I saw this sweet black linen at the local fabric shoppe in our town in China and knew I had to make something out of it! I have a divine little trench pattern and thought it would be perfect for this stiffish black linen. I changed my mind as soon as the idea for this one shouldered lipstick red button backed LBD idea came to me. I made a pattern out of an old 80's computer print sheet first (which my husband couldn't stand because of the absurd colors and shapes on it!), but I worked on this dress over about a day and a half and was so excited by it that I'm not sure I remembered to eat or drink… I Love the way it turned out. I took these pictures to show my family but intended to take more artistic looking ones upon return to the states. I didn't count on being busy until my baby bump makes this dress look… well, a bit more maternity! (Ironically the front dart makes for a very easy maternity shift dress!) Perhaps once I get my figure back I'll take nicer pictures but now, from a place far far away from my Chinese living room, these pictures look PERFECT. Seeing that piece of home, that room so familiar brings me so much joy and homesickness at the same time!
Black stiff Linen, Red lipstick colored shiny round buttons… (I bought enough that I made two into earrings to wear with it at my brother in law's rehearsal dinner!)

Entrance fees waived at Dinosaur for National Park Week
Wednesday, April 17, 2013
Craig Dinosaur National Monument is waiving its entrance fees from Monday to April 26 in celebration of National Park Week, which is celebrated annually by national parks across the U.S.
Dinosaur officials also announced Tuesday in a news release that they are kicking off the annual celebration early with a guided hike of the 1.2-mile Fossil Discovery Trail at 10 a.m. Saturday.
"Spring is a great time to visit Dinosaur National Monument," Superintendent Mary Risser said in the release. "Even with the recent cold temperatures and snow, wildflowers like phlox and paintbrush are beginning to bloom along the Sound of Silence Trail.
"You can enjoy gazing at the wall of dinosaur bones in the Quarry Exhibit Hall before our peak summer visitation arrives."
The Quarry Visitor Center and the Quarry Exhibit Hall, which features the wall of dinosaur fossils, are open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily. The visitor center and the hall are on the Utah side of the monument.
On the Moffat County side, the Harpers Corner Road — a scenic 32-mile, one-way drive that leaves U.S. Highway 40 about 2 miles east of the town of Dinosaur — is open, according to the release. The road provides access to numerous trails, views of the Green and Yampa River canyons and wildlife viewing opportunities.
"Bighorn sheep, mule deer and other animals are bearing young," Risser said in the release. "Birds are returning to their summer nesting sites."
The Canyon Visitor Center, at the start of the Harpers Corner Road, is open Saturdays and Sundays.
National Park Week at Dinosaur concludes April 27 with activities in celebration of National Junior Ranger Day. At 9 a.m., Cub Scout Troop 1442 will conduct a flag raising ceremony at the Quarry Visitor Center.
Games and activities geared toward families will follow from 10 a.m. to noon at the Quarry Exhibit Hall.
For more information about National Park Week, visit www.nationalparkweek.org. For more information about Dinosaur National Monument, call 435-781-7700 or visit www.nps.gov/dino.

Dare to Discover
Gift Ideas
Tingling fresh spruce. Invigorating frosted elderberries. Seductive smoky birch. Warm bergamot. Bright eucalyptus. Velvety lavender. Spicy cinnamon. Prized balsamic frankincense. Lush moss.
Summer Romance
Congratulations, Thymes, you have successfully bottled sunset on the lake. The whispering of birch leaves in the evening breeze, damp moss and fresh earth still warm from the afternoon, the crackle of a fire in anticipation of twilight... it's all there. I will permanently have this candle on my porch.

Burst of Indian Summer
Firewood, early morning fog, squash and pumpkins. Here in New England, the seasonal shift from summer to fall is significant. It is the time of year when end of summer olive-green leaves ignite to brilliant crimson, burnt russet and rich gold. There are very few fragrances that evoke this transition like Blue Spruce and Elderberry. The fragrance is modern and fresh with a blend of warm woods and spice. It has quickly become our signature scent for autumn and Thanksgiving. The fragrance is vibrant and original. It is my favorite Thymes fragrance.
Frosted Autumn
Like a bonfire in the fall, this woodsy fragrance captures the surroundings. Like coming home on a cool Michigan day for Thanksgiving and all the trimmings, the fragrance is in the air. I enjoy this fragrance. It is rich. It's like a potpourri of autumn, from colored leaves to cool crisp air. It's not just one fragrance, it is many. I love it! It is fragranced to appeal to all of the senses as described in the description. Beautiful.
New favorite
I love this scent. I wish you would make bath products in ittoo. I want everything around me to smell like this!
Northern Delight
This scent is what the nature trails of Michigan are all about! While designing our home from scratch, my husband and I knew that this would be the memory we wanted our out-of-state guests to carry home with them, even if they didn't have a chance to hike or bike with us on a crisp autumn morning!

Kasbah Trail Departing 16th April
I'm booked on the Kasbah Trail trip on the 16th April and was wondering if there was anyone else out there that had also booked this trip. I'm a solo traveller and my first trip with adventure company so it would be good to chat to others on the trip before departure.
Hi Katy, I've just booked this trip! I'm also travelling solo and it's my first trip too - can't wait! It's good to hear there will be at least a couple of solo travellers.
Have you been to Morocco before?
Hi Rachel,
Great to hear from you. I've never been to Morocco before and like you, can't wait. It looks so beautiful in the photos and the trip sounds really interesting. I was a little worried I'd be the only solo traveller. Will you be also flying from Gatwick - if so, do you fancy grabbing a coffee in the departure lounge?
Have you been anywhere like Morocco before? I'm expecting the cultural differences to be so significant.
I know, I've wanted to visit Morocco for a while and think this trip sounds like the best way to do it. I've not travelled much outside Europe before so am also expecting a culture shock but should be really interesting.
I'll be flying from Gatwick too (I did look into organising my own flights as I live up in Liverpool but thought it would be easier this way!) so it would be great to meet up. Where abouts are you from?
Hi Rachel
I'm from Aberystwyth, on the west coast of Wales. It takes so long to get to gatwick from here by train I'll have to go the day before! I looked at arranging my own flights but I couldn't get them much cheaper and then i would have had to arrange transfers - as you say at least this way there is less to worry about.
I'm getting my vaccinations next week - not looking forward to it!!!
Good luck! Which ones are you getting? I need to get my vaccinations soon too....and sort out what else I need to get for the trip!
Had Hep A and typhoid vaccines today. My arm feels very heavy now. Could have been worse at least i was up to date on my tetenus and diptheria so didnt need those and i didn't have to pay for either of the jabs!
I've started a list of things i need - its quite long! It'll be a challenge to keep to 10kg as they suggest as we will still need warm clothes for the evenings and a sleeping bag.

Indians can't bowl - Where has the rumour come from as I myself and many indian friends arwe competent fast bowlers ?
With the English bid I said: Let us be brief. If you give back the Falkland Islands, which belong to us, you will get my vote. They then became sad and left
Like I said, Silk shouldn't have come in with North at the crease. 10 from 15 is Sabburgesque.

Pretty sure they had crossed before Smith was given out. North should be on strike imo

Good effort from Lee to still bowl these type of wheels. Got it up to nearly 150km/h.
He's turned it around since he beat up Piers Morgan
D00lamder is such a nondescript t20 player. Just looks so unnatural when he slogs.
If D00lan has sustained a serious back injury in a t20 match I swear I'll...

This commentary really is something else. It's like being the living room of a bunch of people particularly disinterested in the cricket that's on TV. I'm waiting for the camera to cut into the box to show them playing poker or something.

Can't ch10 find anybody other than a new reporter from their own channel to be the celebrity catcher lol
Crowds have been good but the standards have been appalling. There was a total of 7 dropped catches in the 2 games I've attended. Even the IPL has better catchers lol

Rab Shadow Hoodie Jacket
Rab Shadow Hoodie Price: £120 From: www.rab.uk.com Tested: Continuously for four months The Shadow Hoodie isn't really a jacket for riding in, it's what I would call a 'live-in-jacket'. In winter it can be worn as a mid-layer over a base layer and under a waterproof shell or down jacket, and in summer it can […]

I hav a similar rab top (stretch vr) that i litterally live in! Fantastic quality stuff and british too
I have another Rab top the Vapour Rise Tour Lite, that I've been living in since I bought it. Windshell, very breathable, light, tricot lining for warmth and comfort – you can wear it next to the skin, over a base layer and as a midlayer under a hardshell. Water resistant and very quick to dry.
And pit zips + chest pockets which also vent. And a hood, which you can fold/roll out of the way.
I love it!
Would get one if it didn't have a hood.
I have one and was Very pleased with it, unfortunatly i ripped the elbow, and the nature of the material means sewing and repairing neetly and inconsipicuously, is very hard, the outer fabric runs when ripped and when sewn pulls appart.
Other than the rips (My fault) amazing jacket.
I have been living in one of these all winter, (my wife has made me wash it once or twice) wandering around Lee Quarry and the surrounding moors in all weathers, it really is very good bit of kit. Not good in the rain though half an hour or so of water falling from the sky and it starts to soak through but then I guess it does not claim to be water proof so I only have myself to blame! I have used it on and off the bike and I was very glad of the hood back when we had all the ice around. Its not too hot and not too cold I can see me using it pretty much all year round. Got mine for pretty much half price from Planet Fear but having had one for a while even the full price would seem reasonable if I had to get a replacment.
I have a MAMMUT soft shell. I think it cost me circa £100 almost 8yrs ago. Its still trucking.
I'd buy a MAMMUT any day of the week over the coffeeshop jackets like Northface/Rab stuff like the above. Sorry.
It's not a soft shell this, it's a fleece with a weather/wind proof surface. Definitely to be re-considered if you want something in the softshell vein.
I've had one for 2.5 months. I like it, because the hood is great, it looks cool and it's stretchy, which works for me as I'm movin n groovin. (Cycling/gardening). I'm 5′.10″ and went for the small. Because it's a tight fitting garment mine feels a tad too small, so if I'm gonna layer beneath it, i'll have to go for thin, un-weighty garments. So if you fancy sticking a jumper under it when cold, the fit is dense – a tad swaddled. It isn't a true shell-outer layer but it is built hardily. So it would serve well if a bit bigger. I have a friend who got theirs a size bigger for the means of layering more comfortably. Though snug, it's not the warmest. It traps heat when you prolong the movin n groovin, so for cold mornings it'll do well. Don't loiter in it with the hood up on street corners in Longisght.
Summary – an economically fitting jacket with good weather/wind proofing and stretchy material. Comfortably snug but far from a lightweight primaloft item. Hood is amazing. Whole piece is great beneath a hardshell!

Pricing script
I will admit I am new at coding, but I am stuck and I'm sure it has an easy solution but I just cant find it. At the root of my problem is I cannot get an If, else statement to work properly, many time I have come very close only to have it bog down somewhere.
I have to write a Coffie House script and the requirements are as follows:
I serve 3 sizes: 8oz., 12oz. and 16oz.
Espresso costs $1.40 It is served as a shot. Extra shots are .50
Latte and Cappuccino cost the same. They are however, served in ounce sized cups. An 8oz. costs $1.95, a 12oz. - $2.35 and a 16 oz. - $2.75.
An Americano costs $1.20 plus $.30 for each additional 8 ounces ordered.
The final price should also take into account a state sales tax of 5.5%.
I have tried so many variations, it's getting difficult to continue. Every place I go to look at sample code is different and doesnt work. As I said, I need to take the order, and turn the response into an If, else. Yet I am having a hard time with it.
Post the attempt that you believe closest to what you are trying to achieve
or the attempt that you believe you best understand the underlying logic.
Give us something to look at rather than do your homework for you!

It's not so much that I want my work done for me, although I can understand why folks would think that. I'm sure I'm not the first one to post such a vague question, so I understand it.
I have tried multiple things, even 'switch case, and defining variables at the outset. My most simple code was:
if (order = "espresso" )
price = 1.40
else (order = "latter" )
price = 1.50
I was using this just as a set up to figure out how it would work. After this I did the tax equation
total = price * .055 + price
No, I havent figured out how to round the equation yet, but that doesnt matter yet.
What always happens is no matter what I type in for 'order', the price goes to 1.50 and I get a total of 1.58. The 1.40 never gets called, I get a feeling the code goes to the last math option. On top of that, I cannot figure out how to ask for the additional shots within the If, else. I could probably do that stuff afterward, but I'm having such a basic problem I cant move forward
Look here:
See rule 1.5.
We *will* help you with your code, but you have to have made a reasonable effort, first, and you have to show us (a) your code and (b) what you believe the problem to be.
An optimist sees the glass as half full.
A pessimist sees the glass as half empty.
A realist drinks it no matter how much there is.
Oops...I'm slow.
Okay, for starters, in JavaScript the = operator *ALWAYS* means "assign the value on the right side to the variable on the left side." *ALWAYS*
So when you doyou are *NOT* testing whether order is the same as "espresso". You are CHANGING the value of order *TO* espresso.Code:if (order = "espresso" )
You *MUST* use == to do comparisons. MUST.
An optimist sees the glass as half full.
A pessimist sees the glass as half empty.
A realist drinks it no matter how much there is.
Depending on if you need to use the value again, you can round to dollars and cents to a string display like this.-----
total = price * .055 + price
No, I havent figured out how to round the equation yet, but that doesnt matter yet.
Makes the assumptions of:Code:total = ((price * 0.055) + price).toFixed(2);
1. price is a number
2. total becomes a string that you no longer need as a number.
(If needed, then create a temp variable for the $.00 display.

I really hate passive gameplay. I love fighting other players and get bored just farming minions. Because of this, I thought Dominion would be just my thing. I figured I'd love the nonstop action and shorter game times that it promised. However, I've been watching the stream, and instead of being excited, I've just found myself wondering if the game was over yet. The 20 minute games seemed longer than 30-40 minute SR games. I'm wondering if the truly nonstop action actually cheapens the thrill of fights. In SR, almost all fighting is exciting because it doesn't happen as often and kills and deaths have a far greater impact. In Dominion, it really isn't very exciting seeing people fighting and dying and killing because it doesn't really mean as much. It matters on a grand scale, but individual fights and kills mean very little. I hope that I'm wrong, but it looks like Dominion will be a map that's fun to mess around on for a while, but boring in the long term. I don't know if there are any DAoC players here, but the battlegrounds would be analogous to it. They're fun to tool around in for quick and easy fights, but if you're looking for any real exciting and challenging pvp, you play the frontiers.
More proof that whatever Riot does, it pisses people off.
that is your opinion and your preference and you have every right to have it. to each their own
I'm hardly pissed off. I already said that I hope I'm wrong and that I can enjoy dominion a lot. I was just musing over the idea that making fighting nonstop actually lowers the excitement and satisfaction values of it.
luckily...SR isn't being deleted on dominion release..... I understand your point, but I don't think it will be an issue as you can always go play some SR.
SLB Exxel
Now we're QQing that dominion is too much fun? wtf
You could try playing a mix of SR and Dominion. Also, maybe after they finish up with Dominion they'll fix Twisted Treeline and do the same kind of thing to make it actually competitive where more than 15 champions are viable.
I think it's udnerstandable given that some people don't care for ARAM games either. Suppose it's partly on how you view things and what your definition of fun is. I play other games and don't play LoL 24/7 which I can see if I did how it might grow stale or any game for that matter.

Most of you know RoboCop as one of those movies -- like Network or The Fifth Element -- that rotates endlessly on late-night cable TV.
But buried beneath the shoot-outs, car chases and pre-CGI stop-action animation is a cogent, bitter critique of American capitalism, and the dystopia it could possibly produce.
More than that, RoboCop asked a sophisticated philosophical question about the role of technology in medicine: How much of a human being's physical body can be removed before a person stops being a human?
MGM has slated a remake of RoboCop, but as the original star, Peter Weller, recently told a Los Angeles audience, it won't likely reproduce the morality at the heart of the original.
Nor its macroeconomic analysis.

Intimate moments between lovers are imagined in the Paolo Morales 'Fantasies' series, which shows the photographer posing with four different women acting as their boyfriend. The photos explore the notion of "what could have been" in relationships, be it with a stranger you see on the street or the one that got away. The series is both sad and hopeful, creating a sense of nostalgia while also promising a future full of romantic possibilities.
Morales explains the project, saying, "The camera is a tool to construct relationships and the photographs are the evidence of those relationships. This work is motivated by the desire, absence of and search for a relationship." I adore the Paolo Morales 'Fantasies' photoset for how honest it is, revealing much about the subjects and the photographer himself as he invites the viewer into his brain and exposes his deepest desires.

IMPHAL: A day after the ruling Congress named its candidates for the ensuing 10th Manipur assembly polls, the opposition NCP, which is a key member of the pre-poll opposition alliance - People's Democratic Front (PDF) - on Saturday named 14 candidates in its first list of nominees.
Manipur NCP unit president and opposition leader Radha Binod Koijam, popularly known as RB in political circles, three sitting MLAs of the party - Th Nandakishor Singh, Salam Joy and Doukhomang Khongsai - and five former legislators are among the listed candidates.
On the recommendation of the state NCP unit's election committee, the central election committee has approved the 14 names as the party's candidates, said a statement released by Koijam, also a former chief minister.
Besides NCP, the other partners of the PDF, whose primary target is to take on and defeat the ruling Congress in the polls scheduled for January 28, are the regional Manipur People's Party (MPP), JD(U), RJD and CPI(M). Though BJP is not a member of the grand pre-poll alliance, the saffron party and MPP have worked out a seat-sharing arrangement in certain constituencies.
Meanwhile, a large number of political parties are gearing up for house-to-house campaigns in the valley areas to woo the voters. The Congress, which is facing a ban and a 'perpetual threat' from CorCom, the apex body of seven underground organizations operating in the state, is carrying out its campaign on a low key even as the ECI has assured deployment of adequate security for conducting the polls smoothly without any disturbances from any anti-social forces.
Official sources said around 350 companies of central paramilitary forces, in addition to the state forces, would be pressed into service in the single-phase election.
On Friday last, the ruling party, Congress, announced its candidates for all sixty constituencies. The list includes two senior sitting MLAs of the opposition Manipur People's Party (MPP) and one RJD legislator.

What brand/type of glue do you like to use when crafting. I have been making some wreaths with dried apples and oranges and small wooden items such as gingerbread men. I have been using my glue gun. I just am not sure if it will hold for a long time to come.
Thanks!! Dory |

Hi Dory, My fav is E600 it seems to never fail and works on everything. Good luck |
- Posted by flo(firstname.lastname@example.com) onTue, Oct 30, 01 at 11:34
I also use E6000 (great stuff) - especially for hard to glue surfaces such as glass, mirrors, metal, terra cotta, etc. or for heavier projects that require extra hold. I use Aleene's Tacky & Designer Tacky Glue for smaller wood projects and other surfaces, both indoor and out, both porous and non-porous. It's never failed me either. If you are gluing 2 porous surfaces together you probably won't experience a problem. It's when you're gluing a porous surface to a non-porous surface or 2 non-porous surfaces together is where you usually experience problems with hot glue. |
My friend does florals, wreaths, etc, and she just bought a hot glue pot for dipping things in. It is a great idea, she buys glue chunks to melt in the pot. Works much faster than a gun. |
For Florals I use a glue gun, for most other projects I also use E6000... it's the best stuff! Paint Drop Hugs! |
- Posted by terracotta (My Page) on Wed, Oct 31, 01 at 22:57
I use the glue gun for wreaths, e6000 for jewelry and Aleene's tacky for glass and wood. I really like Aleene's as it dries clear and really adheres-plus no smell to deal with as E6000 can make you woosy if you're in an enclosed space and heaven knows I'm light headed enough most of the time ..esp. this time of the year. |
- Posted by NANCY(firstname.lastname@example.com) onThu, Nov 1, 01 at 22:03
Please Be Careful with E6000. It works very well but I damaged my lungs......didn't realize how much time passed while I used it in a closed in area.......only a couple of hours. That evening my lungs felt like they were on fire and I was very short of breath. I sure would like to be able to use it again but I am afraid of it. I realized what had been happening to make me feel that way, fortunately. |
someone posted a site that told what glue was best for each project, but I can't find it. someone help please. |

After recent landscaping work, our city front yard has a large new space for color. The down side is that a lovely maple sucks up all the summer moisture. We have tulip bulbs for spring and last summer I put annuals over them. Although impatiens flourished elsewhere in our shady garden, they looked pathetic in this space last summer, despite my loyal watering. They were also difficult to plant because of the tree's roots. Suggestions for a colorful PERENNIAL that is drought- and shade-tolerant? |

I'm in zone 9b/10 so I'm not sure if these will take your zone. Almost everything I grow has to be drought-tolerant. Perennials I have in shade: I find most roses are drought-tolerant once established. The old garden type roses are very hardy and some are shade-tolerant. Climbers can be used as large bushes. Climbers that I have in partial sun/shade: buff beauty, Mademoiselle Alfred Carriere, Blush noisettes (all noisettes can take some shade) and Dr. W. Van Fleet. Other roses (not hybrid tea roses) that I have in partial shade: Rosarie de l'hay, Reine des violettes, souvenir de la malmaison, gruss an aachen. |

If roots are a problem, maybe some hanging baskets would do the trick? And while the flowers aren't usually anything special, the wide varities of hostas might offer nice color and texture choices. See the Hosta forum for some ideas. Good luck. |

Daylilies (Hemerocallis) do well in my dry shade, and I know there are lots of cultivars with different colours and bloom times. Also mallow (Malva spp.) bloom happily, and it's probably worth trying campanula carpatica. Oh, and my heart-leaved aster is quite happy. This year I planted tradescantia (spiderwort), which my source tells me is happy anywhere - we shall see. I've also planted nicotiana - again, we shall see. Other no-so-colourful stuff that's happy is lily-of-the-valley, wild strawberries and, oddly, festuca glauca (blue fescue), which is supposed to like lots of sun. On the edge of the shade area I've got creeping speedwell, which is currently blooming quite prettily, and some pansies, which are blooming now but won't be happy when it gets hot. Also fritillaria meleagris is nice along with the tulips (I've got purple and white tulips, nice with the mixed purple and white fritillaria). Hope this is helpful. |
- Posted by Bullnettle z8b TX (My Page) on Sun, May 25, 03 at 20:06
Salvia coccinea is a dry shade bloomer here in Texas; it's an annual, but reseeds itself well. I have a number of other shade plants that are colorful, but doubt they'd do well in your zone. Native columbines might do well for you; the Texas natives do well for me in dry shade. |
Thanks for your suggestions. Now to go shopping........ |
- Posted by debstuart1 z4NH (My Page) on Sun, Jun 1, 03 at 23:19
Be careful of lily of the valley - it's cute but will get into garden beds and drive you crazy unlewss there is a LOT of room between this spot and your borders. I don't find daylilies bloom very well w.o. some sun. There are pretty ajugas now and they bloom and have nice bronzy or ruby leaves and do well in dry shade. Also foam flower. None of these are long bloomers but have nice leaf textures. |
- Posted by Flower_Slut z5a Ottawa ON (My Page) on Mon, Jun 2, 03 at 9:09
And whatever you do, don't plant bishop's weed, aka goutweed, often recommended for dry shade. Evil evil evil. It's like deliberately planting bindweed - you'll never have anything else. They were selling it at my local (reputable!) garden centre, at $10.99 a pot. Clearly they're Satan's little helpers. |
I really can't think of anything that will coexist with tree roots (I'm oh, so familiar with that situation) AND provide summer bloom. Most things are short bloomers like Ajuga and Epimedium. But how about using a ground cover like those and adding some strategically placed pots of bloomers? Teri |
- Posted by gardeningangel_Z6 Ark.Ozarks Mt. (My Page) on Wed, Jun 4, 03 at 16:25
How high is the maple tree limbed-up? I have the old fashioned iris growing at the base of my good-sized tulip tree. It's doing very well there ,and blooms nicely.The newer varieties may not do so well. I believe it (the tree) is quite a water-guzzler ,too ,since the grass dries out around it in a dry summer. I also have vinca with the iris.It's not spreading ..just staying by the tree. (I mow around it) |
- Posted by debstuart1 z4NH (My Page) on Wed, Jun 4, 03 at 22:06
The pot thing is a good idea - if you have nice ground cover like vinca, then you can have pots for color and rotate things in and out. I do this in shady garden spots which are having a down time and it's successful - and making planters is fun NO NO NO to bishop's weed!!! At a farmer's market last Sat somebody was selling big pots of it and an unwary new gardener was considering it. I spoke up and I don't think the seller was happy with me but PULEEZ! |
- Posted by Flower_Slut z5a Ottawa ON (My Page) on Thu, Jun 5, 03 at 9:25
I'd like to add that my earlier suggestions (daylilies, mallow, campanula, aster etc) are all planted amongst tree roots. I just keep adding compost - spring and fall - in large quantities, because this is all the front yard I have. This may not be a possibility for you, but it does work. Oh, and I forgot, though someone else mentioned it - columbine is another excellent choice - I have aquilegia canadensis. |
- Posted by shadeeladee z5 KS (My Page) on Thu, Jun 5, 03 at 16:45
Nearly all of my garden is planted among tree roots. Think of plants that naturally cope with tree roots and that will help you. The big question is how much shade do you have. If you have fairly deep shade with no direct sun, consider Japanese anenome, Columbine as Flower Slut mentioned, astilbe (though it will need more nutrients there), ligularia, or some types of hardy geranium. |
- Posted by subzerosgirl (My Page) on Fri, Jun 6, 03 at 0:49
You might check out pulmonaria, primrose, dead nettle, bluebells, ming toy daylily, purple dome asters if it gets at least dappled shade is just stunning, scarlet sage,hellebores, toad lillies, corydalis,indian pinks,crown imperial can take partial shade, jack-in-the pulpit. |
yes, lamium (dead nettle) has several varieties and presents a pretty variegation (semi-evergreen for me) even if it's not in bloom. Ajuga will prefer some moisture. Not sure if the jack-in-the-pulpit is a good idea; they like REALLY loose soil and don't take kindly to transplanting, plus their bloom time is SO short. Creeping phlox? |
- Posted by Patricia43 z8 AL (My Page) on Sat, Jun 14, 03 at 2:21
And don't, whatever you do, plant mint. |
- Posted by Cybersunday z5 ca (My Page) on Wed, Jun 25, 03 at 7:20
I have a toad lily in a clayish soil and it is doing quite well, ferns, hostas are a good bet too, astilbe will grow but not as well |

Lamium is very tough, and can be colorful. There is a purple-blooming variety with silver variegated leaves that looks very nice. I too have dry shade and am trying to fill it up. Lamium was the first thing I put in there. I've also heard that heucherellas are very good for this type of situation. (A cross between heucheras and tiarellas.) Other plants that I've heard recommended: If you look for variegated versions of these plants, they may provide more splash. |
- Posted by debstuart1 z4NH (My Page) on Wed, Jul 16, 03 at 15:25
Sure, iliy of the valley will work, but it is worse than Bishop's Weed if it gets into beds, as you absolutely cannot pull it out and it spreads into even the roots of other perennials. Only use it if it is far, far away from borders and beds. I've said this before!! My ajuga does quite nicely in these conditions and their are lamiuns which are VERY attractive. I have a varigated leaf variety with pale yellow flowers, as well as a couple of others w. purple and w. pink. Yup, epimdeiums also work well for me too. But they don't cover as much space for a while (at least in my spots.) |
- Posted by Tiffy_z6aCan 6a (My Page) on Thu, Sep 4, 03 at 10:34
What about Lysimachia? There's Firecracker (deep purple leaves with bright small yellow flowers that look like they're popping out of the plant. This one is doing well in a shaded garden with dry soil. I don't usually mulch, but did so with these, which helps. I do not consider it a 'bully', and when it goes beyond it's limits, just pull out the new shoot, and cut back to the mama plant. I am also trying Eupatoriums - Chocolate and the regular Joe Pye. These gardens are surrounded by boulders coming out of the ground, and the front boulders get sun for a couple of hours. Since they absorb heat, the ground dries-up quickly, yet the gardens behind the boulders are in shade... Nicole. |

I garden in southeastern Pennsylvania in a mostly shady garden. There are two large maples that dominate my front garden but two tenacious low growers are content growing in their dry, root filled shade. The first is the non stop bloomer corydalis lutea. The second is tinantia pringleii, also a nonstop bloomer. Both reseed vigorously but are easy to remove. As a bonus, Lutea and Tinantia look quite nice together. |

New PowerPoint Import for KOffice
Since Nokia's takeover of Trolltech and the increased presence of Qt, the KOffice suite has been gaining prominence on mobile devices. Developers have been working on new import opportunities of Microsoft Office formats.
On September 17 Nokia's KOffice developer Thomas Zander announced in his blog that the document viewer for the next Maemo 5 platform will be based on KOffice2. At the same time the KOffice team released a new beta version with a vastly improved MS Word import filter.
Now Jos van den Oever has written some further software to improve importing MS Office documents to KOffice: a parser that converts PowerPoint format to XML. As he reports in his blog, the documentation describing the PPT format encompasses 663 pages, with the one on drawings, essential to presentations, encompassing 620 pages as a PDF file. To prevent from having to scroll through all the pages, van den Oever converted the documents to machine-readable format and developed a parser from it to convert PowerPoint files to XML format. The method allows large amounts of PowerPoint data to be read in to make it easier to find weaknessses and errors. The resulting XML files can then be used as a basis for an import filter.
The product is a Qt program called
with a C++ and Java parser that is now available for download. Jos van den Oever encourages other project developers to write parsers in their favorite languages, requiring fewer than 700 lines of code.
Interested parties in Msoscheme for machine-readable MS Office files who want to participate in the project can access the source code as follows:
git clone git://gitorious.org/msoscheme/msoscheme.git mkdir msoscheme/cpp/build cd msoscheme/cpp/build cmake .. make ./ppttoxml myfile.ppt myfile.xml
A driving force behind the newest KOffice development is the KO GmbH open document company, where van den Oever is also a member.

.- The Vatican Pontifical academies will hold their eighth joint public session on Thursday, November 6, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the Vatican's New Synod Hall.
The joint session will be focused on the theme "The Martyrs and Monuments to their Memories, Living Stones in the Building of Europe."
The Vatican has five Pontifical Academies, two of which have been created by Pope John Paul II.
The oldest are the "Cultorum Martyrum" Academy, which promotes historical accuracy and devotion to the martyrs; the Pontifical Ecclesiastical Academy, which forms future Vatican diplomats and the Pontifical Academy of Sciences, created by Pope Pious IX as a non-sectarian group of world scientists.
The two created by Pope John Paul are the Pontifical Academy for Life, aimed at defending the right to life with dignity from conception to natural death, and the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences, aimed at promoting the application of the social doctrine of the Church.
During this joint meeting there will be the awarding of the prize of the pontifical academies.

Backup size exceeding tape size
I have a backup which is too large for the size of the backup tape.
The backup fails at 1,020,514,340,582 bytes approximately.
I ran a test run for media capcity check to complete individual job and it reports as 752,413,518,012. I'm not too sure if the test run is acurate but the two dont appear to match up.
I added the below exclusions in on Friday but am now out of ideas other than excluding the actual data. Is anyone able to give me any pointers as to if the test run is acurate or if my exclusions are incorrect perhaps to free up more space.

Like lmosla said, you need to perform an actual backup to see how much data can you backup on that tape.
The main factor involved here is compression. The amount of compression you would get would be different for different data (txt files, databases, images, etc). This would obviously change how much data can you backup to the tape.
Thank you for the replies. They are LTO4 tapes. Last nights backup ran with a slightly smaller byte count to some of those which were successful. I see it is now up to the last server (RDS - system state). I have reduced the backup size slightly by removing some of the TS profiles but am not sure if this is enough before tonights backup.
I did think about compression but if anything would expect the test backup to be slightly larger because the compression is done at the time of the backup.
I have not yet pushed the SP3 update out for buexec 2010 do you think this could help with the compression?
Many Thanks
Backup Exec has no control over how much compression you can achieve. However, it is always advisable to keep the Tape drivers and firmware uptodate. Also, SP3 does fix a lot of issues, not sure if anything is specific to compression, but it is always recommended to stay updated in terms of service packs.

Now that it is fall I've had my clivia on the porch all summer watering regularly and feeding also so now what is the next step ? Thanks...... |
Follow-Up Postings:
I'll jump in here, since now that tis is my second year blooming a clivia successfully,I feel I can offer some advice. I am in Chicagoland, and I keep my clivai indoors all year, except for about 4-8 weeks intermittently in the autumn/ealry winter. I leave it in an east facing room with direct morning sun (some would argue too much, but it is used to it, so I don't mess with it). It stays on the coffee table all year and I water more in the summer (including taking outside for rain showers). As fall appraoaches,I let it dry out more frequently (no rules, but pretend water every 10 days becomes water every 18 days, and eventually water every 24 days, etc.). I also bring it to the garage/shed/cellar at night so it is around 35-50F. The colder the temps I expose it to, the longer it dries out between waterings). Once I see the bud puishing through the stalk I increase the frequency of water and permanantly send it to the living room on the coffee table. When I bought it at Christmas time it was in bloom, last year it bloomed in March, and this year it will bloom around Christmas again. I do the same treatment with my christmas cactus, several orchids (dendrobium-nobile type and cymbidium), clivia, amarylis, andmy epiphytic cacti when they are old enough to bloom (too young). hope that helps. |

Activision's stock price (NASDAQ:ATVI) rose by 4.7% in Friday's trading following the announcement of sales figures for its latest game release - Call of Duty: Black Ops II. In only the first 24 hours of sale, the company's newest game generated over $500 million in retail sales. This is a new first-day record for the franchise and compares favorably to last year's edition, which generated $400 million in first day sales and $1 billion in the first 16 days. As a frame of reference, the new blockbuster Bond movie, Skyfall, has generated $500 million in global sales since its international release in late October.
While it's difficult to extrapolate results from one day of sales, the record numbers are indicative of ATVI's ability to successfully exploit its Call of Duty brand with a product that creates considerable buzz among gamers. After nine years since the original Call of Duty release, the franchise appears stronger than ever.
Reviews have been very good, though not as high as some of the previous iterations. GameRankings.com, a site that consolidates the ratings of a number of credible reviewers, has assigned it a score of 86 out of 100.
Friday's news release reinforces one of the most attractive aspects of the video game business, the ability to develop a franchise which delivers consistent results on an annual basis. Across a number of game franchises, ATVI has demonstrated strong product loyalty with its user base. The predictable annual release of new versions of a game is almost equivalent to a product or service with a recurring revenue stream.
ATVI is currently selling at a P/E ratio of just 11.0 times next 12-month consensus estimated earnings - a 13% discount to the market. According to Zacks Research, ATVI has beat consensus estimates for the past four quarters. I regard the stock as attractively valued for investors seeking long-term growth.

I had dinner with my wife in this place. The starter was OK but the main was DISGUSTING. I ordered a chicken Kiev which is supposed to be one of the flagship dishes of the Russian cuisine.
The chicken was undercooked ,dry and clearly cooked from frozen . We called the waiter to complain and he admitted himself that it was frozen. Instead of taking my complaint as constructive feedback and remove the chicken from the bill they took it as a personal offence saying that we must have sophisticated tastes!!
For the quality of the food we got and the rude staff we won't come back to this place.

Virtual Teams Focus on Teamwork
With constant changes occurring in the global business environment and economy, getting things done in teams is more important than ever. Given all the downsizing and organizational changes, much more is done virtually in teams. Existing teams have been reconfigured, and employees are working with people they hadn't worked with before. There appears to be greater recognition that the ability to pull teams together and facilitate collaboration is more critical than in the past. The priority will be on building team chemistry and harmony, partnering across boundaries, and focusing on the company's big picture interests.
So what does this mean for global leaders and management consultants? Clients are refocused on growth and believe that success depends on obtaining and retaining key talent. That should mean a much greater emphasis on team and leadership development as we move ahead.
The best companies know how to insure both efficiency and effectiveness on their teams. AIM can help you get started. We have a systematic approach to onsite, dispersed and hybrid teams and offer tools and best practices to support you. Checkout online resources on www.yaelzofi.com
If you would like to explore having Yael and/or AIM consultants spend time with your team, please let us know. We are especially interested in offering short presentations or workshops about the new book. Shorter sessions introduce virtual teams to our thinking; longer workshops build people's skills in using our practical methodology. For more information contact : email@example.com

I live in San Diego and I have something that is eating my coleus leaves. I don't know what insect it is - I've yet to find the little critter. I am assuming ants.
Is there a bug repellent spray you can make at home? I don't want more holes in my coleus leaves. thanks, Suzanne |

Don't think it's ants,they usually eat the aphids and such.More than likely it's either slugs/snail or those little green worms.If you see a glistening trail on or around them,then that's 'SNAIL SNOT" and those are the culprits.JMO.Others may have other ideas as well. Kathi |

Ants don't eat aphids or plants. Slugs and snails do. and rabbits. and birds. |
