The only possible scenario I could think of is Upper Deck "splitting" the rookies in Series I & Series II, thus allowing for a potential scrub to slip through the cracks & into the packs.

With cold nights and warm days here, do tulip bulbs or others need refrigeration? What bulbs can be left in the ground besides iris? |

Tulip, hyacinth, daffodil need to be dug and chilled. Or considered an annual ... my mom just planted more Plants that will do well left in the ground: Narcissus, amaryllis, star of bethlehem, Peruvian squill, jacobean lily |

I know daffodils and tulips get chilled enough just being in the ground in both Boron and Rosamond over the winter (both Sunset Zone 11). Of course, we had them on the northeast corner of the house in Boron and on the north side of the house in Rosamond, so they weren't getting a huge amount of midday winter sun warming up the soil. |

'A Walk Among the Tombstones' Trailer Offers a Grittier Glimpse at Liam Neeson's Particular Set of Skills
Movie News By Rob Hunter on June 4, 2014 | Be the First To CommentLiam Neeson's been on a bit of an action-star tear since striking gold with 2008's Taken, but who can blame him? The guy turns 62 years old in a few days, and if he wants to kick ass and take names a few more times before starring in a Grumpy Old Men remake (with Harrison Ford, obviously) more power to him. Of course, he could stand to be a bit pickier with his choices — for every Taken and Non-Stop we also get a Taken 2 and an Unknown — and it's on that note that we get our first look at the trailer for his latest film. A Walk Among the Tombstones just might be the best entry in Neeson's late career renaissance. It certainly looks the best anyway, and it's also based on a source material of genuinely higher quality than the usual script from Luc Besson's Goofy Action Factory. The film is based on Lawrence Block's novel, one of thirteen with the recurring character of Matt Scudder. Neeson plays the ex-cop turned alcoholic private investigator in director Scott Frank's film, and the result looks pretty damn fantastic. Check out the first trailer for A Walk Among the Tombstones below.
Liam Neeson Still Hates Kidnappers, Will Come to Get Them Again in 'A Walk Among the Tombstones'
Casting Couch By Kate Erbland on May 17, 2012 | Be the First To CommentThere is absolutely no place for kidnappers in the world as long as Liam Neeson is still around. After jump-starting his new career as movie badass for hire with Taken (soon to be followed by Taken 2: More Takener), Neeson has a found a nice little niche for his work when he's not busy being nominated for Oscars and stuff. That niche? Ass-kicking bad dudes (and, on occasion, bad wolves). And, in Neeson's cinematic world, there is no one as bad as kidnappers. Coming out of Cannes is the news that will star in A Walk Among the Tombstones, a film about a guy who (guess what!) goes after some nasty kidnappers. Seriously, kidnappers, put away your duct tape and tiny little magazine letters, it's over for you. Scott Frank (who wrote Out of Sight, Get Shorty, and Minority Report, and made his directing debut with The Lookout) will write and direct the film, which is based on Lawrence Block's "Matt Scudder" book series. There are currently seventeen Scudder books, so if the film is a success, it could swiftly turn into a new franchise. The film is described as such: "Formerly a cop with the NYPD, now an unlicensed private eye and a recovering alcoholic haunted by past mistakes, Matt Scudder is hired to find the kidnapped wife of a drug dealer. He operates just outside the law where the police don't go to track down the kidnappers, who he discovers have been involved in multiple kidnappings and brutal […]

I have a peony that someone gave me in a swap early this spring. I planted it in full sun with rich well drained soil. It has had several buds on it for well over a month now that don't seem to be growing or opening.
Any advice to get this thing blooming? mudyfoot |

- Posted by GardenLove z4-6 (My Page) on Fri, May 13, 05 at 2:58
Maybe it could use some fertilization?...perhaps with a zero nitrogen formula for blooms and root growth, rather then growth of the Foliage(which is what Nitogen would do, sometimes at the expense of blooms)?...Have you had some cold snaps?..maybe thats keeping them at bay...I have a potted Peony that has two buds on it that are not opening either....but its been cold one day, very warm the next, so maybe its confused. I just fed it and will see what happens..take care...GardenLove |
- Posted by shrubs_n_bulbs z8/9 UK (My Page) on Fri, May 13, 05 at 9:10
Sometimes they take a long time to open. In your case, the plant is most likely concentrating on growing roots and you may lose the buds this year. |
- Posted by jenny_in_SE_PA USDA7 Sunset 32 (My Page) on Fri, May 13, 05 at 13:55
There's a very good chance that those buds will never open this year because it was moved and planted at this time of year. But there is an equally good chance that they will bloom next year, assuming they are planted at the proper depth. |

We gave this an eight on our scale of 1 to 10. I used egg substitute to keep the fat down. Quick, easy and good.
My husband and I made this last night. It's a delicious light summer dinner -- and a good way to use some of that ubiquitous zucchini from the garden! This will definitely become a regular menu feature in our household.
Delicious, easy to prepare. Makes a great Sunday brunch with grilled foccacia and fruit. I had leftovers and heated them at work; tasted just about as good as the first day.

Bullying and teen suicide are nothing new, but in recent years we have become increasingly aware of the damage bullying does ― to both children and adults alike ― with what seems to be a sudden spike in teen suicides related to being bulled.
The death of a child, particularly at his or her own hands, is never acceptable. It is a blight on human society that schools do not do more to prevent this, that parents can raise their children to be mean and spiteful to others, and that bullied kids don't have a support system on which they can rely when they are faced with feelings of despair and isolation.
The content of this group will undoubtedly be difficult to deal with. It is painful to see children ostracized from their peers, and made to feel as if they don't matter or don't belong. Of course, bullying is not confined to schools, either. Many adults experience bullying at home or in the workplace as well. All these issues will be explored in this group.

Dammit, where's my box of kleenex? I'll put this on the homepage.
nice effort by 16-year-old singer/songwriter Marcella Fruehan from Dallas TX.
They are Richard! They are the worst of bullies in fact -- I know from experience sadly.
I wish JoePa could come back from the grave and beat the crap out of them.
I specialize in Ornithology in fact. My mom always had parakeets as pets when I was little and that it what started my passion for birds. You can learn much from observing wildlife and how they interact with each other. It was a quiet and calm bird - maybe that is why it was murdered.
Ornithology would be very cool to study. I feed the chickadees and finches and other birds through the winter, and the hummingbirds in the summer. I out out a wren house, and they made a nest in it and used it. That a tiny hummingbird is a distant relative of lumbering dinosaurs is so cool!
Watching the hens in my yard, taught me a lot about bullying. Strangely enough, the top egg layer, a quiet, calm Leghorn, was murdered by one of the secondary egg layers, a Rhode Island Red. I say that because I later saw her standing on one of the shy, timid but larger Black Australorps pecking her feathers out. I am not silly enough to beleive that the Leghorn was being picked on because of her performance, but I've jokes about it. Ultimately that Rhode Island Red turned out to be a serial killer, also murdering 2 more pullets that I added, so I gave her away to my coworker. After naming her for one of my (now former) tormentors at work. I knew what her fate was going to be.... Chickens remind me of little T. rex's in their mannerisms and behavior, or I like to think so since birds are descendants of dinosaurs.
I also have 2 parakeets in my home office. Their constant chatter gives nice background noise while I'm doing homework. But they are very messy. When they hear my birdsong CD, they chirp like crazy.
That is so true. I was ranked in my Ornithology class by the professor (why he chose to rank us I have no idea) I ended up being ranked number one -- anyway the amount of bullying I received after that was phenomenal. I was picked on any chance they got by fellow students. I thought that when I was an adult the bullying would end -- but I was astounded that it just continues. Even at work I would be employee of the month or something like that -- and I would get picked on again. And so -- the bullying continues for me.
HI there Nerdlass! Nice to see you in another group with me!
Bullying does need to be dealt with you are right.

Study: Germans have skeptical view of Israel | ||||||||||||||||||||
BERLIN (AP) -- Seventy years after the liberation of Auschwitz, some 58 percent of Germans say the past should be consigned to history, while three-quarters of Israelis reject the idea of putting the past behind them. Some 48 percent of Germans also say their opinion of today's Israel is poor and the Germans' view of the Israeli government is even worse, with 62 percent expressing a negative opinion. Israelis have a much better view of today's Germany, with 68 percent saying they have a positive image of the country, while only 24 percent have a poor opinion. The figures are the results of a study by the Bertelsmann Foundation released Monday. The foundation questioned 1,000 Germans and 1,001 Israelis for the poll; the margin of error was 3 percent. According to the study, the perception of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict has an increasingly dominant impact on the way Germans view Israel as a whole. Some 35 percent of Germans equate Israeli policies toward the Palestinians with Nazi policies toward the Jews, an increase from 30 percent in 2007, when the foundation conducted a similar study. Nonetheless, a majority of both Israelis and Germans believe that Germany still has a special responsibility toward Israel because of its history. During the Third Reich, the Germans killed 6 million European Jews in the Holocaust, many of them at the Auschwitz death camp. "In Germany the persecution of Jews is viewed as a dark chapter in German history, but not as an essential part of its identity; quite the opposite, Germans would prefer it as an anomaly," the authors of the study wrote in an analysis of their findings. --- Follow Kirsten Grieshaber on Twitter at http://www.twitter.com/kugrieshaber © 2015 The Associated Press.

Cuts still going down at the House of Vikram. Read more »
The previously mentioned cuts have continued to go down this morning. Read more »
A lot of legal issues look like substantive things but are actually things about what institutions can and want to do. Obviously more people want to think about questions like "should the U.S. have universal health insurance?" than about questions like "does the Anti-Injunction Act bar lower federal courts from reviewing the individual mandate until taxes are collected in 2014?," but judges tend to get into the latter question. That's why they're judges. That difference can make judicial decisions sort of hard to interpret.
Today everyone's favorite federal judge, Jed Rakoff, surprised few but pleased many by beating the ever-loving crap out of the SEC's settlement with Citigroup, in which Citi had agreed to pay the SEC $285 million in exchange for the SEC not asking too many questions about its synthetic CDO deals that were maybe not so hot. Here's the gist of it:
Applying these standards to the case in hand, the Court concludes, regretfully, that the proposed Consent Judgment is neither fair, nor reasonable, nor adequate, nor in the public interest. Most fundamentally, this is because it does not provide the Court with a sufficient evidentiary basis to know whether the requested relief is justified under any of these standards. Purely private parties can settle a case without ever agreeing on the facts, for all that is required is that a plaintiff dismiss his complaint. But when a public agency asks a court to become its partner in enforcement by imposing wide-ranging injunctive remedies on a defendant, enforced by the formidable judicial power of contempt, the court, and the public, need some knowledge of what the underlying facts are: for otherwise, the court becomes a mere handmaiden to a settlement privately negotiated on the basis of unknown facts, while the public is deprived of ever knowing the truth in a matter of obvious public importance.
Here, the S.E.C.'s long-standing policy – hallowed by history, but not by reason – of allowing defendants to enter into Consent Judgments without admitting or denying the underlying allegations, deprives the Court of even the most minimal assurance that the substantial injunctive relieve it is being asked to impose has any basis in fact.
Right on! But also maybe just a little disingenuous. Judge Rakoff was not being asked for "substantial injunctive relief," not really. It looks like that on the surface, in the sense that (1) the SEC and Citi worked out a deal where Citi gives the SEC money, promises not to violate the securities laws again, and agrees to do some remedial stuff like telling its salespeople to stop peddling synthetic CDOs structured by the protection buyer without telling anyone because somehow that is still a problem; and in the sense that (2) the SEC was asking Judge Rakoff to enshrine that agreement in an injunction. And then, if Citi didn't keep its agreement – by not doing the remedial things, say, or by violating the securities laws again – the SEC could go back to court and say "hey, Citi violated the injunction" and Judge Rakoff could hold Citi in contempt and fuck. it. up.

Federal Judge Wants To Know Why SEC Is Only Charging Citi 1/5th As Much As It Charged Goldman For Ripping Off CDO Investors
By Matt LevineIf the SEC really wanted to reduce the chances of embarrassing itself, besides better Internet monitoring software it really ought to look into filing securities lawsuits outside of New York. Every bank is incorporated in Delaware and does all of its activities everywhere – surely they could find a CDO investor in California. But the SEC keeps suing in New York, they keep drawing Judge Rakoff in the suspiciously random assignment system, and he always goes and does this:
A federal judge has raised questions about why he should approve the government's $285 million civil settlement with Citigroup, suggesting that he is skeptical of the pact. … He posed nine questions to the parties, including how a fraud of this nature and magnitude could be the result simply of negligence. The judge also asked why the court should approve a settlement in a case in which the S.E.C. alleged a serious fraud but the defendant neither admits nor denies wrongdoing.
They're good questions, including "Why … is the penalty in this case less than one-fifth* of the $535 million penalty assessed in SEC v. Goldman Sachs … ?" And you do get the sense that most other judges wouldn't have bothered with them and would skip straight to "wow, that's a lot of money, willing buyer willing seller, I'll approve the settlement."

So Maybe Citi Created A Mortgage-Backed Security Filled With Loans They Knew Were Going To Fail So That They Could Sell It To A Client Who Wasn't Aware That They Sabotaged It By Intentionally Picking The Misleadingly Rated Loans Most Likely To Be Defaulted Upon, So What?
By Matt LevineCiti today paid out some of its DVA gains to settle SEC charges that it sold investors a CDO-squared that facilitated its own naked CDS purchases on the underlying CDOs, while misleading investors into thinking that an independent collateral manager selected the underlying portfolio. If my grandmother reads Dealbreaker she's now stopped.
Anyway. I'm proud of my time at Goldman, which I thought was a great place filled with smart and ethical people (really) and which also was a market leader in many areas, including paying fines for fraudulent CDO structuring fraud. In that line of business we were first both in time and in market share, settling Abacus for $550mm in July; JPMorgan's $153.6mm Magnetar settlement came a week later and Citi didn't get around to their $285mm entry (and Credit Suisse's $2.5mm addition) until today.
Now, maybe it's just my Goldman bias talking but I never really got the outrage at these things, which always seemed to come from importing an already incorrect understanding of how nonfinancial transactions work into a market-making, two-sided, financial markets context. But reading the Citi CDO documents, which are fascinating, I think makes it a little more comprehensible.
There are five points to which your free-floating rage could maybe attach:

I feel like your average hockey fan doesn't realize how often refs communicate with players, especially at the higher levels. You get to know one another, form relationships (not all good, of course), and try to find a way to work together. Stuff like "Hey buddy, if I see you try to sneak in one more shot I'm calling it, so don't be upset when I do. Ball's in your court" is a nightly occasion.

By significantly scaling up the delivery of life-saving vaccines in developing countries to 90 percent coverage -- including new vaccines to prevent severe diarrhea and pneumonia -- the model suggests that we could prevent the deaths of some 7.6 million children under 5 from 2010-2019. The foundation also estimates that an additional 1.1 million children could be saved with the rapid introduction of a malaria vaccine beginning in 2014, bringing the total number of potential lives saved to 8.7 million.
If additional vaccines are developed and introduced in this decade -- such as for tuberculosis -- even more lives could be saved.
The new funding announced today is in addition to the $4.5 billion that the Gates Foundation has already committed to vaccine research, development and delivery to date across its entire disease portfolio since its inception.

Shares in Japan's Mitsui Engineering & Shipbuilding surged Monday following a report that it had started merger talks with Kawasaki Heavy Industries.
The leading Nikkei business daily said a merger between the shipbuilders would create a firm with almost 2.0 trillion yen ($20 billion) in annual sales, putting it in second spot behind Japan's Mitsubishi Heavy Industries.
Mitsui Engineering's shares surged on the report, closing 13.01 percent higher at 191 yen while Kawasaki Heavy's shares advanced 1.80 percent in morning trade before reversing course and closing out the day 0.90 percent lower at 330 yen.
Earlier Monday, the Tokyo Stock Exchange temporarily suspended trading in the firms "to confirm whether the report is true or not", it said in a statement.
However, both firms dismissed the Nikkei report with Kawasaki saying: "This is not what we have announced and there is no truth to the report."
Minutes later, Mitsui issued a similar statement, saying "this is not what we have announced".
The Nikkei, without citing sources, said the firms will create a new company during the fiscal year ending March 2015 at the earliest in a bid to boost their flagging businesses by cutting procurement costs and boosting research and development.

A new Florida airport that opened 23 May marks a new chapter in the history of Southwest Airlines, which is offering eight nonstop daily flights to the Gulf Coast resort area.
Northwest Florida Beaches International airport, developed through a public/private partnership, landed Southwest service through a marketing agreement with a private entity, which was a first for the carrier.
"We do make use of marketing funds that airports offer but this is the first time we've developed a partnership with a community group," explains a Southwest spokeswoman.
When Southwest initially considered providing service to the Gulf Coast and Panama City-area the economy was faltering, she says. But an agreement with The St. Joe Company, one of the state's largest development and land ownership companies, offered an opportunity that would minimise risk. The St. Joe Company donated 1,620Ha (4,000 acres) within its 30,375Ha (75,000 acre) West Bay Sector Plan for airport construction.
"Southwest's arrival in Northwest Florida is expected to stimulate job growth, economic development and give travellers more of the options they've been seeking," says St. Joe President Britt Green when the agreement was reached in October 2009. "Southwest will help position Northwest Florida as one of America's leading beach destinations."
The new airport is the first international commercial service airport built in the USA in the last 15 years. It replaces the former Panama City-Bay County International airport.
The eight daily nonstop flights to the airport include two from Nashville, Tennessee; two from Houston, Texas; two from Baltimore, Maryland and two from Orlando, Florida. In addition, the carrier is offering connecting service to 58 destinations, including Dallas, Texas and Chicago, Illinois.
"Serving this region has been on our wish list for some time and it's a proud day for Southwest to finally begin flying to the beautiful Emerald Coast," said Southwest President and CEO Gary Kelly at an airport press conference today.
Delta Air Lines is also providing service to the airport, previously explaining it will transfer current regional service from Panama City to the new airport. Delta Connection carrier Atlantic Southeast Airlines operates daily flights from Panama City to Atlanta, while Delta's partner Pinnacle Airlines flies daily to Memphis.
Northwest Florida Beaches International airport is Southwest's seventh destination in Florida. The carrier also serves Tampa, Fort Myers, Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach, Orlando and Jacksonville.

a lesson that took me over two decades to learn and understand.. involves understanding... that there is a proper planting season ... just because you get your grubby little hands on a plant ... does not mean that is the time to plant it ... i doubt i have to explain this on hosta ... if its too cold ... its too cold.. pot it to hold it over ... never plant a tree in leaf.. unless you want all the leave to fall off .. you plant it when its dormant .... even evergreens.. such as conifers ... have a dormant phase ... dont plant a flower in flower .. unless you want to lose the flowers ... etc.. etc.. etc ... so take your delivery ..... pot them ..... and put them in the garage ... and keep in mind.. they are not houseplants ... the garage is usually good enough ... to prevent those temps drops at night .... and if you miss the spring planting season.. hold the stock in pots until the fall planting season ... so it is said.. so it is written ... ken |

Hostas are a little different from other plants, though, in that they grow new roots during the warm part of the season and not in the winter. New roots start forming just after the first leaves unfurl and continue through the summer. If you can give them some regular water to encourage new roots then you can still plant hostas just fine even after they've leafed out. Though there will be some regional differences here, the cool season growers like to be planted in the fall and early spring. Warm season growers such as hostas like to be planted in spring and summer to very early fall. Chris |
I think a whole lot of people are going to disagree with some of your statements. I do think that you have transplanting phobias, lol. In warmer climates, landscape installation projects go on all year round, with the exception of deciduous shade trees, which are best planted in the late fall througb late winter. I've personally overseen summer season projects that include conifers of all kinds, broad leaf evergreens, flowering shrubs, perennials, and annuals. This in the deep south. I've said many times within these forums that I simply don't understand this 'transplant shock ' issue that so many talk about. I can only assume that there must be operator error problems. I have not experienced wilting, defoliation, flower drop, needle drop, yellowing, or plant loss, even when planting in the heat of a South Carolina summer. |
Ken....and others here in the Hosta Forum. I want to apologize sincerely for my previous post. I have started to read that "Most Recent Posts " column with interest and forget where I am sometimes. Ken's comments about transplanting are probably very true when it comes to Hosta. I wouldn't know since I'm totally inexperienced with Hosta! Unlike Ken, who is very knowledgeable about these beautiful plants. I hope that you accept my apology, Ken and hosta lovers. I'll pay more attention to my whereabouts from now on. |
Rhizo- Youzza. I did that once last week, and I still don't know the name of the forum I landed on. Whoa Ken. We plant things in bloom around here year round...shrubs, conifiers, trees bedding plants and other perennials. Everything comes in a container locally. Sometimes I succumb and buy hostas online during the Summer and they arrive bare root fully leafed out. No problem. I do agree that when folks get their hostas, perhaps a bit too early for the strange cold weather you guys are having, they should pot them up and keep them out of the frosty temps. A sunny window? -Babka |

Sticking to just hosta, someone here wrote a nice piece once on transplanting a leafed out hosta. Masking tape, and all that. Now who was that? tj |
Here is a link that might be useful: Oh, yeah. Now I remember.
tj- YES! -Babka |
Yep, I have to depart from Ken on this one - mostly. Most flowers don't drop their petals when they get transplanted. If that were the case, the local retailers wouldn't be in business! The majority of "gardeners" are what I call skimmers, meaning they grab something locally occassionally, usually annuals but sometimes perennials, and plunk them in the ground and expect instant gratification. Of course, with annuals, they usually get it and if the flowers were to drop off of them upon transplant, I know they would be back at the retailer complaining about their plants. I do agree, however, that too early shouldn't go in the ground. If I get a hosta order in the next few days, I will be potting up, not plunking in the ground. However, I've been known to buy perennials this time of year (this practice, is, of course, assuming your ground isn't frozen this time of year!) and plunking them in. If it freezes, I just turn a pot over and cover it. We're talking a handful, at most, not dozens, mind you.They don't drop their flowers, they just wait patiently for good weather to start doing their thing. Funny enough, I just bought an already-emerged potted up Ipheion at the Plant Delights open house a few weeks ago. It was my first local purchase of the season. It cold-snapped in a couple of days of purchase, of course, and since it was still in the pot, I brought it in. Well, it did not like that, it's leaves were half yellow in a couple of days. Cold-snap was over, so I went ahead and planted it out, thinking I might have lost it already. As soon as it went in the ground, it was happy. Leaves greened up immediately and now it is blooming out there and happy. I just covered it when the cold snap returned and it's doing great. So, I think the answer is -- It depends on the plant, the time of year, the location, the previous conditions, etc....LOL....don't think you can blanket categorize this subject. |
I usually do what Ken wrote in his post up front. After a good drink over night after coming out of that tight package, I pot a new hosta. This is especially true getting pieces of large mature hostas from Land of the Giants. If no frost is forecast, I put the pots outside in a shady place and then wait after I have figured out all my planting changes before I plant them in soil. This might take a month, and by that any new hosta is ready to get planted. Smaller bare-root hostas usually enjoy a month in a pot too, also to get used to that new climate. Bernd |

Hmmm, somehow the temptation to get plants in the ground isn't very strong right now. |

yes rhiz.. of course ... but i wasnt concerned with your comments about PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATIONS ... it was moot to my point ... as much as i simplify things for newbies and those with lesser experience [which at times makes your head explode... lol] .. sometimes your stuff is so overly professional .. and i mean that in a good way .... [it makes my head want to explode] ... regardless you are a savant as far as i am concerned... if i can figure out what you are talking about.. lol which.. as is not uncommon... apparently i wasnt clear about my idea ... the simple idea ... is that ... again ... on any plant ... in any region ... there is a 'proper planting time' .. for me in MI .... you dont find some bargain in august.. when its 100 during the day.. 80 at night .. a tree ... and go plant it ... you simply wont be able to give it enough water to sustain it [well you can give it the water.. but can the roots pump it fast enough.. after you disturbed them] ... so why not wait 2 months.. and plant it in fall ... when its in the 70s.. and 50s at night ... so much easier ... buy it when you can get it.. but think about if its really the best time to plant it ... throw the pot in bright shade.. and nurse it along for a month or two ... [never put a black pot in sun.. you will cook the roots] the other end of the spectrum.. with frost/freeze liable plants.. dont rush out to plant them when its really too cold ... pot them.. and leave them in the garage ... warmish during the day ... but tempered night temps to avoid crystallizing the tender leaves ... and the coolness keeps them in slow motion ... as compared to forcing them large in the house .... babs ... i though i used words broad enough... for every region ... i am sure.. even you your eden.. there are better times to do things .... and the point was that simple ... peeps will think about plant culture... sun .. soil.. fert.;.. water .. and all these other variables.. and forget about TIMING ... so i guess the post is all about TIMING ... within the variables of plant culture .... ken ps: and here is the easy way to understand... you mail order from z8 WA ... and the plants are in a certain stage of growth ... and you are in z5 MN ... how about you plant them.. when as of today.. your weather is equivalent.. to the z8 they came from.. which probably means mid may ... but to take them outside.. and put them in 40 degree earth.. that is a recipe for disaster .... so one might think of the potting.. as 'hardening them off' to your conditions ... |
Here is a link that might be useful: rhiz ...you are a scientist.. i am a guy who has dirt under his nails.. and killed a lot of things... lol
I agree with putting hosta orders in a pot for a couple of weeks in the shade to minimize shock. However, I've planted dozens of different variety trees in leaf at all times of the year, and never had an issue....ever. Then again, I also have a ring of 7, 10 year old fully mature hostas around a sugar maple that Ken would yell at me for.... |
Lots of folks disagreed claiming that summer season plantings work just fine. But I didn't see anyone disagree with Ken's first point about planting when the danger of frost is high. For many of you, that means right now as nursery orders of new hosta are arriving. For me, I still have a snowpack of about 60 cm (24 inches) with more that fell overnight. Spring breakup will come soon but it isn't here yet! And I have never planted new hostas before May 20 as Ken's advice is valid if you want hostas to survive. |

thank you dougald ... someone finally focused on the fact that its very early spring [heck.. its still winter in MI] ... and that we are in the HOSTA FORUM... discussing HOSTA!!!!! .. not my other examples ... if you put hosta that have broken dormancy.. in icy cold soil .. i give them a 50/50 shot at survival ... even on the driveway ... there are very experienced peeps that do things all year long.. that they are not supposed to ... pushing the envelope ... having killed millions of plants.. learning all the trick .... but usually i am trying to enable newbies ... and they tend toward getting all worried.. and giving up .. if they lose a plant or two ... so it seemed like a pretty easy lesson for a newbie... one of the factors of succeeding easily ... is to think about the TIMING of the planting .. and august is not easy .... junkie.. i have no clue what my other post has to do with this????? ... i was addressing the arrival of plants.. in the frozen midwest.. from naylor creek/greenhouse .... ===>>>> today ... would you run outside and plant them immediately ???? ... i know you are messin with me ... lol ... and if any of you.. want to order fully leafed out ... BARE ROOT TREES ... just like the hosta we are seeing in other posts ... .. for planting in august.. let me know how that all works out for you ... all i will say ... is that i told you so.. and you should have considered your timing .... and to talk to mic.. because he does it all the time ... ken |

Ken, this is what you said above... "so take your delivery ..... pot them ..... and put them in the garage ... and keep in mind.. they are not houseplants ... the garage is usually good enough ... to prevent those temps drops at night .... and if you miss the spring planting season.. hold the stock in pots until the fall planting season ... " There is no reason to hold off until the "fall planting season" That is what your other post has to do with this...;-) tj |
aaeeeeeiiiiiii ... my head just 'sploded ... why can't we all just get along? i work so hard to hibernate a cupple months, and come back to ... this? crikey ... on the driveway! rotflmao ... with tape dave |
Life would be SO boring if we all agreed on everything. The cold weather folks have all been cooped up way too long this year, and it shows. ;-) -Babka |
Yes, Babka, your life is so much better living in California, see your hostas and your garden so much earlier, and not having to look at all that snow we have in the north, and still have it right now, but melting in 55 degrees days now. Bernd |

Hey hey, good to see Rhizo drop in to see how the other half lives. I mean, there is a nursery selling HOSTA in Leeds AL, and it is listed in the Hosta Keeper 2014, and I almost visited there the other day. I bet Rhizo could drop in there and get a good look at some huge hosta. Miss Judy would be pleased to show him/her around. And, Rhizo, if you are down Mobile way, you might like to see how my (500 or so) hosta are doing between late April and early July, too hot after that for prime plants, but they hang in there until October in most cases. All they really need is 40 days below 40 degrees and they are good to go. If you keep the moisture under control. |

NEW YORK (CNN/Money) – The Bush administration is said to be considering a change in its proposal for individual Social Security accounts that would make them more attractive to workers, according to a report published Thursday.
Administration officials may consider proposing a lower offset rate, according to an interview in the Wall Street Journal with Allan Hubbard, the director of the National Economic Council and assistant to the president for economic policy.
The offset formula determines the amount by which a worker's traditional defined benefits would be reduced if he chooses to divert a portion of his payroll taxes into an individual investment account. (Under Bush's proposal, contributing to individual accounts would be voluntary.)
A lower offset rate increases the chances that workers with accounts would fare better than if they stayed exclusively with the traditional system.
In February, the White House proposed an offset formula that would reduce benefits by an amount tied to a worker's account contributions plus a rate of return equal to that of the Treasury bond, currently estimated at 3 percent.
So a worker would need to earn more than 3 percent a year above inflation (assumed to be 3 percent) and expenses (estimated by the White House to be 0.3 percent) to come out ahead of just staying in the traditional system.
That means his investment account would need to earn more than 6.3 percent, not adjusted for inflation.
That's not an impossible hurdle, but it's also not an easy one.
Some market observers expect stocks and bonds to return less than their historical averages in the coming decades. The Journal noted that Treasury bonds are expected to return roughly 2 percent and stocks a few percentage points more.
Hubbard told the Journal that 3 percent was chosen because that is what actuaries estimate will be the government's cost of long-term borrowing, making the accounts "fiscally neutral."
"One could argue 2 percent is more appropriate. But that actually changes over time, it's not fixed," Hubbard said. "If there's a consensus [that] it's appropriate that it is a lower rate, obviously we'd be open-minded to that."
A former administration official told the paper that the White House has discussed an offset rate between 2 percent and 3 percent, with particular focus on a rate of 2.7 percent.
Lowering the offset rate would improve worker's chances of doing better with an individual account. But it may increase the costs of creating the accounts in the first place.
Those costs have been a huge bone of contention with critics of the president's guidelines.

Tiger Woods' ex Elin Nordegren is single again.
According to People magazine, she broke off her relationship with financier Jamie Dingman in January.
"She says Jamie's a great guy — and they're still friends — but I think it was just too early [after the divorce] for her to get serious with anyone," a friend of Nordegren told the magazine.
The pair were first linked last summer. Dingman, the son of billionaire Michael Dingman, president of international investments firm Shipston Group Ltd., manages his father's business in China. He and Nordegren's pro-golfer ex-husband reportedly share something in common — a fling with former nightlife hostess Rachel Uchitel.
Nordegren lives with her two children in North Palm Beach, Fla., and is a part-time college student working on her psychology degree.

Here's something to get your teeth into. Over at LaptopMag, a whole host of Androids have been put through their paces in a grueling battery life endurance test. The goal was to keep the phones' screens on while doing a moderate amount of processing, namely cyclically browsing a collection of web pages. Despite the supposed power savings afforded by AMOLED screens, the phones employing that screen technology fell quite a ways behind in comparison to the traditional LCD phones.
Why is that? AMOLED is supposed to only use up power on non-black pixels, right? Well, as LaptopMag points out, the majority of webpages are actually dark text on a light background, a scenario in which AMOLED actually uses more power than an equivalent backlit LCD.

The carpenter accidentally used our DW cabinet panel as a decorative end panel on the mudroom cabinet. It's a fantastic free upgrade on the mudroom, but now it's going to be 10 days until a replacement door panel arrives. I can't tell if my problem is just because of the missing panel or if something else needs adjusted. My door won't stay open! Is there a spring that needs adjusted or will this problem solve itself with the addition of the panel?
Thanks! |

It won't stay open without the panel attached. It needs the weight to counter balance the spring. Some folks put a piece of plywood on the door temporarily to make up for the weight until the real panel can be installed. |

What Life Might Be Like When Texting is Allowed in Movie Theaters
Features By FSR Staff on May 1, 2012 | Comments (2)Earlier this week, Deadline Wherever reported that during a panel at CinemaCon, exhibitors discussed the option of allowing patrons to text during films. It was pitched as an attempt to attract younger audiences to the theaters, even though it doesn't actually address the reason (price of films, quality of the home video experience and rampant online piracy) why teens and college students don't go to the movies as much as they did in the 70s and 80s. At Film School Rejects, we support a staunch no-texting policy (and no tweeting, Facebooking, web surfing, Wikipediaing, playing of Angry Birds or Fruit Ninja) at all theaters. However, instead of pointing out the fallacies of this idiotic suggestion, we're taking a look into the future. Here is a possible timeline of what might happen were texting allowed in movie theaters. Gird your loins and enjoy this cautionary tale from Cole Abaius and Kevin Carr.
Sony Pictures Passes the Price of 3D Glasses Onto the Consumer
Movie News By Nathan Adams on September 28, 2011 | Comments (6)As the number of 3D movies has ramped up over the past few years, have you ever had the feeling that you were getting away with something by only paying three or four dollars more for a 3D movie? Yeah, me either. Adding on about a third of the price of a regular ticket seems more than fair for just adding one more dimension, but the studios' bottom line doesn't agree. You see, it costs a movie studio an upwards of $10m to furnish theaters with the 3D glasses they need for a big tentpole 3D release, and with box office sales of 3D movies dropping like stones over the past several months, they're starting to think that $10m isn't worth it in the long run. So what are they going to do about it? Stop making 3D movies because the cost of production isn't meeting the demand for the product? No, stupid! They're going to raise the price of a 3D ticket even further so that we can pay for our own glasses. Or at least, this is the step that Sony Pictures is taking. In a letter sent out to exhibitors, the studio said they will no longer be covering the cost of the glasses for their upcoming 3D films like Men in Black III and The Amazing Spider-Man, and that theaters would have to take it upon themselves to sell glasses to the consumer. This will probably hash out to about another 50 cents a ticket, unless theater owners […]
Before you go getting some silly idea like me believing in some silly idea like love, let me clear this up: this isn't about the love between a man and a woman, a man and a fine cigar, and a fat kid and his chocolate cake. That'd be too easy. The price of those are heartbreak, oral cancer, and diabetes. No, this is about a love we all share, everyone of us reading this site and writing for it. This is about a love of cinema and, tragically, the extreme cost of it. Going to the theater is a great experience. Unless you're a millionaire, the theater offers a gigantic screen, booming sound, and stadium seating. Watching Transformers on the big screen knocks the robotic pants off of watching it at home no matter how big your Samsung is. All of that is great – but is it worth the astronomical price?
The Pros and Cons of a Flexible Movie Ticket Pricing System
Features By Scott Beggs on March 21, 2011 | Comments (6)Over the weekend, discounted tickets through Groupon helped The Lincoln Lawyer's box office numbers, which once again draws the question of ticket prices back into the forefront. It's no secret that ticket prices are a cause for concern for both movie fans (like us) who feel hoodwinked by inflated prices of admission and movie studios who, despite record-breaking years recently, still want to make more money. Since lowering prices wholesale is apparently not an option, another solution has to be found, and Steve Zeitchik over at the LA Times gives about as smart and in-depth an exploration of flexible ticket pricing as you could hope for. Just like hotels and airfare, the movies that aren't popular become cheaper while the huge hype of blockbusters comes with a bigger price tag. While a movie like Limitless starts to sell out, the prices go up, but as ticket sales for Paul stay low, the price drops. It's almost as simple as that.
Coming to a Movie Theater Near You: Higher Ticket Prices
Movie News By Brian C. Gibson on February 4, 2010 | Comments (12)This is just a letter to all of those people out there that think life should be fair and easy. Life is a bit different than that, especially since James Cameron decided to take us to Pandora.
