-Piece: The bonus to parry from Divine Protection now begins when Divine Protection wears off, instead of lasting while Divine Protection is active.
▪ Holy/Discipline Priest 2-Piece: Now also triggers from casting Prayer of Mending.
▪ Holy/Discipline Priest 4-Piece: Old bonus removed and replaced -- You have a chance when you cast a helpful spell to summon a Cauterizing Flame at the target's location. Each second the Cauterizing Flame will heal an injured party member within 20 yards for 9250 to 10750 health. Lasts 5 seconds.
▪ Shadow Priest 2-Piece: Now requires the priest to be in Shadowform to be active.
▪ Warlock 4-Piece: Now also triggers from casting Drain Soul.
▪ Arms/Fury Warrior 2-Piece: Old bonus removed and replaced -- Your Battle Shout and Commanding Shout abilities grant you an additional 35 rage. Cannot occur more often than once every 60 seconds.
▪ Protection Warrior 4-Piece: The bonus to parry from Shield Wall now begins when Shield Wall wears off, instead of lasting while Shield Wall is active.
A first glance, I'd say the developers have really put some effort into balancing the output on the four-piece bonuses for healers. Let us know what you think of the rest.
The news is already rolling out for the upcoming WoW Patch 4.2! Preview the new Firelands raid, marvel at the new legendary staff, and get the inside scoop on new quest hubs -- plus new Tier 12 armor!
