We are redoing our kitchen from top to bottom & side to side i have chosen all of my appliances and am happy with the choices ive made. Keeping to some sort of a budget. My question is this. I found an incredible deal on an Electrolux Icon double wall oven waaaay below the manufactures suggested price through a reputable discount appliance house. However a sales person at PC Richards warned me that if anything should happen to the oven my warranty would not be honored by the manufacturer since I purchased it for less then they suggest to sell it. Do you forfeit your warranty when buying below? Is saving over $700 worth it? I'm nervous. HELP !!!! |
Follow-Up Postings:
Forget the sales person, they will say what they say. You should check with Electrolux on your specific situation re: the warranty. I bought a Capital Culinarian from an authorized dealer but, as it was a floor model, it was sold at a discount. It came with a full warranty. |
We bought our display Elux oven (never installed, never turned on, no blemishes that we can see) for over $1000 below list. It came with a full warranty. Your salesman is resorting to scare tactics to get a sale. Cheryl |
Thank you both. They said the warranty would be fully covered, my fiance is on board with buying through this discount appliance store since he has purchased all of his other appliances there in the past and he never had an issue. We are saving $366 compared to AJM. I think I need a little bit longer to think about this small savings vs a full nights sleep! lol I'm calling Electrolux in a moment. |
I just spoke to a customer service representative at Electrolux and she said as long as there is a serial number on the appliance the warranty is honored. I'm all in! Now I need to figure out when I should have the appliances shipped. We are gutting the kitchen and we haven't even met with the contractor. Horse before the cart? |
Yes! 1st more than likely the warranty will start from when it ships. 2nd You would very carefully need to inspect it upon arrival and usually the delivery guys don't like to hang around for that, and it ya miss something, it could turn out to be a "pain" later. 3rd. Always the "chance" something happens to it in storage. They are great ovens though, I have one (Elux Icon) also the Speed Oven, for more than 5 years now, and both trouble free and perform great!

Call Elux again. For some guys, the warranty starts at installation. For others, it starts at time of sale. For you, if you are having it shipped and are going to store it in your garage, it may start upon delivery. |

Yes - with an appliance this big (double wall ovens are very big) - you're putting the cart before the horse. Unless your kitchen is so big you know for sure you'll have room for it - and you get an extended warranty (warranty will start to run on date of delivery). Robyn |
wow I love this website and everyone on it. YOU are all so smart and helpful! MWAH MWAH MWAH. Ive never bought a big appliance like this - what should I look for besides dings & scratches? I'll look inside to make sure I have all of the shelf slides and the racks of course. I'll look at the plug also, I just read someone bout a Meile that it's plug wasn't properly intact. We have an alcove area that we are planning on putting the boxes in. Luckily we barely have any furniture on one side of the house. lol Leslie |

With its combination name, the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) is a mainline Protestant denomination that seeks to keep a balance between strong adherence to Bible teachings and affording broad freedoms to people to discern theological truth for themselves.
The Rev. Sharon Watkins calls it a "coming together and a clasping of hands of reasons and faith."
"We have really encouraged everyone to be on their own journey of faith, to study deeply in the Scriptures, to engage others," said the denomination's highest elected leader, as president and general minister. "It is a deeply spiritual journey, not a 'head thing' only, but we really see it as an integrated approach of spirit and intellect."
"Disciples," as they are most commonly known, total about 723,000 in the U.S. and Canada in 3,777 congregations. They adhere to adult baptism and weekly Holy Communion, open to any Christian, and a strong striving for Christendom's unity, Watkins said in an interview just before last weekend's Arizona Regional Assembly of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), held at First Christian Church of Mesa. More than 300 people from Arizona's 29 Disciple congregations took part.
Watkins is in her second year of a six-year term of the denomination whose headquarters is in Indianapolis. Most of its churches are concentrated in a wide belt across the middle of the country from Virginia to Texas. The church evolved from an early 19th-century Christian restoration movement founded by Thomas Campbell and Alexander Campbell, both of West Virginia, and Barton Stone of Kentucky, who left the Presbyterian church over differences of doctrine. Central themes of their fl edging faith were that the Bible was sole authority, that there was the right of private judgment and an appeal for Christian unity through restoring of biblical institutions and practices.
"Whenever Christians gather, we expect to be there," Watkins said about the denomination's emphasis on unity. Divisions within Christianity, she said, "is not what we understand that God had in mind in creating humanity." Rich diversity, she said, can be appreciated, "but pitting groups against each other we just think is sinful, and that kind of division is not right."
The denomination gives latitude to its regions in such areas as ordinations of openly gay clergy, though "most are still in discernment" on this. "Most have said they won't," she said. "And it doesn't happen all that often."
Watkins, 52, was serving as senior pastor of Disciples Christian Church in Bartlesville, Okla., when she was elected the sixth president of the denomination, formed in 1968 through a restructuring. She is the first woman leader and came directly from a parish to the top post. She was associate vice president of Phillips University, now Phillips Theological Seminary, in Tulsa, Okla., where her husband, the Rev. Rick Lowery, is an Old Testament professor.
When she took the helm in July 2005, Watkins thought her main work was to be an encourager, given that mainline Christianity has been in a slump in membership and as a force in the American church. "I thought my biggest job was to go around and help pump everybody up," she said.
Instead, she has found churches already on the move in their communities. Watkins said the current denomination has too much structure and needs reorganization, and she calls on congregations to "help us become the church we want to be for the 21st century." She wants to develop a denomination that can say it is effective and faithful.
"We think that God loves everyone, and it's Christ's table, so we have an open table that represents our quest and passion for Christian unity," she said. Disciples "cherish the ministry of all believers," she continued. "We really understand that at baptism, each one is called to ministry and service, so, for us, the leadership of the laity is very important." To underscore that, elders from the laity preside, with ordained clergy, at the communion table. "It's how we understand the wholeness of the church," she said.
Watkins is heartened that her church has seen about 450 new congregations form in the past five years — many with greater ethnic diversity. Seminaries seem to be attracting more younger, first-career students, breaking with a trend of recent decades of older seminarians changing careers. Straight-out-of-college seminarians portend a clergy that brings new energy. "We are really trying to lift up ministry as an honorable way to spend one's life," she said.
Watkins' visit to Arizona helped Disciples here gain a better picture of the church's work, said the Rev. Bill Jacobs, pastor of First Christian Church of Mesa. "She offered great clarity about our church and its mission, and her presence here helped up to clarify who we are and where we are going," he said. He lauded her pastoral experience and "a broad knowledge of different ways the church must function to be effective."
Jacobs said Watkins has the gift to bridge the church's history and traditions with future direction. "I was surprised that she was as strong as she is in the local church," demonstrating an ease in talking intimately to small groups yet inspiring a large audience with the big picture of the denomination.
Watkins insists, "We really are trying to understand it as a discernment of what God is saying to us — and through us — at this particular time."

There's a certain German sports car that the designers at CH Auto might have been dreaming about before they penned the Lithia. We don't think this kind of inspiration is anywhere near criminal, though, and before anyone broaches the topic of Chinese design, they should know that the CH Auto's design chief is an ex-General Motors man: Dan Darancou, who has work on the Buick Invicta Concept and the SEMA Chevrolet Camaro Black on his resume.
CH Auto helps automakers prepare cars for sale in China, from design through to engineering – part of Darancou's brief is to make sure those two departments work together. The Lithia, showed off at the Beijing Motor Show, has probably been done as a company calling card. Powered by lithium-ion batteries, the spec sheet claims a 150-kilometer range (93 miles).

Mipro ACT-727 System Review
Jan 5, 2010 12:00 PM, By John McJunkin
A mic system with high audio quality, simple operation, and an outstanding visual display.
One minor issue that bears mention is the size and construction of the 7H transmitter. It is substantially larger in diameter than some other handheld mics on the market. It requires an especially large clipand Mipro makes one. It wasn't a deal-breaker for the vocalists with whom I tested it, but they would have preferred a somewhat smaller diameter. The bigger issue here is the surface of the handheld transmitter. It's burnished metal, which increases the risk of dropping the mic, compared with the higher friction exhibited by a rubberized surface. Again, this is not a deal-breaker, but I've been known to raise this same concern with microphones from numerous manufacturers. It would not be a difficult fix, and any time the incidence of dropped mics can be reduced, it's a good thing.
Related Links | ||||||
The front and rear panels of the receiver are very straightforward and simple, with easily navigated controls featuring a clever data entry knob that is also a pushbutton. I had no difficulty dialing up group, channel, and frequency settings, not to mention the nicety of naming transmitters. The ACT-727 can be computer-controlled via Mipro's proprietary networking protocol, and the parameters for setting this up are also adjusted from the front panel, as are the receiver's squelch, and lock/unlock functions. Another standout feature of the ACT series receivers is the vacuum fluorescent display (VFD), which is a beautiful, high-contrast display that very clearly expresses information about the system in vivid colors, including the battery strength in the transmitter being received. I've never seen a better display from any other manufacturer. I examined the display under several lighting scenarios, and there were none that could render the display difficult to view.
In summary, I found the system to exhibit high audio quality, simple operation, and an outstanding visual display. There are micro-tweaks I'd like to see, such as the lack of a rubberized surface, but I would definitely use this system personally.

I occasionally read a self-help book such as Richard Koch's The 80/20 Principle. Usually, I am disappointed. These sorts of books always seem to be a classic example of the 80/20 principle in that 90% of the useful contents can be found in 5% of the pages (the principle doesn't have to be 80/20 and doesn't have to add to 100, it is just that these sorts of nonlinearities are a counterintuitive but natural part of our world). The rest is just filler.
The basic idea is good. As he notes, 80% of what you achieve during your work time comes from 20% of the time spent. The other 80% of the time you spend at work provides only 20% of the output. The idea is to increasingly emphasize the useful 20% and step away from some of the time-wasting 80%.
Certainly this is a useful and obvious lesson. And it is one which can be used at the margins to eliminate some useless activities from the work day. It also can be applied to real life activities. Such as with this blog. 20% of the readers are surely providing at least 80% of comments and sharing links to here with other sites. It certainly is wise to express appreciation and pay special attention to that 20%. Thanks.
Also, I can see this with my published research articles. 20% of my articles (namely, those in the Journal of Financial Planning: 7 / 37 = 19%), probably account for 95% of the cases in which someone has actually read an article I wrote. Most of the other articles I've written are destined to collect dust on a library bookshelf. I should clearly focus on writing articles only for outlets that will have an impact.
Another cute point from the book: 20% of the workers in any large corporation surely account for 80% of the work effort. But employers are rarely able to provide 80% of the wage bill to those 20% of workers. So it can pay for such productive workers to set out on their own with self employment.
Another point from the book that is worth reemphasizing: usually the amount of time it takes to complete a project depends on the amount of time available. Procrastination can be good (if you are spending your time effectively on something else), as it forces you to produce output in a much shorter period of time that will probably be at least 80 or 90% as good as if you had spent much more time on the project. I'm experimenting with this now, as I need to get a research paper finished today.
As well, the book emphasizes that is important to specialize. Find a specific niche which you know better than anyone else. That is how you are able to provide value.
But the principle can also be hard to apply in practice. Certainly when working on research, 20% of the time spent results in 80% of the material that finds its eventual way into a research article. It would be nice to cut out the other 80% of the time that doesn't ever amount to much in the way of useful results. But the trouble is that there is a matter of serendipity or luck. It is hard to know in advance when an insight will come or which 20% of the stuff you are working on will eventually become most useful. For instance, "safe" savings rates sat as an entry on my to-do list for at least 6 months without my ever looking at it, but then after having an initial look, the entire article was finished within a week.

Lydia Sarfati's Daily Bridal Guide for Clients
Posted: July 20, 2010
The final two-week countdown to the big day is a stressful period for clients. Worrying about a breakout or a breakdown is slowly dimming their bridal glow. With this guide, your clients' inner Bridezillas will find solace and allow their inner beauty to shine through!
For the full two weeks, it is great to detox and purify to get that inner glow and vibrant energy. To accomplish this, morning and night advise clients to drink a full 8-ounce glass of Lydia's purifying juice. Blend the following:
- 1 bunch of parsley
- 1 cucumber
- 1 green apple
- 1 lemon
- 2 tsp. of honey
The cucumber and apple will hydrate cells from the inside. The parsley is cleansing and purifying, rich in folic acid; a natural deodorizer on the inside. The honey gives a great boost of natural energy. The vitamin C from lemon juice is a great antioxidant.
Combine with daily exercise for 30 minutes; any exercise to get your energy going. Follow with a high protein, low-carb diet.
Most importantly, your client should eliminate processed sugars and foods, drink decaf coffee, avoid diet sodas, and drink plenty of water. Take a seaweed bath every night. This plan provides great energy and is a purification detox for the liver; try incorporating fresh produce into home-cooked meals to avoid sodium-packed restaurant options that can cause bloating.

Thanks for considering Console Doctor for the repair of your XBox 360. We feel very strongly that we can not only meet, but exceed your expectations in terms of the speed, quality and cost of repairs of your system. Our goal is to turn-around every console within 1-3 days (rare cases may take longer) and have it back out the door to our clients.While it is very difficult to provide specific repair pricing here for the many things that can go wrong with your video game system, listed below are general figures for what we charge for various repair services. Listed below are some basic price estimates** for a few of the services that we provide. Price estimates** below INCLUDE parts and labor.
As an xbox repair center, we advise you not to ship your console to Microsoft – they will hold it for 2-8 weeks and will charge you the full retail repair price. Also, it is surprising but Microsoft frequently doesn't properly repair the infamous Rrod issue. (For more about this and other common problems, read below).
We know how to fix error codes on an xbox gaming console unit, and how they work, inside and out. Not only can we correct xbox ring of death problems, if you want to get playing again, we are dedicated to getting you up and running now! If your XBOX 360 is defective (rumored to be 20-50% of all units!), bring it to our store. Our technicians have years of experience and we keep our prices as affordable as possible.
We give the utmost care to your console by offering precision cleaning, testing and correcting the numerous common XBOX 360 problems, including:
For those who don't know, the 1, 2, 3, Red Rings (RROD) problem or 'general hardware failure' renders your unit completely unusuable without any warning. The easiest way to determine if you have this issue is to observe the XBOX 360 when you press the power button to turn on the console. Normally, you would see three or four green flashing lights. But instead, if you see three flashing red lights around the XBOX 360 power button, then you most likely have the Xbox 360 red ring of death. The good news is that the issue can not only be corrected but prevented. We can install improved cooling hardware into your unit to allow for greater heat threshold, lower tempratures, and better performance. It's a small investment but well worth it.
E74 errors are almost as common and are due to video problems. There's nothing worse than having BioShock, Halo, Call of Duty, Mass Effect or Gears of War games freeze up during play! Again, if you need xbox 360 repair, we can fix xbox 360 video failure issues and 1 red flashing light on xbox 360 or any other problems. We have a team of technicians and are experienced, affordable and reliable. We can repair your XBox 360 issues faster and more professionally than anyone else. We also repair Playstation 3, PSP, Nintendo Wii, DS and more. We're sure your game console repair experience with us will be a positive one.

G20: Politicians create policy trap by ignoring feasibility of new rules
London 27 September 2009. Financial Services regulation occupied less than twenty percent of the G20 leaders' statement, but the urgency to create more powerful tools to supervise the banks was clear. The world has now committed to have compensation, capital, liquidity and intensive supervision rules in place by the end of next year and to adopt an upgraded Basel II rulebook by 2011.
PJ Di Giammarino, CEO of JWG, comments: "Despite calls from industry trade associations for the G20 to conduct a cumulative impact assessment before agreeing a path forward, the world's politicians have asked the newly minted Financial Stability Board (FSB) to get on with a regulatory 'race to the top', which pits rule makers against each other and the banks, in a bid to build a macro view of systemic risk."
In order for the regulators to set appropriate policies the FSB will need to define detailed technical policies and procedure manuals that do not yet exist. According to analysis from the European Commission, released last week, there are already over 50 missing technical standards that need to be created for 12 regulations created before the crisis.
Di Giammarino continues: "There is no 'silver bullet'. Nobody owns the entire picture of a market, counterparty, customer or instrument today, so why do the G20 think we can just hit a button and get a meaningful set of systemic risk results? If it were that easy, we wouldn't be in this mess in the first place.
"This might sound like a technology problem, but it is actually an enormous legal, commercial and policy challenge. The crisis was caused by the right people not having the right information at the right time. The regulators are subsequently mandating detailed information requirements for ambiguous concepts that will have slightly different meanings for each segment of the market. Whilst the industry is already engaging in the discussion of how to align its view point the complexity, speed and technical difficulty of creating an integrated picture of risk is mind boggling.
"It is hard to take the scale and pace of these proposals seriously. There are trillions of pieces of data flying about without any mechanism to bring them together. Creating quality data sets across different segments of the industry, markets they participate in and customers they serve, whilst developing technology to integrate the information within a time frame this short is impossible with the current focus. In short, we believe that regulators, data organisations, vendors and standards bodies don't have the appropriate people and resources to do the detailed policy and standards work that is required to solve the problem.
"JWG has found that hundreds of man days from real experts in the leading banks are required to get this right. For each new piece of regulation, practitioners need to make sense of what the policy makers are asking, find practical solutions to detailed issues and explain it to many different regulators in language they understand. This is a tricky business. Many smaller firms simply don't have the resources to do this.
"Regulators, like the UK's Financial Services Authority which is busy defining its view of the data sets behind closed doors, will wind up with real problems when it can't make sense of, or process, the liquidity or customer information it has asked for. There is a real risk that if they get this wrong, not only will the world be awash with faulty data, macro prudential oversight will be branded a failure and no alternative cures for the diseases the G20 thought it was eradicating will be found.
Di Giammarino concludes: "The G20 has just set a real data trap for 2011 – who will be to blame when we fail to hit the deadlines with controls that meet the political objectives? Likewise, when the true cost to the real economy of these initiatives is finally revealed, how is the taxpayer going to react?"

While we've had a lot of Intel based motherboards here at TweakTown over the last couple of years, it's been a one horse show in terms of the power market. Intel has had its finger on the pulse of the end users, and its Core 2 architecture really has helped them get ahead. With the delays and troubles AMD has experienced trying to get its Phenom to market, Big Blue has managed to gain quite a market share back from the gamers that AMD stole from them during the Athlon 64 Vs. Pentium IV days.
While things aren't as Rosie for AMD now, Phenom is starting to finally make its way into the market. And with prices of a Phenom X4 9850, their top of the line CPU so far hitting an extremely affordable $270-280 AUD, quad-core processing is not out of the reach of every day users.
Though AMD themselves have an impressive chipset line-up for the Phenom, we can't forget one of the biggest supporters of AMD. In fact, they have helped AMD out something incredible. Starting back when the Athlon was a Socket A chip, nForce chipsets have been around to help boost the performance. NVIDIA are back again with GeForce based chipsets sporting IGP graphics.
Today we have our first board from ZOTAC, one of the many companies we met at Computex. They have sent us their GeForce 8300 based Micro-ATX offering aimed at the digital home segment. How well does it perform? Read on to find out.

She doesn't want to let on that a particular student has a disability, so Ms. Dian Jenkins tries to stop herself from celebrating as her students walk across the stage to receive their diplomas at each Commencement. As the Coordinator of the Office of Disability Services at Fort Lewis College, Dian works with well over a hundred students each year and she's proud of all of them.
"I see victory in every student who graduates," she says. "I always feel like they should walk across and we should be handing them three diplomas because they cannot take anything for granted at all. They work at least three times harder than everyone else."
Dian has dedicated her career to helping those with disabilities receive an education, but that wasn't always the plan. In fact, as a girl she found herself intimidated by her father's World War II buddies that were dealing with physical disabilities. However, after working for some years in manufacturing with a number of Deaf people, she felt the need to learn sign language.
She did learn sign language and went to work for the Colorado School for the Deaf and Blind as a dorm supervisor for the four to six year old Deaf boys. After eight years there, she returned to school and earned a bachelor's degree in psychology/sociology and a master's degree in Deaf education.
She took a job at Idaho State University as director of the ADA and Disability Resource Center, but she and her husband found themselves missing Colorado. So, as her daughter was graduating from Fort Lewis College, Dian took the job as coordinator of the Office of Disability Services in 2002. She never ceases to be amazed by the students that walk through her door.
Seeing how hard they have to work just to be 'accepted' in this every day, mainstream world. On top of that, fight for the rights of future people going down this way. I found exceptionality," she says. Dian sees one of her main tasks as being a liaison of sorts between her students and the rest of the College. "If I can be that change agent or if I can be that catalyst to bridge the gap between the able-bodied world and the world of these exceptional people, that is in my heart."

Half the Meetings, Twice the Productivity
Over time at Life Church, our systems became more complicated and our communication more challenging.
To help people become better informed, we started adding meetings. Unfortunately, more meetings led to more inefficiency. (This may not always be the case. But it often is. Read Death by Meetings by Patrick Lencioni.)
We tried a radical experiment and cut the frequency of our meetings in half. If a group met once a month, we moved it to once every two months. If they met four times a year, we moved it to twice a year. If they met once a week, we moved it to twice a month.
Here is what happened:
- Instead of less communication, we had better communication. The infrequency of meetings forced us to be more intentional with our communication.
- Instead of planning out one week, we had to plan two. This forced us to become more organized.
- Instead of the meetings seeming dull and boring, people came more excited to be together.
- Instead of longer, more drawn out meetings, people worked harder, faster and smarter.
- We freed up a ton of time for other important ministry.
It might be a slight overstatement… if so, not by much. I honestly think we cut our meetings in half and doubled our production.

Namespace vs. Prefix - recommended naming practice for Qt libraries
Normally If I develop a certain C++ library I put my data and classes into C++ namespaces. In the Qt library and certain Qt related libraries like Qxt or Qwt no namespaces are used but all data and classes qre prefixed (Qt library – Q, Qxt library – Qxt, Qwt library – Qwt). So I would like to know if there is a recommended practice for naming when developing a library that uses Qt classes and provides classes derived from Qt.
We have a Qt vision library here and I'm not sure whether to put all the library stuff into Qvi namespace or to go the Qt way and prefix all classes and data with Qvi prefix and ignore namespaces. A third solution would be to mix both – that means put all data prefixed with Qvi into Qvi namespace.
What would a Qt developer recommend here? Was there a certain reason for not using namespaces for Qt (i.e. maybe old C++ compilers did not support namespace properly)?
3 replies
I certainly recommend to use namespaces!
The Prefixing is from my understanding mostly a relict from the dark ages when compilers did not yet support those properly. Once done it is hard to change from prefixes to namespaces, but even Qt can be configured to use namespaces nowadays and we most certainly use them e.g. in Qt Creator.

Bought 6 O. fragrance in past 3 years, and none of them gave me the fragrance that I had in China. Not even close. I used to think the culrtivars in the states were not right, but now I am changing my mind.
Bought 2 Fudingzhu from Nursery Caroliniana 1.5 months ago. The moment I opened the package, I swelled the fragrance I missed so much. It was heavenly. I was sure that's the one I had been looking for years. Now, they bloom again. One has absolutely no fragrance, and another one has very weak fragrance. What is going on? some fertilizer? I am using miracle grow potting mix. They are indoor (69 F) with lots of Sun. I spray them couple of times a day to keep the moisture. Only water them when the soil is dry (about every 10 days). I bet the climate makes difference. Kai |
Follow-Up Postings:
It may have something to do with the strength of the plants. Which region of China are you from? I remember I visited Nanjing in a fall, 10 years ago. I could never forget the honey fragrance in the air. It's like everywhere for miles and miles. |
Some other kinds of flowers have less smell indoors, the lower humidity in ordinary living room conditions apparently interfering. Maybe that is your problem, the same plants opening their flowers outdoors being more fragrant. Note correct spelling, if you need it is Osmanthus fragrans. |
My home town is Wuhan, not too far from Nanjing, also on the Long River. Yes, the fragrance of O. Fragrans(thanks for the spelling) is really nice. |
Seems to be a favorite, many posts about it here. |
Kai, Ahhh, for those who don't know: Wuhan is known to be uncomfortably hot and humid in the summer. The city has a nick - the "Big Oven". I also suspect the temperature drops sharply at night in late summer and early fall. Such environment may contribute to better blooms in the fall. Well, it is just me guessing ... |
Just got back from a stay in the city of Guilin, in Southwest China. The name means Osmanthus forest. The immortals (Taoist gods) are supposed to have blessed this most beautiful landscape with thousands of fragrant osmanthus trees from heaven. (They are also grown in large nurseries on the outskirts of the town for the ornamental plant trade.) The landscape of Guilin is indeed otherworldly. It is a "karst" landscape of almost 20,000 fantastic perpendicular limestone formations, formed when the entire valley was under the sea, and such as you see in classic Chinese paintings. The climate is moderate to subtropical. Ideal fro pumelos and tangerines. It is wet in spring and dry in summer, autumn, and winter. There is a significant temperature drop at night in autumn and winter and a lot of mist in the mornings due to condensation. The soil is also thin and infertile. Our guide told me there are 3 kinds of osmanthus in Guilin, gold, silver, and three seasons. I have to say that the ones I saw in Guilin were not much better looking than my rather neglected one that lives in a pot, since they were in the midst of a draught. In Guilin they bloom most abundantly in the Spring, though some bloom all year if there is sufficient rain. It must be truly heavenly there in the springtime. I bought some dried flowers to add to oolong tea as they do over there. Many years ago, I used to have an Osmanthus plant that was very fragrant and floriferous. I have not found the the ones I have had in recent years to be either very fragrant or very floriferous and I thought perhaps my nose had become less sensitive. Since returning from China, I am going to administer some lime and magnesium to mine and see if that will make a difference. They say you don't need to fertilize them much, but I think in the old days I did used to fertilize them with dilute fertilizer with every watering. I no longer do this, for some reason, perhaps because of timed release fertilizers. So when the days get longer I will try again. When we lived in North Carolina (zone 8) there were autumn-blooming hybrid osmanthuses (not fragrans) planted at the corners of all the university buildings. They smelled divine. The soil in Chapel Hill is acid or neutral (I think). These plants were kept watered and cared for and were full and vigorous. They smelled wonderful in October. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Guilin, Guangxi Autonomous Province
Hey Monarda, Guilin is way South of Nanjing. It's like Charleston to Chapel Hill. Anyways, I know a little insider information, perhaps ;-) I think most of the Osmanthus are grafted on the root-stocks of the Chinese Fringe trees. It is said that the Fringe trees have better roots. |
That above link doesn't seem to work. Trying again with another one. Someday I will learn to post pictures properly. |
Here is a link that might be useful: another Guilin landscape

Hi Monarda: I'm from Guilin. If I remember correctly autumn is the prime time for sweet olives in my hometown. Yes we are at the south of the country, much more south than NanJin. But we still have quite cold winters, maybe not that cold. The picture you showed above is a typical landscape of Guilin. Now I feel home sick |

Crashed - grrrr. Let's try this again. I, too, have several O.Fragrans that don't appear to be fragrant. Mine are over 3' tall now and took rooted to pull up. Besides, I wouldn't want to, just in case that when they start blooming that they are fragrant. Background: When I took my Master Gardener class 2 years ago, I asked about the 4 O. Fragrans that I have. They had started blooming and I was starting to get concerned. I asked about their fragrance. The instructor that day (from the best horicultural college we have here in Texas - Texas A&M), said that there is ONE variety that is NOT fragrant. It made me so mad that I wanted to come home and rip them up. Of course, you know they take a VERY long time to grow. So, I decided to wait and see... I just saw some blooms on one, but couldn't smell a thing. I'm wondering... shouldn't it have been detectable or does it take a profussion of blooms? I'll leave them, but I'm not happy. LIke you, I have ordered one, O. Fudingzhu, from Nurcar, just before you did. But, I haven't seen any blooms or smelled the fragrance yet. Looks like we might both be frustrated. Oh well, at least, we have the guaranteed one from Nurcar. Xtal |
In recent years I am very much so interested in collecting Os. cultivars from China. I want to share with you a propagation technic, not a new idea but working. I usually use some small young branches for rooting. Some will take and some would not make. I have a 8 feet 'Wan-Dian-Jin' tree on ground. In May or June I made a few air layering on about 1/4 to 1/3 inch in diameter branches by exposing the bark and covering it with moist peat, alum. foil. Due to my area weather that is cool in the evenning, even in the summer. The well callus tissue would not produce fiberous roots. Then In september I cut off the callus branches and keep then in a 5 gal plastic pot. I used all mist pertile as the rooting media. The total is enclosed with a tall kitchen trash bag. I keep it in my green house and forget it about. I just opened the bag and each branch is well alive and anchored with new roots. I like this easy and simple method to produce larger plant stock. |
I am reporting back how my Fudingzhu do. Loads of flowers, but still no fragrance. They had wonderful fragrance that I'd die for when I opened the package 2.5 months ago. Just can't figure it out. Kai |
It looks good though, lol. Are they blooming 2.5 months ago? They are blooming now? Interesting. Is this an every blooming type :-) Anyways, I never have these. But I guess fertilizer helps. It may be that you need a balanced formula. My gardenia, on the other hand, has opened shortly after new year. It produces strong fragrance. |
That is strange. Kaihui, can you keep a small branch flowers in a vase in room temperature for overnight. See what will be. |
Longriver, I don't quite understand what you meant. The plants were indoor with about 4-6 hrs Sunlight. The temperature was set to 69F through the winter. |
- Posted by yellowthumb 5a Ontario (My Page) on Wed, Mar 5, 08 at 20:50
You will smell it in sunny and warm days. Mine is doing the same thing. Someday I can't smell a thing, it's all about the weather condition. |

Shifting Perspectives: Gearing a bear druid in patch 4.2, part 2 {WoW}
Aug 2nd 2011 6:41PM Seriously, do you even play a bear tank?? telling people to go get that mirror trink over anything else is a complete waste of time and as far as wanting the mastery proc from matrix resabilizer if mastery is your highest stat then you are definatly doing something wrong, as crit will undoubtably be higher as you should never reforge for mastery just take what you can get from gear. The best combination of trinkets as far as I am concerned would be Unheeded warning (the increase to weapon dmg is massive for us) and heroic vial of stolen memories (the stam can be nice if needed and the extra dodge is a great oh crap button). All you need is 140k health unbuffed ppl, after that go for agi agi agi all the way. check out Mystar and Janul from chamber of aspects on EU armory they are 2 awesome druid tanks and their gear set ups perfectly represent someone well through firelands (Mystar) and the best of tier 11 (Janul). Allison I think you need to seriously step your game up as your thinking is very outdated, agi is king.

I'm married with currently 5 children 12 and under. We have a small dairy goat herd, two housecats, a sunny days only barncat and a long haired dachshund who plays with them, and runs from them, depending on the day. We now have a fox terrier-jack russell mix with a serious limp - we named her Cricket. She loves to snuggle with the cats. Them - not so much.
I'm passionate about cooking, and preserving our harvest. We have a petite farm stand where I sell my heirloom tomatoes and naturally grown produce on Canandaigua Lake. I milk the goats and make cheese for my family's use only.
I teach my little ones to work alongside me picking berries and turning them into perfectly wonderful and simple jams and preserves. We have so much fun!!
It's a wonderful life!
Freckles, married to Farm Boy
Thai is my favorite, but we have to drive an hour to find Thai food. Not very often though.
I also adore Indian food. Curries speak volumes to me. I am passionate about spices and herbs.
I am famous for my jam recipes. I have demonstrated some vegetarian baby food recipes on the local PBS station in Seattle.

Three years ago we wanted dwarf red twig dogwoods in front of our house. I found a variety called Artic Fire and bought three. The problem is the twigs that were supposed to turn red when the leaves drop have never turned red. At best green with some redish blotches. I wonder if anyone else has tried this plant and what your experience has been. Maybe I'm expecting too much, but the local full size red twigs in our neighborhood are beautiful and dark red in winter. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Mine are deep red. The key is to cut them back to stubs every spring. New growth has the deepest color. |
Would this be the north side of the house? |
- Posted by nerdyshopper (My Page) on Wed, Sep 21, 11 at 10:09
They are on the north side of our house and it is pretty shady in the late afternoon. When we got them, the instructions said not to prune them for 3 years to allow them to develop and accimate to the location. I will be able the prune them next spring. |
The shade might have something to do with it. Some "twig" dogwoods do not do well having all the stems cut down every year, taking only the 1/3 of them that are the oldest and least colorful each time might work better for you. |

Piamo single-serve espresso maker for microwaves
Christoph Meyl was faced with a dilemma that many espresso-lovers would relate to. His office was too far from the nearest café, the communal kitchen was shared with 600 other employees and there was no coffee machine, just a microwave. His solution – the Piamo single-serve espresso maker. Read More
With a name and design that suggest a Space Age, Barbarella-style design, Fagor's new Spoutnik microwave could perhaps be mistaken for a cartoon-ish UFO that landed on the kitchen counter. Its bold, fun design is about more than just looks, though – it serves a functional purpose, too. Read More
Bread may be the staff of life, but it doesn't keep very well. Left to its own devices, a loaf will start to go moldy in a week – a fact that costs consumers and the food industry millions of dollars each year. Now, according to the BBC, a Texas-based company have developed a process that kills spores so that a loaf of bread can stay mold-free for up to 60 days. Read More
Aside from items with a lengthy shelf life, such as candy bars and potato chips, purchasing any more substantial food from a vending machine is generally a recipe for disappointment. While devices like the pizza vending machine take a specialized approach in an attempt to improve the quality of food on offer, the shotgun approach of traditional vending machines means almost every "fresh" item ends up being anything but. But that could change at least a little bit with the EatWave, a new vending machine that stores refrigerated food and drinks and can microwave specific items before they're delivered. Read More
This week, science fiction became science fact as a Boeing CHAMP missile knocked out a building full of electronics in the Utah desert at Hill Air Force Base. There was no explosion and no flying shrapnel. There was only the sound of the missile's engine as it flew overhead and the sputtering of sophisticated computers crashing as they were hit by a beam of high-energy microwaves. Read More
Now that we're moving towards automated orange-sorting and autonomous tractors, what might be the next step in replacing human agricultural workers with machines? Well, how about robotic strawberry pickers? That's what scientists from the UK's National Physical Laboratory (NPL) say could be on the way, thanks to a system that is able to identify ripe strawberries in the field. Read More
The microwave technology used in applications such as mobile phones and wireless networks may be on its way to being replaced - with parts that are smaller, less expensive, and that consume less resources. Instead of microwaves, devices of the future may use spin waves, which are nanoscale magnetic waves. For almost ten years, it has been theorized that spin waves could be propagated using magnetic nanocontacts. Recently, scientists from the University of Gothenburg and the Royal Institute of Technology, Sweden, became the first people to demonstrate that the theory meshes with observable phenomena.

Whether caused by strokes in seniors or hypoxia in newborn infants, brain injuries can cause the brain to overheat, which in turn causes its cells to die. While there are cooling therapies that can bring its temperature down, doctors first need to establish that the brain is indeed warmer than the rest of the patient's body. While doing so has previously involved invasive techniques, researchers from Children's Hospital of The King's Daughters (CHKD) in Norfolk, Virginia have recently created a small device that sits on top of the patient's head, and measures their brain's temperature non-invasively.

It has been estimated that over 8 billion US gallons (30.3 billion liters) of used motor oil are produced every year by the world's cars and trucks. While some of that is re-refined into new oil or burned in furnaces for heat, neither of those processes are entirely environmentally-innocuous. In other cases, it is simply discarded. Today, however, researchers from the University of Cambridge announced the development of a process that uses microwaves to convert waste oil into vehicle fuel. Read More
A research team from the Missouri University of Science and Technology (Missouri S&T) has succeeded in creating a portable scanning system that's capable of looking inside objects or structures and revealing hidden secrets. Using technology similar to that used for full body scans at airports, the new transmission mode camera system can detect, collect, process and display millimeter-wave and microwave signal information in real time and at adjustable focus points between the transmitter and collector aperture. The whole setup is powered by a single laptop-sized battery, with the results being displayed on a notebook screen. Read More

There is a high probability for Mac power users to execute Terminal commands in order to check for network status of particular domain, such as ping, traceroute, whois, etc.
However, if we are new to Terminal commands, it is not necessary to use any web based service for this particular purpose; we can always use Network Utility pre-installed to our Mac.
Above. Running Whois with Network Utility
This application is located inside Application → Utilities folder. But I personally feel that it's much faster to have your Spotlight do the searching task: by searching for "network utility", you will be able to spot it (command-space to activate Spotlight).

Simplicity is the political campaign for Alka Tiwary in Dhoondh Legi Manzil Humein
Well-known actor Sara Khan aka Alka Tiwary from Star One's Dhoondh Legi Manzil Humein is excited about her new look, as the role is inspired by an eminent female politician in power.
A source reveals that Alka goes down to her worst over Chander's death. But when everyone has given up hope on her, she will rise from the ashes and makes a fresh start towards her Manzil. The vibrant and spunky Alka will now see a complete change in terms of her look and character to appear before the people she is meant to serve. Sara Khan aka Alka enthusiastically says, "In my previous look I had to wear smart casuals and I was very chirpy, bright and a witty girl because the character demanded it. But now, the look is really simple as I have to wear plain saris and play a very serious role. So it's a drastic change between both the characters. I hope the audiences will like my new look and attitude."

Oops I used the wrong stuff. I thought it was Portland Cement in the garage, but it turns out to be sakrete high strength stucco mix. I used 2/4/1 stucco/pulp/sand. Will this ever set up? If it does set up, will is be totally flimsey? Can I use the stucco for anything?
Thanks, --Rick |

I think you've got no chance. Does it say Type S on the bag? That is already 2 parts cement, 1 part lime, and 9 parts sand. So your final mix is roughly 2 parts cement, 1 part lime, 20 parts pulp, 10 parts sand. That's roughly equivalent to 1/7/3. You know papercrete better than me, but I don't think it will set well. The stucco is basically a ready mixed mortar. You can use it for projects that require a roughly 1:3 cement:sand ratio, possibly with other ingredients. Don't add more sand. You can add more cement and use it that way. For example, two bags of straight cement and one bag of Sakrete will give you a 50:50 cement sand mix. |

So the shower door installer arrives. When he rang the doorbell, I noticed that there was a package delivered from UPS. As he is bringing in the door and his tools, I am opening up the package.
Inside the box is my order of pepper spray from Spitefire. I pulled out one of the packages, open it up and examine it. I am talking with the installer, now in my bathroom, and "playing" with the canister. I push the button and nothing happens. Then I remember that you have to push the button and push forward, so I do that. Then the canister fires. I actually hit the shower door which was good because that was between the nozzle and his face. The spray fills the air and we both have to clear out of the room because we are gagging and can't breath.
Rule 1: The gun is always loaded.
I just didn't think they would ship it fully loaded. Duh. My bad.
Fortunately it was funny for both of us and nobody got hurt. But I will say that Spitefire is good stuff.
OK. I have bent over. You may commence kicking me in the butt.

[S6.003] Results of a Phase 2 Open-Label Study of ISIS-SMNRx in Patients with Infantile (Type 1) Spinal Muscular Atrophy
Richard Finkel,1John Day,2Claudia Chiriboga,3Jiri Vajsar,4Dawn Cook,1Karolina Watson,5Shirley Paulose,5Rosangel Cruz,3Jacqueline Montes,3Darryl De Vivo,3Mason Yamashita,6Dawn McGuire,7Katie Alexander,8Daniel Norris,6Frank Bennett,6Kathie Bishop6
1Orlando, FL, USA, 2Stanford, CA, USA, 3New York, NY, USA, 4Toronto, ON, Canada, 5Palo Alto, CA, USA, 6Carlsbad, CA, USA, 7Orinda, CA, USA, 8
Objective: This study was conducted to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and clinical efficacy of multiple intrathecal doses of ISIS-SMNRx (ISIS 396443) in patients with infantile-onset (Type 1) SMA.
Background: ISIS-SMNRx is an antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) drug designed to alter splicing of SMN2 mRNA, increasing the amount of functional SMN protein produced. Results from experiments in SMA mouse models showed that ISIS-SMNRx effectively altered SMN2 mRNA splicing, increased SMN protein in the spinal cord, and had significant effects on functional and histological measures of neuromuscular health, including survival, when delivered to the CNS. A single-dose, dose-ascending clinical study of ISIS-SMNRx in children with Type 2/Type 3 SMA has previously been completed.
Multiple doses of ISIS-SMNRx were delivered by intrathecal injection to infants with SMA who were 7 months of age or less at study enrollment. Four subjects were administered multiple 6 mg doses of ISIS-SMNRx and up to 16 subjects will be administered multiple 12 mg doses. Subjects are being monitored for drug safety and tolerability. Plasma drug levels are measured over the first 24 hours and CSF drug levels are assessed prior to each dose administration. Preliminary measures of clinical efficacy include the CHOP-INTEND infant motor exam, CMAP, growth measurements, ventilator use, and survival.
Enrollment of the lower dose cohort has been completed and no safety concerns related to ISIS-SMNRx have been identified to date; enrollment of the higher dose cohort is ongoing. Available safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic, and clinical data will be presented.
Results from this study will inform the design and conduct of a Phase 3 clinical study of ISIS-SMNRx in infants with SMA.

But what if it was real and this was just GC making fun of the UI guy who spelled it wrong and didnt catch it before he put the image in the slides.

1. Yes, someone brings up this fake slide about once every few hours.
2. It's pretty generous to even call it photo-shopped. Make a slide on your comp, take a pic of your monitor with your phone.

To answer your question, the swap is located between Buffalo and Rochester up near lake Ontario. Maybe, try and email me again, and I'll check back here if I don't hear from you in the near future. |

Hi all, long time no post! Tara I am looking so forward to the swap. I've been busy working on the house (flood damage), so havent posted in forever. With this weather lately I think I'll bring water lillies and bog plants for everyones backyard.

I have grasses galore to bring and some shrubbery: blue muffin viburnum Glen |
Hey Glen, Nice to see you here! If you could bring me another one of those Tiger Eye Sumacs I would appreciate it. The one you brought last year did not make it. Thanks, |

Ugh, flooding Glen? That stinks. We were there last year although at least ours was minor. Hope it wasn't too bad. 1 week away! I hope you all will forgive the massive weeds in my gardens! On the positive side, I've been potting things up left and right. I'll get at least a partial list out in the next few days |
Glen I will bring you some bamboo -Rosalinda |
O.k. brenda I have three blue muffins over two feet tall, they are yours if you want. They leaf out beautifully each year but I get leaf beetle on them and I hate using pesticides. I hope you have better luck with them. Flowergirl34 Little henry all yours, I just needed more real estate in the garden. I am interested in the ruby giant sounds cool. Brenda I'll try the r. horternsia. I will take orders for grasses but I dont think I will bring as much as I have in years past unless anyone wants some. Cant wait! Glen |
Glen, Thank you! I have some Canna patens if you are interested . It is a small species Canna from Mexico which only grow about 2 to 2 1/2 ft. tall In perfect conditions about 3 ft. but quite bushy It has beutiful yellow and red bi-colored blooms. I grew mine from last years seeds so they are still rather small but will grow fast once we get some warm weather. I added a link below so you can see what it looks like. Penny |

Hi! I am so sorry to have to post this, but I will be unable to attend on Sunday. I just picked my daughter up from school about an hour ago. She's vomiting and has the stomach bug (its been going around at school and I've been holding my breath till she got it) OF COURSE! She gets it the weekend we have plans. When I got the call I was actually outside setting up my pots with dirt for transplants. I am so sorry and very upset that I won't be making it :( I have some side trades that I was doing on Sunday as well. I'll email everyone and if you still want to do the trades I can mail them. And if you don't want to do them, that's okay too. I so so so apologize for this and just feel awful! Taylor feels worse, poor kid! I hope everyone has a great time on Sunday...and pray for me that I don't have the bug by then :( vina |

Students at Righetti High School now have the materials to work on a project for a local business. Karen McConell teaches a Communications Technology class at Righetti High School and was awarded a $250 check. The award was a joint effort with KSBY and Century-21 Hometown realtor, Eddie Stanfield, to help local classrooms.
Mrs. McConell said she was approached to make a brochure for a business. This money allows her to purchase textbooks so students can do that project professionally. McConell said, "I think that it's going to mean a lot to these kids to realize what they're learning in the classroom can be used out there in the real world."
To get an application for your class just visit the Hot Spot on ksby.com and click on Your Family.
