Knight Transportation, Inc. (NYSE: KNX), one of North America's largest truckload transportation companies, today reported revenue and net income for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2011.

How do you get going again after pregnancy?
Arghhh. Lost massive post yesterday and now forgotten what posted. I have swim mining offer at mo too. £12 for 12 swims but needs to be used in 8 weeks. Currently using that pool once a week as it's near work not home, but still a huge saving as it's £3.80 there.
Running eye totty. Well the chap I was going to Cornwall with in June for the coastal path ultra is quite good looking, much to hubbies annoyance. He calls him my 'toy boy'. He is only 27!!!. I run with the blokes from the club all the time just because I am quick and no other women to run with. I love the banter but they do forget I'm there sometimes !!!
After another week of complete rest apart from 3k swim Monday morning before work. I naughtily ran yesterday though. Physio had told me will be a couple of weeks yet, but I so needed some fresh air so just went. Managed 25 mins with zero pain. Rather chuffed, so rest again today as hubbie away and with swim lessons and long day at work it would gave been 8pm before I got on the bike or xtrainer. Opened some wine instead!!! Will try another run tom pm when boys at footie training.
So proud of my baby girl tonight. First after school swim lesson tonight after her teacher suggested to move her up from the Friday daytime classes as she can swim. She was amazing. Not 4 until end of May, and she was as good as the others if not better who were pretty much all twice her size and a year older. Evan swam from the deep end for 10m to a woggle held by the teaching assistant. So proud of her
Wow, MM that's some amazing swimming from the little one, well done S! There are no indoor pools here so we tend not to swim at all through the winter, have just started getting out again for the season this last couple of weeks. Max was on a great trajectory in the autumn but has stopped dead and maybe even gone back a little with his swimming. Should be able to get out now every week which is good.
Have put our flights on hold, flying back on April 29 and staying for 3 weeks. Need to go through our itinerary to make sure we can do all we want to in that time before confirming them. Getting quite excited about going back though. Looking at houses to rent in the Swindon area. There are some at the Cotswold Water Park that MM I'm sure you know. Trying to work out what will be OK from all the way over here is not easy though. Especially as 2 places that look very similar to me are quoted at 3,300 for the 3 weeks or 1,200 for the same time!! Why? Unfortunately there are no guest reviews yet for the cheaper one so I can't see what's wrong with it
I'm terrible about taking M swimming - need to go more regularly. She is very confident and really enjoys it but because we don't do lessons at the moment we never get into the habit of going weekly. Well done Sophie!!!
23 degrees today - its April - this is crazy!!! Taking full advantage but it does feel very weird and I really feel for my parents as the farm is in major drought now!
Exciting re. your trip Ttid!! Who was it who said they might move to the States? TB? I lived away from my family for 8 years but at least one of my siblings lived in London for much of that time. I missed them a lot but was made easier by knowing we'd always move home at some point. Hubby told me yesterday he feels more like a NZ'er than a Brit now which was nice to hear! Means that he feels settled here despite the on-going job stuff!
Must be hard living so far away from family, although perhaps convenient at times too if they're a bit annoying!
I laughed the other day when the American couple who are learning French with me asked where my mum lived - I said Suffolk and they said "oh not far then"! I was like, yeah only a 3.5hr drive! But I had to admit that was closer than America (smiley faces not working!)
Well interview all done, just waiting to hear now if I got it or not... I think I did as well as I could have, whether I'm right for the job remains to be seen. I blagged some of it, used made-up examples etc but I think I was convincing!
My new perfume has just arrived - Happy belated Mother's Day me
Night out tonight with some mummy friends much-needed after the week I've had, just got to try not to overdo it as really don't want a hangover! Then friend's boys' party tomorrow and our friends coming to see us tomorrow night, and watching the Sheffield half marathon on Sunday, which hopefully won't be too depressing :/
What a pain re the payslip CM, typical that only that one goes missing
Yes, it was me Hoggle Probably not for 3-4 years, but looking increasingly likely!
Good luck JG
Giovanna slept for 2.5 hours this morning! Didn't quite know what to do with myself but carried on with project playroom (don't ask, it is a bomb site and is going to take more than 2.5 days never mind hours!) and squeezed in a couple of miles on the treadmill
happy Friday everyone
wow Tatty that would have been nice. Well done G!!
i sat in the toy room yesterday and found all the dolls clothes and dressed them as i got a new DVD through the post so was watching that. It is Runrig. The concert we were at last year for their 40th year anniversary. It was an amzing gig and watching the DVD brought it all back, a lump in my throat often as some of the songs remind me of years ago.
best of luck with the job JG...............if it was meant to be
My parents live 35 min drive from me, see them a few times a month. MIL is 10 mins away, dont see her that often although hubby pops in for his dinner the days i am working after he collects M from nursery! My wee sis is in Brighton so only see her twice a year, other 2 sisters live 45 mins drive but probably only see the a few times a year what with work etc and they have teenage kids so are always busy.
i alway wanted to live in Oz or NZ but would find it hard been on the other side of the world.
CC hope you have a great time in Torridon, gorgeous part of Scotland. I look forward to meeting you in a couple of weeks!
Havent done much today- 3 miles on the bike with M in the trailer at school drop of then 100 jumping jacks, 75 squats, 50 half press ups, 40 crunches, 20 lunges and some kettlebell swings.quick bath and then to my SIL's for coffee and so that M could play with her cousin; he is just 10 months youngr than her. THen girls home from school, lunch, tidy up and now i am on here although need to go and do washing, hoovering etc!
Dead excited as hubby and I are also actually getting away fro a night tomorrow. my mum and dad are taking the girls.We are going down to the glenlivet bike trails to spend the afternoon and then staying in Aviemore. Whoop whoop. Will hopefully get a swim in before breakfast and the maybe a cycle around loch morlich before coming back Sunday afternoon. So need to go and get all our gear together and the girls overnight stuff also.....................maybe later!
MM well done on your wee swimmer, fab.
How are you Brookie? ((((()))))
Flip CM your work still being twats then? When do u leave?
Arghhhhhhh canna remember anything else, sorry to those i missed, memory really is like a seive sometimes.
Random Friday question: Matilda has been riding a bike for over a yr now, no probs, goes down hills, off road etc. She has an isla bike with no gears that she has admittedly outgrown, but we're not getting her a new one till her b day. Do you think cycling 9 miles is reasonable? It is a flat, off road purpose built path next to a steam train line in Norfolk. My idea is she and I cycle and the boys take the train, then we all take the train back - not a race, just us having a nice mummy/daughter cycle ride.
Hello all!
Still lurking occasionally. Caro LB did 10 miles on the Camel Trail on one of those bikes when he was 4 so M should be OK as long as there aren't any steep hills.
Caro- don't think my girls would have managed but maybe if its very flat and you take plenty of breaks she might manage???
Thanks Vixo. Very excited, don't know when we last did any thing together without kids, years probably!
Does anyone have any sleeping bag advice??? Have decided to buy one for the mountain marathon as I guessed having 3 kids a good sleeping bag would be an investment for cold cub camps etc etc In the future.
Found a good down sleeping bag last night which went to - 5 and had good reviews and also good value but of course not in stock for the foreseeable future. All the other ones that I have looked at, Rab etc are heavier and much more expensive. Arghhhhhhhh. Anyone got any advice on one?? Needs to be light, pack tiny and be warm and not cost a small fortune!! Hahahahaha. Anyway going to go and research more now with a glass of wine!!!! Happy Friday all x
Haha RF, didnt do much...then lists a killer squat, lunge etc etc session!
No idea on bike stamina Caro but most youngsters have oodles so Id go for it!
RB - glad to see you still lurk a bit, how is LB getting on and equally important are you running?
Boo to job JG
I have family close by, sis is a great help 5 mins away. My mother is useless and is the closest parent of the lot (10 mins. Still not forgiven her for taking my birthday present) my dad and inlaws are 30 mins away and they are all coming over later for another seafood feast.
Stuck with kids all day so swimming lesson and party..... Missing a chance of a sea swim
I'm not sure I share your sadness at missing a sea swim Camlo!
Parkrun done, first in ages. According to my garmin I was 20.19 which matches my PB....I am just hoping the parkrun timer says 2018 It was a killer though, was retching at the end which I haven't done for ages, and coughing loads, not a pretty sight to behold!
Thanks for you bike input, nice to see you're still lurking RB. Can't remember if I have asked what bikes people got for their kiddies when they first moved onto gears. Vixo/RB? The Isla ones are so expensive!
Caro Nice one on the PR. I was about to say your pb matches mine, then I realized mine is something like 25.19. Defo not the same. I hope PR records a pb for you.
Cm - I can't believe your work won't resend the payslip. We have online payslips (my depts work ) but payroll will reprint and stamp for anyone requesting. Your work sound like a'holes but I think you know that.
Camlo - sea swim sounds good but not in the uk. A friend is off for a lake swim today! Yikes. I did a 5k race last year in may and that was bad enough at 12 degrees. For once, being a lard arse was an advantage!!
My 3 yr old daughter is really playing up and winges constantly. We are being really strict with her but its so draining. I guess its the new baby and possibly her age but I am not enjoying it. She is good as gold at nursery. I guess we just press on with being strict??
Caro our boys cycled 9-10 miles on their 14 inch bikes When they were 5. Halfords not Isla. They did have brakes though. They biked 15 last year on hols on their 20 inch alu bikes with 7 gears (halfords again, can't afford x2 Isla bikes!!) but with a break at the beach for lunch and swimming.
Has the 14 inch Isla not got brakes? Sophie is now riding properly and we want to get her a lighter bike for her 4th birthday, she struggles with the weight if her steel bike we got from a friend but she is still so small. Her balance bike had a brake so she has got the hang of that and the steel bike has too. Other alloy or aluminium 14 inch bikes all have stabilisers which is a waste of money for her.
4.7 miles run last night with zero pain. Woohoo!! Too late for mara but pondering if ultra in 9 weeks might be feasible? Last 20 miler was Feb 16th, but have done plenty of endurance type stuff on xtrainer and swimming. Just swam 3k again and am getting quicker finally. 1500 in 27 mins today. Going to try and keep swimming once a week I think, although still don't much like it!!
Boys lost their match again, but the team is bonding well now. I think they are def playing better. What is noticeable is how fast our boys are, when they run they are 2-3m ahead if everyone very quickly!! Just can't finish very well as so many near misses from them today.
Time for bacon and eggs to feed the hungry army!!! Wondering whether kids can wait till 1pm as hubbie out on his bike.
Well done on PB Caro, catching me!! Never been great at 5k I am an mileage queen like Lotte.
Thanks Vixo. We think the cnoc 16 will be too big for her. She is 98cm with short legs bless her, takes after me!!! We will re-measure her and work it out. Think we can afford one Isla bike, it was the factor of 2 with the boys and we are pretty pleased with their bikes. They get some pounding as the boys use them all the time. Hubbie very clued up on bikes being a triathlete and now tri coach.
Feeling rather chuffed with ourselves. Allotment just dug over and parsnips sown. We have got a much smaller plot but retained the asparagus bed so very pleased and its much more manageable.
Looking forward to seeing if I can run for an hour tomorrow. Fingers crossed!!
Off out for dinner tonight as Grandad here. Really looking forward to some time with hubbie, its been too long.
Sorry MM it def has brakes! Did I say no brakes? I meant no gears!!! M got the cnoc 14 for xmas when she was 3.5 so by the time she gets a new one for her 6th b day it will have done 2.5 yrs. She is small Vixo, way way smaller than Isabelle so couldn't get away with a large anything! Eric on the other hand is a big boy so I think he will get less use out of the cnoc 14 when he gets it as he will outgrow it too fast.
I am planning a buggy run with M on bike on Monday so we'll see how we get on.
Parkrun wasn't a PB, it was recorded as 20.19! Annoying but I was beyond any sort of speed by the end. Even if I had known I was close I dont think I could have done anything about it.
Meeting Minks at 7.30am tomorrow for a 10 miler in her neck of the woods. The forecast is heavy rain! Oh well......will be far easier with company
Boo to not beating your pb Caro. Have fun with Minks tomorrow. I love that some of us meet up sometime.
Must be the night for nights out, Mr TT and I are out later too.

Hey Mando,
The polarized will look the same. Only difference is the polarized lens.
Nice, but not for me
First of all, let me say I do like the glasses. They remind me of the Oakley gascan, maybe a bit better looking. Unfortunately I have the same problem as with the gascan, they are tight around the temples, to the point of being uncomfortable after 20 minutes.
I guess they are just not made for wide noggins. So reluctantly I had to return them.

Gwinnett Daily Post
LAWRENCEVILLE -- No joke: Gwinnett's water resources department has begun self-generating a large portion of its energy, thanks to a gas most commonly known as a product of flatulence.
A new gas-to-energy facility at the F.Wayne Hill Water Resources plant in Buford can produce up to 40 percent of the plant's energy needs using only methane gas, a byproduct of the facility's sewage treatment process, officials said.
During the treatment process, bacteria in egg-shaped digesters turn wastewater solids into methane gas at temperatures near 100 degrees, reducing the waste that goes to landfills. Previously burned off as waste, the methane gas produced during this reaction is now used to power the plant and provide the heat needed to fuel the digesters that produced it in the first place, officials said.
"We're making good use of a renewable, previously wasted resource to help cut operating costs and keep water rates low for Gwinnett residents," Director of Water Resources Lynn Smarr said.
The department used $5 million in federal stimulus funds, a $3.5 million federal grant and $500,000 from local water and sewer funds to build the facility.
A companion facility for receiving fats, oils and grease from restaurants and other operations will also be completed next fall using the funds. That waste will "go into the digesters to increase methane production while helping reduce clogs in county sewers," water resources officials said.
The project, known as POWER (Processing Organic Waste for Energy Recovery), won an environmental sustainability award from the Atlanta Regional Commission earlier this year.
Gwinnett County must repay $2 million over the next 20 years at 2 percent interest.

Don't Give Up on Symantec
Symantec is targeting organic revenue growth of more than 5% and adjusted operating margin of 30% by fiscal year 2017. In these terms, Symantec has given mixed signals. While on one hand, Symantec has improved its profitability, on the other hand, it has achieved little in terms of top-line growth.
Over the last two quarters, Symantec's revenue have fallen. Thomson Reuters reports analysts are expecting an even bigger year-over-year drop of 6% in the fourth quarter. The company could post annual revenues of $6.69 billion, which would show a decline of 3.1% from last year. This annual estimate is in-line with Symantec's forecast.
On the other hand, in the third quarter Symantec's operating margins rose to 23.8% from an average operating margin of just 16.1% in the fiscal third quarters over the last three years. The company's profit margin came in at 16.6%, which is the highest for the fiscal third quarter since 2009.
Moreover, Symantec's adjusted operating margin climbed 420 basis points from the same quarter last year to 30.1%, which is in line with its 2017 target.
In the previous quarter, Bennett was able to rein in the company's operating expenses, which dropped by 14% from 2013, on the back of the massive job cuts. While Bennett is delivering on the promise of reducing the firm's operating expenditure, the pace of the decline was slower than Bennett's initial plans. The CEO was targeting at least a $220 million reduction in annual operating expenses. By that measure, in the first nine months of the current fiscal year, the operating expenses should have fallen by $165 million. They are down by just $133 million, easily missing the mark by nearly $30 million. However, it will deliver on Bennett's promise if, in its next quarterly results for the three months ending March 2014, Symantec manages to cut its operating expenses by just 7.4%. In these terms, Bennett's performance wasn't all bad -- therefore his layoff in the middle of the turnaround came as a big shock to investors. This is why Symantec's shares are still down 2.7% since the announcement of Bennett's departure. Furthermore, the seven analyst downgrades have further exacerbated the situation. Despite all its troubles, Symantec is the biggest security software vendor in the world. According to Gartner, the security infrastructure market could continue growing from $55 billion in 2011 to $86 billion by 2016. This growth could fuel Symantec's turnaround. Symantec is facing increasing competition from Palo Alto Network (PANW) and FireEye (FEYE), as well as from McAfee, which is backed by the tech juggernaut Intel (INTC). But, according to Gartner's most recent data, Symantec commands a massive 19.6% market share in the security software industry. The company's share is more than twice as large as that of its nearest competitor, McAfee. At the time of publication, the author held no positions in any of the stocks mentioned.

I posted something very similar to this in the Southern forum (no replies yet), before realizing that the Container forum existed (which seems more pertinent to my question), and it seems more active in here.
With the new year underway, I've (of course) been thinking about spring and summer gardening. I have very little in-ground space that gets good sun, and my residence is temporary, so I use ground for annuals; I've actually only just recently gotten into gardening, so the vast majority of my experience involves annual veggies and herbs. The best sun is on my large deck. It is south-facing and gets full sun most of the day. I received a 'Meiwa' kumquat and have been learning about caring for it here on the forums (first step: gritty mix transplant). This has gotten me pretty excited about growing more perennial plants (particularly edibles, a category which I guess is dominated by fruits) in containers. My reading indicates that there are a LOT of fruit tree/shrub varieties that can be grown in pots. I've been looking at Raintree Nursery, Almost Eden, Pine Island, and some others, and everything looks so great, I want it all! But it's expensive, and I'm quite the novice, so I must be wise in my purchases. I'm interested in blueberries, raspberries (really any berry, I'd guess), as well as various apples and citrus (meyer lemon looks promising, and 'Moro' blood orange!), not to mention the much smaller strawberries. Unique things like avocados, pomegranates and honeysuckle (apparently some have edible fruits?) are also exciting to me. Some of these listed take years to start fruiting, though, and that's not ideal for me yet. I'm just having a hard time figuring out which plants take how long to mature, not to mention how old the plant will be when I purchase it... All of the available information is overwhelming, much of it seems conflicting, and I don't know which fruits would actually be best for my situation. For instance, I plan to move away from here (Louisiana, zone 8b) in August, which is kind of prime time for fruiting for lots of plants (very frustrating!); therefore, I would much prefer fruits that will produce this year, and the earlier, the better (May-July harvest would be beautiful). The smaller, the better, too, since I'd like to bring most of my perennials with me when I move. However, smaller means less fruit, so I guess I mean 15 gallon pots are really pushing it. Also, I'll probably move somewhere slightly cooler than here, but only zone 7ish coastal areas, and I'm willing to bring any containers inside for winter months as necessary. I'd like to eventually grow plants that may require a few years of growth before production, but not until after moving. So, with all of this in mind....
I'm interested in other beautiful plants, but would like to keep this thread limited to food, please. Thanks in advance for your help! |
Follow-Up Postings:
If you have the patience, you need to learn some propagation techniques that will allow you to clone those trees you like. I have 4 raised beds filled mostly with material growing on for bonsai that I started as cuttings from my own plants, or cuttings from other people's plants that were taken after securing permission. This doesn't have to be limited to trees, either. Most vegetables and garden annuals/perennials are easily propagated, too. Every spring when I establish some 30 mixed display plantings of showy stuff, I often start as many as 5-6 extra plants from what I might be using, often sticking the cuttings at the edges of my containers, which REALLY fills them out after a few weeks. Sorry ..... I'm off the food topic, but as I mentioned, it's all applicable to plants that lend themselves to easy propagation. |
- Posted by stropharia 8b louisiana (My Page) on Sun, Jan 9, 11 at 4:13
That's a good point, and I do know a bit about asexual propagation. But I've only taken woody cuttings from a couple plants (figs and apples, IIRC), and it's been a few years. I think I have some rooting hormone around here somewhere. However, I don't exactly have ready access to others' plants. I know no other people who grow plants that I want. All I can think of is loquat, which is everywhere around here... Also, I'm looking for something that would fruit this season at least a little (if that's even possible). Due to the difficulty entailed in moving cross-country with huge potted plants, I'd prefer to obtain the long-term plants I want this coming winter/spring, when I live in a new house, and be selective about which I choose to raise this summer. |
- Posted by stropharia 8b louisiana (My Page) on Mon, Jan 10, 11 at 20:54
So I've been doing some more research on mail-ordering fruit trees, and it seems that most people would have ordered theirs last year, to be shipped out either before or right after winter. I guess I'm a little late, huh? Perhaps I should just go around to local nurseries and check if they have any fruit trees, then research the varieties they have... I'm really new to this, so any advice would be greatly appreciated. |
It sorta depends on where the nurseries are located if you order over the net. I've received tree liners in mid-may that were bare-rooted & buds still tight, which means they were prolly lifted and kept in cold storage until time to ship. I've also received tubes & #1 containerized trees from a number of sellers that arrived in May in full leaf & took right off after only a brief pout. Most reputable nurseries don't want to be replacing dead trees, so they'll tell you if they think there is a problem shipping to your area. Al |
- Posted by stropharia none (My Page) on Mon, Jan 10, 11 at 23:04
Thanks for your advice, Al. I'll have to contact a few online nurseries and see what they say. Does anyone have any suggestions on what sort of fruit plants might suit my situation? |
Figs, for one. I'll call on a friend from LA (Viv) and see if she has any suggestions. Give it a little time though, she's prolly still adding up her husband's score. If you want to know what that means, you'll have to email me for the funny. ;o) Al |
- Posted by stropharia none (My Page) on Tue, Jan 11, 11 at 18:52
Figs are a good idea, I think I could even get a couple free from the university's horticulture department, though they'd be ~6" cuttings. As mentioned in my other thread, I purchased a 'Moro' Blood Orange and a 'Meyer' Lemon today, even though they won't fruit this summer. I just coulnd't resist! |

Congrats on the Moro Blood Orange....I bought one last Spring. It's my first citrus, and it hasn't bloomed or fruited yet, but I think it'll do well this Summer. I've heard good things about Meyer Lemons, and I intend to plant one in-ground this year, too. There's a Citrus Forum at GardenWeb, which is handy...but, as you've noted, the Container Forum |
Here is a link that might be useful: Moro Blood Orange - finally got one....!

Josh, I've actually read that thread, your Moro is beautiful! In fact, that thread made me look into Four Winds; they have some great plants. I'd love to see how your Moro is doing now, after 10 months. Do you have any recent pictures? Feel free to post them in this thread. |

Stropharia, Figs and pomegranates grow well in Chicago, so they should thrive in Louisiana and bear well. My pomegranates set a lot of fruit here that don't ripen. Citrus has been fun, too. Looks like you have a good start on container gardening. red_chucks |
- Posted by greenman28 NorCal-7b/8a (My Page) on Tue, Jan 11, 11 at 23:03
Ah, yes, gladly! Thanks for checking out the Moro Thread! Here's my little tree, hangin' out in the cold-frame: |
- Posted by jojosplants Az. z. 9 (My Page) on Tue, Jan 11, 11 at 23:57
LOL! stropharia, Now you went and did it.. Got Josh on a roll with pics. ;-) You'll learn he loves pictures, and we love seeing them. (Josh, just giving you a bad time buddy; ;-) ) The tree looks great, all nice and cozy in the pop up. I'm getting antsy to get out to our large nursery and see what they have! stropharia~ I have 3 now, and all are in need of potting up soon! JoJo |
Hi Al! Hi Stropharia! I'm not quite sure what I could suggest about the fruit plants. Yes, we have Loquat trees coming out our ears around here! My neighbor has a good-sized Loquat tree that just appeared in her yard years ago and has done beautifully. Where do you live, Stropharia? I live in Lafayette. I'm having trouble getting my head around what you would like to know. Just about figs? Or other fruits, as well? I ordered three Sunshine Blue blueberry plants last fall and they are container blueberries. They have a low number of freeze hours to produce and do well in cooler zones. I hope they live and do well this next season. If you're looking for fig trees, why bother with trees that will be only tiny things through this coming season? What kinds of figs do you like? We have Durio Nursery and a man named, James Robin, in Opelousas and they have many varieties for sale between the two of them. James might have some larger young trees and his prices are very good. Durio's prices are around $20 for a 1 gallon tree, which is a yearling and $35 for a two-year plant. I got a Scott's Black tree from Mr. Robin last summer that had 10 figs on it. It's a later-bearing tree, though. A young Improved Celeste might bear in the first year. Mine got figs on it and it was just a twig when I bought it from a local man. It's more of an everbearing fig tree. Due to my own ignorance, the Improved Celeste tree dropped most of its figs, but I don't think it would have had it not been repotted THREE times after I got it. It's a wonder I didn't kill it and a testimony to how tough fig trees are. If it hadn't been for Al sticking with me through my self-induced crisis, my trees might have died. (+ an infintesimal number of points!) You need to be careful with potted figs down here. The sun hitting the pots is really hard on the roots. I'm wondering if the pots were protected by frames of wood shielding them, if that might help protect the roots. I'd like to help any way I can, but I'm not sure what you would like to know exactly, but let me know and let's see what happens. Viv a.k.a. noss PS--Al--It took me a while, but Mike's points added up to about +5,000, give or take a few each way, depending..... ;) I should give him about +1,000,000 for putting up with me for all these years and tolerating me with baby fig trees all over the yard, carport and house! |
- Posted by stropharia none (My Page) on Wed, Jan 12, 11 at 1:03
red_chucks, thanks for the info. I'd especially like to grow a pomegranate or two. Josh, your orange looks great, I love the cold frame! JoJo, that's a good suggestion. I'll have to check out a few different stores around here periodically. I'm tempted to buy every plant I want, but I don't have unlimited money, and the more plants I get now, the more I have to move with me in the fall... |
- Posted by stropharia none (My Page) on Wed, Jan 12, 11 at 1:14
Hey viv, sorry didn't see you there. I don't really know anything about figs, to be honest. I've only eaten one a couple times, and have never considered growing them. I'm actually just looking for suggestions in what sorts of perennial fruit/food plants I can grow in containers smaller than 15 gallons than I would be able to bring with me when I move to a coast, probably in zone 7 or warmer, this fall/winter. I'm especially interested in things that will potentially produce this summer, but understand that this is unlikely and it is not required for the discussion. Feel free to tell me more about fig varieties that might fit the bill. Pretend I don't know anything about them (because I really don't! :-D ) |
Hi Stropharia, I only know about figs and not a whole lot, except it's pretty hard to kill them unless you drown them, or let them dry out all the way if they're in containers. I would get a Violette de Bordeaux for starters. They evidently do well everywhere are are delicious, as per everyone. I've got a Negronne baby and those are supposed to be the same as VdB. It hasn't produced anything for me, as it's just a baby. You need to talk to Dalton Durio and let him tell you what fig trees do well in containers. You can google Durio Nursery and get the phone number, or email him. I'm sorry I can't be of more service to you. Viv |
- Posted by stropharia none (My Page) on Thu, Jan 13, 11 at 19:49
No Viv, thank you, that's great. I seriously didn't consider figs and know nothing about them, so that's a really good starting point. That's the kind of info I'm looking for. |
Not to derail your thread, but I was wondering where you got your materials for the gritty mix. I'm in New Orleans and so far have only succeeded in finding sources for Turface (Ewing in Mandeville and John Deer Landscapes in Baton Rouge). I can't seem to track down Gran-I-Grit or similar product, nor pine bark fines. I thought for sure the feed stores around would have chicken grit, but I have not found any (I haven't yet checked the feed stores on the north shore though). We seem to be in the same boat. I'm also new to growing perennials in containers and find myself wanting every fruit tree I see! But I may be moving in the next year also, so thanks for posting this! |
- Posted by stropharia none (My Page) on Sat, Jan 15, 11 at 4:16
Hey LaCygne, I am using a modified gritty mix due to already having a lot of perlite, and not wanting to use granite because of its heaviness: -4 parts perlite So I can't help you with the Gran-I-Grit. I got my Turface from Ewing in BR (down the street from John Deere, actually); their price was $9 per 50 lb bag, vs John Deere's $15. And a surly man even got down a new pallet with a forklift for me! So I'd call Ewing in Mandeville unless you're gonna drive here anyway. Check out the link below. In post #8, Al details the reasoning behind the above gritty mix, you can decide if that's worthwhile to you. Good luck! |
Here is a link that might be useful: my other thread on gritty/repotting/life
Thanks so much! That link was just what I needed, and it's good to know there's such a price difference between Ewing and JD. Now I just have to scale down my Very Long List of things I want to grow into something manageable. =) |

Serial's Sarah Koenig arm wrestling Ira Glass
It's official: "Serial" is the hottest podcast in the history of the known universe, the most significant moment in audio since the "War of the Worlds" broadcast, and the most innovative development in communication arts since the smoke signal. In fact, it's a breakthrough symbolizing the Great Podcast Renaissance of 2014. [Yahoo]Like composer Nick Diamonds, This American Life's Ira Glass was involved with the most popular podcast of all time, Sarah Koenig's Serial, which aired its final episode about Hae-Min Lee and Adnan Syed today (12/18). What did you think of the ending (which was slightly different than Funny or Die's version)? I thought it ended okay, but will leave it at that. #nospoilers
Ira Glass (first cousin once removed of Philip) is of course the host of public radio's popular This American Life of which Serial is a spinoff. When not speaking on the radio, Ira sometimes relaxes with a documentary. He listed some of his favorites for the Sundance Doc Club, including Stop Making Sense, and crime drama The Thin Blue Line.
Ira Glass also often appears live in front of audiences, and that continues to prove true throughout the next year, as you can see from his busy schedule outlined below. He appears at Town Hall in NYC this Friday (flyer below), and has upcoming talks at Yale, the Association of Performing Arts, Mayo Performing Arts Center, and many more places.
Dates and video instructions on how to listen to a podcast (by Ira Glass), below...
Long in the works, Salad Days: A Decade of Punk in Washington, DC 1980-1990, is premiering as part of the DOC NYC fest in NYC tonight (11/14). Expected to attend: Scott Crawford, producer Jim Saah, film subjects Michael Hampton (S.O.A., Embrace), Tom Lyle (Government Issue), Bert Queiroz (Untouchables, Double-O, Youth Brigade), and Jenny Toomey (Tsunami, Simple Machines Records).
What better way to prepare than with an advance listen to Fugazi's soon-to-be-officially-released First Demo? Full Soundcloud stream and more info below...

New Jersey's WFMU has occupied a unique position as an independent, commercial-free, listener-supported radio station since its inception in the late 1950s. At its heart is the dedicated station manager Ken Freedman, committed to an unstructured, free- form broadcasting model which has won WFMU acclaim as the best--and perhaps weirdest-- radio station in the tristate area, if not the country. Facing a budget crisis, can Ken rally both his volunteer staff and his listeners to keep the station afloat?Find out by watching Sex and Broadcasting, a new film about one of our favorite radio stations. It makes its world premiere this Saturday (11/15) at IFC Center in NYC, and then plays again at the same place on 11/17. On 11/20 you can catch it at SVA Theatre in Chelsea. Get your tickets. Filmmaker Tim K. Smith is expected to be at two or all of the screenings, and film subject Ken Freedman should be around too. Watch a clip at Indie Wire and the trailer below.
All three screenings are part of DOC NYC which kicked off yesterday and runs through 11/20. As mentioned, the film lineup also includes a "Sonic Cinema" series with films about Elliott Smith, the DC punk scene and more.
Indie Wire also lists 5 (non-music) must see documentaries. The NY Times has a fest preview too.
The 14th Annual Coney Island Film Festival runs from September 19 - 21, 2014. Things kick off tonight with an opening night party and a single screening, and then you can spend all day Saturday and Sunday watching movies in Coney Island. Titles include "Brooklyn Slice", "Keep It Real: Banksy NYC", "The Birth and Death of the BTK Band", "Passage To Coney Island", "Last Night in Astroland", "Samuel's Game", "Famous Nathan", "Looking For Johnny", and of course "The Warriors".
Looking For Johnny is a documentary about the late New York Dolls and Heartbreakers guitarist Johnny Thunders, and it will be making its NYC premiere at the Coney Island film fest. $8 will get you into the Saturday, 3pm screening AND Q&A with "some of the punk period musicians who appear in the film."

GWAR at the Housecore Horror Fest in Austin, 2013 (more by Trent Maxwell)
Style Weekly dug deeply into GWAR this week and for good reason: the band have had a year like few others. Certainly, the sad news of Dave Brockie's passing will be the lasting memory for many, but after their downs, GWAR also had their ups. They've released a mountain of atypical merch and marketing ideas -- some good, some not so much. They're going back out on the road with Decapitated, Corrosion of Conformity, and American Sharks. When they've played Oderus-less, they've looked in good form. And now there's going to be a GWAR documentary.
The nine minute trailer for Let There Be GWAR details the band's beginnings, showing how frustrated art school castaways built a band to fit their fantasies. It's actually a rather inspiring story and a clever piece of cinema, utilizing a picture-in-picture talking head technique to great effect. Of course, GWAR aren't just any band, but their origins are similar to other lifers that keep on doing it out of love. If you've winced at their recent capitalistic streak, it's a nice palette cleanser. A date and other release information for the Don Drakulich-directed documentary hasn't made the rounds yet, but you can watch the full nine minute trailer below.
Speaking of GWAR-related documentaries, you can catch them in Riot on the Dance Floor, the new film about Trenton, NJ rock club City Gardens, which makes its BV-presented NYC premiere TONIGHT (8/28).

Memphis indie legends The Grifters just announced and played their first shows in 17 years. Coming off the heels of a last minute hometown reunion show in November 2013, they'll be playing NYC shows at Glasslands on November 7 and Mercury Lounge on November 8. Tickets for the Glasslands show are on sale now. Tickets for the Mercury Lounge show will go on AmEx presale Wednesday (8/20) and on sale to the general public Friday (8/22).
The NYC shows will mark the 20th anniversary of their album Crappin You Negative, and are in addition to playing Gonerfest in Memphis on September 25. No other dates have been announced, but hopefully this means they'll be playing more shows in the coming months.
What caused the band to reunite now? It was a documentary actually...
Directors Robert Allen Parker and Nan Hackman's biggest coup may have been convincing local indie-rock godfathers the Grifters to reunite after more than a decade of inactivity. The band was both one of Memphis' biggest local draws and most successful exports of the 1990s, releasing several LPs, EPs, and singles (the 1994 full-length Crappin' You Negative received rave reviews from publications like Rolling Stone and Spin) and touring extensively until around 2000, when exhaustion and the emergence of new projects and opportunities led the Grifters to slow things down and ultimately disband. [Memphis Flyer]Check out the trailer of the documentary, produced for the Memphis Film Festival, which features some cool live footage, below.
City Gardens DJ/promoter Randy Now
The long-in-the-works documentary about storied Jersey punk/metal club City Gardens, titled Riot On the Dance Floor, is now finished and has been shown at a few festivals so far. Would you like to see it? BrooklynVegan and Rocks Off are pairing up for the NYC premiere of the film, happening Thursday, August 28 at AMC Loews Village 7 in the East Village. We're also hosting a post-screening Q&A with Gibby Haynes (Butthole Surfers), Sim Cain (Rollins Band), Director Steve Tozzi and more TBA. UPDATE: John Joseph (Cro-Mags) and Howie Abrams (co-founder of In-Effect Records) added to Q&A.
The event doubles as a benefit for the film -- which was funded by Kickstarter -- and starts at 8 PM. $10 tickets are on sale now.
After the film join us for the afterparty at Bowery Electric. Gibby Haynes will be DJing (and more details TBA).

The National @ Barclays Center in 2013 (more by Dana (distortion) Yavin)
If you haven't seen the National documentary 'Mistaken For Strangers' yet, July 7 is your chance when it screens for $5.00 at City Winery in NYC (try not to drink all the wine... because then you won't remember the movie!). One night earlier City Winery is screening a documentary about one of The National's favorite bands, the Grateful Dead. That one is free (don't take the brown acid).
The National movie recently opened across Europe where The National will be touring next week. All dates are listed below, even the ones they cancelled in Russka and Ukraine. In April they announced:
Due to the ongoing political crisis in the region, we are sad to report that we have decided to cancel our shows in Moscow, St. Petersburg and Kiev this summer. Ticket refunds are available at the point of purchase. We remain hopeful of coming to play for you in the future and we sincerely hope this current instability resolves in a positive, democratic and peaceful way. Take care of yourselves and we hope to see you soon.They'll see the U.S. again in August whtn they play a series of festival dates including Made in America in Philly, Boston Calling in Boston, and Riot Fest in Chicago and Toronto. Their most recent NYC shows were in Prospect Park for three nights in a row. We also caught them this year at Sasquatch, in Austin, and in Chicago.

King Buzzo at Housecore Horror Film Festival, 2013 (More by Trent Maxwell)
Richard "King Buzzo" Osborne, frontman/guitarist for the Melvins is now streaming his new solo outing, This Machine Kills Artists, in full. The record (not to be confused with the new Scion AV split with Tweak Bird) is a departure from his recognizable stew of slow sludge, booming doom, and Kiss-riffs twisted into a nightmare. Instead of punk distortion overload, This Machine is simply Buzz and an acoustic guitar, recorded straight to tape, string rattle and all. It will be released by Ipecac on June 3. Then, Buzzo will hit the road for a long tour.
That said, it would be a mistake to think This Machine lacks heft. While opener "Dark Brown Teeth" is a Richie Havens-esque strummer containing beautiful, haunting singing pulled from '70s power pop, there are long passages where the collection gets unnervingly dark. When I caught Buzzo at the Scion Rock Fest, I was surprised by the force of his impact. I wrote:
He yelled, growled; hammering the same gut-bucket progression past flushness. His grey hair spun out in spirals, whipping the air. He was Woody Guthrie in a nightmare. The audience watched reverently.It was but a man and his guitar, but his charisma, keen sense of melody, and focus kept a crowd of antsy metalheads facing the stage during his set. This Machine isn't any different. Its sub-three minute songs, while raw, are full of surprises.
In related news, after a Kickstarter campaign dating back at least two years, The Color of Noise, the documentary tracking the history of Amphetamine Reptile Records will be seeing a debut shortly. Began by Tom Hazelmyer in 1986, the Minneapolis label catered to the burgeoning noise rock scene, releasing records by Melvins, the Jesus Lizard, Helmet, Tar, Today is the Day, and many, many more that have achieved a cult following. Its legacy lives on today, influencing third and fourth waves of noisy bands best described as having that 'AmRep' sound. The film will premiere May 30 at Third Man Records in Nashville, Tennessee and features many talking heads ranging from Steve Austin, Derek Hess, John Stainer, and, yep, King Buzzo.

Ad-Rock and Champagne Jerry
Kathleen Hanna isn't feeling well, so her husband Adam Horovitz aka Ad-Rock will be filling in for her as DJ at MoMA's Pop Rally event tonight (11/21). Kim Gordon's group Body/Head also performs and tickets are still on sale.
You can still catch Kathleen soon though, but on the big screen, when "The Punk Singer" opens in theaters on 11/29 (maybe you caught the documentary as part of Doc NYC). Ad-Rock is also featured prominently in the film, and even filmed a scene.
It's not all DJing, movies and bass playing for Ad-Rock these days though. The former Beastie Boy reportedly also raps a few verses on a forthcoming track called "Yo Kev" that he co-wrote with rapper and performance artist Champagne Jerry who he has been collaborating with lately.
"CHAMPAGNE JERRY also known as Neal Medlyn is, by far, the greatest rapper in the world. He likes snacks, books, sexual intercourse, and rhyming."If you don't know, now you know. Listen to "Tampa Realness" below - the track "was written by Champagne Jerry (lyrics) and Adam Ad Rock Horovitz (music) with additional production and mixing by Max Tannone. It is dedicated to the city of Tampa and all things neon, Four Loko, and teal. Adam wrote the beat on a plane to Hawaii, CJ wrote the lyrics on a bus in Brooklyn." Stay tuned for "Yo Kev".
"Tampa Realness" and "Yo Kev" will appear on Champagne Jerry's album For Real You Guys which is being rolled out one single at a time, and one monthly show in NYC at Joe's Pub at a time. The next show is December 7th and Ad-rock will be in the house, like he has been for many intimate shows at Joe's Pub in the past, sometimes with Bridget Everett who is also a Champagne Jerry collaborator, as is Carmine Covelli (who is in both Kathleen Hanna's band The Julie Ruin and Bridget Everett's band the Tender Moments) and Max Tannone (whose credits include Jaydiohead).
Bridget Everett and the Tender Moments next play Joe's Pub on 12/11 and 12/12.
We recently caught the Julie Ruin at Fun Fun Fun Fest and at MHOW, and not that long ago at Union Pool where Ad-Rock was reportedly seen hanging with Champagne Jerry.

Much earlier this year mentioned that The Residents were celebrating their 40th anniversary with a $100,000 box set packaged in a 28 cubic-foot refrigerator. NBC Bay Area now reports that one has been delivered to a happy buyer whose transaction will also appear in a forthcoming docyumentary...
Last September, Cryptic Corporation Vice President Homer Flynn announced the sale of the first Ultimate Box Set to a man named Tripmonster from Bloomington, Ind. In a video press release, Flynn also said the delivery would be shot as part of a documentary called, "Theory of Obscurity," about the 40+ year history of The Residents.Box set related videos and documentary trailer below...Acting as the managers for The Residents, The Cryptic Corporation has handled all press, business dealings and public interactions during the majority of the group's career, providing the members of The Residents with an impressive level of anonymity.
"For The Residents, the delivery of their Ultimate Box Set was both a profound and satisfying experience," Flynn said. "The expression of joy on the face of Tripmonster, as he held Mr. Green, the eyeball mask from his UBS, was worth every minute of their 40-year existence."...

Before you head out to the Grand Theft Auto music events happening as part of the ongoing New York Film Festival tonight (9/30), here's a bit more about the films I've seen so far this festival:
Some films that did not do much for me:
When Evening Falls on Bucharest or Metabolism by the Romanian director Corneliu Poumbou -- This was another film about film and the making of a film. It features very long static shots, a trend of the Romanian New Wave of film going on today, of which this director is part of. In fact the whole film is only about 20 takes but did not connect with me at all. loved his last film Police, Adjective though.
Jimmy P Psychotherapy of a Plains Indian --- This one stars Benecio Del Toro and was directed by the French director Arnaud Desplechin whose 2004 film Kings & Queens was one of the best I saw that year. Based on a true story, it is just what the title states, a case study of the psychotherapy of a Native American ex soldier after WWII. Very well acted by both Del Toro and French actor Mathieu Amalric, but it was a completely unremarkable film to me. Another critic put it best to me. This would have been great if it was a PBS American Playhouse production.
The Missing Picture by Rithy Panh was loved by a number of people I saw it with. It is told with the use of both newsreel footage and clay figurines. It's a pretty harrowing story of the Khmer Rouge and their deadly atrocities in Cambodia and the direct affect on Panh, the only survivor of his family who all died in the refugee camps. While striking in content, I could not find my way in to it.
Finally, there were 3 fascinating documentaries I saw:

The time has come for the Rocks Off Film Festival at the Kraine Theater in NYC with films about Charles Bradley, the Cockney Rejects, Drivin N Cryin, Slade, Pentagram, Jason Becker and more. Check the schedule.
Speaking of films, thanks to all who came out to our free screening of Crystal Fairy which is also in theaters tonight. Hopefully you enjoyed the movie and weren't upset by the lack of Michael Cera's penis.
Rocks Off is spreading its wings beyond the high seas and live shows, and into the film world by announcing the "only film fest in the world focused on what we all know and love, rock n' roll music!" The Rocks Off Film Festival happens July 12 - 14 at "the deliciously derelict" Kraine Theatre in the East Village. Amongst the screenings are films like Pentagram doc, Last Days Here, East End Babylon (about punks Cockney Rejects), Charles Bradley: Soul of America, and many others.
Visit the film fest's site for tickets. Line-up/Schedule and flyer below...

Before Bad Brains, the Sex Pistols or even the Ramones, there was a band called Death. Punk before punk existed, three teenage brothers in the early '70s formed a band in their spare bedroom, began playing a few local gigs and even pressed a single in the hopes of getting signed. But this was the era of Motown and emerging disco. Record companies found Death's music - and band name - too intimidating, and the group were never given a fair shot, disbanding before they even completed one album. Equal parts electrifying rockumentary and epic family love story, A Band Called Death chronicles the incredible fairy-tale journey of what happened almost three decades later, when a dusty 1974 demo tape made its way out of the attic and found an audience several generations younger. Playing music impossibly ahead of its time, Death is now being credited as the first black punk band (hell...the first punk band!), and are finally receiving their long overdue recognition as true rock pioneers.A Band Called Death opens June 28 in limited release around the country, including NYC's Cinema Village (tickets) and then at Nitehawk Cinema in Williamsburg and MIST Harlem Cinema starting July 5. Check out the full list of cities and theaters below.
You don't have to wait that long to see it, though. BrooklynVegan is excited to be presenting a screening which will happen at Williamsburg Cinemas on June 20 at 10 PM, part of the Northside Film Festival. Our screening has limited FREE tickets but do note that a ticket does not guarantee entry. First come, first served, so come early with your ticket to make sure you get in. Limited Northside badges will also be let in. Hope to see you there!
Back in March, A Band Called Death screened at SXSW where the band played two shows, one of which was one of our day parties. As mentioned, Death will play here in NYC on July 1 at Le Poisson Rouge and tickets for that are still available.

Ain't In It For My Health: A Film About Levon Helm will open at Cinema Village on Friday, April 19 which is, sadly, the one-year anniversary of the legendary musician's passing. Synopsis:
Director Jacob Hatley's intimate documentary finds Mr. Helm at home in Woodstock, NY, in the midst of creating his first studio album in 25 years. Shot over the course of two-plus years, ...[the film] shows Helm dealing with the burdens of renewed celebrity, continuing financial obligation and returning health problems. The man known worldwide for his soulful voice, as well as his singular and unparalleled drumming and multi-instrumental skills, permitted a camera crew inside his home to show the world an intimate side of his art and life.Director Jacob Hatley and producer Mary Posatko will be around for post-screening Q&As at Cinema Village at the Friday (4/19) 7:10 PM showing, and the Saturday (4/20) 3:10 PM & 7:10 PM showings. Tickets are on sale now. The film will make it's way around the country after NYC. A list of cities and theater locations, as well as the trailer, is below.
Death at Europa in 2010 (more by Ben Lozovsky)
Long lost protopunk band Death, who made a return in 2009 when Drag City released their debut album and have been sticking around ever since, have gotten the documentary treatment. A Band Called Death, directed by Mark Covino and Jeff Howlett, was released in 2012 and it will be screening at SXSW this year (screening times are HERE).
The film description reads:
Before Bad Brains, the Sex Pistols or even the Ramones, there was Death. Formed in the early '70s by three teenage brothers from Detroit, Death is credited as being the first black punk band, and the Hackney brothers, David, Bobby, and Dannis, are now considered pioneers in their field. But it wasn't until recently -- when a dusty 1974 demo tape made its way out of Bobby's attic nearly 30 years after Death's heyday -- that anyone outside a small group of punk enthusiasts had even heard of them.Death themselves will also be at SXSW for a couple shows. They'll play at TenOak on Thursday (3/14) at 12:50 AM (so technically Friday), and earlier that day they'll play a BrooklynVegan day party, which happens at the old Emo's location, 603 Red River St. Death's set is a special early one at 1:30 PM on Thursday and the party is totally free. Rough Francis (aka Death's sons band) will also be at the BV party, playing right before them at 12:45.Equal parts electrifying rockumentary and epic family chronicle, the story of Death is one of brotherly love and fierce, divinely inspired expression.

Already two Brooklyn shows, and the list keeps growing. New Postal Service dates go on pre-sale on Wednesday. All dates are listed below.
Meanwhile, a music video and a short documentary about the reunited band are in the works. The title of the doc, according to IMDB, is "10 Years of the Postal Service", and the one and only Tom Scharpling directed it, as he recently told Matt Pinfield:
"I shot two things with them," Scharpling says. "One is a mini-documentary, getting Ben Gibbard and Jimmy Tamborello to tell the story of how this weird band came together and how they were mailing each other CD-R's back and forth. It's a straight mini-doc thing that should be out shortly. The other is a funny video that takes place in 2002, that shows Jimmy auditioning potential lead singers for Postal Service. We got an amazing group of people to come through."Tom's videos are always the best, so we definitely can't wait to see that. Meanwhile check out the video Tom made for one of Ben's' solo tracks.
I'M NOW follows Mudhoney's 25-year career, from their early beginnings in the Pacific Northwest through the band's most recent world tour.

The film was directed by Ryan Short and Adam Pease.Mudhoney documentary I'm Now is out now and available for purchase or rent, details are at their site. Check out trailers and deleted scenes below.

The Salad Days documentary was celebrated over two days in Washington DC, when six hardcore bands of yesteryear reunited to play Black Cat on December 28 and 29. As discussed, the shows featured a reunion of Dag Nasty, along with appearances from Government Issue, Kingface, Black Market Baby, Youth Brigade and Scream. Check out video of all the bands below, including the full Dag Nasty appearance.

Koyaanisqatsi, also known as Koyaanisqatsi: Life Out of Balance, is a 1982 film directed by Godfrey Reggio with music composed by Philip Glass and cinematography by Ron Fricke.The film consists primarily of slow motion and time-lapse footage of cities and many natural landscapes across the United States. The visual tone poem contains neither dialogue nor a vocalized narration: its tone is set by the juxtaposition of images and music. Reggio explains the lack of dialogue by stating "it's not for lack of love of the language that these films have no words. It's because, from my point of view, our language is in a state of vast humiliation. It no longer describes the world in which we live."[1] In the Hopi language, the word Koyaanisqatsi means "unbalanced life".[2] The film is the first in the Qatsi trilogy of films: it is followed by Powaqqatsi (1988) and Naqoyqatsi (2002). The trilogy depicts different aspects of the relationship between humans, nature, and technology. Koyaanisqatsi is the best known of the trilogy and is considered a cult film. However, because of copyright issues, the film was out of print for most of the 1990s.[3] [Wikipedia]

Sound City Studios is a two-building complex in Van Nuys, Los Angeles, California, which houses sound stages. It was most notable for being the recording studio for albums such as Fleetwood Mac's Rumours and Nirvana's Nevermind. The studio is operated since 1970 by the Skeeter family, with the first album to use the facilities being Neil Young's After the Gold Rush. Until the closure of the recording studios on May 2011, the Sound City was used by artists such as Tom Petty, REO Speedwagon, Rage Against the Machine, Johnny Cash, Metallica, and the last band to record there, Everclear. One of the mixing consoles was removed to make room for sound stages, and the mixing console is now owned by Dave Grohl, former Nirvana drummer and current leader of the Foo Fighters. -[Wiki]Dave Grohl will serve as a director for the documentary on Sound City, which will feature appearances from some of the biggest names in music, all of which recorded in the hallowed halls of the studio. The movie will make its premiere at Sundance in February and you can check out the trailer for the film below.

Its been one month since Frankenstorm Sandy struck the coast of the Northeast United States, leaving ruined homes and devastated communities in its wake. Its also been one month since Occupy Sandy leapt into the void left by government agencies and big NGO's to demonstrate the power, joy, and necessity of mutual aid. New York City will forever be changed by these events, as it should be. Now is the time to break the climate silence, and shine a light on the climate crimes that made Sandy inevitable.The guerilla film screening tonight (11/28) also includes "Super secret musical guests! Super secret popcorn! Super secret flashlight flash mob!" After the n to the, there is a free after-party at The Bell House tonight starting at 9 PM featuring "LIVE dance beats from DJ RiMix as well as surprise musical performances & more!" and will be accepting donations of heaters, warm socks, flashlights, canned food, diapers & baby formula.Join academy-award nominated director [tonight, 11/28] Josh Fox (Gasland), Occupy Sandy Relief organizers, 350.0rg, The Other 98%, and The Illuminator for a Guerilla Premiere of Fox's new short film "Occupy Sandy: A Human Response to the New Realities of Climate Change," which viscerally shows the damage left behind by the storm, highlights the heroic grassroots efforts of Occupy activists, and draws the connections between the storm, climate change, and the reckless greed of the fossil fuel industry.
After the film, we will hear testimonials from victims of Hurricane Sandy, who themselves are now drawing these same connections. The time is long overdue for us all to make these connections, and to demand that our elected officials and the mainstream media do the same.
If you want to come, join our cell phone text loop by texting @climatecrime to 23559, or follow the hashtag #climatecrime on Twitter. We will keep you updated. What we can tell you now is to dress warm, bring hot beverages, be prepared to move and to be moved..." - [Occupy Sandy Relief NYC]

Aug. 26: New Bremen Public Library will host story time for 3 to 5-year-olds at 6:30 p.m. today.
Aug. 25: The New Bremen Village Council will meet at 6:30 p.m. today.
The St. Marys City Council will meet at 7 p.m. today.
ST. MARYS — Molly Menker has spent the better part of her life so far in the water.
This will be the Memorial High School senior's 14th year swimming on various teams, including the YMCA and the Roughrider swim teams. It was something her parents threw her into and that she grew to love quickly.
"I just started out with swim lessons and the summer swim team when I was little, and it just really clicked and I liked it a lot, so my parents put me into the Y swim team in the winter when I was 7," Menker said.
NEW BREMEN — Tess Moeller, of Chickasaw, says teaching in city schools, while never the environment she saw herself in long-term, taught her that the less students had the more they needed their teachers.
"The kids didn't have as much home support," Moeller said. "Knowing they felt the safest and most loved when they came to school made me know what an impact teachers can have on students."
Aug. 23: The Governor's Cup Regatta is today.
Bluesfest is today at K.C. Geiger Park in St. Marys.
The Dog Days of Summer Dog Show will be held from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. today at True Value Hardware in Minster.
IT Services Manager Fred Miller will help you Access eBooks on Multiple Devices. Bring your Kindles, Nooks and tablets to learn how to download eBooks from FJ Stallo Memorial Library. Call the library at 419-628-2925 to register. Class size is limited.
ST. MARYS — A portion of the St. Marys River turned red on Thursday.
St. Marys Safety-Service Director Greg Foxhoven said an equipment failure at an industrial account on McKinley Road caused approximately 55 gallons of food grade red dye to be sent into the wastewater system of the city of St. Marys. After passing through the city's system, the water was then discharged into the St. Marys River — as is typical with the finished water at the facility.
CELINA — Trevin Sanders will more than likely never see the outside of a prison cell.
Mercer County Common Pleas Judge Jeffrey Ingraham sentenced Sanders to two consecutive terms of life in prison without the possibility of parole for his role in the murders of Colleen and Robert Grube in November 2011. The sentence was identical to the one handed down to codefendant Bryant Rhoades last week.
ST. MARYS — K.C. Geiger Park will once again echo with the sounds of blues as an annual music festival returns this weekend.
The 2014 Riverside Bluesfest kicks off on Saturday with a slate of bands the blends nationally known acts with local artists. In addition to live music, the one-day festival will feature a slew of food and beverage vendors as organizers continue to tweak the event.
"We are trying to make it a little more unique," said Dave Stilwell, an organizer of the event.
Aug. 18: Kids in Kindergarten and older are invited to the FJ Stallo Memorial Library at 1 p.m. today to watch a classic movie.
A Meet the Teacher Craft will be hosted at New Bremen Public Library from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. today. Make a craft at the library and bring it to your new teacher that night. All ages are welcome. Sign up is required at 419-629-2158.

Summer Afternoons Well Spent at Sam's Chowder House
I've admitted a number of times that the Summer sun has brought on an intense craving for shore-style seafood. So when I was invited to enjoy a meal at Sam's Chowder House, I couldn't turn it down: nestled on a quiet corner of the California coast in Half Moon Bay, Sam's has long been one of my favorite seafood restaurants — not only for the view, but also for the fresh fish. Can't make it there just yet? Get a glimpse of the mouthwatering dishes and the jawdropping ocean views when you read on.

Love, love, love Sam's Chowder House! Lucky for us, it's only about a 30 minutes drive. The food is to die for, the views breath-taking and the staff and customers are down to earth & friendly. Oh yeah, their calamari brushetta is the bomb!

Waaaah! I'm 3,000 miles from Sam's Chowder House. But that Cioppino makes me think it might be time for another trip west.

Re:That son of a bitch (287 comments)
The last time this story ran, he was helping a woman figure out what was wrong with her Macbook. Afterwards people said to her, "do you know who that was?"
Can you link to the article where this story appeared? I'd love to see the original text, sounds like a great little tale to share with people.
SecondLife has been doing it since 2005 (141 comments)
Microsoft has patented this in 2006.
Second Life has been doing this since March 2005.
There are also other, less known virtual worlds that have been doing it since prior to 2005.
(I think Active Worlds had this running in the same year or earlier? Needs to be checked.)
I wonder if this patent would hold against this sort of a prior art?
Re:This is not targeting Second Life (180 comments)
What has been described in the press so far doesn't sound anything like Second Life, except at the most superficial level. These systems are targeting things like IMVU and Puzzle Pirates. There are more similarities between Slashdot and Livejournal than there are between Second Life and Sony Home.
Parent has it right.
This is targeting the "We (corporate) create stuff - you buy it" market, that is populated by the mainstream typical user who doesnt want to learn how to create their own content or shape their own environment.
This is about you coming in and buying like a good little consumerist, then going to a fancy club populated by other cool people and run a dance animation for 2 hours trying to get compliments for your self assembled looks and get people to go play a game with you.
Ofcourse, this stuff is happening in SecondLife - but that is because SecondLife enables people to create an environment where this is possible, as well as other places where other types of behavior are encouraged.
Doing anything except for this particular behavior is not going to be possible nor encouraged in Sony's Home service.

As far as I can see, no.
This isnt about your content: This is about them selling YOU content.
Ofcourse, they may add some ways for you to make a buck, or I suppose other people will come up with ways to make a buck despite Sony's objections (e.g. coming up with gold farming in EverQuest).
Heck, look at SecondLife: Its own in-world currency wasnt worth anything other then being a game token until someone decided it was worth real life dollars. And the rest is obsessed, greedy, overly-advertised history.
RTFA: Not even close to SecondLife (180 comments)
"Ryoji Akagawa of Sony said that around 24 game design companies would provide the content needed for Home - but didn't give much else away. "
This is nothing like SecondLife, then - barely even an imitation.
SecondLife is about user content and creativity while Sony's - and quite possibly Microsoft's - solution is about you paying them for the right to purchase items created by other companies. You have zero capacity to create your own content and items.
In other words, this isn't a virtual world: This is a 3D chat room, straight from the jolly 90's.
