I am moving from California to Missouri. Can I take flowering plants and/or cuttings with me? |

I've moved hundreds of plants many, many times. I recommend digging with dirt around the roots, and putting into a plastic grocery bag, then wrapping the handles back and forth around the stem. Tie the handles, with just a little room to add water if you need to. Good luck!! |

Check with your inspection station. I know some parts of CA have those inspection stations that do not allow live plants to leave the state unless they have been through decontamination. Same with FL |

Assad: Syria wants better ties with US
DAMASCUS, Syria (AP) -- Syria's president told a visiting U.S. senator
Wednesday his country wants to develop relations with the United States
after several years of tensions.
Bashar Assad's talks with Sen. Benjamin Cardin, a Maryland Democrat,
focused on developing bilateral relations "through serious and positive
dialogue based on mutual respect and joint interest in finding just
solutions to the region's problems," Syria's official news agency
His visit comes after President Barack Obama offered to engage countries
that had been at odds with the U.S. He is to be followed by two more
congressional delegations to Damascus this week, including one headed by
Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman John Kerry.
The Syrian news agency said talks also dealt with Middle East developments
and "what could be done to boost peacemaking efforts in the Middle East,
in addition to the need to combat terrorism."
Cardin was quoted by SANA as emphasizing the importance of continuing
dialogue between Damascus and Washington.
U.S.-Syrian relations have long been tense, particularly since the U.S.
ambassador was pulled out by the Bush administration in 2005 to protest
Syria's suspected role in the assassination of former Lebanese Prime
Minister Rafik Hariri in neighboring Lebanon. Syria's army was in Lebanon
at the time, but Damascus denied involvement and was forced to withdraw
its troops.
In an interview published Wednesday in Britain's Guardian newspaper, Assad
said that he has been impressed by friendly gestures from Obama but is
still waiting to see results.
Assad was quoted in The Guardian newspaper as saying he is encouraged by
the new U.S. president's promise to engage with nations that oppose
"We have the impression that this administration will be different, and we
have seen the signals. But we have to wait for the reality and the
results," Assad was quoted as saying.
Assad said he would welcome the return of the U.S. ambassador. "An
ambassador is important," he was quoted as saying. "Sending these
delegations is important. This number of congressmen coming to Syria is a
good gesture. It shows that this administration wants to see dialogue with

- Electric car charging stations picking up momentum in Marin
Coulomb Technologies, based in Campbell, has received $54 million in state and federal grants to provide a number of its charging stations to municipalities, businesses and individuals free of charge. The stations normally cost about $5,000 each, said Mike DiNucci, Coulomb's vice president of strategic accounts. Much of the funding was allocated as part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act.
It costs about $1,000 to install each station. The Marin Clean Energy Authority board is considering allocating $5,000 to help pay for the installation of five stations among its member jurisdictions - San Rafael, Mill Valley, San Anselmo, Sausalito, Tiburon, Belvedere, Fairfax and the county of Marin.
Dawn Weisz, the authority's interim director, said that the city of San Rafael and the county of Marin have the inside track to secure installation money from the authority because each has already identified at least two sites where they'd like to install stations.
Bob Brown, San Rafael's director of community development, said, "We're looking to put the initial two stations in the easiest location for us cost-wise, which is the C Street garage.
Dianne Steinhauser, executive director of the Transportation Authority of Marin, said the authority is seeking funding to install 34 charging stations at 17 sites throughout Marin County.
On Wednesday, the authority received word that the Metropolitan Transportation Commission has approved grant applications that will provide more than $2 million for charging station installation throughout the Bay Area. Steinhauser estimates Marin County will be eligible for about $500,000 of that grant.
Steinhauser said additional money for charging stations will become available if Marin voters approve Measure B on the Nov. 2 ballot. The measure would authorize a $10 fee on the registration of vehicles for transportation-related projects designed to reduce traffic, maintain roads, improve safety and reduce air pollution.
Bill Carney, president of Sustainable San Rafael, said, "The current rollout of electric vehicles for the mainstream market is beginning late this year. What San Rafael and the Transportation Authority of Marin are doing is trying to get in place an infrastructure of charging stations that will provide some support for the vehicles that are coming on line."
Carney said electric cars can play a major role in reducing the greenhouse gases that cause global warming.
"You're replacing the direct burning of fossil fuels in gasoline tanks," Carney said.
He said even electricity generated by coal-fired power plants produces less greenhouse gas than gasoline engines. In California, only a small amount of the electricity is produced using coal, he said. Weisz said currently 76 percent of the electricity the authority supplies to Marin customers is generated without creating greenhouse gases.

TROY -- The complicated legal case of John Halacy came to a close on Monday.
After two felony convictions, the most recent: Rape in the second degree, 24-year-old John Halacy was sentenced to four years behind bars followed by three years of supervision.
That sentence runs concurrent with time he's been serving for an attempted burglary in Colonie.
"It's over for him and I'm glad about that, it's over for his family, I'm glad about that, he can get on with his life, finish his time, and then move on from here," says Halacy's attorney, Arthur Frost.
Halacy's attorney tells CBS6 his client has already spent a year and half behind bars for the rape charge he pleaded guilty to back in May.
On Monday in court, Halacy publicly apologized, "I know what I did was wrong," says Halacy. "And I thank everyone who has supported me through this, especially my lawyer."
Halacy must pay $1,425 in fines and will need to register as a sex offender as soon as he's released from prison.

Customer Review Summary for Image Dynamics CTX-65 | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
March 28, 2012 | Good Quality For The Price |
Review by
T-town from Tulsa, Oklahoma
A little background. Replaced the factory setup in a 2011 Toyota Prerunner (4 door) pickup. Used ID 12 sub behind the seat. a Set of CTX-65's n the back doors. and 65 series components in the front doors. Running the CTX's off of head unit power believe it or not from a Kenwood Excelon.These really would sound great at about 125 watts give or take each of clean power but I did not want the headache of pushing the stock charging/battery system to power another external amp. intention of these speakers in the doors is to fill in between the sub and the front anyway. Great mid bass! mid range is decent not exceptional and the tweeters are good at the 25 or so watts running though them. Crossed over at 60HZ on up th eo do the trick. They would not hit as hard as the component set no matter what the power but are close and a great compliment. Both the CTX-65 and component equivalent are bass heavy which suits me fine. I also have deadened the doors and interior with Fatmat a great idea for many reasons...run these with a minimum of 60 watts each of good power and they'd be fine or use them to simply fill in and transition between the sub and front and you can run them with less power but cross them over for clean sound. I run Linear Power amps modded by TIPS to put out about double wattage at .001% distortion on the rest of the system and these fill in fine but wouold be awesome at 60-100 watts of clean power I may add an amp for them later on currently the entire system is right at 1300 total watts.

Dec. 15 (Bloomberg) -- Euro-area finance ministers may meet Dec. 19 to discuss country contributions to the International Monetary Fund, Dutch Finance Minister Jan Kees de Jager said.
"We don't yet know the exact amounts, that is being discussed now in the euro working group," De Jager told parliament in The Hague today. "Maybe there is a euro group on Monday" and after that we'll know the exact contributions.
De Jager told parliament he expects the Netherlands to contribute around 14 billion euros, with a maximum of 17 billion euros, to help the IMF fight Europe's debt crisis.

.- A group of 528 young people from Chile who traveled to Sydney for World Youth Day returned home on Thursday and shared with reporters their renewed zeal for the faith after their experience with Pope Benedict XVI and thousands of young people from around the world.
"The encounter we experienced was wonderful, we received the power of the Holy Spirit and we were able to share with young people from all over the world," said one of the Chilean youths who was on her way home to the city of Punta Arenas.
"The encounter strengthened my faith a lot, it was an unforgettable experience," another girl from the group said. "These are unique experiences that happen every 20 years, like when Pope John Paul II came here. Now it was my daughter's turn," said the girl's father.
A mother of some of the other young people in the group told reporters, "They need to have these kinds of experiences more often, so that they themselves can spread the love of Christ to other young people."
Galo Fernandez, a youth minister who traveled with the young people, said, "We need to have the strength to want to be builders of a more fraternal world animated by the faith. We need the power of the Holy Spirit to proclaim to Gospel to all without fear and with respect for cultural diversity and for different opinions."

We stayed 3 nights in the Greenbiar room. It was so nice to come back to a nice and relaxing room each day after square dancing at the convention center. The location was perfect, just over a mile away. Easy to get to the convention center and the activities on Markham street. The breakfast were filing and satisfying and we were ready for another busy day. Breakfast each day in the dining room was different and tasty. The room was clean and very comfortable with a warm comforter. Our room looked just like the picture.

I stayed 3 nights in this wonderful old house adapted for modern and seasoned travelers. Traditional but not too "antiquey" looking. Clean and quiet. Loved walking past the Governor's mansion just a few blocks away. The owner Susan provides an excellent home cooked breakfast. The French toast was outstanding! As a male traveler used to staying in business hotels, I found this charming place refreshing and pleasant.

My husband and I stayed at one of the cottages and loved it! So clean, comfortable, and nicely decorated with a wonderful patio and garden. The Rosemont will serve all your needs and comforts for a stay at Little Rock. Great breakfasts, too!

My girlfriends and I have stayed here in the spring for the past two years. The grounds are beautiful and if you are lucky with your timing, the Wisteria will be in bloom! Susan is wonderful and always accommodating!! We have stayed in every room in the main house and they are all beautiful and clean. The breakfast is amazing! Our favorite is the stuffed french toast. We plan on staying here every year!!

We were given a great room with veranda, kitchenette and bathroom with tub. It was a stroll to the centre but manageable even in the March heat. Excellent conversation over breakfast. Recommended.

My brother and sisters and I were in LR for a family reunion and wanted some time to ourselves. Rosemont was a wonderful find. We stayed in one of the cottages. With two bedrooms and two baths we had plenty of room. We enjoyed playing guitars and reading, talking, lounging in the living room. The decor was fun and just homey enough so we felt comfortable. Breakfasts were great - and delivered to us each morning so we could eat in the dining room. We loved it and will stay here again whenever we are in Little Rock.

We weren't convinced we'd like this experience with a B&B even though it was a gift from our wonderful son. Our memories of long ago nights spent in B&B's in Europe were not all pleasant. Rosemont was completely different! A brand new TV was being installed when we arrived on a cold Friday afternoon and immediately the fireplace was lit for us. As we enjoyed hot coffee and tea, we knew our comfortable and charming cottage was perfect. Among the many amenities we enjoyed, we can't fail to mention the breakfasts that Susan Maddox, the inkeeper, delivered to our cottage on Saturday and Sunday mornings. Our son was able to join us and that made it seem like home. Since we left, we've tried to duplicate the dishes that were served but somehow it's just not the same. You HAVE to go there!

December 31, 2011. The last day of the year..and what a great way to end it! We the "Italian Bunch" or the "Gang of Eight" from Texas, descended upon the Susan, the gracious innkeeper of Rosemont B&B with a raucousness and self determination that only we could muster! What a great reply we had! Susan met us with a great big smile and equaled our entry with gentle approval! The rooms were large and spacious with plenty of bed covering to keep us warm during the below freezing nights! Our breakfasts were not only filling (an important pre-requisite) but tantalized the tongue with their varied ingredients. We stayed three nights and were comfortable enough to wish there were time for a few more nights. A most pleasant sojourn! Mike M. Dallas

My husband and I stayed at the Rosemont for some much needed time away. We found the B & B to be peaceful and cozy. Susan was a gracious and accommodating host. She knows the area very well and was able to give us directions when we wanted to go out. She prepared us a very filling, very delicious breakfast. Our room was clean, comfortable and very true to it's history. We were not ready to leave!!! Oh, I don't want to forget our favorite part...the front porch swing, the weather was lovely, so we spent alot of time outside. Thank you, Susan, for making us feel like special guests.

The Rosemont was a great place to relax after a day of touring. Everything was so comfortable - gas fireplace warmed the rooms, outdoor porch attached to our room, quiet neighborhood, lots of extras - better than a continental breakfast, complimentary wine in the evening, books galore all over, snacks available 24/7. And a relatively inexpensive price. We would love to stay there again.

Anybody who thinks PC gaming owns over consoles. That would be gamers.
[Edit]By the way I didn't start the whole Xbox thing three posts ago but let me finish it for you: It's funny how a question about up and coming DLC can turn into a discussion about a low-res gaming experiences; isn't it? [/Edit]

Yeah, I am eagerly waiting for DLC. 150+ hours in, maxed out my skills/levels, finished the main storyline and all factions (except Stormcloaks because I sided with the Imperial Legion, because Ulfric persecuted my fellow Dunmer), did the Daedric and Divine quests, and got all Steam achievements: I'm ready for some new stuff to do other than radiant quests.

I'm going to say that $19.99 is a fairly high asking price for Dawnguard, but that's only because I've got less disposable income than I did before the summer started.
3rd Aug 2012, 04:58 PM | #427 |
I'm afraid I burned myself out on Skyrim.
after maxing my main character I sort of just stopped playing, like completely. I couldn't find the motivation to finish the primary quest chain even though I finished virtually all faction quests. I'll take a look at Dawnguard, but something tells me it won't change anything. this is exactly what happened to me with Borderlands. I played the **** out of Borderlands for like 3 months and then suddenly I just stopped dead in my tracks and never touched it again. it's like suddenly the combat and gameplay just became so repetitive that no matter what kind of weapons or gear I had - and no matter what kind of quest I was on - everything started to feel the same. and when everything starts to feel the same, you feel like you're doing nothing at all. I'm not sure how DLC is going to change this for Skyrim

oh I've done all that.
I maxed out my main character but I've had 2 others for different styles of play and novel approaches. and I was playing other games in between Skyrim (same goes for Borderlands). I've never played only one game at a time. just saying though, none of this has really helped. |

I took a break from Skyrim sometime back in January for mostly the same reason. I had beaten the main quest and played just waaaay too much of the game. Didn't pick it up again till dawnguard and the time off from the game really made a difference. I made a second character as well just so I could play both sides of the DLC...but haven't finished the vampire side of the game cus...well, to be frank the Vampire Lord transformation is really cool and all but it kind of breaks the game for me. I play this on Master difficulty and...it's just too damn easy to turn into that thing.
Finished the dawnguard side of the DLC though and enjoyed it. Very much like the new armors and crossbows. Still, I think they may have waited just a little too long with this one. The game is fabulous but it doesn't have the lasting power of Fallout New Vegas, and that one had four DLCs released through a year of release. |

I couldn't even get there. The sword play was too bland for me to keep at it, all the focus and diversity was done on mages/spells.

I finally got Dawnguard and Heartfire DLCs a couple weeks ago and have been playing again. I also loaded up a ton of mods; mostly new houses, better horses (inventory, mounted combat, horse armor, companion horses, etc.) and a re-balance mod that makes the game actually challenging for non-mage characters. Also a texture pack and lighting mod that make the game much more atmospheric.
It's still as good as it was last year. Is anyone else playing Skyrim these days? |

text: [Please keep discussion on website at lfs.org! Thanks] Hi mirror admins, As you may be aware, the website team is working hard on implementing a CMS for easy maintenance and more features for the website. This inevitably has consequences for our mirror setup. Until now, we've had a very simple setup: a mirror just rsyncs a directory and is done. That's going to change a bit. The CMS we've picked is TWiki; see http://twiki.org. It has been chosen because: - it offers several possibilities of mirroring - it has very modest server requirements (Perl in its most basic configuration) - it can fullfil all other functions that are requested by the community. See http://test.linuxfromscratch.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/WebsiteFeaturesTodo Our requirements for the new mirror setup were: - it should be integratable in RR-DNS - page edits should only take place on belgarath - mirroring should be easy and secure Based on that, our proposal is as follows: - we implement a RR-DNS system but keep belgarath reachable - for updating of the pages, a user has to login. We will hardcode this login to belgarath. Editing also takes place on belgerath - mirrors thus get a read-only copy of the TWiki installation, which is otherwise perfectly usable. - in order to keep mirrors up-to-date, it's necessary to "push" our changes to the mirrors - we offer rsync as daemon or rsync+ssh for changes We've created a proof of concept on http://test.linuxfromscratch.org. Jeremy Huntwork has been so kind to test the mirror synchronization; any changes which are made on test.lfs.org are automatically propagated to his mirror at http://lfs.jenacon.net. He's also written up detailed instructions at <http://test.linuxfromscratch.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/WebsiteMirrors>. Please read them and tell us if you find our solution acceptable, or if you have a better solution. Note that the test.lfs.org isn't ready for general consumption or criticism yet and we need to work on the features. The migration will probably not take place before the end of the summer (I'm hoping for september/october). -- Groeten/Greetings, Jeroen Coumans {faq,firstname.lastname@example.com www.jeroencoumans.nl

Greece is breathing a sigh of relief after European leaders pledged to provide a second bailout to the financially strapped nation.
The 109 billion euro ($155 billion) rescue plan is intended to prevent Athens from defaulting on its massive public debt and stabilize the common European currency.
The plan was announced Thursday by Eurozone countries and the International Monetary Fund. Greece got itself into trouble after years of overspending. Thankful for second bailout deal, Greek Finance Minister Evangelos Venizelos promised to cut the nation's budget deeply in the years ahead.
"The situation is difficult of course. The problem is great. Our responsibility is great in terms of time and history," he said.
Although protesters have taken to the streets against the budget cuts, Greece has passed a five-year plan that reduces spending and privatizes many government operations.
"It is of great importance that we make use of every opportunity, every moment to the full extent, as we have now a new momentum," Venizelos said.

A.M. Best Affirms Ratings Of American National Insurance Company And Its Subsidiaries
A.M. Best Co. has affirmed the financial strength rating (FSR) of A (Excellent) and issuer credit rating (ICR) of "a+" of American National Insurance Company (ANICO) (NASDAQ:ANAT). Additionally, A.M. Best has affirmed the FSR of A (Excellent) and ICR of "a" of American National Life Insurance Company of Texas, Garden State Life Insurance Company (League City, TX), Standard Life and Accident Insurance Company, American National Life Insurance Company of New York and Farm Family Life Insurance Company (both domiciled in Glenmont, NY), all subsidiaries of ANICO. The outlook for all ratings is stable. All the above companies are headquartered in Galveston, TX, unless otherwise specified.
The rating affirmations of ANICO are based on its good consolidated risk-adjusted capitalization, improved GAAP and statutory earnings including a turnaround in the health line of business, diverse product offerings, which cover life, annuities, health, and property/casualty insurance segments. The ratings also recognize the recovery in ANICO's investment portfolio performance, which has resulted in higher net investment income for 2010, as well as realized and unrealized gains in its fixed income portfolio rather than significant losses due to the financial crisis of 2008-2009. ANICO benefits from revenue and income from diverse sources, which include its life/health and property/casualty affiliates, as well as from its non-insurance affiliates. A.M. Best also notes that the financial leverage at ANICO remains modest relative to its consolidated equity level.
Partially offsetting these positive rating factors are ANICO's high exposure to interest-sensitive liabilities, variability in GAAP and statutory earnings over the past five years, particularly in its property/casualty lines, growing exposure to mortgage loans and real estate holdings and the challenges of optimizing the company's returns on a sustained basis.
The ratings of the life insurance subsidiaries of ANICO acknowledge their improved operating trends, more than adequate risk-adjusted capitalization and continuing contribution to ANICO's consolidated results. Partially offsetting these positive rating factors are the life subsidiaries' somewhat fluctuating premiums and earnings trends, limited business profiles and the challenges to grow their business lines.

Science is showing that plant-based diets can benefit people and the planet. Researchers at Loma Linda University in California analyzed both greenhouse gas emissions and mortality rates for over 70,000 participants from a large prospective cohort study (Adventist Health Study 2). The scientists found that the food choices of semivegetarians (eating meat more than once a month but less than once a week) and vegetarians were linked to 22% and 29% lower greenhouse gas emissions respectively than nonvegetarian diets. Additionally, the mortality rate for semivegetarians and vegetarians was 20% lower than the mortality rate of nonvegetarians.
American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. 2014 June 4;100(Supplement 1):490S-495S. [Epub ahead of print] (Soret S et al.)
Health Studies
Vegetarian Diets Have Lower Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Lower Mortality Rate
Vegetarian Diets May Lower Blood Pressure
Researchers in Japan and the United States reviewed data from over 21,000 people to investigate the association between vegetarian diets and blood pressure. After analyzing 32 observational studies and 7 controlled trials published between 1900 and 2013, the scientists found that eating a vegetarian diet is associated with a significant reduction in both systolic (4.8-6.9 mm Hg decrease) and diastolic (2.2-4.7 mm Hg decrease) blood pressure compared with diets that include meat.
JAMA Internal Medicine. 2014 April; 174(4):577-587 (Yokoyama Y et al.)
Plant-based Diet Declared the Healthiest
Because traditional nutrient analyses can't account for the complex interactions between food and nutrients, scientists have begun using more holistic dietary pattern analyses to assess overall diet quality. In this study, researchers analyzed the self-reported eating patterns of 1475 adults in Belgium against both the Healthy Eating Index (HEI-2010, a measure of how well a diet conforms to the 2010 U.S. Dietary Guidelines) and the Mediterranean Diet Score (MDS, a measure of how well a diet conforms to the Mediterranean diet). In both measurements, participants with vegan diets (diets that exclude all animal products, including meat, fish, dairy, and eggs) came out with the highest score. Additionally, the vegan diets were found to have the best fat profile, the most fiber, the lowest calories, the most fruits and vegetables, and the lowest sodium. These findings are significant, because researchers point out that "high scores in both indexing systems (HEI-2010 and MDS) are related with positive health outcomes."
Nutrients. March 2014;6(3):1318-1332.
Nuts Associated with Lower Mortality Rate
Researchers examined the eating patterns of more than 76,000 women and more than 42,000 men over 24 to 30 years to assess the health effects of eating nuts. They discovered that eating nuts is associated with a reduced risk of mortality overall and specifically from cancer, heart disease, and respiratory disease. As nut consumption increased (from none at all, to weekly, to daily), the incidences of mortality also decreased. Researchers noted that all types of nuts appear to have the same health benefit and did not see a difference between individual types, including peanuts and tree nuts.
The New England Journal of Medicine. 2013 November 21; 369:2001-2011 (Bao, et al.)
Nutrient Profiles of Vegans Point to Lowest BMI
When researchers at Loma Linda University conducted a cross-sectional study of 71,715 subjects from the Adventist Health Study 2 to compare nutrient intakes between dietary patterns characterized by consumption or exclusion of meat and dairy products, they found a clear connection between diet type and weight among five groups: meat-eaters, semi-vegetarians, pescatarians, lacto-ovo vegetarians, and vegans. Vegans were found to have the lowest average BMI, while meat-eaters showed the highest, along with the highest intake of heart-disease related fatty acids. Vegans also had the lowest occurrence of obesity (9%) compared to 33.3% of meat-eaters. The average age of study participants was 59.
Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. August 2013. (Rizzo, Jaceldo-Sigl, Sabate, Fraser.)
Fruit Consumption May Lower Risk of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm
Researchers in Sweden followed the fruit and vegetable consumption of more than 80,000 men and women over a 13-year period to investigate the relationship between fruit and vegetable consumption and occurrence of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). The aorta is the body's largest artery. A bulge in the aorta's wall in the abdomen is an abdominal aortic aneurysm. A ruptured aneurysm causes internal bleeding and can cause death. The research team found that people who ate more than two servings of fruit per day had a 25% lower risk of developing AAA and a 43% lower risk of rupture than those who ate less than 7/10 of a serving of fruit per day. They found no relationship between vegetable consumption and risk of AAA.
Circulation. 2013; 128(8):795-802. (Stackelberg, et al.)
Study Shows Vegetarian Diet Leads to Longer Life
A study conducted as part of the Adventist Health Study 2 found that adhering to a vegetarian diet led to lower all-cause mortality. The study conducted by scientists from Loma Linda University in California analyzed information collected from a group of Seventh Day Adventists taking part in a cohort study. They found that not only is a vegetarian diet associated with lower all cause mortality but also lower cardiovascular, renal, and endocrine mortality.
JAMA intern Med. 2013; 173(13):1230-1238. (Orlich et al.)
Vegetarian Diet and Heart Health
A group of scientists in England conducted a study that looked at 44,000 people enrolled in a study in England and Scotland. They measured factors that are related to heart health and ischemic heart disease. After comparing vegetarians to non-vegetarians they found that vegetarians were 32% less likely to develop ischemic heart disease.
Am J Clin Nutr. 2013; 97:597-603. (Crowe et al.)
Med Diet Healthy and Affordable
A study published in the Journal of Hunger and Environmental Nutrition helps debunk the myth that the Mediterranean Diet is cost prohibitive for families on tight budgets. The Rhode Island Community Food Bank sponsored a six-week cooking program focused on plant-based cooking with olive oil. Study authors followed the 63 participants for six months to determine whether their grocery shopping and cooking habits changed as a result of the program. At the end of the study participants had decreased their total food expenses, purchases of meat, and consumption of "junk" food. Results also suggest that eating 2 to 3 vegetarian meals per week increases fruit and vegetable consumption and helps with weight control.
Journal of Hunger and Environmental Nutrition. March 2013; 8(1). [Epub 2013 March 14] [Flynn, Reinert & Schiff]
Vegetarian Diets and the Incidence of Cancer
Using data from the Adventist Health Study-2 researchers from Loma Linda University in California looked at the relationship between vegetarian dietary patterns and the incidence of cancer in a low risk population. In this prospective study, vegetarian diets appeared to confer protection against cancer. A vegan diet appears to have the overall lowest risk of cancer and female-specific cancers; a lacto-ovo-vegetarian pattern provided greatest protection from gastrointestinal cancers.
Cancer Epidemiol Biomarkers Prev. 2013; 22:286-294. (Tantamago-Bartley et al.)

Democracy Now! reports the latest on the previously discussed sinister and corporate power-grab:
… Read the restAs the federal government shutdown continues, Secretary of State John Kerry heads to Asia for secret talks on a sweeping new trade deal, the Trans-Pacific Partnership.
The TPP is often referred to by critics as "NAFTA on steroids," and would establish a free trade zone that would stretch from Vietnam to Chile, encompassing 800 million people and nearly 40 percent of the global economy. While the text of the treaty has been largely negotiated behind closed doors and, until June, kept secret from Congress, more than 600 corporate advisers reportedly have access to the measure, including employees of Halliburton and Monsanto.
"This is not mainly about trade," says Lori Wallach, director of Public Citizen's Global Trade Watch. "It is a corporate Trojan horse. The agreement has 29 chapters, and only five of them have to do with trade.

Protestant religious movement that originated in the U.S. in the 19th–20th century. It is characterized by a belief that all Christians should seek a postconversion religious experience called baptism with the Holy Spirit. The experience corresponds to the descent of the Holy Spirit on the twelve Apostles (Pentecost) and is evidenced by speaking in tongues, prophesying, and healing. Pentecostalism grew out of the 19th-century Holiness movement and shares its emphasis on biblical literalism, conversion, and moral rigor. The charismatic movement in Roman Catholic and mainstream Protestant denominations represents the same spirit. Today there are many Pentecostalist denominations in the U.S. and around the world, including the Assemblies of God. Penetcostalism has been especially successful in the Caribbean, Latin America, and Africa.

Utah forecast: A broad-brimmed hat and sunscreen kind of weekend
Time to dust off those broad-brimmed hats and slather on the sunscreen: Utah's weekend forecast calls for rising temperatures under bright, clear skies.
Temperatures along the Wasatch Front on Saturday are expected to climb into the low- to mid-80s, the same range forecast for Friday — minus the late afternoon thunderstorms and gusty winds.
In other words, it will be the kind of weekend the late Janis Joplin's "Summertime" blues classic advised us to "rise up singing . . . spread your wings [and] take to the sky."
Southern Utahns were in full-blown shorts, tank tops and sandals mode. Highs both Friday and Saturday were to flirt with, or top, 100 degrees.
The warmer weather translated to a Flood Advisory for northeastern Utah's Vernal area as accelerated mountain snowmelt was pushing up the level of the Green River and its tributaries.
The Utah Division of Air Quality predicted "yellow," or compromised breathing conditions statewide through the coming weekend.
The Intermountain Allergy & Asthma website's pollen index was "high" only for grass and plantain.

Toyota Set to Rebound, Japan Investor Says
How are car-recall issues at Toyota reverberating in Japan?
Abe: Japanese people deep in their hearts are sympathetic. Yet, Toyota had to correct many things. They really created a dynasty that has been successful for such a long time. They have to reflect about what went wrong. That said, the things that they did wrong were really far less than the things they did well. So I am a strong believer that Toyota will revive. As a matter of fact, their base earnings are clearly reviving at a yen level of 90, according to what the company announced. So once they get over these problems in an honest and a clear manner, I am sure Toyota will be the one to lead the auto industry.

Self-Compassion: Stop Beating Yourself Up and Leave Insecurity Behind (Hardcover)
Shipped to Tattered Cover in 3 to 7 days
From leading psychologist Dr. Kristin Neff comes a step-by-step guide explaining how to be more self-compassionate and achieve your dreams in life
The relentless pursuit of high self-esteem has become a virtual religionand a tyrannical one at that. Our ultracompetitive culture tells us we need to be constantly above average to feel good about ourselves, but there is always someone more attractive, successful, or intelligent than we are. And even when we do manage to grab hold of high self-esteem for a brief moment, we can't seem to keep it. Our sense of self-worth goes up and down like a ping-pong ball, rising and falling in lockstep with our latest success or failure.
Fortunately, there is an alternative to self-esteem that many experts believe is a better and more effective path to happiness: self-compassion. The research of Dr. Kristin Neff and other leading psychologists indicates that people who are compassionate toward their failings and imperfections experience greater well-being than those who repeatedly judge themselves. The feelings of security and self-worth provided by self-compassion are also highly stable, kicking in precisely when self-esteem falls down. This book powerfully demonstrates why it's so important to be self-compassionate and give yourself the same caring support you'd give to a good friend.
This groundbreaking work will show you how to let go of debilitating self-criticism and finally learn to be kind to yourself. Using solid empirical research, personal stories, practical exercises, and humor, Dr. Neffthe world's foremost expert on self-compassionexplains how to heal destructive emotional patterns so that you can be healthier, happier, and more effective. Engaging, highly readable, and eminently accessible, this book has the power to change your life.
About the Author

A pioneer who first established self-compassion as a field of study almost a decade ago, Dr. Neff gives lectures on self-compassion internationally and conducts workshops for those who want to learn more about developing self-compassion.

We're here at ASUS's press conference in Barcelona, where the company has just unveiled two new Android products: the Padfone Infinity and Fonepad.
The Padfone Infinity is the follow-up to the Padfone 2, released late in 2012, which was the successor to the original Padfone that debuted at MWC last year. The Fonepad is a tablet that also works as a phone. Right (if you actually want to know more about those things, see this post).
The real story for me, though, was the absolutely fantastically ridiculous press conference. Crammed into a small hotel ballroom across from the Fira Gran Via, a couple hundred tired and annoyed tech journalists waited for the show to begin - ASUS was running about 45 minutes late, and was playing what I can only describe as an instrumental rendition of 'Milkshake.'
Then, it happened: THE CLOUD.

I know the golden hen is a Buff Orpington, but what type of chicken is the gray hen? Any guesses? :) |
Image link: what breed is this hen? (51 k)
Follow-Up Postings:
Siamese, I don't know what breed she is, but I have a pullet that looks just like her that I bought at a week old. She has the green legs like americaunas, but no beard or tufts. Clean face... Thoughts anyone? Suzie |
My hen has yellow skin and is just starting to get a little comb. I think she is about 6 months old now-about 4-5 mo in the pic. |
- Posted by emluchsinger z4 - Upstate NY (My Page) on Mon, Nov 1, 04 at 15:38
I'd say a dark Brahma... although the pic of her is not very clear. Check out www.feathersite.com That will confirm my prediction. |
She doesn't have feathered feet and she's more upright and slim than the Dark Brahma. I think she may be a cross of some sort (leghorn x some type of gray chicken?) I'll take a better pic of her. |
silverlaced wyandotte? |
- Posted by AmandaAlna Midcoast Maine (My Page) on Thu, Dec 9, 04 at 15:48
i wouldn't say that this is a wyandotte. the tail is much too pronounced. wyandottes tend to have tails that slope more gradually into the body, which is fatter than on this girl, like the buff orpington/wyandotte (i'm guessing) next to her. as a 5 month old pullet, though, she could still be developing. in which case, blue wyandotte, but i doubt it. it looks like she's developing a rose comb in the picture, although it's hard to tell. i think i might see some lacing through those pixels, but it's too dull to be silver. it's more like blue. the color in general is called blue by poultry people. if her neck was darker than the rest of her, i'd say blue andalusian, but since it's not, i'm stumped as well. based on shape, i'd head towards andalusians/minorcas/hamburgs in your research. ahem. in conclusion, it's either a blue wyandotte, a blue andalusian, some combination of the two, or something else entirely! |
Sorry I couldn't get a better pic, my camera is messed up. I've been looking through some chicken breed pictures and think she *might* be a Blue Andalusion X Leghorn. My neighbor gave her to me and most of their hens are Leghorn X's. Her comb is still growing and looks like it will fall over her eye like the Blue Andalusion-but she has yellow skin like a Leghorn. |
- Posted by undercover_owl PortlandORz8 (My Page) on Wed, Jul 6, 05 at 17:02
Probably she's a mixed breed, but whatever she is, she's pretty! |
She Is A Silver Campine Looks Like. |
Silver penciled wayandotte, I think. What breed is my hen? |
Here is a link that might be useful: My hen
- Posted by alyciaadamo 3/4 (My Page) on Sun, Aug 30, 09 at 9:32
I was wondering if you found out what kind of hen this is? My thoughts are- could be a silver penciled hamburg or campine. I agree that it looks like a leghorn cross to. Just read over your last post, she most probably is a Leghorn cross. It doesn't matter what color the rooster or even the hen was. just look at sexlinks- the hen is black or red and the rooster can be anybody and the chicks still looking like neither the hen or rooster! You have very beautiful chickens makes me miss my cochins! |

Nice looking hens. botanical_drifter |
Perhaps a Pekin barred rock? |
