Conceptualizing Orthodox Sufism
31 Mar 2014 10:19 GMT
There are two types of Sufism: authentic and pseudo, or theosophical, Sufism. Authentic, or orthodox, Sufism is a product of Islam alone, and hence must be studied primarily against the backdrop of the Islamic message as a criterion and standard.

The Dawson County Board of Education has taken the next step in finding a replacement for retiring Superintendent Keith Porter.

"As you know, this winter has been especially harsh, which has resulted in nine days of absences due to the inclement weather...," said Dawson County School Superintendent Keith Porter in a letter addressed to parents dated Feb. 21.

Naomi Campbell, Sessilee Lopez's Vogue Italia Editorials Come Out of Hiding
>> Just as The Wall Street Journal promised, a couple of editorials from the July 2008 Vogue Italia appeared today, featuring two out of the four cover models. Both sets were shot by VI perennial favorite Steven Meisel.
"There's only one Naomi" features Naomi Campbell in a luxe setting — pretty normal fashion editorial fare, nothing outstanding except a shot of her crawling on a pool table — full gallery (NSFW) below. Sessilee Lopez's set is in all black-and-white, very Yves Saint Laurent-inspired; In fact, one shot of her in head wrap, teeth bared, reminds me of YSL favorite Waris Dirie.

'Idol' Contestant Kellie Pickler on Marriage: 'I Think I'll Keep Him' (EXCLUSIVE)
Former American Idol contestant Kellie Pickler is spilling the beans on her marriage since eloping with beau Kyle Jacobs.
In 2011, Pickler, 26, quietly got hitched to her boyfriend of three years in Caribbean. Now, with a year and a half of marriage under her belt, the country singer says things are going as strong as ever.
"We are doing really great," she told Celebuzz. "He's my best friend, and I got a good man. So, I think I'll keep him!"
However, her marriage isn't the only thing that's keeping her on her toes these days.
"I'm usually on the road all year," she explained. "We'll book as many shows as we can a year. I love being on the road. I love touring. I love being on my bus. It's my sanctuary."
"I have new songs to sing, which is great, and I'm already working on new music and writing," she added. "I cant wait to get the new stuff out as well. Busy, busy, busy!"
Busy, indeed! Pickler also recently teamed with ConAgra Foods Foundation's Hunger-Free Summer program in an effort to reduce child hunger in America.
The interactive partnership, which began on June 26, encourages citizens to log onto ConAgra Foods' Facebook page and download their free children's activity book. For every booklet that is downloaded, ConAgra Foods will match that with a free meal for a child.
"That is unacceptable," she said of child hunger. "There is no reason in the world we can't all come together and fix this issue."

It is a Winston-Salem PD turn in that must have been used by a supervisor. Only a couple of minor scratches but nice clean sharp rifling and just minor discoloration on the front of the cylinder. I think I can make a good home for it.

I can really understand your feelings right now. A love that is lost or in doubt is such a painful thing. Especially with everything else you are going through! You can make it, but don't forget to take care of yourself and take time to mourn if the relationship really is over.View Thread
I think your solution will be two fold. Continue working on your depression and anxiety, but purposefully do things that test your abilities where they are weak. Think of it as exercise. Your brain WILL begin to develop connections again. Also, look at any areas of worry or stress. Both of those things can actually keep you from using abilities you actualy have. Being aware of this can counteract the effect.
Secondly, look at your nutrition. You wouldn't believe the incredible brain fog I get if my levels of folate are low. Folate, other B vitamins, omega 3 fatty acids all help your brain heal itself and work better. You can get it from whole foods and from supplements. Also, limiting sugar and processed foods helps your brain wirk better.
Good luck to you! Keep at it and you will see improvement.View Thread
So that's me. Also, the spouse has solved some very worrisome physical problems and that's nice too. Less worry does wonders.
Hope you are doing well too.View Thread
I totally understand the emotional component. It can be next to impossible to be positive about anything if you are in emotional and physical pain. Yet, that is the key to survival.View Thread

So what's the solution? It's not to put people in jail without bond for kicking the family pet and then order them to watch The Prince of Tides. Instead, the state should drop the one-size-fits-all approach to treatment. "Currently all domestic violence offenders in Colorado receive the same treatment, regardless of evaluation recommendations, risk levels or prior domestic violence offenses," notes the Colorado Coalition Against Domestic Violence in a recent report funded by the U.S. Department of Justice. That's got to change--and the state needs to implement more aggressive oversight of the byzantine treatment network, in part to ensure that offenders actually go to class.
Equally important is rethinking the core philosophy that drives Colorado's treatment efforts. The state now has 168 licensed treatment providers, with names ranging from Women Seeking Empowerment to Violence Is Not Acceptable. But as the National Institute of Justice notes in a report published this past February, there is no evidence to suggest that one approach to "batterer intervention" works best--or, for that matter, that any of them really work at all.
As the NIJ study points out, most professionals in the field now acknowledge that batterer treatment programs function primarily as a kind of "super-probation." In other words, whether or not they have any practical effect, they at least allow somebody to monitor an offender's activities--and, since most women continue to remain in relationships with their batterers, to safeguard the victim.
But Colorado needs to make up its mind: Is it serious about "treating" batterers, or is it just going through the motions?
All the state's code words say Colorado has a therapeutic model. But in practice, it's really an extension of social control and punishment. The state must either take the idea of treatment seriously and begin enforcing attendance and weeding out the more dubious therapies or, if the real goal is to monitor an offender's actions and whereabouts, it should establish some form of incarceration option, perhaps a halfway-house system, for the worst offenders. Instead of dissipating limited resources in attempts to extend the net as widely as possible, more attention and manpower should be devoted to identifying and punishing truly dangerous, chronic batterers.
It is outrageous that, at present, no provisions exist to give sentence enhancements or alternative sentencing to repeat or high-risk offenders. There must be a jail option for these individuals, and the state must end the practice of putting first-time offenders into 36-week classes with hardened ex-cons who may actually encourage their abusive behavior. "Feather ceremonies" are fine, but treatment programs can create a false sense of security. Keeping closer tabs on these hardcore criminals, perhaps with special probation officers who've been given reduced caseloads, and establishing consequences for those who fail to complete the programs, are essential. Rather than pointing fingers at each other, probation officers and treatment providers need to work together to get probation revocations for resistant offenders. And judges need to listen.
The legislature had a chance to address some of these issues this session, but lawmakers dropped the ball. During the next legislative session, however, lawmakers can improve the consistency of treatment by assigning a single state agency to oversee the certification of treatment providers. Using 22 local oversight boards just hasn't worked; some of the boards don't even meet, and at least five report receiving threats of lawsuits from providers. Coordinating oversight within one agency--most likely the Department of Regulatory Agencies--would help impose some order on what can now be a chaotic regimen. Yes, it would create a bureaucracy. But getting rid of 22 local boards is getting rid of 22 bureaucracies.
There are promising signs that Colorado remains at the forefront on domestic violence. The NIJ study, for example, describes Denver's AMEND program as a "pioneer that continues to modify its models in keeping with the most recent trends in batterer intervention." Perhaps more than any other state, Colorado has the money, the experience, and the institutional memory to enact meaningful change.
So celebrate Colorado's status as a leader in domestic-violence research. But know that a system that applies a set of handcuffs on the front end and a slap on the wrist on the back end simply won't work. Patricia Ann Burns deserves better. So do all the others.

"Kill your own child" God seemed to say with firmness,
"For children satisfy a god's desire."
So Abraham brought Isaac in obedience
To sacrifice upon the altar's fire.
One of Marcus Borg's favorite examples of how poetry enriches liturgy:
read moreRather, the way of Jesus is the way of death and resurrection — the path of transition and transformation from an old way of being to a new way of being. To use the language of incarnation that is so central to John, Jesus incarnates the way. Incarnation means embodiment. Jesus is what the way embodied in a human life looks like."
― Marcus J. Borg, Reading the Bible Again for the First Time: Taking the Bible Seriously but Not Literally
Marcus became one of our most active Honorary Advisors, making suggestions and contributions over the years. We ended up several times at the same conferences and we usually found time to catch up on things from books to family. He never hesitated to let me know when he felt we had published something that was incorrect or with which he disagreed. We always appreciated his input. Marcus and I did have an ongoing, energetic conversation about the role of reciting ancient creeds which made statements we no longer believed, but we finally managed to agree to disagree. Those things are easy when you respect and love someone.
read moreThe cup of our living flows over its rim
And minds have no room for the fresh or the new,
For minds that are sated have stopped in their tracks
And ceased to be open to God's widening view.
Behind the world of images
There's nothing we can see.
Behind the realm of sound and word
There's nothing we can hear.
"Christianity's goal is not to escape from this world. It loves this world and seeks to change it for the better." ~Marcus Borg

The inner and the outer be as one;
Each mind reflect life's interweaving grace
And hearts all find God's presence deep within.
I thoroughly enjoyed the Sunday Assembly. Clearly it addresses a felt need of many people for a community without religious content. I sensed that some folks were there in reaction against religion, but it looked like most were just looking for a wholesome community with which to connect.

Form journeys of the pilgrim way

Now the star of Christmas
shines into our day,
points a new direction:

I have forgotten the name of this one. I got the seed from a stall of the Hardy Plant Society. I know it is supposed to be perennial. The leaves are quite narrow for a foxglove and the individual flowers quite small - it gives a very tall and slender spike. |
Image link: Anyone identify this foxglove? (56 k)
Follow-Up Postings:
I was just reading High Country Gardens' catalog and saw one called Digitalis obscura, Narrow-leaf Foxglove. Described as: 18" x 12" wide, ( seed propagated). 2004 Plant Select winner. A rugged perennial species from the mountains of Spain. Digitalis obscura is very different from the woodland Foxgloves commonly offered. The brown and yellow bell-like flowers are extrememly attractive; the upright woody stems and evergreen lily-like leaves are also very ornamental. This might be what you have. What do you think? gld |

I think you might be right. I do remember buying seed of that name now you mention it. This is a picture of the whole spike. Thanks for the very quick answer. |
- Posted by shrubs_n_bulbs z8/9 UK (My Page) on Tue, Aug 9, 05 at 18:03
My first thought was D. ferruginea. |
I love that plant! I may try to find seeds. The catalog I saw it in only had plants. They also recommended full or partial sun in lean to average garden soil (not too much compost) and water deeply but not too frequently. Z5-9. |
Could be D. ferruginea. Here's pics from my yard: |

bellarosa Well here is a picture of the leaves so you can compare. |

Is this what the leaf of ferruginea looks like? Cause if it is you guys have solved the problem of what foxgloves I have. |

It looks like the Digitalis ferruginea, l have in flower in my garden. |

Hodgkin Disease is sometimes difficult to detect because the standard symptoms may seem "normal." Because it is often common to have swollen lymph nodes, the doctor will look for infection first. If the doctor thinks that Hodgkin disease might be causing the symptoms, a biopsy or other tests may be recommended.
- The doctor will remove a piece (sample) of the lymph node and examine it under a microscope. This is the only way to know for sure if the swelling is caused by cancer.
Different types of biopsies and surgeries:
Excisional or Incisional Biopsy
- This is the most common type of biopsy for a swollen lymph node. In an excisional biopsy, the skin is cut through and an entire lymph node is removed. If only a small section of a large tumor or node is removed, it is called an incisional biopsy.
If the node is near the skin surface, this is a fairly simple operation that can sometimes be done with local anesthesia. But if the node is inside the chest or abdomen, the patient is then given general anesthesia.
Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy (FSA)
- A very thin needle is used to remove a small amount of fluid and tiny bits of tissue from the tumor.
Core Needle Biopsy
- A larger needle is used to remove a slightly larger piece of tissue.
In many cases a needle biopsy cannot get enough of a sample to make a definite diagnosis. Most doctors will use needle biopsies in patients already known to have Hodgkin disease to see if a swollen lymph node or organ in a different place also contains lymphoma.
Bone Marrow Aspiration and Biopsy:
Although, these tests are not used to diagnose Hodgkin Disease, they are used after a diagnosis to determine if the disease is in the bone marrow. A long thin needle is used to remove small bits of bone marrow. A piece of bone might also be removed with a thicker needle. The area is numbed first. But even with the numbing, many people feel some pain. The whole process takes only a few minutes.
- Laparotomy is a surgery that is performed through an abdominal incision, for direct pathological staging. Laparotomy is invasive - it involves a large incision - but is also the most accurate method for evaluating the spread of disease by direct observation and for biopsying small pieces of tissue. This procedure is not often used and many specialists believe that laparotomy should be used as a staging procedure only if it alters therapy (if the physician is planning to administer chemotherapy or a combined treatment plan there is no need to proceed with laparotomy.)
Scans and X-Rays:
Bone Scan
- A radioactive substance is also used for bone scans. After it is injected, it travels to damaged areas of the bone. Then, a camera locates the areas. Hodgkin can sometimes causes bone damage, which may be picked up on a bone scan. (Note: This test is not often done unless a person is having bone pain or has lab test results that suggest the Hodgkin disease may have reached the bones.)
Chest X-Ray
- Swelling of lymph nodes in the chest which can often be seen on a plain chest x-ray.
Computed Tomography (CT) Scan
- A CT scanner rotates around the patient while taking multiple images. Then, a computer combines these pictures into an accurate rendering of a "slice" of the body.
Gallium Scan
- A small dose of radioactive gallium is injected into a vein, which travels to the lymph tissue in the body. After a few days, a special camera is used to locate the gallium which may indicate Hodgkin.
- Lymphangiography is an X-ray technique that helps to reveal cancerous tissue in the lymphatic vessels after a special dye is injected into the lymphatic system. A lymphatic vessel in the foot often is chosen as an injection site if the physician suspects that Hodgkin Disease has invaded the abdomen and pelvis.
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
- Although this test is only rarely used in Hodgkin disease, if a concern exists about the spread of the disease to the spinal cord or brain, then a MRI is very useful. MRI scans use radio waves and strong magnets instead of x-rays to take pictures.
Positron Emission Tomography (PET)
- During a PET scan, a patient will have a form of sugar that contains a small amount of radioactivity injected into the blood, which will then collect in the cancer cells. A special camera can then pick up the radioactivity and show the areas of cancer in the body.
Additional Tests:
Blood Tests
- Blood tests are not used to stage Hodgkin disease but are useful in knowing how advanced the disease. While the disease cells do not show up in the blood, a complete blood count (CBC) can sometimes show signs of the disease. Also, a shortage of red blood cells (anemia) can be a sign of more advanced Hodgkin disease. Finally, blood tests of liver and kidney functions might also point to Hodgkin disease in that organ.
Once the results from the test or procedure are returned you will be able to make thoughtful decisions. Please see

What is emergency dentistry?
At Eastpoint Dental Clinic, we understand how painful a toothache can be. To that end, we accept dental emergencies on a walk in basis and are on-call in order to treat patients who require "immediate attention."
Accidents do happen, and knowing what to do when one occurs can mean the difference between saving and losing a tooth. In the event an accident occurs, call us and provide as much detail as possible about the situation.
If you're not sure if a dental problem is an emergency, we offer this advice: If it hurts, it's an emergency. This is because even injuries that seem small or superficial can affect the living tissues inside the teeth. Quick treatment improves the odds of saving injured or damaged teeth. Even if you aren't in much pain, any structural damage to a tooth — from a sports injury, for example — should be considered an emergency.
Chips or fractures can affect the living tissue inside the tooth, causing more problems in the future. Your dentist can prevent the damage from getting worse. The same is true of a lost filling or crown. Even if you don't have any symptoms, the tooth has lost its support and it could easily become weaker. Pieces could break off or crumble, and you would need more extensive treatment. If you see your dentist right away, there's a good chance he or she will be able to repair the damage with minimal treatment.
Any injury to teeth or gums can be serious and should not be ignored. Injury can damage nerves or blood vessels. There is also a risk of getting an infection, which can become life threatening. If you ignore dental pain or dental injury, you're taking a chance. You should not delay getting treatment. Delays in treatment can be dangerous to your health. Getting injured teeth repaired and treated quickly is the best thing to do.
What emergency dentistry services do you offer?
The staff at Eastpoint Dental Clinic will do our best to accommodate your needs in the event of a dental emergency. Our emergency services include:
• Tooth Replacement • Repairing Fractured Tooth • Replacing Knocked Out Tooth • Removing Lodged Objects • Evaluating Toothaches
• Reposition Teeth • Repairing Chipped Tooth • Replacing Dental Implants • Reinserting Tooth Fillings • Replacing Caps and Crowns

This serum is one of the best selling products from Innisfree for a reason people! To see best results, you are supposed to apply a generous amount right after washing your face and before your toner so that the product can seep into your skin and do its moisturizing magic. I have combination skin with an oily T-zone while my cheeks can get really dry. Upon using for the first month, I didn't see optimal results while it didn't cause anything negative so I would've given this a 4 star rating. I switch around my serums so I used other ones I was trying. One week, my face decided to freak out and be super dry while acne also arose. I started to use this serum again, and noticed that it hydrated my skin without irritating any break outs I had. I love the packaging, a sturdy bottle that doesn't let light go through with a pump. I definitely appreciate and love using this product now, and it's good to know that innisfree uses top quality natural ingredients too so I feel better about putting it on my skin!
it is suppose to be moisturizing but my face seems to feel more dehydrated after using it. it is sticky upon application, but it gets absorbed after a few minutes. This is a watery serum, which means that even though it is 80ml, one bottle won't last long.
the price of it is ok, not too expensive, but not as cheap as a drugstore serum either. In terms of benefits, i did not feel anything at all. this just a serum that you can live without, in my opinion. i rather use a serum that give benefits.
was expecting this to be a natural product, unfortunately alcohol is second on the ingredients list . quite disappointed. but i love the packaging though. green translucent bottle with a pump and cap--hygienic and cute
This product did not work that well for me as it did for others. I have sensitive skin where my cheeks can easily turn red if the product is not suitable. I used the samples of this product for a few days and my cheeks were redder than usual. I stopped using it and the redness of my cheeks tone down. Maybe it's just my skin that is not compatible with this product. If you have sensitive skin, I would advice you to use a sample first. Luckily I did not purchase the full size of the product.
The beauty assistant at the Innisfree store suggests that I apply the serum right after I washed my face before my toner. I found this to be a very effective method in locking the moisture and soften my skin.
This serum is not expensive at all if you compare to other big brands Western produce serum
for the price I pay I dont really expect too much miracle to happen
surprisingly I found this serum suits my skin type fine and although it is not a miracle kind of product but with long term use, gradually I have come to realized its benefit..
This is a very lightweight serum which is easily absorbs, for me this serum is perfect for summer use as summer in my place is hot and humid, I found most heavy serum too much for me
I will definitely repurchase as although the improvement is very subtle but it is definitely happening.
More reviews by MissPandamonium
I love this serum. It is lightweight gel type serum that is easily absorbed. I use this every morning after I have cleansed my face, as the light refreshing scent helps to wake me up. It is perfect for summer as it adds extra hydration without feeling heavy and like you have added too many products to your face after you have finished your whole routine.
It is almost similar to The Body Shop Nutriganics Drop Of Youth in texture. Though, I much prefer the Green Tea Seed Serum as it is lighter, spreads easier and is absorbed a lot quicker.
However, I haven't noticed any miracles or great changes to my skin. I just love the scent, refreshing feeling and the fact that it doesn't break me out. And I have pretty oily/sensitive/acne prone skin so that in itself is just super.
I believe it is great for all no matter what skin type you have, for a great wake me up call in the morning.
This is a great light-weight and non greasy serum. I put it on as the second step of my skin care routine after toner. It sinks in fast within 10 - 15 seconds and makes my skin feel moisturized and clean. It doesn't clog my pores and doesn't leave a residue either. I bought the 80ml bottle about 6 months ago and from using it twice a day, I still have at least 20% left. So it is a good value for your money. Overall after using it for 6 months I can say my skin is overall much smoother and less problematic. By that I mean I'm less prone to irritation, redness, pimples, and blackheads. It might feel like it doesn't do much, but after you use it for a long time, you can really see the benefits. I highly recommend this to anyone with sensitive skin or problematic skin because it can really help.
3 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
A simple, nice and lightweight serum that's great for people who generally have normal skin and need a slight skin booster. I liked it, and while it didn't drastically improve my skin, it was a great serum to use during the summer when I didn't want to use anything too heavy and thick on my oily skin.
It's light enough to be used day and night. It absorbs quickly, works great under makeup and doesn't leave any weird residue or add an oily film to the skin. I would repurchase it again for the warmer months.
Didn't break out on me or aggravate my sensitive skin.
But I didn't think it does anything either.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This serum was absorbed immediately by my skin. It's supposed to be moisturising but it mattifies my face instead. There would a layer of shine but it would disappear after a while.
I guess it would be an ideal day serum because it controls oil very well. Sadly, I have dry skin so it didn't do anything to my face.

Measuring a Woman's Measurements
New web-based research has quantified the attractiveness of the female form. Using morphing software, German researchers manipulated the features of one woman into 243 variations with differing leg lengths, weights, bust sizes, and hip and waist widths. Then more than 34,000 people judged the attractiveness of the images. While the woman's face remained exactly the same in all of the photos, researchers found that participants judged those images with smaller waist-to-hip ratios and lower body weights as being more attractive, confirming previous findings that these features are the most important predictors for an 'ideal' figure. This study appears in the March 2009 issue of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, the official medical journal of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons.
By The Numbers:
- Nearly 302,000 liposuction procedures were performed in 2007, according to ASPS statistics.
Doing a Double-Take
A new study takes a unique approach to evaluate the efficacy of different face lifting techniques on two sets of identical twins. Four different surgeons performed four different techniques (lateral SMASectomy with extensive skin undermining, composite rhytidectomy, SMAS-platysma flap with bidirectional lift, and endoscopic mid-face lift with open anterior platysmaplasty) on each of the four patients. An independent surgeon then photographed the patients at one, six and ten years postoperatively. The overall questions examined by the researchers, who were all ASPS Member Surgeons from Texas, New York, California and Maryland, were if there is a 'best' technical approach to facial rejuvenation and whether different technical approaches produce different aesthetic results. While researchers did have some differing opinions, it was noted at the 10-year mark that 'everybody had a really good result and there were more similarities than differences [among the siblings].

Hi everyone. I got led here by searching Google for the subject above and one reference was to some dialogues on this forum. However these posts were back in February from what I can tell. So I am starting a new "thread". Hopefully this will somehow reach those who can help me. Older posts searched on this forum also had lots of people with questions about how to grow cacao from seed, but they were just that, questions! I didn't see any ANSWERS!
OK. I just got in some fresh (very fresh) cacao fruits from my buddy in Brazil. This is my second time to try this and my first time was a complete failure. I am determined this time to succeed! For one thing I am in a better season now, with the days getting longer and warmer here in Washington (Spokane). It may be that germinating cacao is as hard as falling off the proverbial log. Because I have read they (the seeds) germinate INSIDE the fruit! But I want to grow mine outside of the fruit! LOL. So please anybody, HELP! If you are all really good at helping me I'll even share some of my seeds. But I need to get them into the soil and going as they have a short period of viability, so I've been told. Again thanks. Hoping this gets to that special person who "knows how", I remain, yours truly, Breck |
Follow-Up Postings:
Well, cacao likes heat and damp... So, if you can give it say 80ş or more, and keep the soil damp, you will have baby cacaos. I have never had trouble... but the key is heat. Where they grow naturally doesn't usually get below 80ş during the winter. |
yeap, heat and also lot´s of relative humidity. |
No need to remove the slimy white covering on the seeds? |
I would remove it... mine arrived without it. I'd do this now... you really need them FRESH. |
Hi. Yours arrived without the white membraneous covering on the seeds? Did yours arrive with the seeds already out of the fruits? Mine came inside the fruits. I opened up the one fruit that was blackened on the outside cause I figured it was already rotting and it was. So I removed the good seeds and float-tested them and all were "sinkers". Now I have these in a damp cloth so they won't dry out whilst I try to get info on all this. Also I have heard several times that the seeds germinate whilst INSIDE the fruits. IF this is so, then obviously one doesn't need to remove the membranes from the seeds! But I hear both ways. Any more info you can give me, please? By the way I have PLENTY of seeds... |
What more do you need? I have germinated about 15 seeds over the years... I lost a bunch back before I could find ANY info online.... They are picky in their sunshine needs... dappled sun is great. Humidity and heat are a plus. I don't think you need any more information. Unless you are a beginning gardener. Just plant the guys a couple of inches down, give lots of heat and water and voila! |
What more I need? The answer to the same question I have been asking "do you need to remove the membranous coating on the seeds?". That's pretty straightforward I figured. And I don't appreciate your tone H. Either help out or keep quiet. |
Don't ask for help if you don't like the answer. You got your answer, looks like it isn't good enough for you, that's why I asked if you were a beginner. In fact, you got your answer from several people. If you don't like the answer, you are on your own. Don't get all huffy to me, biting the hand that feeds you. |

my most successfull method is this... get a very small pot, put the seeds in a moist mixture, like the miracle grow mix, then cover it with plastic wrap to keep in the moisture, then put it on a heating pad.. yes, a heating pad, set on low heat, it should germinate soon... this has worked for me on all types of hard to germinate plants/ trees... good luck.. |

Hi Can you tell me where I might buy these cacao seeds please? I live in England and would just like to try growing a couple. If you're happy to sell me a few I would be interested. Thanks |

Montoso gardens online has the fruits and/or seeds. I dont know if they ship to England, you could write them and ask... |

I just got a cacao seed in the mail and it was already germinating when it arrived. I planted it in a pot, put it in my car and covered with a plastic wrap for extra humidity. It's a different way of doing it, but we'll see if it works! |

Catavala, I live in zone 5A and grow citrus,tropical,and subtropical fruits..It is my oppinion that more folks should try new things! Kudos to you!! I too had failure my first time trying to germinate Cacao seed. A good friend told me on the second time around that my failure was in not removing the white jelly membrane from the seed. It has been known to inhibit germination. It degrades over time inside the fruit so that is why some seed you may get inside the fruit is already germinating and the fruit if fallen from the tree and left will germinate by itself over time.. We can't afford that luxury and We usually can't wait to "see" so we open and try and plant.. What worked for me was to open the pod and litterally put the seed in your mouth and "suck" the membrane off(it is quite good, but obviously don't do it if it is rotted inside). You can just kinda scrape gently to remove and wash in some clean water if you are not sure about the "sucking off" method. When clean you can plant in damp long fibered sphagnum moss(I put mine in a big zip lock)and place on a germination mat to keep it warm. Since the germination success goes down each day you don't get them started,they only have about a 10 day window before they are no good after removing them from the pod. I would get them in moss as soon as you can.. You can then plant them in a good well draining mix(I use citrus type soil) when you see good sprouts coming up. Plant the ones that sprout as needed. You may get a bit of fungus, I use a dilute peroxide/water wash on what ever ones need it as necessary and return them to the bag after replacing the area of moss where it sat with new. I have also dropped the seeds in the same dilute mix before putting in moss with same success.. Good luck to you!!!

I suppose there is such a thing as too much heat? I can do 90 degrees easy (even at night), but I assume that more than say 100 degrees would be unacceptable? Also, about how long does it take for seeds to germinate? Thanks! |

This is a blue ribbon recipe, one of our top-ranked of all time!

Bon Appétit | July 2005

I thought this came out fabulous. I didn't have an onion so I used onion powder, and not having real hardwood charcoal I added a bit of smoke flavored powder right into the burgers. I skipped the glaze (because I am lazy), and used chipotles in place of jalepenos as someone suggested. I only had one lime and I think the flavor of it really enhanced the sauce.The only thing I would do different is cut down on the cayenne in the burgers, I wouldn't touch it in the sauce, but that is just my taste. My son thought they were fine and weren't too hot. Someone mentioned this being time consuming but I had it ready and on the grill in less than 15 minutes. I cooked the bacon while I mixed up the burgers and while the grill heated I put together the sauce.
These are the best burgers I have ever made. It is hard for me to make any others after this one.
I won't be making regular hamburgers ever again. I halved the recipe and could have halved the recipe for the spicy ranch sauce again. You really only need a few tablespoons for each burger. I agreed with one of the other cooks and left out the lime juice entirely. I know that the coffee in the glaze sounds odd, but you CAN NOT leave it out! It adds to the smokey grilled flavor and the glaze makes the burgers really moist.
Excellent burger recipe! I made the recipe exactly as written. The only thing I would change would be to cut the amount of the lime juice in the ranch dressing to one or two Tbls. The lime flavor was just a bit much. This is now one of our favorite burger recipes.
Very Very good! Easy to make - would definitely make again - no more plain burgers after this! I halved the meat but left the other ingredients as is - should have halved the salt though! The glaze is really good and is a must. The ranch sauce recipe should be halved - there is way too much to go around. We melted White American cheese instead of cheddar and served with tomato slices and avocado. Don't forget the bacon. Yum yum....
I make these all the time, without the glaze, and they are a hit. I use the same amount of all the ingredients but I only use a pound of meat, the flavors really come through that way. I do bind them with one egg to keep them from falling apart on the grill (which they used to do before I added the egg). Nice and simple.

FDL Book Salon Welcomes Ben Freeman, The Foreign Policy Auction: Foreign Lobbying in America |
By: Michael K. Busch Sunday December 2, 2012 1:59 pm |
In The Foreign Policy Auction: Foreign Lobbying in America, Freeman unpacks the ways in which governments from around the world attempt to use finance capital to ensure that the sausage factory on Capitol Hill churns out American foreign policy in their favor. The book is unrelentingly thorough, engaging, and sober. "There is no arch-villain here," Freeman warns at the start, "no dark lord, no one to unmask at the end of the show. There are only politicians seeking reelection, lobbyists seeking more revenue, and foreign governments competing for influence over the most influential government the world has ever known."

I have one that I use to carry a K9 when wearing Docker-type slacks, gym shorts, and other loose fitting clothing. With practice, a fairly quick draw can be attained. It IS comfortable as the straps fit around your hipbones and you barely notice it being there. It also carries a spare magazine and maybe another trinket or two (spare key, etc.).
It does take a few trial runs to get it settled where you want it and to accomplish a few other private tasks, but all in all, it's a quite manageable method of carry. It's relatively inexpensive and has a 60 day return policy if the one you pick is a "standard" configuration.
Mine is a standard configuration and I like it. The wife, however, says she needs to do a little mod to it to conform the gun pocket a little more to the real shape of the gun. She says it'll take very little effort to do it, but really, I'm satisfied with the way it is. Listen to others, visit the site, and decide for yourself...with the return policy, you can't hardly go wrong.
Good luck...

I have spent the better part of my free time today researching the holster from the website, etc. I seemed odd at first, but I am warming up to the idea. I carry a kimber 3", and don't want to have to wear two shirts to cover the shoulder rig in the summer.
any one else out there have a comment.
I appreciate them all.

Don't have one not my thing, but they are a big thing on my home missouri carry website, The ones who have them swear by them. one of our missouri carry members carries a 500 S&W 4" 4 lb hand cannon in one 16/7 and say's he forget's it is even there. I haven't tried one, not sure I will but like I said the review's are good in my area.
Here is also one to consider! a Law Concealment System LCS II http://www.handgunconcealment.com/LCSII.htm it is more of a pouch as the smart carry or thunder wear is but keep's the gun above the waistband. That is my only ***** about the smart carry, I like the gun above the waistband, I would consider the SC for deep concealment though in the future.
Well, I have one and I cannot get it to be comfortable at all. The only gun I can carry with minimum discomfort is the Taurus 617 revolver, and it even pinches me once in awhile. I've tried the method suggested, and I've tried altering it, and I just can't get it to work without discomfort.
I think the LCSII mentioned above looks promising.
DOC - coupla years ago or more - chatted with Charlie about this - and ordered one. I can believe he does carry a 1911 in his.
I have reservations but - while I do not find this thinmg easy to use - boy is it ever deep concealment. You do have to practice ''things'' when using one and it sure is not my choice 99% of time.
I am tho pleased to have mine against the very occasional time I need to go max for concealment. Mine is large and will hold a full size but practically - I would restrict useage to something small like R9, if that could not be pocket carried.
I did tho try my SW99 in it and that felt great - not too heavy and a cinch to ''lose''. Main prob' is draw - it is far from rapid but hey - I'd rather deal with that hassle than have no gun at all.
Consider one but maybe not as a daily carry device - keep it tho for ''special occasions'' and you could well be pleased you have it on hand.

I love my smart carry. You can wear it above the waistband simply by pulling your weapon up to the level you want. Wear it normally and it is pretty much deep concealed. When I am going to my vehicle or get one of those "feelings", I will bring the butt up above the waistband. It conceals well with summer wear and most people if they do notice a bulge aren't gonna stare to figure if that is your gun or your weapon! To do #1, it may take some slight adjustments but when you get used to it, there are no problems.

I just got 1 a few weeks ago, and to my surprise....I Like It!!!!! Way more comfortable that I thought it would be. It is nice to have at times and works well!!!!
I was a little concerned about this before I wore one. Actually, when worn as suggested, your weapon sits in front of your "ween", even when sitting down. After wearing one, I'm no longer concerned about losing any private parts. As long as your legs aren't crossed, I'm pretty sure you would escape an AD (of your weapon....) without injury.Originally Posted by soflasmg
I disovered recently if you pull the SmartCarry up where the butt is above your waist and on your right hip, it makes a very affective comfortable IWB. You can tuck your shirt in all the way around and over the gun also. It's easy with the SmartCarry to just yank the shirt out and get to the weapon. That's the only way I use the SmartCarry now.
