geographical name \fe-ˈrär-ä\Definition of FERRARA
geographical name (Concise Encyclopedia)City (pop., 2001 prelim.: 130,461), northern Italy. Situated near the Po River, it is probably the site of the ancient Forum Alieni. Ferrara first appears in historical records in AD 753, when it was captured from Ravenna by the Lombards. It became a cultural centre and the seat of a principality, but it declined after its incorporation into the Papal States in 1598. The site of an Austrian garrison from 1832, Ferrara became part of the Kingdom of Italy in 1861. It was severely damaged in World War II. Sites of interest include a 12th-century cathedral, a 14th-century moated castle, and the University of Ferrara (founded 1391).

I buy my heucheras at local nurseries but the selection seems limited. I've always bought perennials online as well but really would like to see the leaf color in person as I am purple-crazy.
The local selection seems limited. Where do you buy your heucheras? Is there a specialty nursery for them online? |
Follow-Up Postings:
I've bought from several sources. I knew I wanted a Frosted Violet and my local nursery carried it, so I bought it. I've bought several different ones from Bluestone and have had good results. I've also bought from Well Sweep Herb Farm which is local to me but is also a national mail order nursery. |

I buy mine from Home depot. For the ones they do not carry, I order from ilovehostas.net. They have almost all the varieties (and hostas too). It is a little expensive $10-12, but very high quality. Plant grows very fast, great and fast service. Most of the time the plants come in 3-inch pots, but deep rooted. I planted a few Cajun Fire last fall from them. This year they already grow into mature size. |

For anyone ordering in Canada, I found that Floral and Hardy had an excellent selection! The plants were wonderful, healthy and each of them had a great root system. I also compared prices and ordered from Hortico the ones that Floral and Hardy either didn't have or were much cheaper at Hortico. I don't recommend for anyone to order from Hortico. Of the five heuchera I ordered... -Sugar Plum was confirmed and then not available. -Mahogany had two leaves and the center was moldy. -One was sold to me as Root Beer but when it came it was hemerocallis Root Beer and not heuchera Root Beer. They had the same code in their books for both. grrrr... -I did get one heuchera from them though that looks great....Lime Marmalade. That one was a beautiful plant and had a nice root system to it. And, then even though Hortico quotes a certain price for the number of plants ordered, in fine print you actually pay for what it really cost them to send it. Well...the daylily was HUGE and because of it the weight went up and so did the size of the package thus making the postage quite a bit more. This will be the first and last time I will order from Hortico. Brenda |

I buy most locally but have ordered half a dozen or so from Santa Rosa Gardens online. All on sale. Very happy with them. |
Thanks for the input, everyone. I'm guessing most people buy what they can find locally. I'm surprised at how few I'm finding locally tho--guess I need to go farther afield. And a2zmom, thanks for mentioning Well Sweep Farm. I've never been there but I've read about it. They have been around a long time and I'm glad they still are. |
Our local nursery prices are insane, so I only buy locally from HD and Lowe's. Most of my Heucheras were bought online. Here are my favorite places:

Page Six's Kimye Wedding Spy Survived A Golden Toilet Tower
Let's begin. Page Six's spy noted that the wedding party wanted to be as removed from potential paparazzi cameras as possible. The solution: They had cranes lift everything necessary to carry out the dream wedding 270 feet to the most inaccessible part of Forti di Belvedere. This included 10 life-sized, black, marble statues (four had missing heads, and the other 20 were damaged — oops), a "long marble table" that had seating placements engraved right into the marble (some were misspelled, though — oops again), and a 49-foot tall, gold box that housed the bathrooms (casual).
According to one Italian, the golden toilet box was apparently "the star of the show." Before the ceremony, West used a saw to cut the bar in front of it in half. The spy claimed he was screaming that it looked like a Texas bar and called it "art" after ordering that slabs of wood be nailed to the front. Then he clicked his heels three times and disappeared in a puff of diamond dust. (Kidding!)
Technology snafus plagued the wedding. Kanye apparently said the sound system, the "single best system in Europe," wasn't minimal enough. He ended up playing tunes from his iPod before a sufficiently minimal replacement was installed at dinner. There were also a ton lighting issues. Kardashian is said to have checked out the scene before the event and unplugged half the lights in the cocktail area because a beam was shining on her crotch. West, at a different moment in the prep, said, "I'm in the center of this party, and I'm the only one people need to see. The rest of these people don't need lights on them." It's rumored he gave a 45-minute toast to himself, too.
A few other details: Guests were said to have been pretty loose on the drinks before the ceremony started, a Justin Bieber fan needed hospitalization after falling while trying to see if Bieber was there (he wasn't), and
Of course, whether or not any of this is actually true is unknown. Someone could write that Kim K. sprouted wings and ascended from the heavens like a delicate hawk while holograms of the Medici family provided musical entertainment, and America would eat it up. Or, maybe we'd throw up our hands and say, "Pics or it didn't happen." Or, we could demand receipts. Show us receipts. (Page Six)

I have been searching for a 30" SS slide in range and am (like others) having difficulty selecting the right range that has a SS top as there are few. I am struggling between the GE Profile PGS920 and Jenn Air JDS8860. I read the thread on the GE but cannot find anything on the quality and reliability of the Jenn Air. Any feedback would be much appreciated or may have to settle for a Bertazonni free standing. Thx |

We have had a 30" Jenn Air slide in for 6 or so years. We have had a repairman out twice so far - the self cleaning did not work, but he fixed that. The oven has ALWAYS baked unevenly, but they found nothing wrong. The temperature is never correct and one side cooks hotter than the other. As for the burners (our is an electric smooth top), they are OK, but not great. We can achieve a decent boil on only 2 of the burners. I would not buy a Jenn Air again. My next range will be an induction. |

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

Bush scolds "brutal regimes" as he pushes democracy
(Adds anti-Bush protests, Cuba foreign minister walking out)
UNITED NATIONS, Sept 25 (Reuters) - U.S. President George W. Bush on
Tuesday rallied fellow U.N. members to what he called a mission of
liberation and named Belarus, Syria, Iran and North Korea as "brutal
regimes" that deny people their rights.
With national representatives seated before him on the opening day of the
U.N. General Assembly, Bush also scolded the governments of Myanmar,
Zimbabwe and Cuba as he called for the spread of democracy, a consistent
theme of his U.N. speeches.
"This great institution must work for great purposes: to free people from
tyranny and violence, hunger and diseases, illiteracy and ignorance and
poverty and despair. Every member of the United Nations must join in this
mission of liberation," he said.
Bush said Americans were "outraged" over human rights abuses in Myanmar
and announced new U.S. sanctions on its military rulers who are facing the
biggest anti-government protests in two decades.
He criticized the Zimbabwe government headed by President Robert Mugabe as
"tyrannical" and an "assault on its people."
"The United Nations must insist on change in Harare and must insist for
the freedom of the people of Zimbabwe," Bush said.
Critics accuse Mugabe of sending Zimbabwe's once-thriving economy to a
crisis of widespread food shortages and soaring inflation. Mugabe accuses
Western countries of sabotaging the economy as punishment for his seizure
of white-owned farms to resettle landless blacks.
Alluding to Cuban leader Fidel Castro, who has been ill, Bush said his
rule of the island was "nearing its end" and said free speech and
elections should follow a transition in power.
The comment prompted Cuban Foreign Minister Felipe Perez Roque to walk out
of the U.N. General Assembly hall in protest. Cuba's U.N. mission called
Bush's speech "arrogant."
Addressing the crisis in Sudan's western Darfur region, which has been
ravaged by violence, Bush said the United Nations must follow through on a
pledge to deploy peacekeeping forces.
"In Belarus, North Korea, Syria and Iran, brutal regimes deny their people
the fundamental rights enshrined in the Universal Declaration (of Human
Rights)," he added.
Bush praised some countries as having "taken strides toward liberty,
including Ukraine and Georgia and Kyrgyzstan and Mauritania and Liberia,
Sierra Leone and Morocco."
Bush repeated U.S. criticism of the U.N.'s Human Rights Council, which he
said "has been silent on repression by regimes from Havana to Caracas to
Pyongyang and Tehran while focusing its criticism excessively on Israel."
U.S. foes see Bush's "freedom agenda" as a way to bully countries which
the Bush administration opposes.
They say that while Washington is pointing the finger at others, it has
faced widespread condemnation for its treatment of prisoners in Iraq and
Afghanistan and terrorism suspects at the U.S. military prison at
Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.
Outside the United Nations, around 700 protesters chanted, "Bush and
Cheney out the door, stop the torture, stop the wars." Many wore orange to
symbolize action, and some carried coffins to highlight opposition to the
Iraq war.

Gruber begins dissection of Google Desktop
In our sneak peak at the new Google Desktop for Mac, Scott wondered at Google's use of a proprietary installer. Like many Mac users, I get annoyed at installers, though I understand that sometimes they are necessary. Similarly concerned, John Gruber at Daring Fireball performed a test install and then did a file level comparison of his system before and after. As Gruber notes: "This matters with Google Desktop, because there are a lot of files, and they're installed into some interesting - if not suspicious - locations." This includes an Input Manager and some possibly questionable kernel extensions (which are likely necessary to make the full system-wide search possible). I should be clear: nobody is accusing Google of doing anything underhanded, but if you like to know exactly what's going on with your system, John's article is worth a read before installing Google Desktop.

Can publishers change video advertising -- for the better?
Advertisers purchase millions of dollars' worth of online video inventory every month. Pre-roll, mid-roll, post-roll, you name it, publishers and networks are finding a roll to sell as inventory. And advertising agencies are spending it like kids who just got their allowance in a candy store.
And that might be the biggest problem. Apparently, it's too easy to buy online video.
Is it possible that although the creative community complains about too much online video advertising being merely repurposed :15 and :30 spots, we've lost sight of what the real problem may be? Have publishers made it so easy to insert these standard pods that we've been conditioned to take shortcuts and just run TV spots -- because it's so darn simple?
If that's the case, we've got a serious issue here. And it's at our own expense.
This week, I was a panelist at the Future Marketing Summit, where I got to hear some of the brightest minds in marketing talk about where advertising, products, and consumers will be headed. One case study presentation focused on Saturn's recent Google Video ad campaign. Take a look at an ad from this campaign.
When the campaign results were analyzed, guess where most people stopped watching the video?
Correct. When they realized that they'd just started watching a TV spot.
In an age when technology delivers ad exposures at every turn and enables many ways to skip advertising, the TV spot's hard sell is less and less effective. So while companies like Microsoft are allocating highly significant dollars into online advertising, will we just see the same amount of :15 and :30 spots, except online?
I sure hope not. If we do, it will commoditize what could potentially be the most unique thing about the interactive medium: its potential for unbridled media creativity.
While standard TV spots may work for content that's already entertaining, like movies, television and shows, non-entertainment-related spots come across as advertiser-created noise -- the same, unavoidable noise repeated over and over.
Publishers dictate what inventory can be sold and can publishing best practices that would educate advertisers and agencies as to how best to work with their audiences, content, players, and technology.
I implore every publisher to identify an upcoming video campaign that can serve as a case study. Encourage the agency or advertiser to run a traditional TV spot in a mix with either an animated Flash ad or a made-for-the-medium custom video message you believe will work. For kicks, throw in a non-video-based format, such as a text overlay or watermark. Line up the results, and compare effectiveness in the following categories: click-throughs, viewing-time length, conversions (where applicable), and costs per interaction. My hunch is this will be the last time you run a TV spot online.
As a matter of fact, if any publisher takes the challenge and puts this case study together, I'll feature it in an upcoming column.
One of the great responsibilities we have is to be more effective than previous media generations. Publishers must resist the temptation to sacrifice advertiser effectiveness in favor of easy-money, strict :15, :30, pre-/post-/mid-roll standards. Agencies must push their clients to make strategic changes that will result in improved effectiveness. Advertisers must reassess their online strategy if that strategy merely consists of moving ads from one medium to another.
The responsibility is shared by us all, and so is the guilt. Publishers have the power to make the industry react.
Who will step up and take the challenge?

There is considerable debate concerning prognosis in patients with advanced cancer (advanced cancer patients, ACP), but no one has systematically examined the relationship between awareness of prognosis and hopefulness. In this study, the relationships among awareness of prognosis, hopefulness, and coping were examined in a selected group of ACP.
Patients and methods
All subjects were enrolled in phase I trials. Information was obtained from subjects via structured, face-to-face interviews. Subjects provided demographic information, answered questions designed to ascertain their awareness of their prognosis, and completed the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy—General instrument (FACT-G).
A total of 179 consecutive subjects enrolled in phase I trials were interviewed. Awareness of prognosis was assessed using a semiquantitative scale. Willingness to provide responses to the question was significantly negatively correlated with hopefulness (r=−0.306, P=0.030). Using items from the FACT-G, hopefulness and coping were positively correlated (r=0.140, P=0.097). Female subjects were more realistic about their prognosis than men (b=0.568, P=0.026). More educated patients had higher response rates to the prognosis questions (OR 1.62, P<0.001), and demonstrated a more realistic awareness of prognosis (b=0.225, P=0.030). Overall, there was a strong association between coping status and responding to the prognosis questions (P=0.033). Patients who reported being "not at all proud of coping" had a lower response rate than patients who reported better coping.
Among the ACP who provided responses, many reported an unrealistic view of their prognosis. Having a more accurate view of prognosis in the face of terminal illness was associated with reduced hopefulness, which may be related to a poorer sense of coping. Finally, the prognosis question utilized in the study was problematic, led to a fairly poor response rate, and may be indicative of the many difficulties present in attempting to accurately assess ACPs' perceptions of their prognosis. Other methods, such as in-depth qualitative methods, may lead to more productive inquiry into ACPs' awareness of their prognosis. Further research into the accurate assessment of awareness of prognosis is needed.

Governor Moonbeam signed AB144 last night, making it a misdemeanor to open carry an unloaded weapon anywhere in public in California. Just a FYI!SACRAMENTO, Calif. (KABC) -- California Gov. Jerry Brown has signed a measure that bans the open carrying of handguns, his office announced Monday morning. The law, AB144, makes it a misdemeanor to carry an exposed and unloaded gun in a public place. Top state law enforcement officials supported the law. Opponents said the bill violates the public's Second Amendment rights. Brown had more 100 bills to sign or veto before a midnight deadline.

maybe they should just outlaw and ban STUPIDITY I mean carrying an UNloaded gun is just that.... but i guess if they oulawed stupidity that would outlaw 90% of that state...including legislature.
its California, you are lucky to even have the ability to own firearms. let alone hope for an open carry. just thank the lord you dont have to live in Illinois. have to carry a card to show you have firearms, i dont know how you people live with yourself.
<Insert overused badass Latin phrase about war, or something> Any one that hates the government is not always a terrorist. Any one for a better America is not always a patriot.
Yep, governor Moonbeam outlawed the open carry of unloaded weapons in CA. This is a gross violation of the Second Amendment rights of CA citizens. Now do you want to know which CA governor set the stage for this action? It was Ronald Reagan, the so called "gunowners friend". In 1967 Reagan outlawed the carry of loaded weapons in the state of CA when he signed the Mulford Act into law. BTW: Reagan's anti-gun shenanigans did not stop with the Mulford Act.

yeah, Reagan wasnt the golden boy everyone wants to hold him up as. I wonder how many of those that think Reagan was so great actually know he was a Democrat in the liberal state of CA and changed to a Rep. so he could get elected as POTUS.

Some of Donn F. Flipse's earliest memories are of him wielding a broom, sweeping up the fallen petals and snipped-off stamen that have gathered around the feet of the floral designers at his family's flower shop. Eight-year-old Donn eventually moved up in rank, escorting arrangements to their destinations in the delivery truck as soon as he got his license. When he graduated college, he almost turned his back on the flower business his father and his grandfather built, but after mentoring under one of the shop's floral designers, he realized, ?It was in his blood.? In 1990, he opened Field of Flowers in Davie.
The rose, he says, continues to be the most popular flower, although different breeds take the crown every so often?the current favorite is the garden rose, a throwback blossom like what might flourish in a well-tended backyard. Donn's favorites are the rose-like lisanthius and the Canterbury bells, which look delicate but are sturdy and long lasting, much like a quarterback who takes ballet classes.
Field of Flower's team of designers compose striking arrangements using popular flowers as well as rare blooms such as orchids or birds of paradise. The team also crafts design pieces for celebrations, with past creations including a french poodle sculpted from flowers and a Spongebob Squarepants?themed arrangements in which blue gel simulated the ocean, submerging plants in an under-the-sea wonderland.

(Gus Ruelas/AP)The Dallas Cowboys made wholesale changes to their coaching staff Tuesday, installing former St. Louis Rams coach Scott Linehan as passing game coordinator, moving Monte Kiffin from defensive coordinator to an assistant head coaching position and promoting former Detroit Lions head coach Rod Marinelli from defensive line coach to defensive coordinator, according to Pro Football Talk.The Cowboys ranked 16th in the NFL in total offense but averaged 94.2 yards a game, ranking 24th in the league."Our responsibility is to bring quality people into our organization and find the best fit for them.

Monte was brought here to direct a transition in philosophy to the 4-3 scheme, and he will continue to oversee the development of our defense in this scheme.But their defense was historically bad, ranking dead last in the NFL in total defense and surrendering 415.3 yards a game, almost 20 yards more than the closest team.
