In your pictures, there is a picture of something full of lint and your caption says something about how much came out of the ducts.
Did you hire a company to do that, or is that something you did yourselves? I would like to have our ducts cleaned but dh thinks they won't be able to do more than clean a foot or two inside each duct, or if they stick a brush in there, that they will tear up the ducts. Our house smells musty and emits and unbelievable amount of dust for such a small house. I want an end to the dust and a fresh-smelling house - but I don't know who to call. Here, I'll go ahead and make the joke you are all thinking now. Who you gonna call? Dust busters! |

Marti, who knows what evil LURKS in the ducts of man.....THE SHADOW KNOWS. Truly it can be a frightening problem. Speaking as one who was on a 500 ton vessel (about 250 feet long) which had mold growing in the ductwork, and where everyone became sick, I know there can be problems to your health caused by such ducts. On the boats, they put the insulation INSIDE THE DUCTS and not outside. Disaster waiting to happen. We also had to replace the dryer duct, which was so heavy with goop and WATER, that it was all one person could do to drag it out of the boat. Other than plain old respiratory distress, it can lead to Legionaire's Disease, which is what they were worried about on the boat. When I left the employ of that company, they had replaced a lot of the ducting, but not all of it. What material is your ductpiping made of? Galvanized metal? Thin foil-like aluminum? If they roto-root the inside and the insulation is attached outside the ducting, it should not damage it too much. You may have to plan on being out of your house during this process though. Get the people who do this work to explain exactly what happens and what they do to remediate the problem. In the meantime, if nothing else, you can set a big pot of vinegar and water on the stove and humidify the house with the acetic acid of the vinegar. Just for good measure, put some cinnamon and cloves into it for an apple pie smell. Vinegar is a great germ killer, and I think you'd benefit from letting this work its way into your ducting. It won't remove the gloppety goop from inside the ducts--you'd be surprised what that looks like, it is unbelievably gross. Do you have a Serv-Pro that cleans up houses after fires and floods? Just an idea there, don't know if they do it or not, but they'd probably give you a lead. |

I hired a duct cleaning company. We bought the house sight unseen, and while relatives looked at it and sent a million high resolution photos, unfortunately they weren't in smellovision. Actually I did wonder why there were candles burning during the showing and soon found out why. When we got to town and had access to the house I knew immediately that I couldn't deal with the stink and would not be able to spend the first night there without something drastic happening. I have lots of animals and know what wet dogs smell like, but this was what smelled like ten years of dirty wet dog. I found the duct cleaning guys in the yellow pages and they fixed me right up. Here is a photo looking down into a cold air return before they cleaned. Here's the photo of what they sucked out of my ducts- It was almost 100% dog hair, with bits of insulation and cookie crumbs and everything else that had fallen down a register in the decades since they had been installed. I am unable to remember exactly but I think it cost something in the neighborhood of $300 and took them about four hours or so. They blocked off all the registers and sucked the main line with that huge and mighty vacuum unit that you see there- they wheeled it right into the basement and tapped into my main trunk line. Then they sent a motorized twisty snaking brush through all the ducts, sucked again, then ran the brush again with some sort of cover on it, then sucked again. Last they fogged the whole system with a mold killer of some sort and presto change-o my house smelled clean! I would recommend this to everyone!! |

Cearbhaill, that is AWESOME. Money WELL SPENT. |
I agree! That is much cheaper than a year's worth of candles. I have an air filter running 24/7 and still the house smells musty when I have been gone from it for a few days. I used to think it was because the house was shut up while we were gone, but the last time, I was gone and dh stayed here and the smell was the same. When we get through with the next leg of construction I am going to do this. Probably pointless to do it before ripping the side of the house off. |

Marti, come on back and tell us some more if you've gotten far enough to do the duct cleaning? |
Yes, I had the duct cleaning done. They didn't show us how much stuff came out. So far we can't tell any big difference with the musty smell in the house. I haven't been able to clean either, so don't really know if it is helping with the dust. I need to at least clean the bathtub so I can have a white background test area. |

cearbhaill- Thanks for sharing so much info! I think I'm going to try this after we finish our last two messy projects (drywall and whatnot). If it can get the stink out of our old house before we try to sell, it will be money well spent!! |

Once again the smaller homes forum is super helpful and timely! I have been in the E-room twice and through tons of specialists and tests in the last two weeks...we're beginning to think there may be a dust/mold issue in our house. I have never smelled it musty at all but my mom thinks she has smelled something. I'm going to look into the duct cleaning (house is 60 years old) as soon as our finances recover some from the dr bills. In the meantime though I'm super interested, Moccasin, in your vinegar idea...do you boil it for a long time? NOT to hijack this thread at all - Has anyone had any experience with the box air purifiers? My parents have one and have offered it but I read that they create a "smog" atmosphere that can be dangerous to athsmatics? |
- Posted by moccasinlanding (My Page) on Mon, Jul 26, 10 at 14:04
Enigma, sorry to hear you are having issues with asthma. Vinegar is one of the best cleaners for all sorts of things. When I use it as a deodorizer, I boil it with some water and then cinnamon and cloves to give an apple pie. Actually, I do not recommend hard BOILING. That might make a steam over your windows. What I do recommend is that you simmer this stuff. Please do not let it boil dry, because that would smell bad I'm sure. I have an air purifier that I bought from Austin online, and is I got the superduper model to remove the enzymes in bird dander, and dog and cat hair as well. The cleaner is on wheels and every day or so, you clean off the holes in the cover, all over the four sides. I have yet to clean the filter itself, and I've had it for about 6 months. I am not sure how much an air purifier for the whole house costs. Have you looked into a HEPA filter system? I'm not sure what a "box air purifier" is. Could it be what I have? Our house is air conditioned. We had so much dust from the construction and demolition before that, and sanding of the new plaster coatings, that everything in the house was in bad shape. I washed dishes daily even with just me in the house, filling up the washer with items covered in dust. It seemed to have no end. With a halt on our building projects, and the house closed up, the dust problem is not so bad any more. I still have some issues with bird fluff which rolls like dust bunnies into the corners, but not as bad as before. The Austin air purifier is located in the sun porch where two of my parrots stay. It is a help for sure, but does not totally remove all feather fluff. Maybe it gets the small particles though. With it and the window a/c unit in that room, which pulls a lot of white dander into its washable filter, I see a lot less in the rest of the house. See if the link below is the product type you mean. |

Moccasin, the type they have is "Alpine Air - purifier"...I might give it a try. We also are going to put cheesecloth in our grates to see if that cuts down on the dusties at all. I did try your vinegar simmer! I liked it so much I told my best friend who is doing it right now. We both love the way it smells and how healthy and fresh it makes the air seem, I actually love the smell of vinegar anyway (used to have to drink apple cider vinegar for health reasons) and it is so good for you and for the house and cleaning...I put a little vanilla extract in there with my cinnamon and some orange peel! I could easily do this every day, thanks for such a great tip...big fan! |
We have a Hunter air purifier. Dd's allergist recommended it. She was supposed to shut her down and turn it on at night. It has an ozone option and I turn that part off because I've heard ozone can harm the lungs. She didn't like the noise though. Sometimes I use it in our bedroom but I don't like the door shut at night because it seems to make the musty smell stronger. |

The "stealer" says the front end needs a lube...the book doesn't say anything about lubing the front end, like in the older trucks. So I think the stealer is wrong...correct me if that is not the case.
Having said that, is there anything we can do to extend the life of our front ends? (aside from not hitting potholes, etc, changing the shocks when worn out, beating them up on a dirt road). In other words, is there any preventive maintenance we can do?

The God of Nature: Incarnation and Contemporary Science
In This Series
Product Description
Knight here forges a third way of thinking about divine engagement with the world, beyond deism and theism. He sees God's intimate involvement with creation and history as implied in the reality of the incarnation and essentially confirming divine purpose in a kind of sacramental character to all events as they unfold in the world. On this basis, he brings fresh insight to the questions of providence, miracles, personal prayer, the virgin birth, and the ascension of Jesus.
Knight's work promises not to displace science, nor to plead for special exceptions on special occasions, but to see God as always active in the very warp and woof of the universe and its laws.
Christopher C. Knight is Senior Research Associate at the Von Hugel Institute, St. Edmund's College, University of Cambridge, England. He is author of Wrestling with the Divine, also in the Theology and the Sciences series.

Fees & Reservations
Entrance Fees for the Santa Monica Mountains National Park Service Lands: There are currently no entrance or exit fees for National Park Service (NPS) sites in Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area. Note: As of October 1, 2013, the NPS in Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area does not sell or issue any of the federal recreation lands passes. However, there is a charge for camping in the park and special park use permits. California State Parks, Santa Monica Mountains Conservancy, and other public parklands: There are many agencies that manage parkland in the Santa Monica Mountains besides the National Park Service. Because each site is managed differently, it is best to check with the specific land managing agency if there is a usage or parking fee. Click here to get a list of park partner web pages. Other National Park Service Units: Visit www.nps.gov to learn more about fees and reservation at specific parks. America the Beautiful Pass Series Starting January 1, 2007 the old Golden Age, Golden Eagle, and Golden Access Passes will be replaced with a new series of interagency passes called the America the Beautiful - National Parks and Federal Recreational Lands Pass. All National Parks Passes, Golden Eagle, Golden Eagle Hologram, Golden Access and Golden Age Passports will continue to be honored according to the provisions of the pass. Only paper Golden Age and Access Passports may be exchanged free of charge for new plastic passes. The National Park Service (NPS) no longer sells the federal lands passes at the Santa Monica Mountains Visitor Center. The federal lands passes, including versions for seniors, active military and the disabled, cover entrance fees at national parks and other federal lands. There is no fee to enter federal lands in the Santa Monica Mountains. Though you cannot purchase the federal lands passes in the Santa Monica Mountains, the federal lands passes can be purchased at Channel Islands National Park or at Angeles National Forest. For information on other methods of obtaining one of these passes, visit www.nps.gov/findapark/passes.htm America the Beautiful America the Beautiful America the Beautiful America the Beautiful |

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

U.S. defense, intelligence and political officials will be holding a
series of meetings in Israel this week focused on Iran. We know that
Washington is attempting to increase pressure on Iran, and such meetings
could very well be designed for psywar purposes to keep the Iranians off
balance and fearful of a military strike. Still, these are the types of
officials you would have at working meetings, and it*s our job to try and
figure out what the Israelis and Americans are actually working on, and if
a military strike could be in the cards. In addition to probing these
meetings, here are a few more places we need to be monitoring for clues:
- Lebanon * Iran*s IRGC has long been working on a contingency plan
using Hezbollah as one of its main militant assets in retaliation for such
a strike. As the war rhetoric has increased in the past couple weeks, have
there been any corresponding shifts in Hezbollah activities?
- Washington, D.C. * Are we seeing shifts, particularly among
Democrats in the U.S. Congress, calling for harsher action against Iran?
What exactly does the U.S. administration mean when it says it could
extend a security umbrella to Iran*s adversaries?
- Russia * We*ve been watching and waiting to see if the Russians
will play the Iran card to influence its own negotiations with Washington.
Let*s see if Russian support for Iran goes beyond rhetoric this time.
- Iran * an internal power struggle is proving to be a major
distraction for Tehran, but the Iranian government has also been strangely
quiet given the war rhetoric that has been circulating. Are we seeing any
signs of Iran reaching out to the West behind the scenes in attempt to
deflect this pressure? How seriously are they taking these threats?
- Are we getting any indications that Hezbollah has more recently
shifted in their operations to
- Israel and Russia * The Israelis have a special working
relationship with the Russians. If Israel needs to ensure Russia doesn*t
provide threatening support to the Iranians, what can Israel threaten in
the former Soviet periphery to grab Moscow*s attention? Look for Israel*s
interactions with places like Azerbaijan, Georgia and Ukraine especially.
- Turkey -- If the United States and Israel were formulating
military plans against Iran, the Turks would not be sitting comfortably.
Watch Ankara*s interactions with the Americans, Russians, Iranians and
The Russian president will be meeting with his Afghan, Pakistani and Tajik
counterparts in Dushanbe this week. This is one of many ways Russia
intends to highlight its leverage in the region as the United States
continues to struggle with the war in Afghanistan. Watch for shifts in how
the Central Asian states deal with the United States following visits like
this. Also keep an eye on Uzbekistan. Russia*s military build-up in the
Caucasus is sending Tashkent*s paranoia through the root, but what are the
Uzbeks* option in countering Russian encirclement?
Moldova holds elections July 29. Normally we wouldn*t pay that much
attention to something like this, but given U.S.-Russian frictions in the
region, these elections have the potential to evolve into a standoff
between Russia and Romania * a key NATO ally on the former Soviet
China and the United States will hold strategic and economic talks in
Washington this week in what could well define the strategic direction of
U.S.-Chinese relations under the Obama administration. This is the time
for Beijing and Washington to lay it all out on the table, from climate
change to North Korean antics to Uighur unrest. The economic talks are
likely to be the most revealing -- China wants to export its way out of
this recession, but the U.S. priority in these talks is to get Beijing to
figure out other ways to boost demand at home. We*ll also need to see if
China uses this meeting as an opportunity to extract concessions from the
US on clean-technology deals as negotiations are bound to intensify in the
lead-up to the December Copenhagen summit on climate change.

OMG this was a great buy. It came lightning fast (only a few business days), and looked beautiful once assembled. The quality is great, and the pictures are spot-on. Here's the trick for easy assembly: After you have the frame all together (it's only 4 screws!), and you are about to tackle setting up the slats, be sure and put together the WHOLE horizontal row, then snap it onto place, starting in the middle. If you snap in the middle double plastic cap first, you'll struggle trying to get the ends in properly. Once I figured this out (the instructions weren't super-clear), it was a breeze. It takes a little muscle to pop in the plastic caps that hold the slats in place, but if you use the heel of your hand and try and do one click at a time, it's a lot easier. The hardware (2 allen wrenches, and 4 screws/bolts) is tucked in with the wooden feet, which came preassembled with the washers already in place. I almost tossed it in the trash, since it is such a small hardware kit. The bed is pretty low, since it's just a mattress on the slats, so I might put a box spring back in, once I have someone to help lift it with me. My first houseguest to try it out will be here in a week, so I'll update the review after a trial run. This is a beautiful bed in my guest room, and had I known how pretty it was, I probably would have ordered it for my master suite. Don't hesitate to buy this bed, you won't regret it.
My only quibble about this great-looking bed is with the slats that hold up the mattress. Instead of the tried, true and easy way of having two sets of slats held together by fabric that just sit on the frame, this bed has a rather cumbersome way of installing them: all the slats have to be installed individually, into some plastic holders that attach the the bed... i think it will be difficult to take apart if I ever need to move this bed; seems like the plastic holders might break if one tries to remove them once installed. Thus, my rating will probably drop to 3 or 2 stars (depending on the frustration level) if I ever need to move the bed.
The bed has a sleek modern look, quite plain actually. I have had it for 2 months now and it is very sturdy. It does not look cheap. The bed is a good height, not too low like many platforms are. If you like how this bed looks in the photo go ahead and make the purchase. Photo is a true representation of this bed. It was delivered quite fast and came with all of the appropriate pieces. The bed is fun and different, I have dark stained hardwood floors and it's a great contrast. I am very pleased with this online purchase.
This was a full size bed for my teenage daughter. Light and strong. Easy to assemble. One guy's review really helped with installation. The spaces between slots are too wide to put a memory foam mattress without a bunk board ( coasts about 100 buck and is not visible from the top at all). I am very happy about the color and simple look. The head piece is not tall at all as I was afraid and you can hand a large picture or design piece above it. My daughter is able easily to move the bed from the wall if need to make a bed as it smoothly slides on the pergo floors. Just what I was looking for. Delivered also in 2-3 days. But as usual the delivery people overstock uses are not concerned where they leave the boxes, thanks got we have safe neiborhood. Highly recommend the product.
Got this for my daughter's first NYC apartment. Looks beautiful. The assembly was easy but spent about 30 mins going through all the boxes and wrapping looking for the plastic washers for the legs because I couldn't find them---only to discover they were already on the legs! Would recommend highly.
The item is very sturdy, very stylish look good in my room. Easy to assemble, took me less than 1hr. Instructions were easy to follow. Couple parts came missing but overstock took great care of that! Great quality for the money. Would greatly recommend!
the bed itself was pretty easy to assemble(see other reviews for tips on getting the bottom rungs to fit) and looks and feels like a higher end item. Looks like real leather. Very low-a box spring would make it better, but isn't required. Only issue was delivery- multiple large boxes, missing pieces(TINY little brackets were missing) and the only way to remedy was to have a whole new shipment sent, which would be billed if we didn't return all the other boxes immediately. In the end the brackets magically arrived, as did a whole new shipment of 4 large boxes, the happy UPS guy took them back. Ultimately I'll say, great bed, great result, but the online "chat" help from overstock was OK but obviously off-shore and scripted and a pain to get through.(they kept telling me to drop the return off at the closest post office or UPS store- it's a double bed...not likely!) Still, bed was so nice i would buy this way again.
Wow! I absolutely love this purchase. I bought this for my son's room. It has a modern, high-end look. The piece is very sturdy, well made and looks much more expensive than what I paid. It even works well in smaller size bedrooms. It is low to the ground and people can sit easily when just hanging out.
expensive lookiing, comfortable. looks better in personn. the material is much stronger then i thought, great buy. thanks Overstock :)
Excellent product for the money. Good quality solid wood parts...slats work well. Will accommodate a high quality pillowtop mattress - i.e. 15 - 16" without appearing out of proportion. We bought it for our 5 year old -- smooth vinyl (leatherette) edging makes it good for small kids - no hard edges. Also the low profile height makes small room appear more roomy. No problems with delivery and setup. Overall we would recommend.

I can see the headlines now … Celebrity chef Bobby Flay sizzles in the 'Ville … Dame Dorothy grills Oaks competition.
While the possibility of having the famous cuisinier celebrating a Kentucky Oaks win for the world to see might sound like a tasty proposition, the feat of Todd Pletcher training consecutive Pennsylvania-breds to victory in one of America's most important races for fillies could be the even more fantastic sounding side story.
Of course, I am getting ahead of myself. It's still three months from the Oaks, and the horse has to do most everything right from now until then to be rewarded with a blanket of lilies. Not to mention that Dame Dorothy has only a maiden victory, and today's optional claiming win under her belt, but anyone who has seen those two performances knows full well that Flay and Pletcher have something serious brewing in this daughter of Bernardini.
An impressive debut victory going seven panels on the main track at Aqueduct on Cigar Mile Day was a mere aperitif to whet the appetite for Dame Dorothy connoisseurs. Today, we witnessed a little more of what this young filly has under the hood.
In a race originally scheduled for the turf, Dame Dorothy was one of three promising fillies entered for main track only today at Gulfstream Park. With the Florida rains yielding a sloppy main course, their connections got their wish, and the race was switched to dirt. Sent off as the 5-2 third choice, Dame Dorothy broke well and raced well of the rail into the first turn of the 1 1/16 mile affair. Moving up effortlessly under Javier Castellano, the bay filly secured a comfortable stalking position behind the pacesetting Danalin through six furlongs in '11 and change.
When asked for a little on the far turn, Double D gave a lot. The early leader quickly became a foregone conclusion, and it was just a matter if race favorite, and Golden Rod runner-up, Bird Maker could offer any challenge from behind. The answer was a resounding no, as Dame Dorothy ran away and hid down the stretch. Streaking to the wire, she got there first by a dozen lengths in 1:44.26.
Some may say that the 'off the turf' nature of the race, and the speed favoring nature of the sloppy track make this a hard race to get overly excited about. While those factors did play into the final margin, I say no, this filly is for real. She coasts around the track like an expensive sports car, and will be a graded stakes winner before too long, in my opinion.
For what it's worth, I still hold high hopes for the distant runner-up, Bird Maker, who clearly was at a tactical disadvantage today. Look for her to make some noise down the road, as well. But today, is all about Dame Dorothy.
Discount today's performance at your own mistake, because this filly owned by celebrity chef, Bobby Flay, and trained by celebrity trainer, Todd Pletcher, is much more than smoke and mirrors. Look for Flay to be in attendance at Churchill Downs on the first Friday in May. Dame Dorothy is a Kentucky Oaks filly.

Suprising Financial Lessons From A Cruise
you ever tell yourself, "Some day I will…" ?
going 16 straight months in my new entrepreneurial life without taking a single
day off, I slammed head first into a mental wall.
So I
sought help from business strategist Alexis Martin Neely. I figured we'd dive
right into my business model, but one of the first things Alexis asked was what
I did for fun. Silence. Terrified that if I slowed down for a nano-second
in this economy I would plunge into the deep dark abyss of permanent career mal-function,
the only word that I could manage to utter was a feeble… "Work?"
So Alexis
asked me what long-term dream I'd fulfill after all this work was done and I'd
finally "arrived." No hesitation. "Take
a luxury cruise," I immediately blurted out. That was something I'd
fantasized about for over 15 years but never felt I could afford to take the
time off to actually do. With the encouragement of my wonderful husband
and Alexis, I finally went on a Caribbean cruise.
On the
enjoyment scale I'd give the cruise a 5, but on the life lesson scale it was an
absolute 10. Here's what I learned and how it can help YOU spend your hard earned money
& time more mindfully.
Experiences give you the ultimate
bang for the buck. The average age of my fellow
travelers was roughly 75 (by comparison, I'm 40 years old). Many had climbed to
the top of their respective industries. When I chatted with them about the
most memorable moments during their working years – time and again they spoke
of simple experiences: a good meal, a memorable outing, a daily ritual
that brought them joy. Not one mentioned the acquisition of THINGS.

Printing Scams Make Their Rounds on Web —Michelson
February 2010Perhaps one printer summed it up best in an Internet post to a fellow owner who nearly fell victim to a printing scam: "Keep your eyes open, and remember that if it smells like sh*t, looks like sh*t...it will taste like sh*t, too." Do you know of anyone (yourself included) who's been duped by similar fraud? We'd love to hear about it to pass along, so the same misfortune doesn't happen to somebody else. Rest assured; all names will be changed to protect the innocent, and to not add injury to insult.
In these tough times, with printers struggling to fill idle press time, and thus more likely to bid on and produce a job that comes in over the Web from an unknown party, it's disheartening to hear of e-mail scammers targeting our industry. After all, it's hard enough to please finicky graphic artists let alone worry about falling prey to scam artists. PI

I ended up with a packet of Hungarian yellow wax instead of hungarian hot wax....didn't know there were lots of hungarian peppers about.....
How different are these peppers? Are they close or should I get more seeds? thx for any info! |
Follow-Up Postings:
t-bird: My guess is that you do have Hungarian Hot Wax Peppers. There seems to be a lot of confusion between Hungarian Hot Wax and Sweet Banana Peppers. I doubt that you got Sweet Banana Peppers but you could have. I do not think there is two types of Hungarian "XXXXX" Wax Peppers. I think that if they are indeed Hungarian "XXXX" Peppers, then they are actually Hungarian Hot Wax Peppers. I could be wrong. As I say, there is a lot of confusion with these types of peppers. Either way, you will probably have a pepper that is very close to what you are expecting except that it will be anywhere from a 0-3 on the heat scale. If you are really concerned, then find another source with exactly what you want. The cost isn't that much compared to growing them for 6 months to find out they are not what you wanted. If it isn't that big of deal, then give them a shot and you may be pleasantly surprised. |

I agree with Bruce. My Hungarian was labeled "Hungarian Wax" - and it is both
Josh |
Names for peppers are all over the place. Jalapenos range from almost no heat to much hotter than the average person expects. There are probably dozens of Hungarian Wax peppers. I'd say you got what you were looking for as long as they don't say 'sweet' or banana peppers. You could look around and buy many types of hungarian wax peppers and settle on a personal favorite. Of course, that could be done over many seasons. Always something new to try. |
Thanks all! I will just give these a try then, packet says "Heirloom - a medium hot old world favorite" I'm not too picky about heat levels, a bit warm or a bit hot, I like both. If only warm, I just add more... I was planning to use these in stir fries and curries, salsa too.....so I can just add more to get the right amount of heat for our preferences... Thanks again! You guys are great!!! |
t-bird: I think you will find they are what you are looking for. If they have any heat at all, then they are almost assuredly not Sweet Banana Peppers. I bought some seeds last year that were labeled "Banana Peppers". They turned out to be Hot Hungarian Wax and were on the lower end of the heat scale but still had heat. I used them to slice and pickle for sandwiches. If yours say heirloom, then they should be true hot Hungarian wax in the 2-3 of 10 scale in hotness. I am sure they will work fine in salsa's and stir fries if you are not a fire eater like some on this list. |

After A Breakup Who Gets The Dog?
By Sara Brady
While state legislators in Michigan and Wisconsin have recently introduced laws to bridge the gap between family member and possession for couples arguing over pets, most U.S. states still have no firm rules about the issue, says Favre. "Some judges feel there's no law that allows them to take into account the best interest of the animal, and they are constrained to do anything but treat them as property." Despite that constraint, pet custody cases have spanned the globe in recent years, popping up everywhere from South Africa to Australia and China, where a court ruled earlier this year that a woman could visit her Pekingese, Beibei, twice a week if she pays support to her ex-husband. Pets are more likely to be treated as property by courts if they are particularly valuable or unique, Hennenhoefer says, such as a purebred or show animal.
For pet owners moving on with their lives, introducing a new flame to a pet, as Gyllenhaal did with Witherspoon, can hurt the ex even more than the new boyfriend or girlfriend. "My ex-wife is seeing someone else now, so that upsets me that he's stepping in and taking my place with the cats," Ryan says. "It's ridiculous, but it's true. I feel like they've got a stepfather now, and I don't really like that."

Last Line of Defence - Mature Multi-gaming
Last Line Of Defence is a Mature Multi-Gaming group that has been around since May 2003. We are a mostly EU timezone group with the odd US member lurking around the shadows.
Our first game was Planetside (the only MMOFPS) which was produced by sony. Since then we have been active in other MMO's such as EvE Online, **** and Lord Of The Rings Online as well as other games such as Battlefield 2142. We have now moved into Star Trek Online and are looking to increase our ranks in what is now our new home.

Georgia nabs Russian 'spy ring,' angering Moscow
Georgia on Friday accused 13 people, including four Russians, of spying for Russia after a four-year investigation.
Georgian Interior Ministry/Reuters
Georgia on Friday accused 13 people, including four Russian citizens, of passing information to Russia's GRU military spy agency during the brief August 2008 war between the two countries.
Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Grigory Karasin immediately denounced the Georgian claims as "a political farce." The charges, rumors about which first started circulating a week ago, have struck many as bizarre. But most analysts see at least some truth in the charges, though they caution that the broader domestic and regional dynamics involved must be factored in.
"Of course spies exist, but there is also a propaganda side to this," says Alexander Iskanderyan, director of the independent Caucasus Institute in Yerevan, Armenia. "Georgian authorities constantly utilize Russia as an 'enemy image' and try to tar their domestic political opponents with this brush. You have to take these stories with a grain of salt."
Four-year investigation
In a press conference announcing the arrests Friday, Georgian officials said the investigation into the alleged spy ring had been going on "for years."

India court jails 31 for life over 2002 Gujarat riots
A court in India has jailed 31 people for life for killing dozens of Muslims during religious riots in the western state of Gujarat nine years ago.
They were found guilty of murder, attempted murder, arson, rioting and criminal conspiracy after 33 people were burned alive in a building.
Another 42 mostly Hindu defendants were acquitted for lack of evidence.
More than 1,000 people, mostly Muslims, died when riots erupted after a train fire killed 60 Hindu pilgrims in 2002.
It was one of India's worst outbreaks of religious violence in recent years.
Muslims were blamed for starting the train fire, and Hindu mobs eager for revenge went on the rampage through Muslim neighbourhoods in towns and villages across Gujarat in three days of violence following the incident.
Fierce debateThe special court dealing with the case sat near Sardarpura village, where the 33 Muslims sought shelter in a small house on the night of 28 February, 2002.
The victims had gathered there to get away from the rioters, who set the building alight. The bodies of 28 people were found at the scene, with five others dying later from their injuries.
Wednesday's verdicts are significant because they relate to one of nine key incidents in the Gujarat riots that are being probed by an independent Special Investigating Team (SIT).
The SIT was set up in 2008 following a Supreme Court directive.
The investigation into the killings at the village of Sardarpura is the first of these cases in which convictions have been secured.
The guilty verdicts will come as a boost to the SIT which has been criticised for the slow pace of its investigations and for being too closely associated with Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi.
Human rights group say that the convictions of so many people for involvement in religious violence is unprecedented in India.
There are more than 2,000 cases related to the rioting pending in various courts in Gujarat, but the nine cases being probed by the SIT are the ones which are being watched most closely.
Those convicted on Wednesday can appeal to a higher court.
The Gujarat government is led by Hindu nationalist Chief Minister Narendra Modi, who has been accused by rights groups - and a senior police officer in April - of tacitly supporting the rioters.
He denies the allegations but has never apologised for the riots.
Responsibility for the train fire has been the subject of fierce debate between Hindus and Muslims.
In February a special court in Gujarat found 31 people guilty of setting fire to the passenger train in the town of Godhra. It acquitted 63 other people of conspiracy and murder.
The mostly Hindu pilgrims on the train were returning from the town of Ayodhya, itself a flashpoint for communal unrest after a mosque was razed in 1992 by Hindu hardliners. That led to separate riots that also killed thousands of predominantly Muslim people.
An inquiry commission set up three years ago by the Gujarat state government into the 2002 riots said that the burning of the train had been a "conspiracy".
It examined more than 1,000 witnesses during a six-year period, found that 140 litres of petrol had been purchased as part of what it said had been a conspiracy to burn the train carriage.
That commission also exonerated Mr Modi over the riots that followed the blaze.
In 2005, however, a federal government inquiry took a different view, concluding that the train fire had been an accident - probably started by people cooking in one of the carriages - not the result of an attack.
The Sardarpura killings case is one of nine singled out for special investigation by India's Supreme Court - in 2003 its judges castigated the Gujarat authorities for not delivering justice to victims.

How do you know that in the darkness, these officers, seeing a vehicle; -that is within the realm of a matching the description of the suspect vehicle (dark colored pickup), and had very recently been told that the suspect vehicle may have been spotted and heading their direction.
He was moving away from Torrance and distances/traffic could not have had him at both locations within the time frame of the shooting and the Torrance incident.
I was on my way to work listening to the news broadcasts as this was unfolding. They reported that the Torrance incident was "unrelated to the Dorner search"
Yes, I know the news media often gets it wrong, either intentionally or through ignorance, but they get their information from the PD and there would have been no reason for the news agencies to report that it was unrelated if it was not fed to them.
At the same time, the news was (correctly) reporting that the vehicle was a Gray Nissan Titan. The Caltrans freeway signs were reporting it as a Blue pickup.
Thankfully, the Torrance incident was the only police-involved shooting of a civilian. As on edge as all police agencies in SoCal were, this could have been very bad. It was bad enough that Dornan killed those he did.

Results tagged "East Thames"
East Thames is launching its 56 home development, Fairwater, this weekend.
The scheme, which includes 16 shared ownership homes, 12 private sale and the rest social housing, is in the heart of the Isle of Dogs.
It's due for completion in October this year.
Construction of a 400 home development on the east of the Isle of Dogs will start this summer after it received approval from the Greater London Assembly.
New Union Wharf got the green light from Tower Hamlets Council last month and passed its final hurdle last week.
Residents of an Isle of Dogs estate have won a small victory over drug use under their noses.
Occupants of New Union Wharf have complained of persistent drug problems on the estate for several months, with youths dealing and smoking cannabis outside and from an untaxed car.
Families affected by an arson attack at their Tiller Road block are still waiting to return home more than a week later.
Landlord East Thames put the occupants of five flats into hotel accommodation at Excel's Premier Inn a day after fire broke out at Hammond House on August 2.

"I made this recipe for a holiday party and they were a hit. I changed it a little, by coating the wings in the sauce before they went into the oven. Also, I used Frank's Hot Sauce, diluted by about 25% with tomato sauce, because I prefer less spice. After they came out of the oven, I coated them again.

demand for psyche NP's
0Sep 8, '04 by kerri212Can anyone offer me any insight as to what the demand is for psychiatric NP's? I live in the northeast. I have taken an online class for my master's but I'm not sure if it's really worth pursuing. I am particularly interested in child and adolescent NP. Thanks!
0Sep 17, '04 by HukilauQuote from kerri212Assuming you already are an RN with a BA or BS, consider getting your Master's in something else. I got an MA in Counseling and that combined with the RN and a BA in Group Dynamics gives me a more in-depth understanding of the field than any MSN degree could have. I believe an advanced degree in Psychiatric Nursing is so narrow in scope it's only really useful if your goal is administration. If you want to be a practitioner there are better choices.Can anyone offer me any insight as to what the demand is for psychiatric NP's? I live in the northeast. I have taken an online class for my master's but I'm not sure if it's really worth pursuing. I am particularly interested in child and adolescent NP. Thanks!
0Sep 18, '04 by PRNMEDSI know three coleagues who have recently earned their NP in Psych. All three are still working at least part time at their old position (two have administrative jobs) and our using their NP part time. One works with a private psychologist 1 or 2 days a week, the other works at an outpatient clinic. The 3rd person has yet to find a place where they can utilize theier NP.
Not sure if that really answers your question - but it seems to me that having the NP is no garuntee of a an immediate job where it can be used. I am told NP is the comming trend (cheaper then Pyschiatrists etc.) but for right now I think its difficult to find a niche and get started. Good luck with it if you do decide to do it. -
0Sep 23, '04 by lucianneIf it's really what you want to do, then go for it. I have no idea what the demand is like in the northeast, but here in the midwest there is a real need for people who are willing to work with children and adolescents. The only advanced practice nurses I know who are having difficulty finding jobs/partnerships are those who are in women's health because so many ob-gyns are dropping obstetrics.
The subspecialties of psych APRNs are family psych/mental health NP or adult psych/mental health NP and child and adolescent P/MH CNS or adult P/MH CNS. In some states, CNSs do not have prescriptive authority while in other states they do. I'm in a program where there is no difference between the education for CNSs or NPs in psych. I started out planning to take the exam for child and adolescent CNS, but have decided to do family psych NP instead because 1) some states do not allow CNSs to have prescriptive authority and we may move to one of those states, and 2) I like the more holistic option of being able to treat the whole family.
If you are an NP, you may be able to do quite well by simply doing medication management for non-prescribing therapists while you build a private practice. You could join a pediatric or family practice or join a practice with a psychiatrist. Community mental health is another option. There's also a trend for NP only practices. I don't agree at all that an advance practice degree will only suit you for administration or that it is narrow in scope. I think that having one person who can manage meds and provide therapy is a great advantage (assuming you're not in a program that doesn't teach NPs as much about therapy as it does CNSs). I can never keep it straight who will reimburse whom for what and it is different in different places, so that is one consideration.
good luck with whatever you decide

Demon Snow Machine Stomp Pad
Hate it.
Don't buy this. It blows. I've never had an issue with a stomp before in my life. I applied it to a clean dry surfaced and it sat for 3 days before it going on a mountain. The little side bracket things were just a joke. Fell off the second snow got on my board, which really wasn't that big of a deal I guess. The thing that makes this stomp pad suck so much is the fact that it's small. The spikes barely do a damn thing and it's hard to try and keep in clean. I hate this thing can't wait to get a new one.

Awesome board.
I bought one at the end of last season, and it was the best decision of my life! Only had the chance to ride it a handful of times and it was simply wonderful. I was not a huge fan of the ride on groomed surfaces but anything off trail is just amazing. Not to mention it's Arbor, never gonna ride another brand agian.

It's a blessing for us all that there are quite a few excellently scented red Hybrid Teas around. I don't know which one this is, perhaps someone else does. Some possibilities that come to mind are 'Mister Lincoln', 'Oklahoma', 'Crimson Glory', 'Chrysler Imperial', 'Mirandy', 'Francis Dubreuil'/'Barcelona' (two names for one rose).

Hi! Looks a lot like Mr. Lincoln. If it has very long stems, heavy rose fragrance and perfectly shaped buds, it might be Mr. Lincoln. Mr. Lincoln was named after the president visited Europe, in his honor. It's one of my favorite roses !~ |

I'm writing at the moment with a character who has no recollection of anything before the beginning of the story, which includes how to talk. She also can't write, aside from vague misplaced words that will jump into her head so to speak. I have found that the man she is travelling with can't really converse with her very well, aside from asking yes no questions, which gets quite... I dunno, repetative. I'm just wondering if there is a way to make it read better. Like... Is there a better way of getting her to communicate. Any suggestions would be great
Try acting her yourself, and get your nearest and dearest to ask you the questions... the wealth of gestures, of facial expressions, eye movements, as well as picking up objects, can speak volumes.
Some semi-random thoughts, less about means of communication, more about how you tell the story. Feel free to ignore them. If you find a series of questions with yes or no as the answer becoming boring, most readers will do so to. You may wish to give a relatively short example of this, to let the reader see the process, before focusing on one or other of the character's thoughts of the process and the knowledge their gaining (the man by hearing her answers, the woman by analysing why the man is asking the questions he is). So the first thing you have to do is decide who is narrating. If your narrator is an authorial voice, you will be have to do what Boneman is suggesting, cataloguing (though, one hopes, not at length) the various ways in which the woman is expressing herself. The same is true if your narrator is the man, though you would then be able to let the reader know what he knows, which may be a lot more interesting than the raw interrogation. If the woman is the narrator, the various physical reactions (some of which may be involuntary) would be more difficult to relate without making her very aware of herself, possibly unnaturally so. I'm going to assume that, at the moment, the woman is the your narrator, as only she could know about the words popping into her head. (To be the narrator, her internal use of language must be far more developed than her means of expressing them.) So what does she know and what does she want to? Off the top of my head, she'd be asking, amongst other things: Who am I? Where am I? How did I get here? Who is this man? Does he know me? Can I trust him? How far can I trust him? Why can't I remember? Have I had an accident or have I a medical condition? Did someone do this to me? Did he do this to me? Her internal dialogue is likely to be far more interesting than a series of questions, particularly if the man appears to be a stranger. As mentioned before, his questions would be useful: not only giving her an indication of her situation, but also punctuating and informing her speculations.
Sounds like the story (or parts of it) could be about the process of discovering how to communicate. Maybe he learns what some of her gestures could mean, and over time they learn how to understand each other, and forge a friendship that way. I'm not sure writing from her point of view would work. If she can't write or speak, can she even put words to her thoughts? If not, then the point of view will not work. And if she does understand her thoughts, then is her inability to speak/write due to a physiological condition -- trauma to the left hemisphere? That needs to be made clear.
Yes, I agree with slack -- I wasn't sure how to think about the question because I didn't know how much she understood. If she's forgotten how to form spoken language that's one thing -- and presumaby she understands the way in which languages work and words are used to symbolise things (you know, the whole thing about the word 'dog' never having bitten anyone). Then she could be using gestures etc. to communicate pretty complicated ideas or drawing things in the dirt with a stick. Presumably in this case the issue is with expression of ideas rather than generating them -- sort of like someone who has had a stroke? I believe that in real life articulating things is normally the problem (although I'm basing that on 15 second conversation with my husband and I didn't explain the whole context). If she's forgotten language completely, though, then how is she thinking? I don't know how language and thought are connected -- but I think they might be. For example, in 1984 language is assumed to shape not only your perception of the world but your ability to think. So by changing language, the government changes people's ability to think rebellious thoughts. I know 1984 isn't a psychology/ lingustics text and no doubt theories about this have moved on a bit since the 1940s, but it's a nice illustration of the idea that language defines thought. If she has no recollection of anything that's one thing -- like amnesia -- but I think people with amnesia normally remember how to talk because that's not a memory as such, it's a skill repeated so often that it has become automatic -- like they remember how to walk and eat with a fork. But this is magic, so that works OK for me that she would lose language but retain the ability to do other stuff. If she knows nothing of anything before a certain point then I guess she's basically being born again and anything she thinks has to be at a very instinctive level - so there's nothing to say she shouldn't be in a forest with this man because that's the only reality she has ever known - that's what she's been born to. In answer to your question -- I think she's forgotten how to *produce* language, right? Because she understands the man enough to answer yes or no. So she can sign, and he can be teaching her language again. If she once had language then presumably its a case of reminding her rather than starting afresh and she should pick up the basics pretty quickly. If she can't articulate it then signing or pictures is a good way to go - though I agree that focusing on the details of the communication is not as interesting as what they say. If you'd like to know more about this then you could look at stuff on how non-speaking people/ people with complex communication needs communicate -- there's established signing language (e.g. makaton) and also pictograms which are used to help people express their thoughts. Sorry - that's an essay. (Disclaimer -- I don't really know what I'm talking about, but these are questions that occured to me when I was reading your bit above -- and someone else might know the answers...)
OK.... Going from comments I think it may help people if I give a bit more information. I am writing from her point of view, though it is third person point of view (I've drawn a blank as to what to call that, haha) She remembers what words sound like, and what they mean, but she is unable to actually speak them. So she understands everything said to her. The way I have him talking to her at the moment, he will start trying to make conversation, then remember she can't talk, so he'll talk to himself instead, sort of like he's correcting himself. And she mostly will analyse what he is saying, and how it is being said. I'm thinking, as has been suggested above, that I will have him teach her either to use sign language or write (although this will be more inconvenient, so probably the former not the latter). In previous stories my writing style is very dialogue heavy, and I think that is why I have been struggling a little. But I always tend to sort of act things out in my head before I write them out. So definitely do so with actions as well, I just don't wanna overwhelm people with descriptions of the way she moves, cause I imagine that will even end up quite repetitive. I ended up ranting a little... haha. But thank you all for the help, and any other suggestions are helpful.
About five years ago I worked on a film about a device that contained a bar code reader, internal memory for a thousand sound bites (normally half words and half phrases), loudspeaker, and microphone. Associated with a book of pictures this could enable patients incapable of articulating to communicate quite complex concepts, albeit slowly. Amplified with hand sgnals - not the sophisticated ones for International Sign Language but "stop, I've understood" or "what?", which evolve naturally - and body or facial clues (although most of those who have lost speech are handicapped in facial muscle control) I've watched confident chats with just occasional 'going round the houses' to add a missing concept.
