Remembering June 6, 1944: The 10 Best D-Day Related Movies and Documentariesby Alex Diaz-GranadosJun 6, 2006
Popular Products in Movies
The Bottom Line Considering how fateful D-Day was in shaping our current world, these 10 films help us remember the sacrifices made on "the longest day."
On June 6, 1944, nearly five years after Nazi Germany invaded Poland and kicked off the European phase of World War II, 5,000 Allied ships, supported by 10,000 planes and heralded by a fierce (but somewhat ineffective) bombardment, began landing the first waves of nearly 200,000 American, British, Canadian, and Free French forces on five invasion beaches on the Normandy coast. From midnight to 2359 Hours on what German Field Marshal Erwin Rommel famously labeled "the longest day," at least 3,000 Allied paratroopers, soldiers, sailors, airmen, and Coast Guard personnel lost their lives and several thousand more wounded, but Adolf Hitler's forces lost many troops and vehicles on D-Day. More importantly, Hitler's vaunted Atlantic Wall had been cracked on Utah, Omaha, Juno, Gold, and Sword Beaches, and General Dwight D. Eisenhower's Allied Expeditionary Force had established a fifty mile-wide beachhead in northern France. It would take 11 months of hard campaigning and many battles to finally overrun the Nazis' Third Reich, but the battle of Normandy basically doomed Hitler and his regime to utter and total defeat. The battle of Normandy and particularly the D-Day landings have, naturally, been the subject of many films since the 1940s. Some, of course, have been documentaries cobbled together from newsreel and official military cinematographers such as Lt. Commander John Ford and Lt. Col. Darryl Zanuck; other movies have been either adaptations of non-fiction books by Cornelius Ryan and other popular historians or fictitious yet realistic recreations of the landings and their aftermath by Samuel Fuller and Steven Spielberg. As the 62nd anniversary of the greatest amphibious operation ever mounted approaches, here's a list of the 10 Best Movies about "the longest day" in history. I've divided them into two categories, Hollywood Films About D-Day and Documentaries About D-Day. Hollywood Films About D-Day: 1. The Longest Day (1962): Darryl F. Zanuck's ambitious and expensive recreation of the D-Day landings on the beaches of Normandy, is one of the best -- if somewhat flawed -- war films ever made. Boasting an all-star cast of 41 "A-List" (for 1962, that is) actors from four countries and filmed in various locations around France (Corsica doubling for most of the five invasion beaches on northern France) and made with the assistance of NATO's armed forces, The Longest Day was, for over 30 years, the most expensive movie ever shot in black and white. It's the only major movie to attempt to convey the scope and drama of the D-Day landings from a multinational viewpoint. 2. Saving Private Ryan (1998): If 1993's Schindler's List was director Steven Spielberg's soul-searching and ultimately redemptive examination of why we fought the war (the movie graphically shows the Third Reich's true nature as an evil regime), then 1998's Saving Private Ryan is the emotional bookend that depicts the sacrifices made by citizen-soldiers who put their lives on hold -- and often lost them -- to save the world from becoming a charnel house ruled by Adolf Hitler and his Axis partners. It is a powerful if viscerally graphic film that has, in retrospect, reawakened our nation's interest in World War II and made us realize, however belatedly, how much we owe to the men and women of the rapidly dwindling "Greatest Generation." Based loosely on the real story of the Niland brothers, Saving Private Ryan tells the tale of an eight-man squad of U.S. Army Rangers detailed to retrieve Pvt. James Ryan from Normandy after the death of his three brothers. Featuring the most intense and realistic cinematic depiction of the D-Day invasion, Spielberg's film is certainly far more violent and bloody than its closest cinematic cousin, Darryl Zanuck's The Longest Day. 3. The Big Red One (1980): Although Sam Fullers semi-autobiographical film covers more of World War II than just the Normandy invasion, The Big Red One does have a D-Day invasion sequence that, made with a smaller budget and showing only a tiny sliver of Omaha Beach, still captures the emotional and physical horrors faced by the young G.I.s of the 1st Infantry Division as they hit the beaches under heavy German fire. Starring Lee Marvin, Mark Hamill, Robert Carradine, and Bobby Di Cicco, this film wasnt a big hit, but it is perhaps one of the most honest war movies ever made. 4. D-Day: The Sixth of June (1956): Robert Taylor, Dana Wynter, and D-Day veteran Richard Todd star in this somewhat melodramatic romance set mostly in pre-D-Day Britain during the build-up to the Normandy invasion. Taylor plays a married U.S. Army colonel whos in love with Valerie Russell (Wynter), whos also involved with Lt. Col. John Wynter (Todd). The film is essentially an extended flashback as the two officers head to the Normandy beaches and exchange tales about the woman they are unwittingly both in love with. 5. The Americanization of Emily (1964): One of the strangest films loosely tied to the Normandy invasion, this dark comedy, written by Paddy Chayefsky and directed by Arthur Hiller, is a combination of bittersweet romance and a satire about war, inter-service rivalry, and public relations in general. Starring James Garner, Julie Andrews, and Melvyn Douglas, its D-Day connection comes from an admirals nutty idea, hatched to upstage the Army, of having the first American fatal casualty on Omaha Beach be a Navy man. 6. Ike: Countdown to D-Day (2004): Tom Selleck stars as Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower in this original made-for-cable movie that dramatizes the Allied Supreme Commanders tension-filled life during the preparations for D-Day. Co-starring Gerald McRaney as Lt. Gen. George S. Patton, Jr., this modestly budgeted film is more of a character study of a man under intense pressure as the fate of the free world rides on his every command decision. Documentaries About D-Day 7. D-Day: The Total Story (1994) Directed by Robert Lihani and produced by prolific documentary-makers Craig Haffner and Donna Lusitana, this six-hour long presentation covers every possible aspect of the Normandy landings, from the Germans attempts to build an impregnable Atlantic Wall that was to stretch from Norway to the Franco-Spanish border, the Allies meticulous planning and buildup, the various personalities (Eisenhower, Rommel, Montgomery) involved, and the complicated series of events that took place starting with the night-time airborne assault and climaxing with the battle for the beaches. Hosted by Gerald McRaney, D-Day: The Total Story follows the typical documentary format, combining wartime footage with contemporary interviews with historians and veterans of all sides. 8. Morning: Episode 17, The World at War (1974): Airing nearly 30 years after D-Day, this episode of the British TV docu-series covers the major aspects of not only the initial landings on the five invasion beaches but also the ensuing campaign that culminated in the liberation of Paris on August 25, 1944. 9. D-Day: Vol. 15, Victory at Sea (1952): The series' 15th episode, D-Day, covers the by-now familiar story of the Allied landings on the coast of Normandy on June 6, 1944; it is short (less than 30 minutes long) and skips over then-classified material on Operation Fortitude, but its still worth watching as a quick introduction to the topic. Although the narration seems a bit over-the-top now, Richard Rodgers score is still moving and powerful. 10. George Stevens: D-Day to Berlin (1995): Released to coincide with the 50th Anniversary of Victory in Europe Day, this is a compilation of Hollywood director George Stevens full color footage of the Allied campaign in Western Europe, starting on D-Day itself. Worth watching, especially since color footage from WWII is rare. |

St. Carmen Comments
According to my resources, the name Carmen is a derivation of Carmel which is one of the titles given to Our Blessed Mother, namely, Our Lady of Mount Carmel. This is the patronal feast of the Carmelites. The Order of Carmelites takes its name from Mount Carmel, which was the first place dedicated to the Blessed Virgin and where a chapel was erected in her honor before her Assumption into Heaven. July 16 is also the feast of the "Scapular ... Continue Reading

Every year around All Saints Day I spend hours looking up Patron saints for the children in my class who never realized they even had one! When I can't find a name(which happens often in a culture where names have changed quite alot in a thousand years or so!)it's time to start looking for derivitives and
meanings to get the closest name I can find. In The Dictionary of Patron Saints Names(Sheehan), I found that Carmen in Middle Latin means "crimson red". This leads to a dozen Sts. Rufinus. Pick one!What do you do if your name is Michael- there are many spelled a little differently and you have to pick from several eventually! Carmen also means "song" in Latin. If there is a stronger association there follow the Sts it leads to such as Bl. Peter the Singer, St Joseph the Hymn writer or St Clement the Hymnographer. Carmen can also mean "from the Garden" and will also lead to Adam and Eve the patrons of the gardens. Can you find a Patron Saint that speaks to you from that list? -

For me, wearing the scapular is a way to stay connected to our Blessed Mother. I have received comfort when I despair and blessings I don't deserve.I know my heavenly Mother watches out for me and protects my family. We must pray for all those who do not know our Lord or have turned away from the Faith that through our Blessed Mother of God who loves us so dearly that we may be brought closer to Her Son Jesus Christ. Hail Holy Queen!

'The Love Guru' Goes the Extra Mile to Make Us Laugh, But Also Feel Uncomfortable

Speedway workers oiled and rolled the track surface until the gates opened to the public. Fifteen to twenty thousand spectators poured in, each paying $1 for a grandstand seat or 50 cents to sit in the first- and second-turn bleachers.
Impatient drivers broke formation during the first three rolling starts, forcing flagman Fred Wagner to halt the field and begin all races from a standing start. Five- and ten-mile event victors were Louis Schwitzer in a Stoddard-Dayton, Louis Chevrolet in a Buick, Wilfred Bourque in a Knox, and Ray Harroun in a Marmon.
Halfway through the first day's 250-mile main event, race leader Chevrolet was temporarily blinded when a stone smashed his goggles. Then Bourque suffered a (suspected) rear-axle failure. His Knox flipped end-for-end on the front straight before crashing into a fence post. Bourque and riding mechanic Harry Holcomb both died at the scene. Burman's Buick led the remaining field to the finish.
In spite of the four safe finishes and two world speed records achieved on Indy's first day of car racing, AAA sanctioning officials debated canceling the remainder of the schedule. Only after Fisher promised that workers would repair the ravaged track overnight were officials convinced that the show should go on.
More than 20,000 spectators enjoyed the second day's eight events, which were completed without incident. Drivers behaved, records were broken, and the track surface held up reasonably well.
Thirty-five thousand spectators showed up for Indy's third day of speed trials and races in spite of hot, humid weather. Oldfield wowed the fans by boosting the world kilometer record to 85 mph in his Benz. The cigar-chomping celebrity also won the day's fourth event with ease.
Nineteen racers took the flag in the grand finale, a 300-mile run for the $10,000 Wheeler-Schebler trophy. During the first 100 miles of dusty competition, six cars dropped out. At 175 miles, the right front tire blew on Charlie Merz's car. His out-of-control National mowed down five south-end fence posts, toppled spectators like bowling pins, and achieved a reported 50-foot altitude. The lucky Merz sustained only minor injuries, but two spectators and his mechanic, Claude Kellum, perished.
Ten laps later, a Marmon driven by Bruce Keen spun into a bridge support after hitting a pothole. Flagman Wagner promptly halted the race with 94 of the planned 120 laps completed. Since the event ended early, the remaining cars received engraved certificates instead of trophies.
The following day, newspapers railed against the carnage. A Detroit News editorial deemed racing "more brutal than bull fighting, gladiatorial combats, or prize fighting." The AAA moved to boycott future Indianapolis events unless Speedway management addressed safety shortcomings.

"This recipe was a HUGE hit! I have a very picky fiance and he went crazy over it. I have never cooked with mascarpone so after reading reviews I went with cream cheese instead. To be honest I was nervous but I was so pleased with the result! I also served with linguine instead of a potato. This will be a weekly dish!"""

Google Hits More Privacy Speedbumps
by Wendy Davis on Feb 26, 7:00 PM
Google's privacy woes in Europe just keep mounting. Earlier this week, three company executives were convicted of criminally violating a disabled teen's privacy based on a YouTube clip uploaded by high school students. Now, it's come to light that privacy officials with the E.U. are demanding that Google destroy photos for Street View within six months.

by Wendy Davis on Feb 25, 6:30 PM
Web users who don't want to be tracked via standard HTML cookies can opt out in various ways, including rejecting cookies at the browser level or regularly deleting cookies. But even the most tech-savvy users might be stymied by some of the newer, harder-to-control tracking technologies.

by Wendy Davis on Feb 23, 5:15 PM
Broadband advocates say new FCC research lends support to their calls for new policies that would result in more competition and, presumably, lower prices. Among the report's findings: 36% of those who lack broadband say it's too expensive.

Peer-To-Peer Networks Don't Breach Privacy, Users Do
by Wendy Davis on Feb 22, 7:45 PM
Sounding an alarmist note about peer-to-peer networks, the Federal Trade Commission said today it has informed more than 100 schools, business and local governments that sensitive data about their customers and employees has landed on file-sharing networks. Long associated with copyright infringement, peer-to-peer networks already have an image problem. But, while there's no question that some people have used peer-to-peer networks to share copyrighted files, or that some people have inadvertently shared private documents via such networks, vilifying the technology itself won't solve either problem.

File-Sharer Makes Last Ditch Plea To Slash $675,000 Damages Award
by Wendy Davis on Feb 19, 4:45 PM
Boston grad student Joel Tenenbaum is arguing in new legal papers that the $675,000 damage award against him for sharing 30 tracks on Kazaa should be reduced because the most he could have cost the record labels totaled $21, or 70% of the 99-cent purchase price on iTunes.

Condé Nast Takes On 'Gourmet' Writer For Posting Articles He Wrote
by Wendy Davis on Feb 16, 6:30 PM
Last November, when freelance food journalist Barry Estabrook learned that Condé Nast was shuttering
, he worried for the fate of features he had authored for the magazine. So Estabrook launched his own blog, Politics of the Plate, and posted links to PDFs he had created of those pieces. "I certainly wasn't reducing their value to Condé Nast," he says. "Nor was I making any money off of them." Nonetheless, Condé Nast took issue with the move, according to Estabrook.

Google To Enter ISP Space: Some Cheer, But Privacy Pitfalls Possible
by Wendy Davis on Feb 10, 6:00 PM
In the net neutrality debate, telecoms have been pitted against content companies like Google ever since former AT&T CEO Ed Whitacre complained that the search giant was getting a "free ride" on the telecom's pipes. But now Google is taking Internet access issues into its own hands. The company said today that it plans to build high-speed, fiber-to-the-home broadband networks that will deliver speeds of 1 Gbps -- more than 250 times the average U.S. broadband speed of 3.9 Mbps, according to Akamai.

Seems Jay has a penchant for yammering endlessly about trivia. Is it possible to spend more time on a haircut in an article pretending to be a critique on position?
While I may have missed it, seems Jay has been withholding his criticism of Mitt's spa and beauty ( ! ) services.
The canard, "His mistake is in failing to understand that poverty is not an issue of systemic unfairness or neglect." indicates that Jay is blissfully unaware that the process of eliminating the middle class has been an objective of this administration. It's the system itself that is creating a permanent underclass, by rewarding corporations to move jobs off shore.
Apparently, his assertion that "The basic causes of poverty in our affluence-generating, free enterprise economy are cultural, such as unwed motherhood.", aside from being dead wrong, clearly implies that there are no males in poverty.
Jay, here's something for you to consider: It's lack of jobs and income that's responsible for poverty.
Jay steps off the cliff when he opines that "The increases in poverty are a result of the legal and illegal immigration of people without the tools that allow immediate entrance into a middle class that happens to be doing better than anytime in history, despite ever-present difficulties." Once more, Jay is oblivious to the fact that the middle class is shrinking, and working longer hours to maintain their position.
Does "It's the economy, Stupid!" ring ANY bells?
Where did you find this guy?

Bhoys still keen on Icelander
The 19-year-old has made a huge impact with the Sky Blues this season after switching from AZ Alkmaar last summer. A host of clubs are understood to be checking on him and Celtic are believed to have been keeping tabs on him for a number of months. Gunnarsson is currently in Scotland with the rest of the Iceland squad as they prepare for the World Cup qualifier at Hampden on Wednesday. And the Icelandic youngster insists that the Scottish giants are still keen on him. "I haven't heard anything more about Celtic other than the fact they are still watching me at Coventry. Celtic are a big team with a fantastic support and are regularly in the Champions League," Gunarsson told the Daily Record. "That makes them an attractive proposition for any player. I'm young and have plenty of time to think about it. "I hope to play at Hampden and if I play well I don't think that would do my chances of moving to Celtic any harm. "I believe our style of football is suited to playing Scotland. "Iceland have quite a few players now who play in the UK so of course that will help us in Glasgow on Wednesday."

These vulgaris really need to get into the ground ASAP as I've stored them all winter. I've decided as cool as they are they just don't fit in with the look I have going on in the yard. I also have hardy cyclamen bulbs that are taking over the planet over here, a lovely winter plant. They will go dormant soon but still have their leaves. The flowers are pinkish purple (vary a bit) with about 1% white, and I usually send quite a few with any trade. I messaged with a few people about these waiting on spring for trades but have lost track (just message me....I have plenty lol). Im looking for summer perennials, anything low growing, or part shade would be nice, but I'm open. I like loud bright flowers :) I particularly need flowering plants for pots on my 3 hour sun back patio (begonia?). Please ignore my trade list, I will try to update it, but I found a lot of my wanted plant wants, luckily :) |

I would love some cyclamen, but not sure if I have anything you would be interested in. I will be dividing a few named daffs later this spring. I could send starts of epimedium, solomon's seal, hardy geranium biocovo. I have lots of daylilies & some peony seedings. Or check my trade list. |
I'd like some cyclamen too. Is it the spring or fall blooming type.? If you like bright colors, I have geranium endresii 'wargrave pink' or stachys hummelo that are low. The salvia pratensis send up 18" spires of deep blue flowers or check my list. |

How to Become a Counselor
Counselors help people make the most of their lives in the face of unique challenges and adversity. They develop relationships with their clients, often in a very personal way, and recommend problem-solving approaches and relationship-building techniques. Counseling is a dynamic profession that offers the rare opportunity to do work of profound significance on a daily basis.
Counselors specialize in a variety of subjects: marriage and family, addictions, school guidance, mental health, community health and nutrition, or career. They may also specialize in rehabilitation, physical and mental disabilities, or crisis counseling with people in times of serious need or injury. The counseling field is growing, yielding many opportunities to fine-tune a specialty and establish a career that is truly rewarding.
Work Environment
Counselors are employed at all levels of government and private industry, or have their own practice. They often provide counseling services to government and private business or directly interact with clients. Some counselors work through community clinics or hospitals while others choose to work at religious institutions and schools.
Most counselors have a bachelor's or master's degree, but an associate's degree is a great place to begin a counseling career, particularly if a person wants to maintain flexibility in his specific counseling path. In general, an associate's degree is required for addiction counseling, career counseling and life coaching. An associate's degree also introduces a person to the wide variety of counseling career choices.
After an associate's degree, an individual interested in, for example, marriage and family counseling, personal growth counseling, psychotherapy, some types of addiction counseling or crisis counseling needs to obtain a bachelor's degree or even a master's degree. Other counseling careers, such as psychoanalysis and some social work, require a PhD or other doctorate degree.
A more direct path to counseling is to obtain a bachelor's degree in counseling, psychology or social work, and then narrow down to a specialization through a master's degree program. If an individual knows which specialty he or she is most interested in, this is the fastest path. Most colleges and universities have counseling departments, and one of the best ways to understand the field is to speak to a college counselor about the options available.
Beyond the classroom training, most counseling programs have a mentoring aspect as well. This constitutes a period of time when an experienced counselor oversees students in all aspects of counseling, ensuring that the students gain the necessary skills. Depending on the state, certification and licensure may require varying degrees of time in a mentorship program. Most state licensing boards have websites where more information on the specifics may be found.
Licensing and/or Certification
Positions where an associate's degree is sufficient generally do not require licensing. Some kind of certification may be required, depending on the state in which the counselor is employed. Without a doubt, however, obtaining certification greatly increases the chances of employment. The National Board for Certified Counselors (NBCC) awards general certifications to counselors and are given after passing a national examination. The examination is typically a part of state licensing procedures. You can find more information about the exam here. The NBCC also awards specialty certifications in Mental Health (CCNHC), School Counseling (NCSC) and a certification as a Master Addictions Counselor (MAC).
Necessary Skills and Qualities
Counselors are expected to maintain high ethical standards, keeping their clients' personal information confidential. A successful counselor needs highly developed communication skills, both written and oral. Counselors also need to maintain professional boundaries, train in critical thinking skills, be detail oriented, and maintain accurate records. They need to show sympathy and empathy while at the same time maintaining professional balance and the ability to make critical, sometimes life-changing suggestions to their clients.
Opportunities for Advancement
A counselor can advance from an associate's degree all the way to a PhD or other doctorate in the counseling field. They have the option to become educators who teach future counselors. Others choose to conduct research in effective counseling techniques. A counselor might also enter management or supervisory positions, overseeing the training and work of other counselors.
If you would like to gain the necessary education to become a counselor, we highly recommend that you check out our free School Finder Tool located HERE.
Salaries often depend on the educational level achieved, the counseling focus and the setting in which they are employed, which may be in an organization or a private practice. In May 2013, salaries for counselors ranged from $21,170 to $86,870, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The median salaries of various types of counselor are as follows.
- Couples counselors: $48,160
- Mental health counselors: $40,580
- Rehabilitation counselors: $34,230
- School and career counselors: $53,600
- Substance abuse counselors: $38,620
An addictions counselor with an associate's degree generally earns less than school and career counselors with a master's degree. Rehabilitation counselors, however, tend to earn lower salaries despite earning a master's degree.
Job Outlook
Overall, the counseling field is growing. In addictions counseling, the Bureau of Labor Statistics expects a 31% increase from 2012 to 2022. Mental health counselors will see a 29% increase. Marriage and family counselors' jobs will grow by 31%. The field of school and career counseling expects a slower increase, but will still grow by 12%, which is a pace similar to average job growth. Rehabilitation counselors can expect robust growth of 20%.

If you're using containers, I'd really be interested in how you maintain your watering routine. At first it wasn't a problem for me when the peppers were small, but now that they've grown - even the 5gal buckets are getting dry within a few days. As the days get warmer, I am well aware that this will become worse. As of now I mix up 6 quarts for each bucket (w fert, cal, mag, and every so often BT), and water all plants individually. This has become quite the undertaking as of lately though. It started as once every 2 weeks, then down to once a week, and now they need water every 4 days or so. I've cut down drastically on all the amendments to the waterings - as for the added frequency. Pretty soon I can see these things needing water nearly every day though with their size (in combination with the heat). Adding plain hose water isn't really the problem, it's the time consuming part of concocting the perfect cocktail for them. I've pondered the idea of the hose feeding system (ie MG feeder ) but worried of inconsistencies. Really just wondering how y'all go about the task, I could sure use some new ideas. Jay |

fellow floridian here. I notice my plants wilt a lot during the day. if I used that as my guage I'd be watering every day. if they're still wilted when the sun goes down I water. I got a hose attachment at lowes that I use to give a weak feeding with every watering. I mix my MG all purpose and my witches brew in there ahead of time. I could probably make the mix in the can much stronger and have it last longer, but the easier way to avoid inconsistency in the mixer seems to be to put it at a higher setting. I end up having to remake it every other watering (I have 50+ plants, 15 of which are in 5 gal buckets) but that's better than mixing and filling up 3-5 watering cans each time you wanna give them a half dose feeding. I'm still kind of a noob (2nd year) but I'm a fellow florida grower so I figured I'd weigh in. |

I've grown a few peppers in containers, but mostly bougainvillea, hibiscus, basil, tomatoes, and others, and I find that a drip system used in conjunction with time release fertilizer works very well. Get an Orbit hose-end drip timer and a brass vacuum breaker, a roll of 1/2" DIG tubing, a roll of 1/4" tubing, a punch, some plastic stakes, and some 1-10 gallon adjustable emitters. The Orbit timer may be set for any manner of duration and frequency of watering. Adjust the emitters so that water appears under the bucket after about five minutes. We have about 70+ pots of plants from 15 gallon, to small hanging baskets, along with a lot of stuff in the ground. I run seven discreet systems to take care of all of these. Time release fertilizer such as Osmocote or Miracle Grow work well, although we use Nutri-Star products for others too. DIG makes a bunch of emitters that have different spray patterns too. You want one that'll cover the surface area of the pot so as to feed the plant every time it waters, at a measured rate. Keep the bottom leaves away from the spray pattern too. This'll save you a LOT of work... |
I use a drip system. Lowes or Home Depot sells a starter kit that gives you everything you need for about $40 if you don't want to piece it together yourself. Has the timer, fittings stakes, drip emitters etc. I went all summer last year and did not touch my containers, just set the timer and frequency up or down as needed. Last year was my first time growing stuff and it was still very easy to set up. I will look up the name of the kit when I get to work |
Thanks for the input, for some reason I just assumed the hose attachments wouldn't be reliable (not sure why I thought this) - good to know that they work out well though. And as far as a drip system, I really had no clue that they could be that affordable. 40 bucks is far less than I had imagined. I may start w the hose attachment while I look into the different drip systems. Thanks for the help! Jay |
Hose plus shower-head wand plus 10 minutes (longer if you like chatting with your babies). Repeat every other day or so. Added ingredient: Knowing how much water each plant wants. That comes in time. |

jutsFL, Stay away from any touch membrane timers like Melnor or Raindrip makes. They only last one summer in the hot sun. The Orbit timers have lasted me for three years until they croak. If you want to be more "hands-on," you can use a manual clockwork timer that you set once a day. Low tech, but reliable. Don't forget the vacuum breaker. It'll keep water out of your house system if your water utility has a leak and has to be shut off. Forget the plastic ones. Get a $6 brass one. Don't buy the pressure compensator either. Just regulate the pressure with your spigot setting. Less to go wrong... |
I picked up a Gilmour Pro Hose End Sprayer a couple years ago at ACE for about $20......It mixes and sprays from a concentrated solution.....No mixing required I originially bought it to foliar spray Serenade..... the organic fungicide I spray on my tomatos....any "mixed" fungicide quickly goes bad so this Gilmour offered a mix-as-you-go solution....no waste I found it convienent to also apply my liquid fertilizer concentrate (DynaGro)......I removed the small deflector and press-fit a length of clear vinyl tubing....add a watering rose to the tubing to soften the flow....now I can FertiGate right at the base of the plants....One plant or 100 all from the same jug doug |

I try to go easy on fert with my container plants. I use the E.B. Stone potting soil. It's organic with the worm castings, bat guano, etc. I usually just let the soil dry out then hit them again. |
Plain shower head >>> count 1 to 10 (will depend on how fast you can count. lol), Move to the next. I adjust my shower head to about 2.5 gal/min. So in 10 seconds it will deliver about 1.5 quarts. You may try to adjust up or down and vary your timing for container size. So say I have 30 containers lined up. It take 300 seconds or about 5 minutes. If a am inefficient (likely !) it can take 10 minutes. O' well I have the raised beds and flower beds ..haha. To fertilize I use 2 gal. watering can. If I give them each ONE quart, for 30 containers , I will have to do it 4 times. But that will be like once every week or so. Still too much work., little pay I QUIT. hehe. |
My setup last year was as follows dedicated hose bib on my house for the garden I crank the 2 hr timer on and open 1-2 of the soaker hoses at a time. Peppers on 2 hoses. Tomatoes on 1, and everything else on 1. This allows me to just crank the timer before I go to work, or when I come home. My garden is 20'x50 and this covers everything. I also have impulse sprinklers for watering flowers and the lawn that cover the whole garden, but I rarely use these anymore. I switched to the soaker hoses a few years ago after having a lot of mold on the zucchini and yellow squash leaves and losing too many tomatoes to blossom drop from the cold water. I am adding an orbit/rainbird timer and valves this year to automate the watering of everything. |

Nice garden. A lot of areas in zones 8-10 are suffering from water shortages and restrictions, so wholesale lawn/garden watering is a no-no, so drip is the way to go... |
I hate watering, and when it's 100+ it's a daily routine. But I do make it easier by added MG shake and feed for Tomatoes a couple of times a season, then all I have to do is water with the hose. haha, I should fertilize my plants in the GH they haven't been fertilized for over a month, maybe longer. Pam |
the System I used was Raindrip SDFSTHP.. But TomT226 mentioned something about the timers only working one year? I got one season out of it with no worries and haven't really looked at it to see if it still works, but I THINK its fine ( I can let you know when I get it set up). The one benefit found with the kit is that the price of the kit with all the items (including the timer) was cheaper than the timer itself (they also sell that seperately). The image is the breakdown of the kit, I am not saying you should go with this brand or set up, but I am mainly attaching it to show you what components you would need if you feel like going this route and want to know what is involved. |
Really appreciate the input from all! I think I'm going to use a spray feeder while I research more on the drips in the meantime. Looks like the drip is the way to go, just many variables I'll have to look into. I'm finding now that there are 'fertilizer injector' systems that may be attached to them. Seems like I'd want to go w this route - it'll just take a little time to figure out how I want to go about it. Jay |
Just make sure you have some sort of backflow prevention on your setup (whichever way you decide) if you use an injector system of any type. Really, I would advise you to NOT hook up anything to your hoses that inject anything foreign into your water. Many homeowners do not realize that backflow happens a lot due to cross connection. What this is, is when there is a break in the public water system (or high use) that causes water in your pipes to pull back into the water system. So if you have any type of injections of chemicals or other substance, this will siphon those chemicals back through your water pipes and possibly out into the main water system. Check valves help but are not always reliable to stop this. I used to run several water systems and it HAS happened. A visitors center at one system had all the employees getting sick etc. We found out that they had a cross connection that siphoned into the drinking water. |
Good point, I didn't know that either! This is why I'm glad I posed the question in the first place. The tap water where I live is actually good, so I never buy any bottled waters - the last thing I need is a frosty glass of MG cocktail... |
- Posted by TomT226 8 (email@example.com) on Thu, Apr 17, 14 at 6:53
The "backflow preventer" is called a vacuum breaker. It screws into the outlet of the spigot timer. The plastic ones are junk. The brass ones are $6 and last years. They'll be in the same area as the drip and irrigation stuff. A word about the fertilizer mixers on drip systems. If you wanna do this, you HAVE to get emitters that disassembles/cleanable because the suspended materials in the water WILL stop them up after a few weeks, if not days. I wouldn't do it again. Another tip for drip systems. Have a propane torch handy to soften the 1/2" & 1/4" tubing when installing straight connectors, etc. Just a touch will soften the plastic enough for correct assembly. Also, make sure you use .700 OD tubing (DIG) as it is the standard diameter. Raindrip is smaller and the couplings won't work. |
Well some do say that less watering will make your peppers hotter, as well as making it develop deeper roots so that you water less as the plant gets bigger, so you'll have to balance that with your watering routine that you decide on. And also, what is actually in your soil mix that you are using? Or the percentage of water-retaining components? |
I just used Pro-mix BX, and no peppers seemed upset about it :) |
Well, I'm off to get the sprayer on the start of next week. I'm still heavily researching the drip options, and now think I'll steer clear of the feeding injectors. Thanks for the input, the advice has in the past - and continues to save me time and money! @gardenper - I have them in 5gal buckets. The bottom layer ~1in is pebbles and small stones. The the next 1/3 layer is top soil mixed 50-50 with pine bark fines. Then the top 2/3 is just the cheapest potting soil known to man, around $1.99 a bag at Wally World. Then the top is mulched with the same pine bark. I also have 13 1/2in holes drilled in each bucket - 8 on the bottom, and 5 around the side (about 1.25in off the bottom). I thought the cheap potting soil would retain water well (and, it does - somewhat), but as the plants have grown they really drain it rather quickly. Jay |
I also just use ProMix until they hit the ground. I bottom water almost daily until they go into 18oz solo cups. Then top water every few days and water once with diluted miracle grow or organic slow release ferts after they go into the cups. Never had a problem. If your soil/medium has plenty of nutes then you should only have to worry about water and adding new fertilizer yearly. At least thats what I do but now that I think about it i may not be getting the most from my garden. |
One thing you can do to reduce water/moisture loss due to evaporation and keep the soil cooler: MULCH IT ! MULCH IT ! MULCH IT ! And I mean generously, not a thin layer. I like small pine barks (Not to be confused with shredded pine or cedar mulch, just bark). At the end of season you can rake and save them or just till it in. |
I have them mulched. But, at this point there has been a lot of settling in the containers, and likely at least a minimal amount of soil loss. I've got plenty of my pine bark left (it's really cheap here, think I payed around 3 bucks for the large size bags). Adding more won't be a problem, and definitely a wise idea. Jay |

Technical and physical phenomena 3
Experiment: floating and sinking.
# Question: What will happenif you put an egg in a glass of water? And what will happen if we put an egg in a glass of water with salt?
# Hypothesis: You have to write here, that you think will happen with each egg.
#Experiment: For do the experiment you have to do... **You need: 3 big glasses, one egg, water and salt. 1. Fill two glasses of water. 2. Throw in one of them salt gradually. Stirring with a spoon, try todissolve as much as possible. 3. Place the egg in the glass that has only water. 4. Now, put it in the glass in which you have dissolved the salt. 5. In the third glass, put the egg and water until itcovers and a little more. Add water with salt, you already have, until you get the eggs are on the fence (neither floats nor sinks). 6. Now, you add at this time a little water, then add a little saltwater, again add water and so on.
# Result: The egg is intoduce in the glass of water, will sink. The egg is inserted into the glass of salt water will float. In the third glass, the egg will staybetween the two waters. if you enter after salt water will float, if you go to get water without salt, it will sink and so on.
# Scientific explanation: On the egg, two forces act, their weight (theforce which pulls the Earth) and the thrust (the force that makes up water.) If the weight is greater than the push, the egg sinks. Otherwise fleet and if they are equal, it is between two stools.The drive gets a body in a fluid depends on three factors: • • • Liquid density The volume of the body is immersed Gravity
Adding salt to the water, get a liquid denser than pure water, whichmakes the drive gets the egg is larger and exceeds the weight of the egg: the egg floats.
Experiment: Electricity
# Question: In this experiement going to ride a circuit to see what materials are... [continua]

Excellent Vest
Great fit, nice and warm, highly recommended. Could be improved by a larger rear pocket.
05 November 2014
This is very large
I've only just received this gillet and haven't managed to get out with it yet but just wanted to warn people about sizing. I'm 6 foot tall with a 43 inch chest so according to the size guide I should be an XXL. On the advice of the other reviewers saying sizing is on the large size I ordered an XL and it's still on the big side. If you want a tighter fit I'd say possibly go two sizes smaller.
That aside the quality seems to be excellent as with all my other gore bike wear gear, I'm happy with the little touches like the little plastic bag in the zip pocket to keep your phone dry. The nice high neck, the zip has a nice contoured rubber end to help zip up or down on the go.
All in all it seems a very nice piece of kit, I'm sure I'll be very happy with it.
24 March 2014
totally recommended
In the town were I live it is not a much usable cloth, because we only have like two seasons, winter and summer, so gilets and mid warmer clothes are not the most that we use, anyway, I liked the brand gore bike wear, and also this gilet, so I decide to purchase it.
I am 178cms tall, 72kgs and 100cms chest, ordered M size, and fits me perfect over long sleeve jersey and thermo underwear, those are the garment that I have planned to wear with this gilet.
Regarding the vest quality, like all the gore bike wear clothes, is superb, fleece inner, and fits perfect.
Only two pockets on the rear but one over other, one is mesh pocket, and the other is zippered, with and attached waterproof and sealed plastic bag to keep your phone save of humidity.
Obviously, soft shell fabric is not very foldable, so, do not buy it planned that you can storage in the rear pocket of jour jersey. For better foldable capability, goes to Active Shell fabric

NEW YORK — On a recent afternoon, Wesley Card, CEO and president of Jones Apparel Group Inc., bumped into Rachel Roy, the newest addition to the company's designer portfolio, outside Jones' midtown Manhattan offices.
She asked to snap his photo and later posted it on her Twitter feed. Comments from Rachel Roy fans quickly came pouring in: "He looks so nice!" "He looks fun!" — not the usual descriptions for the CEO of a $3.62 billion firm.
Card's intimate relationship with his company's key players has been critical during a year when Jones has navigated unprecedented economic challenges.
"We really [have been] focused on getting the house in order and getting the core brands running well," Card said in a recent interview. "The economy is still tough, and it's a tough period to operate in, but we're still doing as well as we can — and better than others. We're well positioned for when the recovery really starts to take hold."
Along with his right-hand man, Andrew Cohen, CEO of footwear, accessories and retail at Jones, Card has revamped the company's footwear portfolio brand by brand, with a focus on value and design in each of its flagship labels, from Nine West to Easy Spirit. And with most shoes ranging from $69 to $89, said Card, "our brands are in the sweet spot for today's economy."
Meanwhile, as other companies have scaled back on new initiatives, Jones continues to invest in growth, this year launching Rachel Rachel Roy, an exclusive contemporary brand at Macy's; a Vintage America collection within its Nine West brand; and the Shoe Woo retail concept, which offers a multibrand approach to footwear shopping.
In the last few weeks, in particular, footwear has been a bright spot for the firm, thanks to brisk boot sales.
"We can't keep boots in stock," Card said at last week's Women's Wear Daily CEO Summit. "[Shoppers] are buying boots like there's no tomorrow. When consumers see an item they really want, [they're buying it]."
Still, like most this year, the firm has had to make tough choices and has worked to aggressively cut costs, from scaling back marketing to shutting down stores. By the end of 2010, Jones will have closed 265 locations.
"They've put everything under a microscope," said retail analyst Jennifer Black, president of Jennifer Black Associates. "They're trying to use their dollars wisely, and, I think, succeeding."
Last month, Jones reported that third-quarter net income rose 11 percent to $30.4 million, or 36 cents a share. And, excluding certain items, earnings per share came in well ahead of analysts' estimates at 46 cents, versus 34 cents the prior year. Reflecting a broader industry trend, the firm's revenues have taken a hit this year and were down 11 percent for the third quarter.
Heading into holiday, Card is optimistic that slim inventories will help the company — and other industry players — end the year on a bright note.
"This holiday season I'm not so focused on the [sales] comps, but the profits on those comps are going to be much better," Card said. "There will be less inventory, less clearance."
Card and Cohen recently sat down with Footwear News for an exclusive interview about their strategy heading into 2010.
