Audible Spaces: Tristin Perich
September 5 - October 12
RECEPTION: September 5
Audibles Spaces features three installations spread across Brown University's campus that explore the dynamic relationship between sound and space. For the first installment of this exhibition, Tristan Perich's Microtonal Wall (2011) will be on display at the Granoff Center's Cohen Gallery. Drone like from a distance, the 25ft long 1-bit sound field dissolves into 1500 unique tonal variations up close, exposing the architecture of electronic sound itself, and the importance of positionality when listening.
Additional works in the Audible Spaces exhibition can be seen at the David Winton Bell Gallery.
SHE (Mother)
October 24 - December 3
RECEPTION: October 24 at the David Winton Bell Gallery, 64 College Street
Spanning a period of twenty-four years - from 1989 to 2013 - the paintings, sculptures, and videos in SHE present a broad-ranging survey of contemporary images of women. Drawn from a private collection, the exhibition includes work by artists, such as Jenny Saville and Cindy Sherman, for whom the position of women in society is a primary concern, alone with others who depict women more incidentally. Candice Brietz focuses on the portrayal of women in films, while the sometimes-controversial Lisa Yuskavage and John Currin reproduce images from popular magazines and soft-porn. The comic imagery of R. Crumb is channeled in Rebecca Warren's crudely rendered female figures. Reworking historic painting styles, Glenn Brown and George Condo create outrageous and gloriously painted women. The idiosyncratic work of Yayoi Kusama is represented by an unusual painted self-portrait, while Chris Ofili's Orgena depicts an iconic African beauty [The title is a reversal of "a negro."]. Finally, for artists Urs Fischer and Jeff Koons images of women are purely incidental—part and parcel of their Pop renderings. The works in SHE combine to present a select overview of art and its approaches to women at the turn of the century.
SHE is on display in the David Winton Bell Gallery through December 21, with Candice Brietz's Mother in the Cohen Gallery through December 3.

Brown-RISD Dual Degree Annual Exhibit
January 22 - February 12
RECEPTION: January 23, 7-9pm
The show focuses on themes of neighborliness, proximity, and foreign belonging. Students were inspired by manicured and overgrown yards, backyard BBQs and water gun fights, high fives, embracing awkwardness, and bumping into someone and forgetting their name. The Brown|RISD Dual Degree Program is a five-year program in which students are dually enrolled in Brown University and the Rhode Island School of design and may earn a Bachelor of Arts at Brown a Bachelor of Fine Arts at RISD. Since the program began in 2008, the students have continued to host an annual exhibition featuring their work. Works from the 5th Annual Exhibition can be viewed online at: http://portfolios.risd.edu/BRDDFULL
Chaise Three
February 19 - March 21
RECEPTION: March 7, 6-8pm
In 2004, a group of students started a multimedia publication called CHAISE as a way to distribute interdisciplinary artworks that normally aren't seen in the same context, like music and sculpture, film and interactive apps, photography and furniture. The DVD magazine was a response to a change in the climate of art-related media production and distribution. The media departments were transitioning from Steenbecks to Final Cut Pro and from 16mm to miniDV. They were among the first students to experience high-speed internet in the dorms, but distribution platforms like Vimeo and YouTube had not yet arrived. Ten years later, those students are still making weird stuff that shouldn't all fit together. Chaise Three features artworks by the founders of CHAISE, still crazy after all these years.
April 4 - April 30
Reception: Friday, April 4, 5-7pm
Lauren Gidwitz '06, Laini Nemett '06 and Ellen Uzane Schneiderman '05 each build, excavate, and de-construct their own work-sites in a studio space in Long Island City that they built themselves. Through various painterly processes, they create their own imagined landscapes - places that could never exist and only exist in the painting space.
An Installation by Daniel Clayman
May 16 - June 27
Reception: Thursday, May 22, 5-7pm
Light passing through any transparent material is assigned an Abbe Value, a mathematical number expressing how much light is dispersed upon passing through a material with a particular refractive index. Working with the Abbe Value and the ensuing quality of light, Dispersions becomes three things at once: a lens projecting and bending light, a filter changing the color and pattern and an object that redefines the space through its towering presence. As the light shines through the antique glass a stage set is born. Dappled light, projected by the object, becomes a device to capture a moment, in particular, summer sun filtering through trees.
Ars Necronomica: Mythos and Legacy from the Weird to the Bleak
August 20 - September 13
Ars Necronomica is a three-part exhibition that will redefine Lovecraft in the visual arts with a body of new work by contemporary fine, commercial and outsider artists in examination of the life and creative output of a literary iconoclast. Nothing but the expected is off limits. This series of events is being held in conjunction with NecronomiCon Providence, and exploration of the intersections of the arts and sciences in the creative legacy of author H.P. Lovecraft, being held August 22 - 25, 2013, in his beloved home city of Providence, RI.
Toluca Editions: 6 Projects
September 26 - October 18
Toluca Editions: 6 projects is the first exhibition (2009) in the United States of the young art publishing house founded in Paris in 2003 by Alexis Fabry and Olivier Andreotti. Each Toluca publication is the result of an intimate collaboration between an artist -using the medium of photography- a writer, and a designer. The artist's book as we have known it since the early 20th century gives way to a hybrid art object, taking up a novel position in the field. In 2008, the 16 works published by Toluca were exhibited at Mexico City's Museum of Modern Art in a scenography conceived by Mauricio Rocha one of Mexico's leading figures in contemporary architecture. Opening: Thursday, September 26 at 5:30pm.

The work will span the 10-year history of Steel Yard Public Projects and incorporate the work of over 50 artists, youth interns, students, and community members who contributed to the designs. The opening will be a celebration of local capacity, community efforts and innovation.

It's moving in a clear libertarian direction now, and anyone not moving with them is going to be left out in the cold, no matter how much money Karl Rove can raise for them. There are fundamental things that Christie will have a hard time speaking to - and he knows it too, which is why he's trying to attack Rand Paul now.
Mark my words - it'll come down to Paul, Cruz, and Christie, and in that equation Paul will walk away with the nomination. Cruz will end up Senate majority leader. Christie will end up golfing with Romney and Obama somewhere.

'White House Down': Look, it's 'Fallen' again
A movie review of "White House Down," which feels like a rerun of "Olympus Has Fallen." This time it's Channing Tatum riding to the rescue of the embattled president played by Jamie Foxx.
Special to The Seattle Times
Movie Review
'White House Down,' with Channing Tatum, Jamie Foxx, Jason Clarke, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Joey King. Directed by Roland Emmerich, from a screenplay by James Vanderbilt. 137 minutes. Rated PG-13 for prolonged sequences of action and violence including intense gunfire and explosions, some language and a brief sexual image. Several theaters.
Sa-a-a-y, didn't we just see this movie? The White House seized by heavily armed terrorists? Oodles of gunfire? Lots of explosions? Mass casualties? A lone outsider riding to the rescue of the captive president, guns blazing?
It's déjà-kablooey all over again in "White House Down."
Herewith, a handy guide on how to tell this movie apart from "Olympus Has Fallen," which was released this past March.
The terrorists. "Olympus": North Korean meanies. "White House": a grab bag of disaffected domestic nasties including white supremacists, an embittered Special Forces guy and a tech-savvy NSA geek — talk about your ripped-from-the-headlines relevance!
The president. "Olympus": a charisma-impaired punching bag played by Aaron Eckhart, who is biff-zocked to a fare-thee-well by the baddies. "White House": the way-charismatic Jamie Foxx, who proves himself a handy hand with a submachine gun and a rocket-propelled grenade launcher — take that, you rascals!
The savior. "Olympus": the ruggedly handsome Gerard Butler, playing a deskbound Secret Service agent suddenly back in the fray. "White House": the smoothly handsome Channing Tatum, playing a Secret Service agent wannabe deemed not to have the Right Stuff until all hell breaks loose.
The kid. "Olympus": the president's precocious young son. "White House": the hero's precocious young daughter. Both are hunted by the snarling terrorists to serve as hostages/bargaining chips.
The ancillary damage. "Olympus": sorry about that, Washington Monument. "White House": adios, Capitol Dome.
The bullets: Every round fired by the bad guys in both movies kills a good guy while the good guys can't ever seem to find their targets. Except for the hero. Who in each case dodges thousands of rounds while dropping bad guys by the bushel.
Roland Emmerich, the director of "White House," has destroyed the place twice already, first by alien zap ray in "Independence Day" and then by tidal wave in "2012," so maybe that, and the fact that this picture is following so soon in the wake of Antoine Fuqua's "Olympus," has something to do with why this movie feels so perfunctory. His slam-bang succession of dire situations — Don't kill that child! Don't launch those nukes! — is so relentless it becomes tedious.
This rerun quickly runs out of steam.

Definitely a pretty and neutral glitter. Tons of fallout though, but shadows with micro glitter in general have tons of fallout, even some expensive eyeshadows, so I'm not going to blame ELF for that.
If you tap your brush to get rid of the excess and use a sticky base like a primer or cream eyeshadow, it should minimize fallout.
I like to wear this during the daytime. It's not so shimmery that your eyes look like disco balls in the sunlight but it adds a subtle sparkly effect and it's a neutral colour so it's not too bold. The price is fantastic.

i got this as a gift for Christmas one year and at first i loved it. It was a great accent on top of a matte eyeshadow and a good highlight color to add a little sparkle and flare to your makeup. But i found after a while there was a TON of fallout and it smudged a lot and i ended up getting glitter over my whole entire face half the time, i heard there's a special brush you can buy to use with this palette, but i wouldn't bother.

Not really a fan of these. They are dry and have a ton of fallout. I have seen that ELF offers a glitter eyeshadow brush and am considering purchasing to see if it helps, but so far, I am not impressed.

By Jim Amato: Nino Benvenuti may be considered among the best amateur boxers of all time. He had a great professional career too. His first loss was on a highly disputed decision to Ki Soo Kim. He would win two out of three in a legendary middleweight trilogy with the highly respected Emile Griffith. Eventually though his star would diminish.. There was a non title draw in 1968 against Akron, Ohio's rugged Doyle Baird. It was a fight many thought Doyle won. Then came a loss to the terrific Dick Tiger. Then a life and death DQ win over Fraser Scott. Nino was then cut and on the verge of losing before he landed a left hook on slick Luis Rodriguez to retain his title. In Nino's next bout he was halted by Tom " The Bomb " Bethea. Benvenuti had obviously under rated Bethea the first time around as he whipped Tom good in a rematch. Still you could see Nino was not the fighter of days gone by. In November of 1970 enter Argentina's Carlos Monzon. A disputed draw against the feared Bennie Briscoe earned Carlos a rating. Still Carlos was not considered a serious challenge to Nino's crown. WRONG !!! Maybe Nino was on the downside of his fabulous career. Maybe a prime Benvenuti would have fared better against Monzon In my opinion Nino is lucky he met Monzon when he did. Any sooner would have resulted in the end of Nino' s title reign. Make no mistake about it folks, Carlos owned Nino. Benvenuti could not intimidate Monzon. Carlos could have cared less about Nino's complaints to the referee. To Monzon it was a street fight with a few rules. He mugged Nino. Along the eighth, ninth and tenth rounds Nino realized his dilemma. He could not hurt Carlos and he could not deter his aggressiveness. He knew he was doomed. Give Nino his due. He was a proud champion and he would go out on his shield. That is just what he did in round twelve as a Monzon right left him in a heap. Nino's title was gone. Again a case can be made that Nino was past his prime. In his next fight he lost a decision to Monzon's countryman Jose Chirino. Still Monzon-Benvenuti II took place. This was child's play for Carlos as he dominated Nino until the fight was stopped in the third round. There is no doubt in my mind that Nino would have lost to Carlos anytime they fought

Bed was very comfortable. Staff was super friendly.
It was louder than anticipated for a Monday night (and late into the night as things were being broken down or something outside of my window. Lots of loud banging. The room had a hint of shabbiness to it (especially the window coverings, tv, etc.) The shower flow was not good.
Funky place in the heart of the funky side of Portland.
Rooms are a tad small but not a big deal. Bathrooms could use more shelves.
Staff was very accommodating
That it was convenient for me to get around downtown. And the friendly service
The room smelled kinda funky and the coffee filter wasn't cleaned out
The hotel was great. Location was easy, the room was beautiful, and the staff were friendly. The french press in the room was a perfect touch and the corner view was perfect. Check in and out was incredibly quick and easy. Really a great staff.
The walls were paper thin! Twice we had a grumpy neighbor come and bang on our adjacent door telling us to quiet down. first time we were enjoying some wine and we did get in a bit late, so understandable. The second night we were simply watching a movie at 8pm. Ridiculous thing to deal with considering how much we payed to stay there. In the mornings when they woke up I could hear them arguing over itineraries and even zipping up their luggage. Careful those walls are THIN!! This was the executive king room.
the pillows
that wifi wasn't complimentary, that the shower head wasn't secure and would droop down on its own. no bath tub
Great room, clean and nicely setup. Location great for walking around the area
Very noisy area at night, people partying and yelling in the street below until 2 am.
The young lady at the front desk was excellent. First I go to the wrong Hilton which is across the street she checks me in anyway. Then my wife and I come down the look around your city. And there she is at the front desk. She gives us great directions and great suggestions. Blonde with glasses.
Loved it all
the staff was lovely and very helpful.
No fans in the bathroom, views were weak, sauna and steam room was in the other building, which I found annoying.
First time to Portland and The Nines had it all, location, convenience, style, etc. i booked off Kyak and couldn't be more pleased. I expect to be back multiple times next year.
They upgraded my room when my original room wasn't ready on check in, and they sent a complimentary bottle of champagne to my room because it was my 21st birthday!
Hotel was quite expensive for the size of the rooms
Very clean and tastefully appointed. A great place to decompress.
housekeeping was excellent banquet staff was excellent excellent location hotel for 20s and 30s
Front desk staff was all business, condescending and rude our king room was miniscule bathrooms lacked safety bars parking rules were never made clear
the room was clean
lobby was way to small and noisy
The front desk was very friendly. Close to Moda Center and restaurants.
We had no hot water in the morning. The breakfast bar was now replenished in a timely manner. We are supposed to be getting a 50% refund from you because we had no hot water.
We were looking for a decent place to stay at a decent rate, should have skipped the rate part! The first hostess was less than friendly and seemed quite irritated with people trying to check in. The next hostess was friendly but new to the hotel and unfamiliar with the area. The room was clean but smelled horribly of mildew. The location is great, but look elsewhere for a room even if you plan to spend your time exploring Portland.
Very nice room with nice view. Loved the restaurant connected to it. The people that work there are very nice. Overall it was a great place to stay. Will stay at the same place next time I go Portland
We specifically requested two beds. Did mobile check in, where we again requested two beds. Got to the hotel and was surprised with only one. Would've been at a better hotel for same price if we'd known.
The receptioni staff were excellent. They upgraded our room after we told them of our vacation from hell just a month earlier. The location was perfect for us. It is close to the business area, the college and some of Portland best food. Loved it and would stay again.
Have stayed there before and the Hotel is lovely. Bit of a remodel going on, but it's not intrusive. Service is attentive and Portland-friendly.
The parking charge of $36 overnight is usurious; we had to park two cars and when asked if they would comp one of them due to our circumstances, they refused. This will cause me to stay someplace else next time.
The staff is very friendly, knowledgable and helpful. They have excellent advice on fun excursions. I also liked the bathroom had a separate bathtub and the spacious shower had a rainfall shower head
The bed was not as comfortable as other Westin beds, The mattress and sheets needs replacing. The towels in the bathroom were also old and rough.
Great central "home base" location for a portland vacation. Almost everything we wanted to see or do was walkable from here. The room had a great view, room was clean, staff was friendly, and they had a phenomenal gym that is open 24 hours! Would definitely stay here again on my next visit.
Here's why:
We're not the seller At KAYAK we don't set prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We aggregate tons of data for you Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we don't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time? Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find on occasion that certain prices are no longer available.
More questions or if you have a bad price to report to us Please send us an email and someone from our team will get back to you promptly.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Buddy Jr!
Facts about Buddy Jr
- Breed: Pug
- Color: Tan/Yellow/Fawn
- Age: Adult
- Size: Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
- Sex: Male
Buddy Jr's Info...
I am already neutered, housetrained, purebred, a special needs pet, up to date with shots, good with kids, and good with dogs.
Hello, my name is Buddy Jr. I'm receiving lots of TLC at my foster home with my friend Tibbie. We came to rescue together from an owner surrender who didn't have the time to care for us properly. I'm 7 years old, weigh 18 pounds and have been given the full treatment since coming to rescue. My mouth was in terrible shape and I had to have 8 bad teeth pulled when I had my dental and neuter. My family told rescue I lost my left eye due to an infection many years ago. I get around just fine with my good one and my foster Mom is planning on getting me a cool pirate costume for Halloween! I was also updated on my vaccinations but unfortunately I tested positive for heartworms and will have to undergo treatment as soon as I am strong enough! I'm the typical happy go lucky pug and want nothing more than to be close to my humans 24/7! And did I mention I am perfectly potty trained? If you think I would fit in with your family, please ask for me on your application! I am being fostered in the Panhandle and my adoption fee is only $200!
Other Pets at Pug Rescue of Florida, Inc.
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Buddy Jr, a Windermere Pug dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Pug for sale in Windermere, or seeking a Pug dog from a breeder in Windermere.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Windermere already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Windermere breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Pug breeders who help with Pug rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Windermere paves the way for another one to be saved.


text: I know what you are thinking food and being sedentary. What I really mean is, as you were gaining weight did you notice from the moment it started? Were you aware of the pounds, as they were increasing? Or were you more like me who was kind of oblivious? I feel like the pounds came slow and steady, but when I realized I was fat it felt like it happened over night as opposed to the slow climb it really was. So how did it happen for you?


text: I have a 1.8TDCi Titanium (2007, 57 reg) with automatic headlights, and was wondering where the sensor is located, as when the lights come on after going through a tunnel etc, they stay on and do not go off. I have tried to turn the lights off and then back on to the auto switch, but they still stay on. The only way I can get them off is too turn the engine off, then on again and then they turn off. Can anyone help??

Specializing in skin-softening and pore-purifying nonsurgical treatments, Aesthetíque Impressions employs trained techniques to refresh and restore skin. Certified aesthetician Margarita, who spends her off hours providing complimentary beauty treatments to cancer patients, is a skin soothsayer, using her decade of experience to brighten and revitalize each bit of visage-vellum she encounters. An intense-cleansing facial will refresh the body's naturally occurring billboard with an exhilarating cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, massage, and mask, and the naturally occurring salicylic acid in the pumpkin peel will purge pores and boost circulation with an infusion of nutritious vitamins.
La Dermique Skin Rejuvenation & Body Contouring Center?s board-certified surgeons, registered nurses, and master aestheticians keep their fingers on the pulse of emerging technologies they can potentially use in their minimally invasive treatments. Simple aesthetic procedures, such as microdermabrasion and photofacials, rejuvenate dull, aging skin, whereas Botox and dermal fillers temporarily remedy wrinkles for a smooth, supple complexion. Thermilift, one of the center's newer treatments, sends sound waves below the skin?s surface to gently heat tissues and simulate the effects of a face-lift, all without incisions or cheek suspenders. La Dermique?s technicians also wield lasers, including Smartlipo Triplex technology, to permanently destroy fat and remove unwanted body hair and tattoos.
Ambiance HR and Laser Center offers several services for clients seeking a nonsurgical means of treating hair loss, including hair replacement, laser hair therapy, hair therapy treatments, and laser hair removal. In addition to its hair-cultivating prowess, the team also uses spa expertise to supply clients with microdermabasion treatments, IP skin treatments, chemical peels, facial treatments, and waxing.
While one staffer carefully draws on an intricate henna tattoo, another uses two twisted threads to cleanly remove unwanted facial hair. This is the Threading & Henna Salon, where the team specializes in Indian beauty services, including herbal facials. The licensed aestheticians are also experts in waxing and makeup applications, which they can tailor to a night out, a wedding, or an afternoon black-tie barbecue.
As a certified electrologist, Donna Crump has spent the last 15 years honing her skills by removing hair on men and women. Donna uses the FDA-approved hair removal treatment to whisk away unsightly hair permanently over the course of a few sessions. Each non-invasive treatment lasts between 15 minutes to an hour.
Tina Malooly-McCaffrey—a sufferer of severe acne with a family history of skin cancer—has devoted her career to learning about dermis health, and she founded Advanced Skincare in 1989 to help patrons realize dreams of glowing complexions. The licensed cosmetologist, massage therapist, laser technician, and skincare educator has gathered a team of licensed and certified pampering professionals to rejuvenate facades. With every service, from anti-aging facials to microdermabrasion treatments to help blast away dead skin cells and outdated "Vote for Lincoln" henna tattoos, the staff assesses skin and health for personalized treatment plans. Beyond skincare, the beauty experts also apply professional-level makeup and administer advanced IPL hair removal for the entire body to save clients the hassle of waxing, tweezing, or rolling on a pile of Velcro.

I'm so excited to see this--- it's the first time I've planted them, and I planted quite a bunch (about 30.) Should I fertilize them now that they have sprouted? If so, with what? Thanks so much
On a separate note, how often should I be watering my tulips that are now about 1/2 foot high? Should I just always check the soil and make sure it is not dry? When they are in the ground I usually just leave them alone, but these are in containers (just moved them outside as it is int he 50's here in Cleveland.) |

I have grown allium for a few years now and I do not fertilize them at all and they have done great for me. Because they are a bulb, I would fertilize them in the summer/fall when they are recharging for next year if you 'need' to fertilize. Tulips in your pots..... I would keep them moist. They stay pretty moist in the ground in Spring, so I would mimic mother nature's pattern. Hopefully it is well draining soil in your pots as well Keriann~ Woo-Hoo SPRING!! |
Thank you Keriann. I will leave them be! I did use well draining soil in the tulips (and put broken pieces of pots at the bottom.) The more shallow planted bulbs are coming right up and greening up nicely. I planted 2 in deep ceramic pots, and only 2 sprouts are coming up... none have sprouted in the other. I'm wondering if those did indeed rot out. I'm beginning to think that the key to this overwintering is shallow containers. I saw that on an ehow video last year---she said she plants her tulips only about 3-4 inches down so they don't rot. Maybe there's something to that... |
Hmmm.... I planted five groupings of 5 bulbs and I have 3 rogue globemasters sprouting up! Is it actually possible they multiplied? I thought if that happened it wouldn't happen until the next season---I just planted them in October. Well of course I'm thrilled if that is indeed the case (more bang for my buck!) BUT, I have a pretty formal design, and the allium are planted along side the columns in front. These 3 extras are out on their own and will look silly where they are. What options do I have as far as moving them? Thanks so much |
I've never had them multiply. They are sterile so they shouldn't be seeding at all. Boy, with their price, I wish they would! Gorgeous though. |
I planted five groupings of 5 bulbs and I have 3 rogue globemasters sprouting up! Is it actually possible they multiplied? If they were good sized bulbs, I'd think they could send up 2 blooms. Per the link below..."Do not plant too closely together since they multiply rapidly. Water well throughout the growing season. " |
Here is a link that might be useful: Planting Globe Master Alliums
Yes, they have definitely multiplied. I planted 30 and now I have 33. Uh oh, I did plant closely.... Stupid question, but for normal people (not type A formal planters such as myself) wouldn't multiplying be a bonus? Why would the link suggest NOT planting closely? Being that they're so expensive.... In my case, I don't want those 3 bulbs sitting there. What should I do? If I dig them up carefully can I move them closer to the others? |
Why would the link suggest NOT planting closely? Because when they multiply, they have split, and those split bulbs will grow larger and split, etc. I most things, if not given good spacing when initially planted, they will soon become crowded, and bloom less and less, making it necessary to dig and divide them. In my case, I don't want those 3 bulbs sitting there. What should I do? If I dig them up carefully can I move them closer to the others? If I dig them up carefully can I move them closer to the others? Sue |
What I should have said is they will not come true from seed if they self sow. I've never had any of mine self sow or multiply at all. Maybe your's did self sow? |

Carson Smith plans to attend an Ivy League school. | Supplied photo by Laurel DeGonia
Updated: September 19, 2014 6:13AM
Carson Smith, a senior-to-be at Stagg High School in Palos Hills, seems to excel at everything she tries.
She has her sights set on attending an Ivy League college next year. Meanwhile, she's busy adding credentials to her resume and helping people at the same time.
For the last two years, Smith, 17, has participated in a health sciences internship at Harvard University.
Two years ago, she contacted the Harvard School of Public Health and let them know that she was interested in medical research. That initiative earned her an invitation to come to Harvard for a three-week internship last June working in the epidemiology department.
"Our research looked at male medical professionals and whether their chances of getting prostate cancer was higher than the average male," Smith said.
"I'm really interested not just in working with medicine but helping people in general, so I really loved how people in research are really helping a lot of people at once with a really big program," she said.
She repeated the experience this year when she spent four weeks in June working in the epidemiology department.
"I researched studies relating to racial disparities in prostate cancer," Smith said. "The prostate cancer research group is looking to start a new study by analyzing cohorts and the lower survival rate of African-American men from prostate cancer-specific mortality. Researching old studies, part of my job, aids in designing the new study model."
She also aided the Health Professionals' Follow-up Study by logging tissue samples and contacting medical facilities in order to obtain these samples.
"While last year I only obtained a basic understanding of prostate cancer research, this year I was able to get a more detailed look at the research process and have a more influential role in this process. I even had the chance to create my own abstract," Smith said. "I loved the experience, but in the future, I'd rather work more with the actual patients. I'd rather work for people and be a doctor who can help with people going through not just the physical trauma but the emotional part, too."
She had no sooner returned home when she packed her bags and left for Dartmouth College, where she attended College Horizons, a Native American writing and college preparation program to which she was accepted.
In addition, she regularly visits the Czech Republic during the summers to teach English to children. She recently returned from her third trip, which is organized through the youth group at her church, Parkview Christian Church in Orland Park.
"They only speak Czech, so it is very hard for them to learn English. We have a great relationship with these kids," she said.
At school, she has a grade-point average of 4.81 and participates in varsity cross country, varsity track, mathletes, National Honor Society, sports med club and Spanish Honor Society, and she volunteers with the St. Baldrick's committee.
With this resume, she is determined to go to the college of her choice, whether it be an Ivy League school or one of her other choices, including Northwestern University, Georgetown University, the University of Illinois or the University of Chicago.
"I have never seen a more dedicated student," Stagg Associate Principal Deb Baker said. "She has a big heart and truly enjoys everything she does.
"Carson doesn't participate in all of her activities to fill up her transcript. She truly cares and wants to make a difference. Carson exhibits a level of maturity for a junior in high school that is unmatched."
Smith, who is part Native American and has a Native American card for the Choctaw Tribe in Oklahoma, ultimately hopes to someday work in the medical field in a Native American community.
The daughter of Robert and Michelle Smith, of Palos Park, she said her father is her mentor.
"My dad, because he is a very patient person and he thinks things through," she said. "He has certain characteristics that I'd like to achieve and he supported himself through college without a lot of family support, which is very inspiring. He's a great father, very helpful and caring, and he inspired me to have a stronger relationship with God. So in all of those aspects he has contributed to the person I am today. He's helping me get to where I want to be.
"My parents are really good at focusing me on my goals and being there for support, but more important, I want to have a real successful future and I know the benefits I will have if I give my all to school. I have good teachers, really good family and my youth group."

Question: Anyone out there have a Hampton HI300 in enamel that has been in use for several years? Does the enamel finish hold up over time? I heard it can chip. On the flip side, does anyone have any comments on the durability of the Metallic/classic black finish? I have read they can dull after a period of heavy use and to keep them looking nice they have to be re-painted. Again, I am talking about the Hampton HI300 insert, so it would only be the front of the unit that would be visible. I have spent the last several days reading everything I can find and viewing completed installs (thanks for posting pics!) but there is little or no information on the finish durability. Also any additional pics of this unit installed would be appreciated. |

The Satanic Verses
The Satanic Verses is Salman Rushdie's fourth novel, first published in 1988 and inspired in part by the life of Prophet Muhammad.

The Caribbean is becoming an increasingly dangerous way station for drug traffickers.
SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic — Five Dominicans killed for knowing too much about a drug lord. Spiking murder rates in Puerto Rico. Shootings in the normally paradise-like islands of Saint Kitts and Nevis.
Long before Kingston, Jamaica, erupted in violence last week, the Caribbean was already becoming an increasingly dangerous way station for drug traffickers.
With the United States and Mexico working to tighten their border, which is the preferred drug trafficking route, the Caribbean is "re-emerging as a corridor" for South American drugs to get to the U.S., said Dominican security expert Lilian Bobea.
"It was out the picture for a few years," Bobea said. "Now, cartels are looking for more routes and that's leading to a kind of revival of drug-related conflict in the Caribbean."
The Obama administration has taken notice, pledging $45 million to combat drug trafficking under the recently launched Caribbean Basin Security Initiative. The initiative seeks to control "spillover" from the Mexican and Central American trafficking channels.
Last year, the State Department's Deputy Assistant Secretary for the Caribbean Julissa Reynoso told a House committee that drug "traffickers will continue to expand operations throughout the region by exploiting these vulnerable transit routes, undermining local governments."
Dominican Republic President Leonel Fernandez confirmed Reynoso's fears last month, saying the region was "overwhelmed. … In recent years, the region has been threatened by the increase of drug trafficking, violence and organized crime."
That threat came into sharp relief last week when police tried to capture alleged drug lord Christopher "Dudus" Coke in his stronghold neighborhood of Tivoli Gardens in west Kingston, Jamaica's capital.
Coke faces extradition to the U.S., where he would face drug trafficking and arms dealing charges. Jamaican media describe him as a politically connected "don," whose generosity in Tivoli Gardens has made him something of a messiah for many residents.
When police came to arrest Coke on the weekend of May 22, armed gangs retaliated, attacking police and blocking streets. By week's end, 74 were dead and 500 others had been arrested.
Coke, leader of the "Shower Posse," which got its name from showering rivals with bullets during 1980s cocaine wars, was not captured. Jamaican media reported he escaped.
Whatever the outcome for Coke, the violence in Kingston illustrates the power drug traffickers can wield.
"The key thing [in the Jamaica situation] is the connection between the Shower Posse and political officials," said Desmond Arias, a John Jay College of Criminal Justice professor who writes frequently on security in Jamaica. Coke, who describes himself as a businessman, received numerous government contracts. The Tivoli Gardens neighborhood he controls is represented in Parliament by Prime Minister Bruce Golding.
Golding refused to extradite Coke for about nine months before ordering his arrest last week amid mounting pressure. But he has denied any links to Coke and his gang.

Nona, those look really nice! Like the little fella in the Christmas one. Bet they look really pretty in the room at night when they are on. Luvs |
Nona, you did those?? You just do it all, don't you? :) I wish we could see them lit up too, but the pic probably wouldn't do them justice. Are you doing those for gifts or for yourself? Very pretty. Great job! ~Anj |

We are an active, retired couple who love to share our Frisco property with family, friends and renters. We have two small businesses; one selling electric bikes and a second that coordinates senior moves. Since both businesses are part-time, we enjoy free time in Frisco which is only 1 1/2 hours from our home in a Denver suburb.
The Owner purchased this townhome in 2003
We have a quiet location with the best view in Frisco, overlooking the Continental Divide with a glimpse of Lake Dillon. We are close to several major ski areas and Main Street Frisco with its great restaurants and stores.
We love to relax by the fire or in the hot tub, play ping-pong in our gameroom and cook in our beautiful, new kitchen. The bike path right outside our front door becomes a cross country trail in the winter. We hike, snow shoe, dine out and value special time with children, granddaughter and friends.
Sharon and Stan, thank you for sharing your townhouse with us over the last
four nights. Your place is beautiful!!! It was very inviting, comfortable and the
perfect place for our family gathering. The views were simply breath taking!
Location was perfect for all our winter activities. We can certainly see why you
have so many repeat visitors. We hope the possibility to rent from you presents
itself for us again.

City edge through on penalties
19 Mar 2009 - 23:19:32
Shay Given was Manchester City's penalty shoot-out hero as Mark Hughes' side edged past Aalborg to seal a place in the last eight of the UEFA Cup.
City appeared to be easing their way into the quarter-finals until the last six minutes of normal time when the Danish side scored twice to make it 2-2 on aggregate and force extra-time.
There were no more goals in the extra 30 minutes but former Newcastle United keeper Given saved from Thomas Augustinussen and Luton Shelton in the shoot-out as City eventually won 4-3 on penalties.
At the start of the game Robinho had an early effort blocked while Ched Evans also wasted a good opportunity.
Stephen Ireland's16th-minute shot curled over while at the other end Aalborg were restricted to several promising crosses that eventually came to nothing.
Nedum Onuoha cleared a dangerous ball that was meant for Shelton away for a corner while Robinho was denied by goalkeeper Karim Kaza just before the break.
Aalborg began to look more dangerous in the opening moments of the second period and Caca hit a low shot just wide of Given's left-hand post before the referee waved away further penalty appeals when City substitute Javier Garrido appeared to bring Andreas Johansson down.
The game appeared to be heading towards a goalless draw until the 84th minute when Shelton lashed the ball home just after Robinho had hit the crossbar for the visitors.
As the game moved into stoppage time, Aalborg grabbed a dramatic second goal when Evans handled the ball inside the area and Michael Jakobsen slammed home the resulting penalty.
But City held their nerve in the shoot-out, scoring all four of their spot-kicks while Given kept out efforts by the unfortunate Augustinussen and Shelton.
