EVERYTHING is GF!!!!
3050 Jackson Rd, Ann Arbor, MI 48103
Pretty big GF menu! Dinner was tasty. Must remember to bring my own crackers to try the smoked salmon spread.
3544 Meridian Crossings Drive, Okemos, MI 48864
Dinner was great. I was surprised when I ordered the baby back ribs off the menu and she brought them out "dry" aka plain - no sauce. She told me the sauce had gluten. I appreciated her looking out for me, but would have liked to know that beforehand! So she went in the back and got some "undoctored" GF bbq sauce - phew! The ribs were sooo good. I had a choice of two desserts - creme brulee and a flourless chocolate cake. I went with the cake, very fudgy and delicious!
55 Main St, Watertown, MA 02472
Loved it so much, we ate there twice! Wish they had one by me (in Michigan).
782 Harwood Hill Rd, Bennington, VT 05201
Although they didn't have a GF menu, they were super accommodating and created a safe dish for me. The view from this place is spectacular, I'd go back for the view and their wonderful attitude.
3940 Rivertown Pkwy, Grandville, MI 49418
Nice menu, great staff - they double checked everything for me and with a smile on her face! Highly recommend the spinach artichoke dip - yummy!!
5375 Airport Hwy, Toledo, OH 43615
I think I could have loved this place.... except they served me the wrong appetizer which was full of gluten! I specifically ordered gluten free, when she brought me the dish I asked "this is gluten free" and the waitress said it was. After I'd finished it she came over and said she was sorry she'd brought me the wrong dish. I said "well, it was still gluten free, right" and she said she didn't know and was it a problem for me? She went to check and came back and said it was not gluten free, but I shouldn't worry as it's "just a little and someone who works here can't eat gluten and she said it doesn't bother her much". She apologized and offered to comp my meal, yet when she brought the check I was still charged for my appetizer. I pointed it out and she took it off. If there was bread, I didn't get any - but of course I lost my appetite quickly anyway.
341 East Liberty Street, Ann Arbor, MI 48104
Imagine hearing "almost everything is gluten free"! Upscale, more traditional, Mexican food. Food was outstanding, served tapas style - so we got to share and try lots of dishes. I can't wait to go again!
344 West 9 Mile Road, Ferndale, MI 48220
Best meal out in a long time! GF items marked on menu, and they had lots of daily specials too. Waiter was very knowledgeable, and gave us fantastic service. Lots of veggie items too - and not your standard salads either.
241 East Liberty Street, Ann Arbor, MI 48104
Fantastic! Very aware about cross contamination, although it is a shared kitchen. We shared a savory crepe and a desert crepe. Little pricey, but very tasty and big portions. Gluten free crepes are made with buckwheat.

Hey, did you know that videogames are made by people? It's true! Real, live people with their own unique thoughts, opinions, personalities and senses of humor. Imagine the stories such people might tell… especially when discussing the thing they spent literally thousands of hours struggling to put together.
This, after all, is why movies have director tracks, why books have forewords and why albums have liner notes – discovering an artist's creative process, no matter what the medium, is fascinating. So why don't more games give us that glimpse?
Portal did. Today, we learned that Monkey Island 2 Special Edition will as well. Here are the next five games we'd like to learn everything about:
Too Human
The original Too Human, first announced back in 1999 for the Sony PlayStation, was to be an epic sci-fi adventure that spanned four discs and transported players centuries into their own future. The eventual Too Human, finally debuted in 2008 for Microsoft's Xbox 360 after a cancelled release on Nintendo's GameCube, was a forgettable hack 'n slasher that fit on a single DVD and focused on cyberpunk Norse mythology instead.
Nine years of development. Three different platforms. Two lawsuits, and one incredibly outspoken and controversial game designer. How could you not to want to hear this story, told by those who experienced it?
Final Fantasy
Unfunny people love to point out that the Final Fantasy series can hardly be called "final" if we're now playing the thirteenth one. Those twelve sequels, however – as well as the countless spinoffs they inspired – almost never happened. The first game's creator, Hironobu Sakaguchi, really did believe that Final Fantasy would be the first and last in the franchise… and his final failure before quitting game development and returning to college.
How does he feel looking back on Final Fantasy's miraculous success? What was he forced to cut due to the lack of faith and resources for his project at the time? And what bold, experimental stuff did he throw in when he thought no one was going to play the thing anyway?
Modern Warfare 3
Overnight. That's how quickly Modern Warfare 3 went from a surefire mega seller to a question mark. From a guaranteed Game of the Year contender to a distracting source of rumors and controversy. From a loyal and satisfied fanbase to an audience of angry skeptics demanding answers. To be more specific, that's how long it took for news to spread that publisher Activision had just fired two senior employees at developer Infinity Ward for "breaches of contract and insubordination."
Sure, the game hasn't been officially announced yet (except through the details of a lawsuit). Sure, the nearly 20 additional employees who have since resigned are but a minority of the entire development team. And sure, Modern Warfare 3 will probably still be fantastic. But no matter what the end result, we want to hear the unofficial behind-the-scenes story, even if somebody has to enter the Witness Protection Program in order to tell it.
Katamari Damacy
Hell, we'd pay money simply to sit in on the pitch. "You're a prince…" Okay, sounds safe enough so far. "Who wears a pillow for a hat, takes orders from a giant metrosexual drunk of a king, listens to Engrish lounge music and rolls new planets out of lawn ornaments, parked cars and screaming children." Goddamn, that's gold!
Honestly, though, it was. And we'd love to hear from the inspired (possibly mad) genius that was able to pull such bizarre and disparate elements together. They could at least explain the whole space shuttle thing – that was weird even for this game.
We imagine this audio track would consist mostly of crying. Soft. Sad.
Six more games that demand commentary:

(Updates with Telefonica comment in second paragraph.)
June 10 (Bloomberg) -- Telefonica SA, Spain's largest phone company, shelved a share sale of its Atento Inversiones & Teleservicios SAU unit after a discount in the offer price failed to entice investors amid tumbling equity markets.
The initial public offering of the call center business was suspended indefinitely because of "unfavorable market conditions," Telefonica said in a statement today. It had received orders for 97 percent of the stock, according to a sales update e-mailed to clients today and obtained by Bloomberg News, after slashing the price.
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Cesar Alierta, who had tried to sell Atento as early as in 2007, is seeking to reduce debt and focus on Latin America to offset declining domestic market share. Telefonica's decision to suspend the Atento IPO may herald difficulties for Spanish lenders and the state in holding a series of initial public offerings this year.
"The difficult market conditions that Telefonica faced with the listing of Atento are similar or actually not as bad as the ones we can expect from Bankia and Banca Civica because of the deep trouble the banking industry is going through," Luis Benguerel, a trader at Interbrokers in Barcelona, said by phone.
Bankia, the lender formed by a merger of seven savings banks led by Caja Madrid, plans to raise as much as 4 billion euros in an IPO next month.
Banca Civica, formed from the combination of four savings banks including Caja Navarra, also plans for a listing in July. The government is planning an IPO of lottery business Sociedad Estatal Loterias y Apuestas del Estado.
Price Cut
Telefonica said yesterday it had cut the lower end of the price range to 17.25 euros a share from an initial range of 19.25 euros to 25 euros and gave investors another day to place orders. At the lower price, the stock sale would have raised about 580 million euros ($833 million).
Citigroup Inc. and Goldman Sachs Group Inc. had managed the IPO, along with Banco Santander SA, BNP Paribas SA, JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria SA.
Telefonica's attempt to sell Atento shares came as political wrangling over the future of Greece is infecting Europe's markets.
The Stoxx Europe 600 Index fell for a sixth straight week today, the longest losing streak since 2008, as concern increases that Greece will default and U.S. economic indicators from housing to payrolls missed estimates.
Telefonica shares fell 1.5 percent to 16.19 euros today in Madrid trading, the biggest decline since May 6. Spanish bond yields rose to the highest in almost three weeks.
Losing Money
Telefonica sold a stake of its mobile unit Telefonica Moviles SA for 11 euros per share in 2000 in an initial public offering before buying it out in 2006. The Spanish telephone operator also offered 5.25 euros a share for the 62 percent it didn't own in its internet unit Terra Networks SA in May 2003. Goldman Sachs Group Inc. led an initial public offering of Terra stock to institutional investors at 13 euros in 1999 and the stock soared to 157.65 euros in February 2000.
"Investors still remember other Telefonica listings from which we lost money such as Telefonica Moviles and Terra Networks," Benguerel said.
Atento's revenue rose 26 percent last year to 1.66 billion euros, with the largest part coming from Brazil, while Telefonica had sales of 60.7 billion euros. The unit's operating profit before depreciation and amortization increased 23 percent to 190 million euros. Atento had 151,896 employees at the end of 2010, accounting for about half of Telefonica's workforce.

Newton Citizen
COVINGTON - DeKalb County Sheriff's Office Sgt. Chris Cowan became the final candidate to qualify for sheriff late Thursday afternoon.
Cowan, a Republican, previously ran for sheriff in 2004 and was defeated by current Sheriff Joe Nichols, who is retiring after three terms. "I wasn't able to pursue the goals I had in 2004 and I want to pick up on those goals. They're not lying idle," Cowan said of why he decided to run again. One of those goals is to attain accreditation from The Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies, which Cowan said would bring national and international standards of operation to the department and limit the department's liability exposure. Accreditation could also open the doors for grants and other funding, he said. Cowan spearheaded the accreditation of the DeKalb County Sheriff's Office in 2006. The increase in domestic violence cases is a big concern for Cowan, and he sees a need for a diversion program for men who commit such crimes. Increased criminal activity among the county's youth is also a problem Cowan would like to address. "Our youth need guidance and direction, not criminal records to reflect and dote on. It is a shame that this is what our youth have grown accustomed to," he said. Cowan said he would work to build involvement with parents and the community at large to set up programs, support groups and positive activities for kids. Though the East Metro Drug Enforcement Team was recently disbanded, Cowan said the Sheriff's Office can't let up on pursuit of drug activity. "We've got a drug problem in Newton County. We've had one for a long time. There were reasons EMDET was disbanded, but we need a stronger anti-drug campaign," he said. "I want drug offenders to know it's not going to be tolerated." Cowan has 20 years of law enforcement experience, and said his time in DeKalb County qualifies him to deal with the growing crime rate in Newton. "The same problems DeKalb County has experienced, Newton County is going to be experiencing," he said. "I think it's time to bring the agency to where it needs to be to get ready to work on that growth. I have a lot of good ideas ... If we don't keep the agency along the lines with the growth, if we don't keep up with it, it's going to outgrow us." Cowan grew up in Gwinnett County and graduated from Shiloh High School. He joined the Stone Mountain Park Police immediately after graduation and was hired by DeKalb County in 1990. Cowan spent 15 years in the field operations division and seven years on an investigations unit that dealt with fugitives, fraud and domestic violence. He was promoted to the rank of sergeant and is a shift supervisor in the jail. Cowan moved to Newton County in 1999. He is an assistant scout master for a local Boy Scout troop, works with the youth group at St. Pius X Catholic Church and is chairman of the Veterans Memorial Middle School Council. He and his wife Kym have six children. Cowan faces Stacey Cotton, Marty Roberts and Bill Watterson in the July 15 primary. Ezell Brown and Gwen Hightower are running on the Democratic ticket.

Lawmakers, advocates introduce stun gun billThe Associated Press | February 12,2013MONTPELIER — A group of Vermont lawmakers and the heads of disability and civil rights groups are pushing legislation that would create new rules governing police use of electronic stun guns.
They held a news conference on Tuesday to unveil a bill that would set up statewide training and rules for law enforcement officers using Tasers and similar devices.
The effort follows the death last year of Macadam Mason, a Thetford man who died of a heart attack after a state trooper hit him with a Taser.
Attorney General William Sorrell and the Orange County state's attorney announced last month that Senior Trooper
David Shaffer was justified using the stun gun on Mason last June because the distraught man failed to comply with orders and made threatening movements toward the trooper.MORE IN This Just InPSB orders Full StoryBOYS BASKETBALL Full StoryPROCTOR The Phantoms wouldnt win titles if they couldnt handle a little pressure.

text: The daily gathering of members of a religious community for disciplinary purposes and administration of monastic affairs has always included the reading of a chapter of the rule, and so the assembly became known as the chapter, and the place of meeting the chapter-house. There are various kinds of assemblies: conventual, provincial, and general, the latter composed of delegates of an entire order, congregation, or group of monasteries. The idea of general chapters originated with Saint Benedict of Aniane in thc 9th century, was revived at Cluny in the l0th, and finally culminated in the congregational system promulgated by the Fourth Lateran Council, 1215. Since that time general chapters have been held by practically every order and congregation.New Catholic Dictionary

Paging Smarter Snacks
So you go to the machine, deposit your money, and nothing happens. Worse, you press the button for Coke, and out comes a bottle of tutti-frutti-kiwi-mango punch. You fume, fuss, maybe even give the machine a good thwack.
There's a new generation of high-tech vending machines to answer your frustration: Isochron Data Corporation and Motorola jointly introduced a new online vending system, VendCast, on Monday.
"It's the first vending-machine system that can monitor and transmit information -- about stock inventory, maintenance problems, and sales history -- to the vendor, on a real-time basis," said Isochron president Aruni Gunasegaram.
In the past, vending machines were generally maintained by delivery truck drivers who weren't necessarily prepared to address all customer complaints. Using Motorola's Reflex two-way wireless paging service, the VendCast system allows the vending machine itself to alert a soft-drink distributor of technological glitches, such as a dollar-bill tray that needs cleaning. The data will pass through Isochron's Network Operations Center to the vending-machine operator.
According to Joe Ochoa, vice president of strategic sales for Isochron, the VendCast system will pay for itself in the first year with lower labor costs and increased fill rates. Although he declined to be specific, Ochoa said the per-unit cost of the vending system would be less than US$1,000. The average cost of a cold-drinks vending machine is about $2,500. Commercial distribution of the VendCast system is expected by August or September.
"This is the beginning of the movement of pagers into things -- turning them into things that think," said Jim Page, Motorola's vice president of business development in the company's flex technology and systems division. "Pretty soon this kind of two-way data transmission will be in all sorts of field equipment. The days of the gas-meter man tramping thorough your bushes are about to end."

I use this and the same brand shampoo for Chestnut to Espresso hair and I love it. I went from bleached blonde hair to dark brown last year (with auburn inbetween to fill in the base color) and I have no problem with my color fading, despite taking hot showers (I know, bad for hair and skin but it feels so great during the winter!). I can't stand hair products that leave deposits in my hair, and this product does not do that at all like cheaper shampoos and conditioners can tend to do. My hair tangles really easily with the wrong conditioner, but no matter what I can run a brush easily through my hair after I get out of the shower after using this conditioner. It smells yummy too!
This product is not for me, unfortunately, since the scent is really nice and lingers in my hair. I have coloured treated hair and this stuff strips it right out. I use the moisturizing formula and it leaves my hair incredibly dry, not moisturizing at all. The dryness is so bad that my hair squeaks when I try to run my fingers through the knots. Even my cousin who has virgin hair had trouble with it stripping the natural oils in her hair making it feel like straw. Not a good sign since her hair was normal to begin with. The second and third ingredients are pretty harsh foaming agents from what I've read, which is probably what contributes to the dryness. So no I will not repurchase.
I found out that I am getting a set of my FAVORITE shampoo/conditioner for Christmas, and ran out of my other stuff just 2 weeks ago, so I had to buy something in the mean time that was still decent, but not too expensive.
I remember hearing that someone liked this, so I went ahead and picked it up, slightly blind to how MUA felt about it.
I'm actually pleasantly surprised. IF I style my hair (which I try not to do every day to give my hair a rest), it looks fabulous. Shiny, healthy and feels sooo smooth and soft. However, if I let this air-dry, it is FRIZZ. CENTRAL. It's bad.
My hair also has a nasty tendency to fade to this auburn shade (which isn't so bad, just annoying when I spend money on getting it colored!) and I recently dyed it to a really dark brown, and noticed it had already started to fade back, so this has put it in it's place (so to speak) and kept it a little darker than before, which I like for the fall/winter.
Overall, a nice product for it's price. I won't buy it again because I'm not terribly impressed, but it works well for the meantime that I am using it.
Just a quick review for this one, but I really really did not like this shampoo and its conditioner, I found it made my hair very greasy and I felt like I wasn't doing anything good for my hair, so I threw it out after about 5 tries.
Not worth it in my opinion!
I love this shampoo, it works really well on my hair, and really does bring out a shine. i used to have deep red highlights, so i used the radient red, i lovedddd how pretty the my hair turned out, i decided to not have any more highlights, now i'm back to my brunette hair and i'm loving it all over again, thanks to this shampoo.
PLUS, it smells soooo good, this was the reason i ever tried it in the first place, it sounds like a shallow reason, but hey i'm glad i bought it cause i've been using it for the last 4 years..
Initially i liked this shampoo, my hair didnt feel like straw after i shampooed it, but does leave a film on hair. Did not make my hair shinier or enhance any highlights or anything... Smells good, nice to get away from the fruity smelling shampoos every once and a while. I would not but this again.
After Spending A good amount of money on this product i was expecting lovely shiny hair, but how wrong was i !!! I left my hair SOOO greasy ( I mean before i even dried it, it was so greasy and horrible) so i had to wash my hair again to get all the grease out! horrible would never use it again.
I love this shampoo, especially in combination with the brilliant brunette Shine Release Conditioner! There's several reasons for this: my hair has never been as soft and shiny as when I use this shampoo + the conditioner (and then let it air dry). It makes my natural curls look amazing (!) in a way no other shampoo ever does. Also, a lot of shampoos tend to irritate my skin - this one doesn't. However, concerning shine, it takes several weeks to really see any difference and for me the lighter shampoo (maple) doesn't do anything in that regard, it has to be chestnut-espresso to see any increased shine, even though my hair is medium brown at best.
So you might have to try both shades to see what works for you.
Oh, and another plus: it smells sooooo good. ;)
Edit: I've been using this shampoo (and the conditioner) for a few months now, and my hair has slowly been getting greasier and greasier. I've changed my shampoo and conditioner, and voila! Greasy roots gone. -3 lipsticks, 'cause who wants greasy hair, right? *sighs* So long, Brilliant Brunette...
More reviews by PinkCadillac86
I loved the way it brightened up my hair colour but unfortunately I had to stop using it cause it made my hair so greasy.
I was really disappointed with this product. I really wanted to love it. I bought the shampoo and conditioner because they were in sale. I used them for a week and I started to notice that my hair was dry and dull and this doesn't happen that easily. I had expected a lot from this products but I guess the brand has just good marketing. I love the smell and the packaging though. I didn't notice any spectacular shine, only a couple of hairs that were lighter, but that's all. I will use them until they run out but I will probably not buy them again. What a shame!
*** EDIT *** I have to rate it even worse because it really dries my hair. Only because I do love the smell I will use both shampoo and conditioner to wash my make-up brushes but they will never again touch my hair! :(

A group of young mice is in the ruins of a church, practicing singing for an upcoming service. After singing an adulterated version of "Hark! The Herald Angels Sing," the mice wonder about the last line, "Good will to men." One of them asks the chorus master, an old mouse, "What are men?"
The old mouse explains that they all killed each other off by building bigger and more destructive weapons, first guns, then missiles, then bombs. At the end of the fighting, clouds are seen, implying that nuclear weapons were used by each side.
The old mouse shows the boys some rules to live by that men seem to have forgotten. He is reading from a Bible.

Well, I'm going to try yet again. I generally kill both of these plants. I've tried sun, part shade, dry, not dry, mulched, not mulched.
Do you have any tips that may keep this batch alive? Water, soil, sun requirements? |
Follow-Up Postings:
You can KILL lantana? My wife talks about how pretty it is but as a semi Florida native I've always put it in the category as sandspurs and stinging nettles. |
- Posted by amberroses 9b-Pinellas Co. (My Page) on Wed, May 4, 11 at 8:41
Pentas in my yard like bright indirect sun and regular watering. Lantana likes sun and is drought tolerant BUT since it is so hot and dry right now it might appreciate some afternoon shade and regular watering until it is established. |
- Posted by purpleinopp 8b AL (My Page) on Wed, May 4, 11 at 10:26
I don't know about the pentas, but if you ignore it, or even insult the lantana, maybe cut it down a couple times, let it think you don't want it there, it should last forever. Seriously, though, I know there are different kinds but the common one that makes yellow/pink flowers grows wild up here, usually killed above ground in winter, but always comes back. It's growing along my CL fence and it's a bit of a chore to remove the dead branches in the spring but being a yankee until a few years ago, I just love having it there. All kinds of butterflies visit it all summer. It thrives in my yard and my Mom's a few miles away in unamended soil, no water given except rain. Mine is just in the grass, parts of it get mowed sometimes. Hers is in a flower bed that was mulched once about 4 years ago but the mulch has all decomposed and she just has a leaf cover (oak and southern magnolia) for mulch at this point. Mine get about 4 ft. tall, very upright, thick branches about the size of a sharpie marker, they are in more sun. Hers get about 2 ft in more shade, thinner branches, and are kind of floppy. Should be fine down there where you are. Have you been over-watering maybe? |
- Posted by writersblock (My Page) on Wed, May 4, 11 at 10:44
Yeah, I have a big bed of penta, lantana, and plumbago. I just stuck 'em in the ground, watered them in at first and then never did a darned thing and I have to go in and whack them all back periodically because they try to take over. The plumbago is a bit fussier than the other two, but mostly because they're always trying to crowd it out. I put them all in over a year ago and haven't watered them once since they got established. How far back is it safe to chop pentas? Does anyone know? I've been a little cautious about how much I prune them, but I'd like to give them a good whack before the rains come. |
Both plants seem to thrive on neglect. The only reason I can think of for them not thriving is possibly too much TLC as nothing seems to bother them! I recently transplanted a huge Penta without cutting it back first. I never expected it to survive, but it did! I think the Penta can take a pretty severe haircut without damage - mine have at least! They die back completely in severe cold but pop up again as soon as the weather warms. |
- Posted by irma_stpete z9 FL (My Page) on Wed, May 4, 11 at 12:31
ladywr, my experience has been like yours. However, I have a purple lantana that is in it's 2nd year of expanding and blooming. It gets much sun in a bed between annuals I am hand-watering each day to see how long I can keep them blooming or at least alive. So far so good, and perhaps the lantana gets food and water from it's pampered bedmates. Pentas are on my "tired of trying" list. The ones in the store no longer seem pretty! So many other things, wild or planted, are bringing in the butterflys right now. |
- Posted by ginger_2010 10 - Delray (My Page) on Wed, May 4, 11 at 15:04
I have pretty good luck with Pentas, but I can't get Lantana to grow no matter what I do. I have tried and tried and it always dies. sun, shade, water, no water, ground, pots.. nothing helps. Maybe after reading this I'll try one more time. I've heard that the yellow is heartier? |
I've tried the neglect, and I've tried the attention. Sounds like I need to find that happy medium. I have the "mounding" type of lantana that has lasted a couple years. Planted some yellow and purple lantana today - we'll see what happens! The red pentas will get more water than I have been doing in the past, maybe will have some luck there. If nothing else, guess they will just be pricey annuals. Thanks! :-) |
I agree- I am trying to keep a small bed of pentas alive at the moment, and with the dry spell we're having, I have to water them every other day or they wilt- I just have no patience for it. Decorative plants shouldn't have to be watered so much, IMHO. Lantana----the jury is still out on them for me. The trailing purple seem to do very well for me. The yellow are so-so. Some have bounced back from the freeze, others are still just bare twigs (and I cut them back to about 1/3 in March). The plants that people say are high maintenance are the ones that for me are easy. The "low maintenance" plants for me are the ones that die. Go figure. |
Yep - like me. I'm more than a bit out of zone for fiddlewood and jamaica caper. They're doing fabulously! The caper seems to love it's 3rd location - loaded with buds and is starting to bloom. The fiddlewood hit the right spot the first time. Bloomed all winter. Ah, but it's the joy of gardening! :-) |
- Posted by julieyankfan z9FL Pasco Cty. (My Page) on Fri, May 6, 11 at 11:38
I bought the pretty yellow/pink ones and killed them. Also paid for the yellow - killed them, too. Got a free yellow one from the Green Thumb Festival and it came back even after the freeze! Got 2 free pentas from there and the one in the pot died. The one in the ground lived, but the freeze got it. I had planted it in a space that nothing else grew in and it lasted 2 yrs. I bought 2 yellow/red lantana for a butterfly garden and 3 pentas and so far so good. I intend to ignore them once they are established. |
- Posted by love_the_yard z9A Jax FL (My Page) on Fri, May 6, 11 at 20:49
Oh, no. Don't tell me that nematodes get pentas, too. I just started with pentas this year and decided that I was going to do mass plantings of them. I planted gobs of them. What can one do to prevent nematodes? I know they are down in the soil. Anything I can do to stop them? Carol |
- Posted by writersblock (My Page) on Sat, May 7, 11 at 11:47
Golly, I'm the original grey thumb, but I just don't understand how anyone can have problems with these two plants. I just stuck these in the ground a year ago in December, watered them daily till they took hold and literally haven't done anything since then, not even watering, except to cut them back when they get too exuberant, and they were poor quality plants, too, gift from a neighbor with a knack for picking out the runts from a flat: Sorry about the lousy pic, using my ipod. But my suggestion would be that if you're having problems you're taking too much care of them, most likely. And yeah, nematodes everywhere, but I've never seen them bother these at all. |
- Posted by fl_southpaw 10 (My Page) on Sat, May 7, 11 at 12:30
Hi: I've had the same experience with pentas and I've come to the conclusion that they don't like where I put them. Too close to my foundation, maybe. Or there are nematodes, like Anna said. The bed I've been planting just seems deadly. I've improved the soil but it still slowly kills what I plant. It may just be WHERE you are planting them. Try them other places and see if they like it better. I moved my trailing lantanta to a raised bed along a fence and they are doing great. Again, away from the foundation. Hope this helps. Good luck. |
- Posted by writersblock (My Page) on Sat, May 7, 11 at 15:02
>I've improved the soil but it still slowly kills what I plant. Maybe that's it. The bed in my photo is full of sand and construction rubble left over from when this place was built 30 years ago. It was full of feral lantana before I hacked out space for the other plants. |
Anna, you just have the most wonderful success with some plants. I really enjoy the pictures of your garden. I keep trying different places - maybe one of these it will work out. That's part of gardening and farming - we never give up :-) Thank you all. |

Film Review: Zaat (1971)
SYNOPSIS: A mad scientist transforms himself into an aquatic killer. REVIEW: When I was first alerted about "Zaat", I will confess, it being the first I've ever heard of this title. No mentions in reading, no lost VHS tapes, no late night viewing's in the after hours, "Zaat" was simply off the radar completely.

Crashed drone rescue, Grand Canyon
garymortimer (1882326) writes | about 9 months ago
garymortimer (1882326) writes "In my opinion Christopher should have fessed up to his actions with the park authorities and they might have sent somebody roped up and suitably equipped to recover the Phantom from the tree.
It's a great video, well made and interesting. Christopher, it's not worth endangering the lives of others that might be involved in the recovery of an injured person in a compromised position or worse still a body.
Be careful out there people, your systems are just stuff. If you look through the video comments another YouTube user had the same experience at the Grand Canyon and his Phantom was stolen before he could get it recovered by a climber. Perhaps DJI should extend their no fly zones to include national parks."

The other night, I felt like my head was in a vise. I had chills and sweats. I thought it was subsiding yesterday during the day, but at night I had the same head feeling, and threw up. Not too much better today, and when I take a step, it feels like someone punched me in the chest.
I've had similar headaches before, but not the other symptoms. Anyone know what this may be? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Take Dr. Pris's advise and don't take my advise. Call the doctor. This could be minor or it could be very serious. I certainly wouldn't want to be responsible for someone not heeding the warnings by pooh poohing your symptoms. |
- Posted by oilpainter (My Page) on Thu, May 6, 10 at 22:37
Headaches like that could be migraines or they could be lots of other things including high blood pressure. Only a Doctor can tell you for sure and this is serious enough to get on the phone immediately. Call your Doctor you need this checked out. |
- Posted by joann23456 (My Page) on Fri, May 7, 10 at 22:30
Definitely see a doctor, immediately. A sudden, severe, new type of headache should always be investigated. What if it were something like meningitis? If you've had migraines before, then you know that the severe headache is normal, as is the nausea and throwing up, but not the rest of your symptoms. Do see the doctor. |

Bachelor of Environmental Design in Architecture (B.E.D.A.); Bachelor of Architecture (B.Arch.); Master of Architecture (M.Arch.)

Architecture as Art and Science
Architects must be educated to think critically, to assess holistically, to synthesize comprehensively and to design with environmental responsibility. Marywood's architecture programs—undergraduate and graduate—recognize that architecture, both as a discipline and as a profession, engages the realms of art and science. Buildings and other physical spaces created by architects combine design innovation and aesthetic with the laws of gravity and the requirements of constructability. Architects create unique and highly inventive realities that emphasize organization, proportion, and beauty, as well as material properties, budgets and structural systems.
Pre-professional Degree:
Bachelor of Environmental Design in Architecture (B.E.D.A.) (4-Year)
This degree option focuses on acquiring the skills needed to design buildings and to understand the impact of designs on physical, aesthetic, social, and ecological environments.
Marywood University architecture students will benefit from the University's liberal arts core curriculum, providing the foundation for a profession in which social responsibilities are integral to the practice of architecture. In addition to courses in the social sciences, math, history, science, religion, and a foreign language, students are exposed to courses in critical thinking, writing and literature. The B.E.D.A. curriculum fully integrates these core competencies with the professional course requirements, including architecture topics in structures, environmental science, building systems and other areas of building technology. Eight design studios, each one semester long, serve as the continuous place of exploration and synthesis.
The B.E.D.A. is a pre-professional degree that prepares graduates to: pursue a professional degree in architecture at Marywood; to undertake graduate study at another institution; to be engaged in architecture as a non-licensed practitioner; or to become involved in a number of related professions. Marywood students who have completed the B.E.D.A. degree may apply to the Master of Architecture program with advanced standing and complete their professional degree in a minimum of one-and-one-half years.
Professional Degrees:
Bachelor of Architecture (B.Arch.) (5-year)
The B.Arch program builds on the pre-professional degree by adding courses in professional practice, environmental law, and a selection of more focused program electives. Students are also prepared for the LEED accreditation exam, a national program certifying advanced knowledge in sustainable design practices. All students will be required to become LEED Accredited Professionals by passing this exam prior to graduation.
The Fifth-Year Thesis Project, involving a comprehensive design project formulated by the student in consultation with a faculty committee selected by the student, serves as the capstone project for the professional degree.
Master of Architecture (M.Arch.) (6-year)
After obtaining the pre-professional degree at Marywood, students pursuing the M.Arch degree will need two years of graduate-level study. Certain qualified students may accelerate their M.Arch program for completion in one-and-a-half years.
Professional electives, along with subjects in architectural theory, enable students to expand their knowledge in selected interest areas as they define and structure their Design Thesis—an extensively researched design investigation demonstrating a comprehensive process of hypothesis, analysis and synthesis.
Courses dealing with practice, environmental law, management and policy, and business are intended to give graduates an added understanding of the expanding professional contexts in which architects are practicing. Professional LEED Accreditation is also required to complete this track.

Accomplished Architecture Faculty
Marywood's School of Architecture is a place for research, exploration, and testing ideas. We believe in quilted knowledge -- the notion that we learn most effectively by weaving together concepts to discover meaningful applications. Our facilities support this holistic approach to learning.
The School of Architecture is a state-of-the-art example of sustainable design. It's a spacious, adaptive re-use of Marywood's former gymnasium. It features:
- Two levels of studios
- Fully-equipped woodshop
- Plaster-casting room
- Printers and plotters
- Computer-Aided Design (CAD) lab
- Student lounge
- Reference library
A two-story commons under a continuous skylight harvests abundant natural light throughout the day and serves as the building's "agora" - an open, shared, central space for educational exchanges among students and faculty. This is an ideal place for group discussions, debates, displays, and project critiques.
Every student is provided an individual work space with a drawing board, personal storage area, pin-up wall, and space for a laptop.
In addition to the familiar role of architects as designers of buildings and city-scapes, architecture graduates (including those with the B.E.D.A.) are re-shaping the profession by expanding traditional employment opportunities into these areas:
Digital Visualization
Product Design
Construction Management
Real Estate Development
Interior Graphics
Historic Preservation
Architectural Photography
Urban Design/Planning
Undergraduate Admissions Requirements
- Official SAT and/or ACT scores
- Completed application
- Essay
- Official transcripts
- Letter of recommendation

A mother and daughter both experienced sudden knee pain, even though they are 30 years apart in age. Coincidence, or genetics?
Jessica Cassity, 31, says:
My symptoms started on the weekend of my 29th birthday. I thought, Uh-oh, am I getting old overnight?
That weekend I went for a run, and afterward I noticed a big swollen lump behind my right knee. I spent the next year seeing orthopedists— four of them, each of whom came up with a different diagnosis and treatment.
The first one took a lot of x-rays and said certain muscles in my leg were too weak, but that didn't explain how I got the swelling, so I tried a second doctor. He ordered an MRI, then glanced at the written report while talking on his cell phone to his wife. He didn't even look at the films. He said I had "a little arthritis" and prescribed physical therapy, which didn't fix the pain. The third orthopedist, who actually looked at the MRI images, said, "Wow, you have really severe arthritis. I'll cut a wedge out of your shinbone and reset your knee—and by the way, you'll be in a cast for four months."
That's when I decided to try one more doctor. He agreed with the arthritis diagnosis and explained that the lump came from fluid that the body sends in to cushion the rubbing of bone on bone. But he said, "Major surgery is always the last thing we do." I went with Doctor No. 4.
He wound up doing minor exploratory surgery to see how bad the damage was. During the procedure, he scraped down the cartilage to make it smoother and ease the irritation. He said I already had stage 4 arthritis, which is as bad as it gets.
I had always been an overzealous exerciser. I did ballet from the age of three to twenty. For seven of those years, ballet was my whole life. I took classes five days a week and often rehearsed for a couple of hours after that for performances.
It wasn't just the pounding of the joints that wore down my knee. In ballet, you turn out your feet rather than point them straight ahead. That built up the muscles on the outside of my thighs but left me with weak inner-thigh muscles. When I straightened my knees all the way, my kneecaps went sideways instead of up and down the way they are supposed to, which meant they were constantly scraping the cartilage. So now I'm working on strengthening the muscles in my inner thighs. I see an Alexander Technique practitioner, and I teach Pilates. And last year I started biking, which doesn't put much pressure on the knee. I also take fish oil supplements, which seem to help reduce the swelling.
According to my doctor, I have the knees of an eighty-year-old woman. What will they be like when I'm actually 80? Metal and titanium, probably.

An Independently-Made Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Movie Exists and This Trailer for 'Casey Jones' Will Prove It
Movie News By Scott Beggs on August 7, 2011 | Comments (16)Wow. I love the age we live in and the things people do with their time and money. Someone somewhere thought it would be a solid idea to make a vigilante movie about Casey Jones from "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles." That someone was Polaris Banks, that somewhere was Austin, and besides having an awesome comic book villain name, Banks has put together a movie that looks like it's fun as hell. I say looks, because this trailer doesn't have any dialog in it. But it does have a bad ass in a hockey mask doing a lot of street sweeping. And, no lie, Casey Jones has a human-sized, mutated turtle kicking ass right alongside of him. Watch this thing and revel in its glory:
