Its great to get bird or butterfly photos on a plant that's blooming. It doesn't get easier than the 10 x 10 coneflower patch I grew from seed. The finches can't wait for their turn later in the season. My large patch of crocosmia did not survive winter. Should have dug them up and stored them. They were good for the 5 previous years. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Excellent photos, they look quite similar to some I did with the same species. Last year was the (what did they say?) a 100 yr winter ? with record lows ? |
Thanks for sharing your photos. It has been fun watching the swallowtails flitting around the echinacea and spiraling up, up and up as they chase each other. See monarchs, red admirals, and painted ladies there also. Kids next door check my milkweed and flowers for caterpillars and release the butterflies back to the garden when they emerge. Lots of interesting dragonflies this year as well. |
Beautiful on three counts: the flowers, the butterflies, and your photos. This is a great time of year for echinacea. Nice work and thanks for sharing! |

Stunning photos! How long ago were the echinacea seeds sown? Which variety? Thanks for sharing. |

Wow! Great shots. I like the old fashioned normal echinacea the best by miles-- you can't beat that form or the orange/purple color combination. I haven't seen too many butterflies yet this season, I saw one black swallowtail the other day and I think I saw a Gulf fritillary from the upstairs window. Its been dismal so far. |
Its the 'old fashioned normal echinacea'. In 3 years the 2 patches are solid to the point of no mulch, no weeds. Intially I scattered the seeds of a few echs I had. Then I just left the seed heads on all winter after that. I iron raked the area(the first year) in the fall before I scattered the seeds in November. The first year typically got me nice plants few flowers. Then it was off to the races. I have at least 250 sq ft between 2 patches. It cost me nothing. I divided my Hyperion daylilies and have a yellow and purple extravaganza. I tossed in some old fashioned red canna that multiply like rabbits.Those I have to dig every year. Weeds cant get going in this jungle of color. Its a mid summer ...long blooming...low maintenance tapestry. It shows up well in a border thats away from the house due to the size of the plants. You could see it a block away.. |
Incredibly clear sharp photos crunchpa. I get an extra thrill these days seeing butterflies and bees on flowers as it is so much rarer to see them :(. There is little doubt that our use of pesticides have contributed in large part to their pending demise. |
- Posted by TexasRanger10 7 (My Page) on Thu, Jul 31, 14 at 18:27
crunchpa, I'd like to see a shot of the whole area if you could. 250 sq feet must be a sight. |
That is so true about the butterflies in this area. The coneflower were loaded with bees, though seeing honey bees is rare. When I visit family in the Carolinas and Virginia though, it is not the case. Lots of butterflies. More swallowtails than anything. I read clear cutting forest in Central America has had a big effect. I will get a photo of the coneflower beds. One is 15 x 10 as I was looking at it today. The other is probably 6 x 30. There are a few Russian Sage in there also,another plant that easily is multiplied. There is enough seed from Karens echs to fill that bed. Once they get some size you can move them around for better spacing. If you cut the seed heads off before they dry out, you are able to keep your area of echs in check. They are shallow rooted and easy to manage anyway though. A friend of mine is building a house with a very long driveway. We are going to do some epic coneflower patches I think. I have the seed to do it. Its something to do with large spaces that doesnt need to be permanent , Easy to go back to square one. Initially there is some weeding to do before the echs get large enough. 3 year process. |

India's PM Modi assures Bhutan of support, strengthening of bonds during visit
THIMPHU (Reuters) - Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi assured Bhutan on Sunday of India's support during his first trip abroad, a move seen as an attempt to assert his country's influence in South Asia, where China is steadily making inroads.
Mr Modi, given a ceremonial welcome in Bhutan's capital Thimphu nestled in mist-covered mountains, opened a Supreme Court building constructed with Indian assistance.
On Monday, he will lay the foundation for a 600MW hydroelectric power station, part of an energy cooperation plan to feed demand in Bhutan, and also India. "PM underlined that he would not only nurture strong bonds but would also strengthen them," a government official said after Mr Modi's talks with Bhutan's King Jigme Kesar Wangchuk and Prime Minister Tshering Tobgay.
His decision to make tiny Bhutan his first destination was the latest in a series of unconventional policy choices by India's new prime minister, who came to power last month on the promise of making his country an economic and military power.

A study on frog embryos by researchers from Hebrew University in Israel suggests how exposure to ethanol can result in the teratogenic effects of fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD) (Kot-Leibovich H and Fainsod A. Dis Model Mech. 2009;2[5-6]:295-305).
Previously, scientists had discovered that exposing a frog embryo to alcohol during gastrulation reduces retinoic acid (RA) signaling (which is required for normal embryogenesis) and can result in the abnormalities associated with the disorder. Researchers theorized that alcohol exerts this effect on RA through the enzyme retinaldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (RALDH2), which appears in vertebrate embryos at the onset of gastrulation and is involved in metabolizing vitamin A to RA.
Graphic Jump Location
Researchers used embryos from the African clawed frog (Xenopus laevis) to study how alcohol exposure can create the teratogenic effects of fetal alcohol spectrum disorder.

Instead, you take an incident where innocent people were beaten to a pulp solely because of their race and manage to spin it so the blame rests on the "conservative propaganda machine?"

BINDERY matters
August 2010Third Miniature Folder Meets GMS' Growth Demands
EL PASO, TX—GMS Industries has added a third Vijuk-G&K SAF 36 folder to sustain its continuing growth in miniature folding. "The decision of purchasing another Vijuk was an easy one," says George Shimshock, plant manager. "Not only is it a reliable folder, but the training and support are two main reasons why we have invested in several Vijuk folders."
In addition, Javier Quintero, GMS bindery supervisor, and David Garcia, maintenance supervisor, note the ease of setups and changing or replacing the shafts as additional features, as well as the flexibility of having the controls on the feed end and the receiving end, so they don't have to stand in one place to run the machine.
Programmable Cutter Relieves Bottlenecks
DALLAS—Johnson Printing Service has installed a four-up Polar 78X programmable paper cutter featuring optional right and left side tables with air supply for easier material handling. It joins an existing Polar 78 EM cutter in the company's full-service bindery.
Johnson Printing Service specializes in the production of loose-leaf books, manuals, softcover books and a wide range of educational and training materials, most of which wind up at the cutter for trimming. Traffic to and from the cutting department ranges "from busy to really busy," according to CEO Bob Johnson Jr., noting the 20 percent increase in productivity from the new cutter.
Shop Automates Softcover Book Manufacturing
AGAWAM, MA—Bridgeport National Bindery has finished implementing a Web-to-print production line that is believed to be one of the world's first fully automated systems for printing and manufacturing softcover books on-demand.
The trade bindery expects to shorten turnaround times on producing softcover books from two days to within 12 to 24 hours by acting automatically on customer orders placed electronically.
The system consists of a cover-driven workflow that features a C.P. Bourg BBF2005 Book Factory connected to a Xerox Nuvera 288 press. The Book Factory and a three-knife trimmer are controlled by the Book-Trac manufacturing integrity system from Productive Solutions.
Printer Brings Perfect Binding Work In-House
SAN ANTONIO—Shweiki Media specializes in short- to medium-size, niche publication printing, encompassing 250 different titles. In the past, it outsourced its perfect binding work but, since that part of its business is growing, the company decided to offer the capability in-house.

When I got my Novice ticket in 1978, the Russian Woodpecker was at its peak. Developed to detect ICBM launches, the over-the-horizon radars known as Duga-1, Duga-2 and Duga-3 caused an incredible amount of QRM on the 20- and 40-meter ham bands. Even Radio Moscow was not immune.
The system became operational in 1976 amid much speculation as to its purpose and operated with an estimated transmitter power of 10 megawatts anywhere (and everywhere!) between 7 and 19 MHz. Transmit times were brief as radars go – typically 7 minutes at a time, then a QSY elsewhere.
Hams, irritated by the QRM, formed the Russian Woodpecker Hunting Club whose goal was to QRM the QRMer by sending properly timed pulses on the radar's frequency. Reports of effectiveness vary but no doubt it felt good to fight back.
All three sites that made up the Russian Woodpecker were actually located in Ukraine with each transmitter and receiver site being located approximately 35 km apart.
The woodpecker's antenna was a monster – 150m tall, 500m wide and weighing in at 14,000 tons. It still stands today in that post-modern wasteland known as the Chernoby Exclusion Zone. Call it a new kind of radio-activity where cesium-137 and strontium-90 have replaced good old-fashioned RF as the primary emission of note.
As of October 2013, Ukrainian officials now allow tourists to visit the site of Duga-3 within the Exclusion Zone. Base-jumping, anyone?!
Interestingly, the Chernobyl nuclear accident occurred in 1986 – Duga-3 didn't go QRT until 1989. Hmm…
Check out the video of the antenna below. To see some amazing (and very melancholy) photos of many a DXer's Cold War foe, click here.

Arizona Regional Medical Center is racing to open its second hospital - Apache Junction's first - before health care reform legislation could restrict expansion by for-profit hospitals.
Arizona Regional Medical Center opened in northwest Mesa in late September 2008 after Mesa General Hospital closed that May. The for-profit hospital is owned by 42 investors, most of whom are physicians.
It is now preparing to open its second hospital on Southern Avenue west of Ironwood Drive. Arizona Regional Medical Center Apache Junction campus will include 30 patient beds, including 10 intensive care unit beds and 20 medical surgical beds. The hospital is investing nearly $30 million in the Apache Junction campus.
About 200 jobs will be created by the new hospital, said Brent Cope, Arizona Regional Medical Center's CEO.
"We're hoping to get it open by the end of the year," he said. "Last year there were 500 emergency admissions (at the Mesa hospital) who were people who live (in the Apache Junction area). That's quite a block of people who have to go to a different city for those services. This is a growing community."
Arizona Regional has converted a physician's office into a 32,000-square-foot, full-service hospital with an emergency room. It will offer all services provided at the Mesa hospital, including vascular surgery, general surgery and open-heart surgery, Cope said.
"We're expecting a pretty good influx of patients right away." he said. "We can expect 1,000 to 1,500 emergency room visits a month almost right away. We're expecting to have on average 15 to 20 patients as inpatients on any given day, and then the surgeries that go along with that. We've got capacity to do 200 to 400 surgeries a month depending on what kind of surgeries they are. Capacity is 30 inpatients at a time, and so we expect to get pretty close to that 30 quickly given the fact that it will be the first hospital coming into the Valley from the east side."
Arizona Regional already has submitted the paperwork to obtain its federal Medicare license, Cope said. It hopes to receive the license before health care reform legislation limits expansion by physician-owned hospitals, he said.
"The health care reform, if it would have been enacted when they wanted it to be, the deadline (for expansions) would have already passed," Cope said. "The deadline was November 1, and it's been moved. In the U.S. Senate, it's sitting on January 1 and in the U.S. House of Representatives it's on February 1. There's lots of debating going back and forth."
Not-for-profit hospitals have been fighting to get restrictions placed on for-profit hospitals expanding, said Eugene Schneller, a professor in the School of Health Management and Policy in the W.P. Carey School of Business at Arizona State University. He is monitoring the status of health care reform legislation.
"Obviously (not-for-profit hospitals) compete with them, and they believe that they provide an unfair playing field to the extent that they allegedly take away paying patients and don't take as much indigent care, and they allegedly have a different quality of care," he said. "We've looked at the data pretty carefully, and the data tends to suggest that that's not entirely true and that there's almost a convergence in terms of quality of care provided ... and providing benefits to the community."
Most of Arizona Regional's patients are federally funded, and that will be the case in Apache Junction, Cope said.
"There's a fair percentage of retirees out here in Apache Junction ... and the older you get the more frequent your trips to the hospital," he said. "The Medicare population would be significant out here, so we would see somewhere in the vicinity of 70 to 75 percent federally funded patients, and that's before health care reform."
There are no current restrictions on for-profit hospital expansions, but that could change with health care reform, Schneller said.
"There are a lot of interest groups in this, and the for-profit/not-for-profit issue is clearly a big issue."

Mardi Gras spirit fills New Orleans Saints victory parade
Loyal New Orleans Saints fans stuck with their team through years of lousy records. Now, says Debby Wood, who joined the celebrating throng, 'It's like the prodigal son finally came home.'
Bill Haber/AP
New Orleans
New Orleans has had a few days to get used to its newfound gridiron hero status, but if Tuesday night's Super Bowl parade is any indication, the city –indeed, the entire state as well as the South in general – will be celebrating the 43-year old franchise's first NFL championship for a long time.
As the smell of barbecue filled the air and the sounds of competing boom boxes, high school bands, and car stereos rang from the buildings, thousands of people lined the streets to cheer, welcoming the Saints home to a Mardi Gras-flavored tailgate party. Gold confetti littered the air as "the boys" waved and threw beads from atop their perches on borrowed floats.
The parade culminated at the foot of Convention Center Boulevard, where Sens. Mary Landrieu and David Vitter, Gov. Bobby Jindal, and Mayor Ray Nagin toasted the team with champagne.

I have seen the end … and it's all about infrastructure -- and business users couldn't care less. It came to me in a dream, but it might as well have been during some kind of peyote ritual. I get it now; I know where we have to go. Forget the application world for a minute or, as I like to call it, the users. I want to talk about IT as the owners of infrastructure and the keepers of data. There are two absolutes. On one end of the world are users who connect to our universe via an application interface. The only thing users care about is their application. The only thing that application cares about is the data it requires to perform its function. Data is at the other end of the world. Everything in the middle is infrastructure, which is our problem.

ABSTRACT: Although existence of humoral immunity has been previously shown in malignant pleural effusions, only a limited number of immunogenic tumor-associated antigens (TAA) have been identified and associated with lung cancer. In this study, we intended to identify more TAAs in pleural effusion-derived tumor cells. Using morphologically normal lung tissues as a control lysate in Western blotting analyses, 54 tumor samples were screened with autologous effusion antibodies. Biochemical purification and mass spectrometric identification of TAAs were done using established effusion tumor cell lines as antigen sources. We identified a p48 antigen as alpha-enolase (ENO1). Semiquantitative immunohistochemistry was used to evaluate expression status of ENO1 in the tissue samples of 80 patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and then correlated with clinical variables. Using ENO1-specifc antiserum, up-regulation of ENO1 expression in effusion tumor cells from 11 of 17 patients was clearly observed compared with human normal lung primary epithelial and non-cancer-associated effusion cells. Immunohistochemical studies consistently showed high level of ENO1 expression in all the tumors we have examined thus far. Log-rank and Cox's analyses of ENO1 expression status revealed that its expression level in primary tumors was a key factor contributing to overall- and progression-free survivals of patients (P < 0.05). The same result was also obtained in the early stage of NSCLC patients, showing that tumors expressing relatively higher ENO1 level were tightly correlated with poorer survival outcomes. Our data strongly support a prognostic role of ENO1 in determining tumor malignancy of patients with NSCLC.Clinical Cancer Research 10/2006; 12(19):5746-54. · 8.19 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: A different degree of immunodeficiency is often found at tumor sites in cancer patients. At the late stage many patients develop malignant effusion that contains large numbers of tumor cells and host immune cells that constantly interact with each other. These sites may provide an ideal model to examine in situ anti-tumor immunity. The T cells in effusion were found to be immunodeficient, which suggested a defective anti-tumor cytotoxic T lymphocytes response. To pursue the mechanism for the T cell deficiency, we determined the production of immunomodulating cytokines in the effusion and detected the presence of transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGFbeta), prostaglandin E2, IL-6, IL-10, and IFNgamma. There was no detectable IL-2, IL-4, IL-12, or TNFalpha. The most prominent feature was the presence of TGFbeta and IL-6 at a very high level. Thus, the possible role of these two cytokines on T cell competence was further determined. TGFbeta was found to induce T cell anergy and reduced the production of perforin in T killer cells and their lytic activity. These events lead to the induction of peripheral T cell tolerance with profound T cell deficiency. IL-6 did not affect perforin production or cytolytic activity of the T killer cells. But the CD4+ CD25+ regulatory T cells (TR) that were often employed by TGFbeta to suppress T cell response were reduced in the malignant effusion, consistent with the fact that IL-6 down-regulates TR and this may represent the host's vigorous response to the tumor's subversion. These results show that TGFbeta and IL-6 might play pivotal but opposing roles in the host tumor interaction that, together with other immunomodulating components, determines the outcome for the development of local tumor immunity.Immunobiology 02/2005; 210(9):661-71. · 3.18 Impact Factor

(Updates with closing share price in fifth paragraph.)
June 16 (Bloomberg) -- Takeda Pharmaceutical Co.'s diabetes drug Actos may raise bladder cancer risks in patients who take the medicine for more than a year, U.S. regulators said.
A five-year interim analysis of data from a decade-long company-sponsored study showed a greater likelihood of bladder cancer in patients who took the drug for the longest periods of time, and at the highest cumulative doses, the Food and Drug Administration said in a safety announcement yesterday. The medicine from Osaka, Japan-based Takeda, Asia's biggest drugmaker, wasn't linked to an overall increased cancer risk in all patients who took it.
Actos, the world's biggest-selling diabetes drug, had shown a potential risk of bladder cancer in earlier studies on rats and humans. Takeda won FDA approval of the treatment in 1999 and agreed to conduct the 10-year study to assess that risk. Actos became the market leader after a 2007 study showed a 43 percent higher chance of heart attacks from London-based GlaxoSmithKline Plc's Avandia.
Takeda said it is working with the FDA to make "appropriate updates" to the drug's prescribing information. The company is "confident in the therapeutic benefits of Actos and its importance as a treatment for Type 2 diabetes," Takeda said in a statement.
Takeda shares fell 1.9 percent to 3,640 yen in Tokyo trading today, while the benchmark Topix Index lost 1.5 percent.
Initial Findings
The FDA announcement updated preliminary findings released nine months ago. The agency had said Sept. 17 that while it hadn't found a statistically significant link between Actos and bladder cancer, the risk appeared to be higher in patients who took the drug for the longest duration, and at the highest cumulative doses.
The median duration of therapy was two years for patients treated with Actos, according to the FDA announcement. Treatment times ranged from 2.4 months to 8.5 years.
Doctors shouldn't prescribe Actos to patients with active bladder cancer, the agency said. In patients with a history of bladder cancer, the drug's benefits in controlling blood sugar levels "should be weighed against the unknown risks for cancer recurrence," the FDA said.
Regulators in France said last week that the therapy will be withdrawn from the French market after a study they ordered showed a slight increase in the risk of bladder cancer.
Actos generated 384 billion yen ($4.1 billion) in sales in the fiscal year ended in March, Takeda reported.

I have an 18,000 gallon white plaster pool that I have teaken care of for the last 4 years. The pool came with the house and it was a foreclosure so I dont know how old the pool is but it does need replastering. Last fall a lot of leaves accumulated in the pool as well as other organic stuff (I have a "fruitless" pear tree that hangs over the edge of the pool at it dumps all kinds of very small pears) that I couldnt get cleaned up for some time and now that I've cleaned the pool there are permanent stains. Brown stains to be exact. What do I do about the stains? |

Za Ate Inai Touhou:The End Within Me
In a fair, quent city like Akuma City, it's name tells all on what to expect in this city...but to humans, it's just a name. What no Human in this city, besides demon followers such as cults, know's is that this city is filled with demons of all kinds, hiding, lurking around...killing...
Cults are the only known humans who know about the demons and worship them, leaving their group alone. But, they have to work in secretcy, otherwise humans will know and it will displease the demons. During the day they pass off as the preists of the city and only have the city's best interest at heart, but at night, they still think of the city...but turn into dark and evil cultist, preforming dark arts, and sacred rituals.
There are many different types of cult groups that secretly live in this city, but most of them are good, and just appease the demon lords to not harm or kill anyone in the city who didn't deserve it...but some were evil, and took in demons who disobeyed the treaty's, and kill innocent people, or make contracts and deals with humans that lead into their death, or the countless blood sheds of mass murder.
This increased more and more, until the good cults began to make contracts with the demons they serve to stop them.
They Evil was being fought back, and it would seem like evil would be pushed out through the city....until....the prophecy fortold of a great evil, that would not destroy akuma city, but also...
The world, and hell...

Running to glory
Philadelphia, PA (Sports Network)
- The media hype for most of the 2012-13 NFL season was all about the quarterbacks, five in particular: Peyton Manning, Colin Kaepernick and three rookie signal-callers. But for fantasy owners, there are usually enough quarterbacks for each owner to have at least one good one on their roster.
What is usually much tougher is finding enough quality running backs to fill your two starting spots and have depth in case of injury and to cover your bye weeks.
It also appears there won't be much help coming out of the college ranks in April's draft. At first look, there probably won't be a running back selected in the first round. The Sports Network's NFL editor, John McMullen, doesn't have the first running back going until pick No. 37 (Eddie Lacy to Cincinnati).
With that in mind it will be very important to evaluate last year's top running backs to know whether they can, and will, produce at least as well as last season.
Below we have studied the top-10 running backs from last season. Later we will evaluate the middle and lower end backs.
1) Adrian Peterson, Minnesota (349 fantasy points) -
I admit I had a bit of a "man crush" on Peterson as he led the Vikings and my team to victory. Coming so soon off major knee surgery, Peterson had a lot of people singing his praises. He posted 2,314 yards from scrimmage, including an amazing 2,097 on the ground, 40 receptions and 13 touchdowns. Superman is certainly capable to doing it again in 2013-14.
2) Arian Foster, Houston (295) -
Foster put up the second-best fantasy total for any running back, yet didn't set career highs in any category. He's rushed for more yards, caught more passes for more yards and scored more often in previous seasons. As long as the next-best rushing option is Ben Tate and the Texans don't find another quality receiving option opposite Andre Johnson, Foster figures to be as good or better next season.
3) Doug Martin, Tampa Bay (287) -
An end-of-the-first-round selection, the rookie was expected to eventually grab the job from LeGarrett Blount and he did. However, not even the most ardent Bucs' fan thought he could put up 1,926 yards from scrimmage and score 12 times to finish third among fantasy running backs. For those who had forgotten about him, a four-touchdown, 251-yard performance against Oakland in Week 8 brought his name to the forefront. He totaled 368 touches last season, which could eventually wear him down, but he's a three-down back who has a bright future.
4) Marshawn Lynch, Seattle (278) -
Lynch followed up a big 2011-12 season with another gem. He rushed for a career-high 1,590 yards and added 12 touchdowns. We're a little scared he's not involved in the passing game and second-year Russell Wilson could grab a bigger share of the offense. Mark this one down as likely to be close, but slightly under, last season's totals.
5) Alfred Morris, Washington 261) -
If he had any other coach, we would be excited about what Morris could do for a football team and a fantasy lineup. Alas, with Mike Shanahan steering the ship, we know he can change direction as often as he changes his shirt. During his 14 seasons as the Broncos' head coach, he had eight different players lead the team in rushing, and in three season with the Redskins he's had three different running backs show the way. Morris should certainly get the first shot to carry the load, but know that he does come with some risk.
6) Ray Rice, Baltimore (255) -
Last season, it always felt as if the Ravens under-used Rice and, in fact, he had 49 less touches than in 2011-12 when he rushed and received his way to a league-high total of 2,068 yards. Joe Flacco's success and big contract figure to make him the focal point of next season's offense, so Rice may be able to duplicate this year's effort, but with a more limited top end.
7) C.J. Spiller, Buffalo (238) -
It has finally became apparent to all that Spiller, and not Fred Jackson, is the best running back on the Bills' roster. Given the state of the Buffalo passing game, Spiller should see more than 250 touches and therefore could close in on a combined 2,000 yards. His one weakness is scoring touchdowns, with a career high of eight. If he can improve in the red zone, he should become a top-five running back.
8) Jamaal Charles, Kansas City (232) -
His new head coach, Andy Reid, has always been able to produce a top fantasy back despite the coach's love for the pass, and Charles should fit right into the Brian Westbrook/LeSean McCoy mode. Like Spiller, Charles needs to improve his ability to get into the end zone, but should still be a top-10 back without double-digit touchdowns.
9) Trent Richardson, Cleveland (224) -
Richardson's longest run from scrimmage was just 32 yards and his longest reception was for 27 yards. Talk about grinding it out. The Browns have yet to assemble a passing game to scare the opposition, so Richardson should once again be the workhorse after seeing 318 touches in his rookie season. He started the year at less than 100 percent, so just being healthy next year and seeing 325 touches should be enough to keep him in the top 10.
10) Frank Gore, San Francisco (214) -
Gore is the top candidate for dropping off the leaderboard. He rushed for 1,214 yards and eight touchdowns last season, but most of the damage was done before Colin Kaepernick took control of the offense in Week 10. Over the final seven games, he rushed for an average of 66 yards and didn't score more than one touchdown in any game. Given Kaepernick's ability to score in the red zone, we fear Gore's fantasy owners are in for a rough ride.

text: Santaniello has completed the accredited staging professional course provided by StagedHomes.com, where she received hands-on instruction and was required to and demonstrated techniques by staging a home that was listed on the market. The softening real estate market is increasing homeowner demands for tools to help bring a profit in the sale of their homes. home staging has become one such tool. By properly cleaning, decluttering and preparing a house before it is listed on the market, homeowners have a better chance of selling their home at or above list price. In a recent study conducted by Stagedhomes.com, of more than 1,000 homes, (55 percent vacant, 45 percent occupied) across the United States and Canada, showed that homes that were prepared for sale by an accredited staging professional were on the market 80 percent less time before selling than non staged homes. The average staged home sold for more dollars depending upon the market, price range of the house and the neighborhood. Averages ran from 7.9 percent more dollars to over 25 percent or more than non-staged homes. The accredited staging professional course was created by Barb Schwarz, creator of home staging, president and CEO of Stagedhomes.com and the International Association of Home Staging Professionals. Schwarz developed the concept of home staging in the early 1970s and has since educated more than one million people on the subject. She is a nationally known and award-winning speaker, author and trainer and has been featured on ABC's "Good Morning America" and "20/20," NBC's "The Today Show," PBS, "The CBS Evening News," "Fox News," as well as many local new programs.

I'd like to buy one but they always look so grungy when I see them on sale. Brown spots, some tears, straggly. Will TLC save them or should I not buy them unless they appear in pristine condition? There appears to be no sign of bugs or infestation.
Thanks! |

I don't believe TLC will cure damage to leaves, stems, etc. Am guessing you'd need to find pristine, perfect leaves, if you need it to look that perfect. |
Miscommunication here. I don't need it to look pristine. I just don't want to buy something that dies x number of weeks from now. I know the damaged foliage won't recover, but what about the plant's future? I just want to know if the plant can thrive despite this. |
- Posted by pirate_girl Zone7 NYC (My Page) on Thu, Aug 19, 10 at 20:51
Not knowing what the cause of the spots is, I couldn't possibly say. Let's see what others think. |
I'd never buy a plant with straggly, spotted, or torn leaves. Ever. Those leaves can never be brought back to an acceptable appearance. Yes, the new growth might be healthy, but frankly....something that has been treated so poorly at the garden center is not a good bargain. I'm all for getting a healthy plant in the first place. |
- Posted by mattkoziol (My Page) on Thu, Aug 19, 10 at 23:15
if at all possible,of course i would rather have the fine,pristine plant,but if you can't find one that is perfect and the only ones that you have seen just have slightly damaged foliage,why not get them?i think that if the roots are good and if the plant is overall intact...get it :) it can always grow new foliage later. |
Thanks mattkoziol, that's the answer I needed (and had hoped for). The plant's not in terrible shape: as you say the foliage is only slightly damaged. Some light trimming will fix the problem. I suspect the plant was overwatered because the soil is extremely damp, though the plant is otherwise firm. |

Remember that Walden's Title IV Code is 025042.
Policy shapes and informs the systems that keep government running. This specialization introduces the process by which policies are created, implemented, and evaluated within the context of the American democratic system. Develop analytical skills to determine the value and effectiveness of proposed policies and investigate the impact of plans on society. Examine strategies for building and assessing policy objectives.
Estimated time to completion is 21 months. Time to completion may vary by student, depending on individual progress and credits transferred, if applicable. For a personalized estimate of your time to completion, call an enrollment advisor at 1-866-492-5336.
Students work toward building a foundation for academic and professional success as a scholar-practitioner and social change agent. They assess the relationship of mission and vision to professional goals and develop a program of study and strategies for online success. Students also explore resources used throughout the program, such as the online Walden University Library. Students engage in course assignments focused on the practical application of professional writing, critical-thinking skills, and the promotion of professional and academic excellence
Students in this course are introduced to contemporary views and theories of maladaptive and criminal behavior. They examine a broad conceptualization of criminal behavior from an interdisciplinary perspective as well as theories and application of criminal profiling. Students also explore specific views of criminal behavior germane to groups, such as psychopaths, serial offenders, and sexually violent predators. At the end of this course, students will have an understanding of the theories and practices that are the foundations of the field of criminology.
Justice is at the heart of the U.S. democratic system, yet opposing viewpoints surrounding and within the system often muddle interpretations of the law and the development of policies to promote and enforce justice. In this course, students examine events that have significantly changed how the legal system interprets the U.S. Constitution, the U.S. Code, and the U.S. Patriot Act, for example, the terrorist acts of September 11, 2001. They learn how social and historical changes have shifted perspectives and sparked debates on expanding the rights of government versus safeguarding personal civil rights and civil liberties. Through discussion with peers, assessment of contemporary articles, and examination of Supreme Course cases, students have the opportunity to reflect on and potentially broaden their own opinions and perspectives on current criminal justice affairs in regard to issues of law enforcement, public perception, policy development, and ethics.
Public and nonprofit leaders require a deep understanding of their roles as directors and managers of diverse and complex organizations. This course examines the distinction between leadership and management, organizational culture, change management, systems theories, and organizational development from a theoretical and applied perspective. Students apply principles to public, private, and nonprofit organizational settings.
Criminal justice encompasses many roles and responsibilities, including responding to victims, punishing or rehabilitating criminals, and developing laws and policies. To carry out these tasks effectively and responsibly, taking into account current trends and ethical considerations, criminal justice professionals need to understand underlying factors, such as the root causes of crime and the impact of crime on communities. In this course, students examine a range of research methodologies, including quantitative and qualitative methods, that professionals use to collect data and analyze trends in criminal justice. They examine models, metrics, and tools used to evaluate criminal justice programs and policies, and they assess the strengths and limitations of research methods. Students also learn about threats to the validity of data and consider the legal and ethical issues associated with research and evaluation methods.
Ethics is a foundational element of leadership. Leaders face increasingly complex social and political challenges as they seek to meet the needs of diverse constituents. This course explores ethics and social justice related to economic disparity, power, and privilege. Students use demographic data and current social trends and themes to understand, analyze, and address ethical and social justice issues that impact service delivery in a global community.
Students in this course are provided with an in-depth analysis of the treatment of women and people of color as professionals, litigants, victims, and offenders in the criminal justice system. Students examine the systemic outcomes of the intersections of race, class, sexual orientation, and gender for these groups as it relates to social justice and social inequality. Through critical examination of readings and data analysis, students learn about the complexity of the historical relationship between these groups and the American criminal justice system and broader social context.
In consideration of modern technological innovation and the spread of knowledge through digital means, the relationship between technology and criminal activity is increasing. In this course, students explore this relationship and gain a comprehensive view of cybercrime, including current trends. They learn how law enforcement agencies use technology to track and apprehend criminals. Through real-world scenarios, students examine legal responses to cybercrime and learn different approaches and techniques for solving cybercrimes and handling related challenges. Students also have the opportunity to gain a comprehensive understanding of building cases and prosecuting crimes through practical exercises in identification, data mining, and the protection and gathering of evidence.
What is the relationship between victims and those who commit crimes against them, and how does the criminal justice system protect and respond to victims of crime? In this course, students have the opportunity to answer such questions through a comprehensive assessment of victimology, a relatively new discipline in the field of criminal justice. Students examine victim patterns and tendencies and learn how victims interact with the police and the legal system. They also examine how factors of class, race, and sexual orientation affect the perception of the victim by different constituents, including the public, the court system, and the media. Students assess and discuss the concept of primary and secondary victims and gain practical insight on a range of services and resources available to all types of victims.
Practitioners in the field of criminal justice must be adept in preparing communications for colleagues, supervisors, and the public. In this course, students have the opportunity to develop the skills needed to produce effective documents that criminal justice professionals use on a daily basis, such as court records, data analysis reports, and program-implementation plans. Student learn how to conduct interviews, gather background information, and use decision-making and critical-thinking skills to create clear, concise communications. They broaden their ability to write for a specific purpose and a highly defined audience as they incorporate criminal justice principles and practices into a variety of communication tools.
This course introduces students to the crafts of policymaking and policy analysis in the U.S. democratic system. It covers the policy process—setting agendas, using policy analysis tools, managing the political process, implementing policy, and providing evaluations and feedback. Students develop skills in policy and economic analyses as well as in determining the political feasibility of proposed policies. Regulation as a policy choice will be discussed. Students completing this course will enhance their abilities to develop alternatives and to assess strategies proposed to achieve certain policy objectives. Policy areas of interest to students form the foundation of this course and may include communications, immigration, social, transportation, housing, labor, arts, and environmental policies.
This course provides an introduction to the tools used by policymakers and policy analysts to evaluate the impact of social programs. Topics include selecting programs to evaluate, crafting program descriptions, identifying stakeholders and their interests, developing logic models, framing evaluation questions, applying utilization-focused evaluation techniques, using quantitative and qualitative tools to complete formative and summative evaluations, and providing evaluation reports and feedback to decision makers. By the end of the course, each student will develop a program evaluation design for a social program.
This course covers microeconomic and macroeconomic models used in policy formulation and how public finance influences policy choices as well as implementation alternatives. Students examine tax policies and tax incentive models, budgeting, public/private models, market influences on policy, the impact of government expenditures on income redistribution, and economic considerations of welfare, food stamps, workers' compensation, and social security. Outsourcing of public programs is also examined.
