Harvesting of tomatoes is starting. My experiment between in ground and pots is coming along nicely.
I assume others do a comparison taste test. I've planted a bunch of heirlooms, and I'm looking for that old fashioned taste. Some of you would know what I mean. Remember the days when you could eat so many tomatoes that you'd get sores in your mouth? Also, I really want to make some salsa from these babies. Does anybody make it and freeze it? Cook it, not cook it? Let's talk =:) |
Follow-Up Postings:
I have been eating tomatoes for a few weeks now and enjoying every mouth watering bite of my toasted tomato sandwiches! I'll try my first Mr. Stripey in a snadwich before bed. Just picked the first 2 Poseidon today. Must taste test them. I planted about 36 varieties I think. A few heritage but mostly some new varieties. Love Lemon Boy and Beefsteak! We'll see. I usually stew them and freeze for winter use. Don't always have many left though as I am always giving away toms to friends and neighbours. :) Ginny |
In 2010, late blight had totally claimed all of our many tomato plants and it struck again last year, though later in the season and most of the crop was salvageable, thankfully! I was relieved to find 'Defiant', a variety breed to have good resistance to late blight and also somewhat to early blight. I have to say I had doubted the claims of it also being good tasting and productive, though yes, it's also been most satisfactory in those categories and ripens early to boot. Due to the very good traits of this tomato and future concerns for late blight, I think this variety will be sticking around with us. 'New Girl' seems decent and has good production, though I haven't yet done a taste test of fully ripened fruit. 'Crimson Fancy' has nice good sized fruit, but the flavor seems only fair at best. 'Maskotka', a heavy setting large cherry type said to be very good tasting, though it hasn't flavored up nearly as touted and likely due to a very wet season and the variety being hit with early blight. |
Growing 3 kinds - 2 heirlooms (Sophie's Choice, Stupice) and one what-was-supposed-to-be Tumbler, but isn't. I don't think I'll grow Sophie's Choice again (an early, determinant, nest-like tomato). The one in the garden got hit with hail and being determinant, never grew back. It's now got some ripe tomatoes from what wasn't hail-trashed, but not many. The one I grew in a pot I managed to avoid from getting hit by hail, but it got some kind of blight or end-rot or something that destroyed about 1/4 to 1/3 of the crop before it ripened. Most of the rest tastes pretty good and has been picked or could be picked now, so it is early, but I won't repeat next year. Stupice (an indeterminate, early heirloom) is going to be a repeat next year. Not a wild blast of tomato taste, but pretty good, beats store-bought by 100X. Fruit size is about like golf balls. This has been my main producer this year, and even though it was thoroughly bashed by hail on July 12, enough fruit was protected by fruit above it that we've had lots to eat, even made some salsa from it, and there's plenty more on the vine. Plus it is indeterminate so has recovered from the hail and has set lots of new fruit (though none of the new fruit is ripe yet), on staked vines now about 5 feet tall. Fake tumbler - well, I avoided hail with this one and it sets large cherry tomatoes and grows like crazy and is producing lots of fruit, but I have no idea of the variety and besides the fruits are tasty but have a kind of mushy texture so I wouldn't grow it again anyway. I will be looking for an upright short cherry tomato for next year though, as I now wouldn't want Tumbler since the drooping habit would make it really hard to move around when hail threatens. |

I'm growing my grandpa's heirloom that his family have been growing since the 20s. It could be moneymaker or it could be something that never had a name. The fruit is relatively small and terrible for splitting and growing with a big dent down one side. But the taste is excellent and they are dark red all the way through and they produce a lot more flesh than seeds and water. I'm also growing an orange banana paste type which is a nice tomato. I think it will be good for canning and I've already made spaghetti sauce out of them fresh and it was good. Anyway they're both good for canning which is the #1 reason I grow tomatoes. |

Ginny, It's funny how people have different taste preferences when it comes to tomatoes. On the tomato forum, one of the most disliked varieties was Mr Stripey! I grow Big Beef, a hybrid, every year for my salsa-making. Otherwise, I grow heirloom varieties; I especially enjoy the black tomatoes.. I have Cherokee Purple, Paul Robeson, Japanese Black Trifele, Black Zebra and Black Krim, along with about six others. I also have a couple of Sungold cherry...this is a monster of a plant, growing in all directions and is about five feet tall right now. Did I mention I'm the only one who will eat cherry tomatoes? My salsa recipe is essentially the one from the Company's Coming Preserves (yellow) Cookbook...It's called Picante Salsa...I don't use the canned chilies, I prefer to use a handful of fresh jalapenos instead. |
I only have Early Girl. Some have been slowly ripening, but the ones i've eaten have very little taste to them. Not sure why this would be. Any ideas? |
Mine are just starting to come in. Most of the plants have 10 or more tomatoes on the vines. I've found the taste of the larger tomatoes disappointing and variable. I may be letting them get overripe. The cherries aren't bad. The most agressive flavour (sharp tomatoe taste) was Reisentraube. The earlies like Stupice, Olpaka, etc. weren't the first ripe -- Burning Spear and Sungold OP were. I broke down and topped the vines -- it was a jungle out there. I justified the butchery by assuming if tomatoes hadn't set by now; they wouldn't be ripe before frost. Also, with over 50 plants, I should have enough tomatoes. :) |
I always grow my tomatoes in large black nursery pots and a few in maxicap grow boxes. I get much better performance in the pots than when they're in the ground. The soil gets a little warmer for them that way. Am growing a lot of new varieties to me this year. A lot of russian and polish varieties I never tried before. I also have a couple of sungolds and a "patio" tomato. By far, the "patio" is producing the best. Seems nice and sturdy and survived the hail quite well. Have tried many different recipes for salsa over the years. Now, I only make fresh salsa. Much better taste to me. Tastes like summer :) My recipe varies every week, as I use whatever tomatoes and peppers I have ready from the garden. Always lots of lime and I always add different chile powders that I have in my collection. That reminds me, I need to make another fresh batch tonight.... |
hmacdona ... my sister also always makes fresh salsa ... it's OMG good eh! |
I've noticed that amount of sunlight while the tomatoes are ripening has a lot to do with the flavor, so I'm probably going to be disappointed in all or most of mine this year, unless the weather makes a 180 change...not likely to happen at this point! Usually by now I would be forcing fresh tomatoes on anyone who visited, but we've had hardly any so far...a handful of sungold (which are remarkably blah this year) and 1 Early Girl...I wasn't expecting much from EG--hadn't grown it before and had read the flavor was nothing to get excited over--well, all 4 of us who ate 1/4 were thrilled with the flavor. Only complaint, again from all 4 of us, was the thick skin. |
I am growing purple cherokeee, black Krim and Big Beef for me, as a slicer tomato to have on toast, or as a tomato salad with sliced onions - black olives - feta or mozzarella cheese, some crushed fresh garlic and a drizzling of olive oil. I am trying an oxheart and Viva Italia plum for dh, as the slicers are too soft and juicy for him. Also am hoping to try roasting some of these " paste " like tomatoes for freezing to use as sauce during the winter. |
Well, here is Poseidon before becoming my lunch. Not as sweet as I expected for a pink tomato but the skin was perfect, thin, and blemish free. Mild, tart taste. Good for acid sensitive tummies. :) Ginny |
I'm growing Lunchbox, Roma and Veeroma and they are ripening up nicely. I've been pruning non-producing stems all season but last week I pruned heavy, exposing most of the fruit to sunshine. It seems that every year I'm ripening them in a cardboard box in the basement and this year looks like I may finally get vine ripened tomatoes I'm also growing Sun Gold and I do love the flavour of them. So far the harvest from 4 plants has been far from huge but if the weather stays decent, from here on in there should be lots to pick. I wanted to mention that I tasted a variety this year called Juliet - an oblong grape type and the taste was so awesome that I may grow them instead of Sun Gold next year. One of the best tomatoes I've tasted in a long time. |

Well, I've been eating Elfin Grape off the plants for a couple of days, and they're delicious. Nice flavour and not too sweet, although I haven't been able to leave them long enough to be fully ripe. There's just something that satisfies the soul when you can stand in your yard and eat right from the plant =:) An update on the inground/buckets experiment. I've taken 4 tomatoes with BER from the bucket plants. None from the inground ones, although I haven't bent over to look at each tomato on each plant. The Elgin Grapes seem to be producing about the same, but the other plants are definitely doing better inground. Also, the extra care and watering of the buckets is losing it's appeal. I'm not sure yet if I'll plant in buckets again next year. It's still too early to tell. |
This summer's heat has vine ripened the tomatoes like I've never before seen, heck sometimes there's only a few somewhat red ones to pick before frost. Oh, and yes, I do prune the plants to focus energy on production rather than a mass of foliage. As the season progresses, the inside of the plant is stripped of internal leaves, suckers are removed and late blooms nipped off and the canopy maintained with a moderate amount of foliage, even the big long leaves are snipped back. Pudge, next year I must grow 'Juliet'! 'Defiant' loaded in fruit with much more also higher up on the plant 'Crimson Fancy ... big honkin tomatoes! |
- Posted by nutsaboutflowers 2b/3a (My Page) on Wed, Aug 22, 12 at 18:54
Well isn't that interesting? I've never seen anyone take all the leaves off like that. I like it. Do you suppose a really hot yard would end up with sunscald on the fruit if I did that? Maybe I'll give it a try on the plants at the back. =:) |
- Posted by northspruce z3a MB CDA (My Page) on Wed, Aug 22, 12 at 19:25
Good looking maters Terry! You've got a lot on that plant. Mine are ripening on the vine for once too. I will never leave them unpruned after this. I'm really seeing the difference in production and ripening. |
I bought Defiant seeds this year from T&T I think. They look awesome, Terry! Mouth watering! Next year. :) I picked 12 different tomatoes today including my first vine ripe Ultra Sweet and Pink Girl, and was thinking to myself how it still thrills me to pick my own vegies from my own homegrown plants. Only a true gardener understands this and probably why I like to grow so many varieties. :) Not looking forward to winter. :( Ginny |
- Posted by nutsaboutflowers 2b/3a (My Page) on Thu, Aug 23, 12 at 18:16
I threw away one of my 5 gallon bucket grown tomato plants today. The 4 very small tomatoes on it ( one of which had BER) just didn't seem worth the cost of water and work involved in waiting to see if they'd even have time to ripen on the vine. The other similar plant in the ground has maybe 12 tomatoes, but much bigger ones. I have a few varieties that will hopefully all have vine ripened "testers" soon, so that I can have a comparison taste test. =:) |
nutsaboutflowers and northspruce ... this photo shows that a good amount of the canopy is left to ensure plants remain vigorous and the fruit does not become scalded. I do have a very protected backyard that really heats up and the tomatoes have not become scalded ... though, years ago, such had occurred when I over zealously removed too much foliage at one time, so now I prune in stages. The plants shown have had most of their fruit harvested. |

Well my patio tomatoes have been harvested - by the stinkin dog. Probably the same dog who gleefully ate all the 5000 SU hot peppers. She's makin dog salsa in there. Anyway the garden box tomatoes are absolutely rocking. I've picked a large basket off the two plants to can, and the majority of them are full sized but still unripe. They have stopped splitting since the first batch, I guess because the weather has cooled down and is a bit wetter. |
- Posted by nutsaboutflowers 2b/3a (My Page) on Tue, Aug 28, 12 at 14:37
By "probably the same dog" do you mean your dog? Bad dog! Bad dog! Interesting that you're canning unripe tomatoes. What are you making? BTW anyone......do birds eat tomatoes? The beautiful perfect tomato I was going to eat for lunch has been half eaten by either a bird or maybe a squirrel? Either way I'm not impressed. I already left a whole tree of chokecherries for the birds to eat, so what more do they think they deserve? =:) |
- Posted by northspruce z3a MB CDA (My Page) on Tue, Aug 28, 12 at 18:45
Oh yes it was my dog, I just don't know which one. I'm guessing it was Missie because she's sneaky and ate the peppers. The tomatoes that I'm canning are the few that are already ripe. I see how I worded that made no sense. What I meant was most of the tomatoes are still on the plants, unpicked and unripe. I don't think green tomatoes have enough acid to can, plus they would taste gross. ;) |
My tomato plants are really producing this year - they're so loaded with tomatoes that the cages have fallen over on a couple. At first, they didn't taste that great, but they're a lot better now. |
Ginny, those sure are some mighty impressive tomatoes you have there! What's your favorite full flavored productive large sized tomato? |
- Posted by nutsaboutflowers 2b/3a (My Page) on Thu, Sep 6, 12 at 17:20
I was going to start Part 2 of this thread so it didn't get too long for people to want to read, but there's a question from twrosz that Ginny hasn't seen yet, so...... Vine ripening is coming along very well so far, with a total of 42 eaten (mostly by me) and a dozen or more ready by tomorrow or the next day. Total count doesn't include the tons of Elfin Grape that I've eaten outside, as there's been too many to count =:) I'm sorry to report that I don't have any sores in my mouth yet, as I was hoping to get them like I did when I was a kid. I love an acidic tomato. I weighed my lunch tomato today. It weighed .99208 of a pound. One thick slice made a wonderful toasted sandwich, with only a bit of bread on the edges not covered =:) |
- Posted by northspruce z3a MB CDA (My Page) on Thu, Sep 6, 12 at 18:45
Aaah NAF I pictured your tomato sandwich with some S&P and a little mayo, it looked beautiful. My tomatoes are still producing well despite a second round of dog plundering. I wish I'd kept track of tomato numbers but besides fresh eating, I've canned 12 jars and have another 12 jars or so to can in the next couple of days, and about as many again still ripening on the vine. I looked into making paste but 5 lbs of tomatoes cooks for 7 hours (attended) and makes 3 jars... no thanks! I'll keep buying that flat from Costco for $5. LOL |
OK, I guess I should answer Terry. I have yet to make the short trip out to visit him and take some white cucs and my favorite tomatoes. :) Terry, I have to say that I really still like my Beefsteak and Bush Beefsteak. I didn't seem to enjoy the orange and yellow ones as much this year; too sweet. Lemon Boy being an exception to that. Cherokee Purple was awesome and I did enjoy the huge Don's tomato. Still have about 6 left on the vines. Super Sweet was "super sweet" and I wasn't crazy about Poseidon or Silvery Fir Tree. Husky Red was delish and so was Oxheart. Of the orange ones I liked Feuerwerk. I have at least 2 toasted tomato sandwiches every day with salt and mayo. :) The best! I have yet to stew any tomaotes to freeze as I have been giving them all away! Took about 10 toms and 6 white cucs to my doctor yesterday and she asked me if I expected her to share them with the staff. Lol! I told her she could keep them all to herself if she wanted. :) Dogs are fed and I am off to make my third tomato sandwich for the day. :)Picked another 3 pails full this morning so am off to deliver vegies tomorrow. :) Ginny |

Well, the weather is cooling off substantially, and nightly lows will be close to zero degrees. Does everyone pull out their plants and ripen in the house, or do you cover your tomatoes and hope they'll still do well on the vine? And.........is green tomato pie good ??? |
- Posted by northspruce z3a MB CDA (My Page) on Sat, Sep 15, 12 at 15:38
I'll be picking everything off mine tomorrow. The forecast low is 2 and then 0 for Monday. All the tomatoes left on the vines are full sized and starting to turn anyway, so they'll be finishing off in a cardboard box. |
- Posted by nutsaboutflowers 2b/3a (My Page) on Sat, Sep 15, 12 at 18:52
Hi Gillian. Our forecast is similar. I think I'll do the same, as the tomatoes don't ripen very well when temperatures drop that low anyway, and I'm not in the mood to cover every night either. Besides, the faster I get them out of there, the faster I can prepare that part of the garden with grass/leaves/kitchen scraps. I've already done the part of the garden that had the beans. I even transplanted 6 worms that I dug up elsewhere. Eeew! I could feel them crawling on my hand through my glove. Where's a little boy when you need one ?? Lynn =:) |
Mine too - i picked the ripe ones today and will pick the green ones tomorrow. |
Just brought in the rest of the tomatoes. Frost warning for the city tonight. I think I will weigh what I have picked today and tally up my harvest from the year. :) Ginny |
No frost here yet, the lower levels of Calgary got hit though last week. Still lots of tomatoes, got some from "German Gold" (?), wow, what a treat. Almost 100% meat inside, great taste. Also made some spaghetti sauce and salsa with the Tumblers and Sungolds. Put in some cilantro seeds, besides the abysmal germination rate, the ones that did come up grew very quickly and provided me with lots of deliciousness. |

Specifications, Pricing and Availability
If you frequent TweakTown enough then you know I'm not a big fan of low cost, low capacity SSDs. My personal name for them is low value SSDs and for good reason. SSDs perform best when able to read and write to the flash in parallel. When you start removing the number of physical flash chips you reduce the number of parallel channels and performance is reduced. Often times these products are able to show good peak performance in synthetic tests, but falter in real-world use. It's like you are only getting half of the SSD experience. Would you jump with only half a parachute?
The other half of the SSD experience comes from access times. This is what users feel when working with their computer. An old computer can feel fast with an SSD. My trusty Lenovo T61p only supports SATA 1.5 and is at least four years old, but feels faster than most new computers being sold today thanks to the solid state drive inside of it.
The ADATA S396 is only being released in a 30GB capacity size at this time. The SandForce SF-2141 controller can scale up to 64GB so at a later time we may see a larger version, but for now this is a one capacity product number. The drive itself is a standard 2.5" form factor, so you won't have an issue installing the drive in your notebook or desktop with the included desktop adapter bracket.
The claimed speed is 280MB/s read and 250MB/s write. ADATA doesn't list IOPS performance. Unlike the other second generation SandForce controllers we've looked at, the 2141 controller is limited to SATA II. That doesn't mean you can't use it on a SATA III port, the port will drop down to SATA II specifications and speeds.
The S396 30GB SSD should be priced at around $60 here in the US. At the time of writing Newegg didn't have the drive listed and Google Shopping came up empty as well. When it comes to value added accessories ADATA spared no expense, their low cost offering ships with the same accessories as their flagship SSD. Included is a three year warranty, desktop adapter bracket and a screw package for installing your drive. Actonis Drive Cloning software is also included with the drive via a digital download. The key is included on the label of the drive itself.

Jokowi won't report eavesdropping to police
Published on Feb 21, 2014 8:30 PM
JAKARTA (THE JAKARTA POST/ASIA NEWS NETWORK): Jakarta Governor Joko "Jokowi" Widodo said on Friday that he would not report the listening devices found in his residence two months ago to the police.
The eavesdropping was harmless given his "relative unimportance," he said.
"The culprit should just wiretap important people. But me? Who am I? What would they want from me? At home I talked about fried rice on the first day, sayur lodeh on the second day, goat satay on the third day and so on," he told reporters Friday at City Hall.
"I'm not going to make a big deal out of it by reporting it to the police. I'm pretty sure it was nothing important anyway."

Match Preview
Kello keen to keep pressure on Old Firm Goalkeeper Marian Kello knows Hearts' aspirations at the top of the Clydesdale Bank Premier League will be tested to the full in the next fortnight. An unbeaten SPL run of nine wins in the last 10 games has led many to suggest Hearts could challenge Rangers and Celtic at the top of the standings. After Rangers at Tynecastle on Saturday, Hearts meet Celtic away, St Johnstone at home and Rangers away in matches which are likely to determine whether they can sustain the pressure on the Old Firm. Kello said: "Hopefully we are competitive with them and we will see in a few weeks how good we are. "We want to carry on our record. We can be competitive with them until the end of the season. "But we don't want to say it with a big mouth because in one week we could be nine or 12 points behind again. "We will see next week or in two weeks how we get on." Hearts will make late decisions on the fitness of striker Kevin Kyle and midfielder Rudi Skacel ahead of Saturday. Kyle (groin) and Skacel (calf) missed Tuesday's win at Kilmarnock, but manager Jim Jefferies may risk them against the defending SPL champions. Calum Elliot is also doubtful, while long-term injury absentees Andrew Driver (thigh) and Suso Santana (knee) are nearing returns. Kello is not thinking beyond Saturday's game with Rangers, who are five points above Hearts in second with a game in hand. "We know we have many games soon and we want to take each game separately and make sure you do everything for success," he added. Kello, who returned to the team following a back injury at Kilmarnock, insists Jefferies' men have every reason to be optimistic ahead of the game. He added: "We do not fear them and we must be confident when we go into the game. "If we go in there with fear, the team will not achieve anything. "You must have respect, but not fear." Jamie MacDonald was unflustered as he deputised for Kello in the games against St Mirren, Hibernian - keeping two clean sheets in two wins - and in the Scottish Cup loss to St Johnstone. Competition for places has been key to Hearts' run, but Kello is confident he has the ability to remain first choice. "He played well and I kept my fingers crossed for him because I wanted the team to do well," added Kello. "It is about proving myself again and I'm not scared of my opponents or friends in the goals. "In every training you need to work at 100% to show you're the best. It's pushing me forward, definitely." Rangers are boosted by the return of Madjid Bougherra from suspension. Steven Naismith could also be in contention for the visit to Tynecastle after being sidelined with a hamstring injury. Sasa Papac faces a fitness test on a groin strain, while long-term casualty Kirk Broadfoot remains on the sidelines with a foot injury. Speaking ahead of the encounter, Rangers manager Walter Smith is hopeful Kenny Miller will be the only player heading for the Ibrox exit door this month. The striker, who was out of contract this summer, quit the Scottish champions on Thursday when he signed for Turkish outfit Bursaspor. Smith is now seeking to recruit a couple of players - a forward and a defender - on loan until the end of the season to bolster his compact squad. And the Rangers boss is keen to avoid losing any more of his current crop of players, claiming there has been no interest from other clubs so far. He said: "There hasn't been activity at all for any of the rest of the players and certainly I would hope it stays that way during the transfer window. "We wouldn't want to lose any more players. We've only lost Kenny because of the contractual situation and being unable to meet his demands for a new contract. "We are disappointed about that but we don't need to lose any other players and hopefully we won't have to." Papac has yet to sign a new deal but Smith remains confident an agreement will be reached with the full-back. And Smith has now challenged his players to fill the void left by Miller and he believes Nikica Jelavic has already shown signs he can have a major part to play for Rangers. The #4million signing made his comeback in midweek after almost four months on the sidelines following a serious ankle injury which required surgery. Smith said: "He is a natural goalscorer although he more than has the capability to play for the team and to link with the rest of the players." end

Match Report
Hearts underline title credentials Ryan Stevenson grabbed the only goal of the game as Hearts continued their bid to be taken seriously as title contenders with a 1-0 win over Rangers in the Clydesdale Bank Premier League. The win allowed the Jambos to move to within two points of the Scottish champions and strengthen their case for a three-way fight for the championship, or to at least split the Old Firm this season. Defeat at Tynecastle denied Rangers the opportunity to move into pole position ahead of Celtic's game later in the day, with the Hoops next up to face Hearts. Hearts striker Kevin Kyle failed to recover from a groin problem, meaning Stevenson was deployed in an unfamiliar forward role, while Rudi Skacel was passed fit for the clash at Tynecastle. Rangers were boosted by the return of Madjid Bougherra from suspension and both Steven Naismith and Sasa Papac from injury. Kyle Lafferty started up front following Kenny Miller's midweek departure to Bursaspor. The match was just 27 seconds old when Hearts goalkeeper Marian Kello was called into action to parry a Lafferty shot to his right after the striker carved out an early chance on goal. At the other end, Skacel did well to cut inside before setting up Stevenson in front of goal but he volleyed well over, with Allan McGregor untroubled in the Rangers goal. Lafferty had another chance for Rangers when he collected from Maurice Edu but connected awkwardly and his tame effort was easily gathered by Kello. Rangers still looked dangerous and Naismith slipped a lovely pass to Jamie Ness in plenty of space and the youngster forced a decent save from Kello, before seeing a swerving effort tipped just wide of the far post seconds later. It was proving to be a busy afternoon for Kello, who blocked another stinging shot from Lafferty, before denying Naismith the opener from a powerful drive. Lee McCulloch then picked up the first yellow card of the game for a clumsy challenge on David Templeton. He was joined in referee Mike Tumilty's book by Bougherra for a foul on Stevenson. With half-time fast approaching, Skacel could have snatched the lead for Hearts with a shot from the left which fizzed across the face of goal and past the upright, before McGregor blocked from Stephen Elliott. Rangers tried to break the deadlock shortly after the restart when Papac went on a surging run before seeing his point-blank shot blocked by Kello, who was in superb form for Hearts. The champions had another chance to pile on the pressure when Lafferty was fouled by Ismael Bouzid 25 yards out but a decent opportunity was squandered when Steven Davis' free-kick failed to make it past the Hearts wall. Lafferty was withdrawn with 20 minutes to go and replaced by Nikica Jelavic, who had recently returned to action after recovering from a serious ankle injury sustained at the same venue almost four months ago. But it was Hearts who opened the scoring after 77 minutes. Skacel went to ground in the box under pressure from Ness but there was no penalty as play raged on in the packed goalmouth. Skacel picked himself up to have a half-shot on goal which was forced into the back of the net by Stevenson from close-range. Rangers could have hauled themselves level when Jelavic tried his luck with an ambitious overhead kick which crashed off the underside of the bar as Hearts held on for the win.

- Where to start with this one? Remember about a year ago, there were rumors that Jay Z had been flirting with a rapper/model who calls herself LIV (she also goes by Yes Liv Can)? Well, yesterday, Yes Liv Can released a low budget, hella cheesy music video called "Sorry Mrs. Carter." The song is to the tune of Outkast's "Ms. Jackson" and the thesis is basically: WAKE UP, BEYONCE, BECAUSE JAY IS CHEATING ON YOU. According to Yes Liv Can, she turned down Jay because she won't be anyone's "number two." Of course, it's entirely possible she is totally delusional … but even still, I'm getting a sinking feeling that Jayoncé really is about to implode. [Jezebel] Keep reading »

You've got some stand out pics here! Good job! Love the hummingbird particularly. |
Must not be a statute of fragrance limitations Jim-Bob cuz I can smell that pup from here. Sure do miss the gentleman but.............:-( Them Zs look kinda like dahlias.....nice ! Two of three of my favorite visitors (BF & HB) We get Swallowtails but not Monarchs. The 3rd of course are bees. We have thousands now with all the sedums and Rose of Sharons but our Japanese pagoda tree has so many that I swear it's going to lift off at any moment. Makes me think of you know who :-) |
Jim - Your Mister Lincoln is gorgeous! Love the zinnias, such cheerful flowers and the butterfly and hummingbird too and that is such a beautiful scenic view of the picture taken on top of the small mountain. |

Gosh those are gorgeous pics of Mr. Lincoln. Mine has just bombed this year. It's never been too good of a bloomer - but I'm going to follow the advice about cutting back hard after blooming!! Was that your advice? I've never seen zinnias before. Those are lovely!! I wonder if they would overwinter in zone 3. Probably not - that's why I haven't seen them here in greenhouses. Looks like you're having a wonderful summer. Thanks for sharing! |
Not my advice Carol... Our Lincoln is a stingy bloomer no matter what I have tried...lol Approx 22+ blooms all season is average here... |

Spain and France sold 13.04 billion euros ($17 billion) of debt, with borrowing costs falling as the the European Central Bank's increased lending spurred demand and eclipsed a second year of deficit slippage in Spain.
Yields fell and demand rose at the first Spanish auction since Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy loosened the nation's budget- deficit goal for 2012. France issued 8.46 billion euros of notes, at the top end of the range targeted by the treasury, and 1.58 billion euros of inflation-linked bonds.
"There is no indication here that Spain's recent fiscal slippage has served to put a dent in investor sentiment which, in itself, continues to be buoyed by the ECB's aggressive liquidity provisioning," said Richard McGuire, a senior fixed- income strategist at Rabobank International in London.
The ECB's second Long Term Refinancing Operation, under which its three-year lending reached 1.02 trillion euros in late February, has eased the region's debt crisis and alleviated concern about slowing growth by giving banks the means to invest in the region's sovereign debt.
In the second such operation last month, 800 banks received a total of 529.5 billion euros, more than the 470 billion euros median forecast in a Bloomberg News survey and the 489 billion euros of the first tender in December.
Spain's 10-year benchmark bond yield rose to 5.163 basis points after the auction as of 12:28 a.m. from 5.134 before the sale. The spread over German bunds of the same maturity widened 5 basis points to 321 points. France's 10-year yield rose 6.6 basis points to 2.98 percent.
Auction Details
Spain sold 3 billion euros of bonds, below the Treasury's maximum target of 3.5 billion euros. Notes maturing in April 2016 yielded an average 3.374 percent, down from 3.748 percent when the securities were auctioned on Jan. 12, while bonds maturing in January 2015 and July 2018 were sold to yield 2.44 percent and 4.193 percent respectively, the Madrid-based Bank of Spain said today.
Demand for the notes maturing in April 2016 was 4.13 times the amount sold, compared with 2.21 in January. The bid-to-cover ratio for the 2015 bonds was 4.96 times and 2.91 for the 2018 bonds, which hadn't been auctioned since 2008.
'Today was a test for demand, to check if it is still solid despite worries about the country's fiscal consolidation," said Annalisa Piazza, a fixed-income analyst at Newedge Group in London. "Spain already funded about 40 percent of its requirement and might hold for benchmark auctions, which are cheaper, to sell more."
Spanish Budget
In the auction today, France sold 2.106 billion euros of April 2014 notes at an average yield of 0.7 percent, lower than the 1.14 percent on Sept. 15. It sold 1.93 billion euros of October 2014 securities at a yield of 0.86 percent, below the 2.01 percent it paid on Jan. 20, and 1.165 billion euros in February 2016 notes at an average yield of 1.4 percent compared with 2.17 percent on Nov. 17.
Euro-area finance chiefs agreed this week Spain's budget deficit goal for 2012 was unachievable as the euro area's fourth-biggest economy is set to enter its second recession since 2009.
Spain's budget deficit was 8.5 percent of gross domestic product last year, compared with a 6 percent target. For 2012, European finance ministers agreed to ease the goal to 5.3 percent from an initial 4.4 percent.
Rajoy yesterday reiterated his support for the ECB's three- year loans to banks, saying they provided "great relief" to the euro region. Banks based in Spain borrowed 152.4 billion euros in February from the ECB, data showed today, the most on record and almost half the amount taken by euro-region lenders overall.

I don't mean cranky. I mean appearing drunk and belligerent. When my wife's sugar went low, my wife tried to get her to drink some orange juice and she pretty much fought my wife claiming there was nothing wrong with her. There was a lot wrong with her.
I don't believe I've made an assumption about anyone's medical condition in this or any other thread. I have brought up anecdotal evidence regarding a person who I believe should not carry a firearm on a regular basis based on her lack of control of her medical condition.
People talk about gun rights, but rights to not exist in a vacuum. With gun rights come responsibilities which are every bit as important. Now some may disagree with me, but I believe that before anyone carries a gun on their person (concealed or otherwise) they have the responsibility to:
o Know their weapon and become familiar in its use.
o Be trained both in "gun control" (hitting their target) and situations
where a gun ought to be presented and/or used.
o Be able to be in control of their faculties at all times.
Things can happen to all of us which might impair our ability to use a gun. We need to guard against those we have control over such as not drinking to drunkenness or taking illicit (or even some prescription) drugs while packing. Others are out of our control.
This boomer is getting older too. If I were in the throes of Alzheimer's, and I wouldn't give up my weapon, I'd hope that my wife would take steps to disarm me. And if she didn't I'd hope the state would do so. Even though I have the right to defend my life, I would never want to become a danger to myself and those around me.
I think I'm going to use this to bow out of this thread. With some, we may have to agree to disagree.

Smoking is bad news for everyone, but especially for kids who have asthma. Smoking causes coughing and wheezing and makes it hard to breathe — the same problems that happen during an asthma flare-up. So if you add smoke to lungs that are already irritated, you have big-time breathing trouble.
If people have asthma and they smoke, they will probably:
You might wonder why people smoke at all. Many people start smoking when they are kids or teens and they try it for many reasons. Maybe all of their friends were doing it or they grew up in a house where all the grownups smoked.
But no matter why they started, many smokers wish they could quit. Smoking doesn't just cause problems for people who have asthma. Over time, smoking can lead to serious health problems, such as cancer and heart disease.
Quitting smoking is hard, though, because the tobacco (say: tuh-ba-ko) in cigarettes, pipes, and cigars contains a substance called nicotine (say: nih-kuh-teen). Nicotine is addictive (say: uh-dik-tiv). When something is addictive, your body and mind will tell you that you need it to feel OK. If you don't get it, you might feel sick, stressed out, or crabby.
We hope you're not smoking! But even if you don't smoke, tobacco smoke can still cause you problems. How? If you're around other people who smoke, just breathing that secondhand smoke can cause an asthma flare-up. You can ask to sit in the no-smoking section at restaurants and other places, such as ballparks. But that might not be enough to protect you from nearby smoke.
If a friend or family member smokes around you, let him or her know that it makes your asthma worse. Ask the person not to smoke in your house or car. This can really help with your asthma symptoms.
If you can't get the person to stop smoking around you, talk with your mom, dad, or another trusted adult, such as a school counselor.
Even if you try your best, you still might find yourself in a smoky situation. That's why you should always have your rescue medication with you!

A 14-year-old girl was gang-raped here in the early hours of Monday.
Two minor boys, aged 15 and 16, were among the three arrested within hours of the crime. The police are now looking for another person, who, they suspect, is also complicit in the incident.
According to the investigating officer, the girl was sent to the market by her mother on Sunday evening.
On her way back, one of the family's acquaintances reportedly stopped her and took her to the Malad station.
"He got her an ice-cream and took her to the CST [Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus] station at around 11.30 p.m. He made her sit in a corner and told her he would get some food," sub-inspector D.M. Kuperkar told The Hindu.
"After some time, Abdul Rehman (20) approached her and asked her why she was sitting alone in the station. He asked her to stay in his place where she'd be safe. He [also] assured her that he would drop her home the next morning," said Mr. Kuperkar.
The victim accompanied Rehman, who took her to the first floor of an unused public toilet facility at Masjid Bunder on P D'mello Road in South Mumbai.
The other two accused were waiting there for them. The three then raped the girl.
"They let her off around 3.15 a.m. and asked her to go home. When the girl was roaming listlessly on P D'mello road, a patrolling van of Pydhonie police station spotted her and questioned her. She told us the entire matter. We immediately went to the spot where we found Rehman. The other two had gone away. We arrested him and picked up the other two boys after interrogating him," Mr. Kuperkar said.
He said the three were booked under Sections 363, 376 and 34 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC).
While Rehman was remanded in police custody for five days by a local court, the two minors accused of the crime and the victim have been sent to a remand home.

Awesome 88%garthibiza Popular place, seems to be always with the "Fully Booked" sign up. Depends on what you want. There are rooms on three floors. The front ones are on the street, very noisy at night, the back rooms, no windows, and everyone who goes to their rooms have to open and close the door next to yours. The bathrooms are shared with all those on the same floor, and they are clean, and well equiped, but if someone just took a shower, and you want to use the toilet, you'll get wet feet .......... Unlimited free internet use, helpful reception. But teh place is made of concrete, faces south and the whole building is very hot. We had air con, and it was so cold, we kept waking up to turn it off, then woke up later to turn it on. With a fan room, well .......... ( people told me it was unbearable ) Difficult call, but for us........... not so good.

Hi all, Firstly, a HUGE thanks to all of you here for your guidance and advice. From the layout through to the backsplash, I could never have done it on my own. We lived with our original kitchen from 1966 for 17 years before making this change. It was the whole main floor of the house, so big improvement for us! The before picture has a couple of my own homemade fixes on it, too, including painted counter tops and peel and stick floor and backsplash "tiles". We haven't quite decorated yet, but it's mostly done! Thanks! Cindy Details: Before from Hall/Living Room. We took out all the walls. Cabinets Under Island |

Your granite is beautiful and your desk is A+ with the garden window and the cookbooks right at hand. The wood valances are a nice retro touch yet done modern. Ditto for the curtains on the large expanse of glass. I like how you handled the black void (aka tv) your tv/fireplace wall. Wishing you 17+ years of enjoyment after the long wait. (I'm still in that boat, but rowing closer to the finish.) |
Beautiful - it was definitely worth the wait! I love the desk and happy yellow pots. Congrats! |
Wow. Really beautiful! I particularly like the pendants. They're a nice, fancy-ish touch to a utilitarian kitchen. They work with the cabinets very straight lines. Nice with the granite on the island, too. Now (referencing another thread) that's a kitchen that can support a lovely island. Enjoy every minute of it! |
Love your garden window! I'd place my desk there, too! |

That looks so lovely! Good choice to go with the calmer backsplash. Your counters stand out beautifully-though I did like your original choice too. Love the garden window with desk. Great way to avoid staring at a brick wall. Enjoy your lovely new space! |

so pretty! Congrats! |
Just beautiful! I love your color choices, so welcoming. |
just wow! it looks like a magazine ad for kitchens! i love that huge island and it is perfect for your space. |
So beautiful. How hard do you find it to maintain the white cabinets? Ours recently arrived, and I am hoping that the fingerprints and dirt I see on the cabinets are due to rougher use by the GC to install them. I started getting nervous that I'd have to constantly wipe down the cabinets to keep them clean and eventually every single ding and dent would be super visible making the cabinets look dull within months/a couple of years :( I really love the look of white cabinets but having buyers remorse on practicality :( |
Thanks, everyone! This is the fun part! DeeV78 - I'm sure others who have had white kitchens longer can speak better to this, but so far there have been no issues. They wipe off beautifully. I don't love the bit of dirt that seems to collect in the little corners of the shaker trim, but that's easy enough to deal with. I do worry, though, about the dings and chips. So far, only one teeny one, but I'm sure that will be an issue moving forward. If you love a white kitchen, and I have ALWAYS loved white kitchens, long before they were popular, you will be happy to clean the marks. Don't regret it - you will be very happy!!! |
Cinjos, it's lovely!!! The ceiling detail is very interesting and is that a skylight over your island? Fabulous transformation, congratulations! |

Holy cow, what a transformation! I bet you are still pinching yourself. No wonder you love that desk....how refreshing! Congratulations! Patience pays off, doesn't it?! |
The whole kitchen is so beautiful, really breathtaking. I'm glad you stuck to your vision and did the desk area, it's beautiful. |
Love the windows and your granite!!! Gorgeous kitchen. |

What a dramatic difference! Your new kitchen is absolutely beautiful--I love the pendants and that gorgeous island! |

Absolutely gorgeous! Love the granite and that window! |
Beautiful transformation. It's like a brand new house. You must be thrilled with your new gorgeous kitchen. I noticed your 3 small boys & the 5 stools. But then I thought about the 17 year wait, which is the exact number of years we waited for our kitchen reno. I'm guessing the boys are a bit older. Congrats Cindy! |
romy - good eye! Yes, the boys are teenagers now. My husband and I were just talking about how we are glad in a way that we didn't do this when they were little because they would have ruined it! Of course, life would have been a whole lot easier if I could have watched them play in the living room from the kitchen. On the other hand, we fixed up the lower level family room and send them down there to watch tv now and hubby and I pretend we're living in our own loft apartment. Couldn't do that when they were little and I think the noise would have driven me crazy to be all in one open space. Thanks for the good wishes! |

Wow! What a major renovation! You did a fantastic job. I too love the granite (and the edge you chose), the pendants, the huge island, and that desk area is soooooo charming! |

Maybe I missed it- where are the counter stools from? I've been looking for something like that! |
Well worth the wait! It's beautiful! |
julieboulangerie - the stools were purchased online from Costco (in Canada). It was part of the "Burke" collection. Unfortunately, they aren't currently available, but they have popped on and off of the website this year. Hope that's helpful. |
What everyone else said -- breathtaking and magazine-worthy! I love everything about it. Congrats! |

Very very nice! Love everything, the floors are beautiful, pendant lights, and as others said the desk and bookshelves looks great and will be used so much I am sure. Enjoy all of your hard work and congrats on a project so very well done! |
Gorgeous, the wall paint looks great with all the beautiful choices in the kitchen and I love the little upper bookcase at the desk. I've been wondering what to do with a space like that in the new laundry room. That's a perfect way to use that small space. It looks like a model kitchen on a home tour! Great job and wishing you many years of family fun in your new kitchen. |
Wow that looks like two completely different buildings! I was expecting to see at least a similarity somewhere but it looks like the before / after pics weren't even taken from the same address. |
Gorgeous!! I love the little desk area. You can grow herbs in the winter in your garden window! You must be so happy it's finished and thrilled with the result! |
So glad everyone likes my little desk, too! I was warned that it would become a dumping ground and I completely see why. Of course, I cleared it off completely for the picture, and it usually is a big mess, but that's why I love it. That mess used to be all over my kitchen counters and table! Now I can keep the island clear most of the time. I work from home most days and love being in my pretty new space. I wouldn't want to be in a separate office. The rest of the house needs a lot of work, too, but oops, there's no more money left! |
What an undertaking and it came out beautiful! I love your box beam ceiling. I also love how you handled your desk window area |
Lovely! Thanks for the post. Consider posting on the finished kitchens blog as well so we can find you months from now too (link below). What an incredible difference your new bs makes. Did you tile over the first one or remove it? It's a beautiful space and I hope you and your family enjoy it in the best of health! |

Just great. Love all your choices. I need three or four houses so I can have kitchens like so many posters here. ha. (well, and win the lottery). |

Oh my gosh it looks amazing!!! I freaking LOVE that brick behind the stove! You have done a wonderful job, even on the desk, you should be proud! |
Absolutely gorgeous! Love how bright your new space is. Enjoy the fruits of your labor! :) |
I will be putting a desk area in my kitchen for the same reason -- we need a place to drop off phones, keys, mail, etc. Don't we all need some sort of dumping ground? Our previous kitchen didn't have one, so we always had a messy little spot of counter with that stuff. Now we will have a dedicated place for charging, with a few drawers for items like paper clips, rubber bands, envelopes, stamps, and other detritus. It won't sit in the main part of the kitchen any more! Also, I love how you handles the ceilings -- we will be doing something similar to disguise a beam. |
Wow-tastic. Really successful choices :) |

Your new kitchen is absolutely stunning. Enjoy! |
B E A U T I F U L!!! I am so glad that you didn't get talked out your sweet desk----the window/plants make it so lovely! Beautiful choices all around, especially love your backsplash. Congrats!! |

Oh, I understand it now. Thanks for all of the photos. What are the dimensions of the your TV area, with the corner sectional? (PS - I love your granite!) |
dccurlygirl - the living room area is 10 ft along the tv wall by about 12 feet. The corner sectional is 2 love seats plus the corner. It's open to the dining room, so hard to define exactly the width of it. Thanks for the compliment on the granite! |
Wow! It looks really great. I especially live all the plants in the window! |

Cinjos, your kitchen is lovely! It's very warm and welcoming. I have just a few questions. Are you happy with your faucet? Also, is your bianco antico honed or polished? If honed, what did you use to seal it? Any problems with stains? Thanks so much and enjoy your kitchen for many years to come! |
