Politics Weighs Down San Bernardino's Economic Problems
By editor
Originally published on Wed July 18, 2012 1:41 pm
The city of San Bernardino, Calif., is expected to declare a fiscal emergency, and officially file for bankruptcy on Wednesday. The declaration would be the third by a California city in recent weeks. Some analysts believe San Bernardino's problems may be more about its dysfunctional local politics.

Today while cleaning my garden I noticed that my spent flower stalks were full of aphids. Not just a few I mean every bit of area was covered and the leaves had started turning black. I cut them down to the ground to protect my roses and other plants, which are having a second flush with the cool weather in VA. The stalks were firm and looked healthy from the inside. Has anyone else had this problem and what should I do next year to protect them from this problem? |

Gwinnett Daily Post
Wrapped around Thanksgiving are three great local wrestling tournaments this week, featuring some of the top teams in Gwinnett County and the state.
Parkview will host its annual Panther Duals today along with the Wesleyan Duals. On Saturday, the Butcher Choice Duals will take place at Grayson. The Panther Duals will feature four teams ranked in the top 10 in Georgia. Along with No. 10 Parkview, No. 4 Ola in AAAA, No. 3 Gilmer in AAA and Class AA's No. 1 team Henry County will be there. Gilmer has won four state championships since 2005 and Henry County, which features two defending state champions, shared the Class AAA traditional title last season. Across the county in Norcross, Wesleyan hosts a dual tournament, which will feature two top-five teams in AAAAA in Union Grove and Centennial. On Saturday, Wesleyan will be one of four Gwinnett teams at the Butcher Choice Duals hosted by Grayson. Dacula and Shiloh also will be in the tournament along Apalachee, Redan, Social Circle, Lovejoy, Stephenson and Northview. Gwinnett teams off to hot start The wrestling season began last Saturday and four Gwinnett County teams brought home hardware. Wesleyan, Parkview, Dacula and Duluth all won the tournaments Saturday. Wesleyan had the most impressive showing. The Class A private school defeated Whitewater, the No. 1 team in Class AAAA, 40-36 to win the Alexander Duals. Parkview won the Blackbeard Duals, Duluth took home first at the Comet Classic and Dacula claimed the Rumble championship. Wrestlers in football playoffs The quarterfinals of the state football playoffs are this Friday, which means some schools will be without top wrestlers again this week. Grayson, North Gwinnett and Wesleyan all have starters still in football pads. The Rams' Tucker Kreis (112 pounds) is the starting wide receiver for 12-0 Grayson, which hosts defending state champion Lowndes. Joseph Champaign (215) is the county's leader in sacks and Jack Dunster (152) and Clayton Hyde (160) are also on the football team. Wesleyan is without Drew Carroll (152), Cole Watson (189), Jimmy Dugal (285) and Chris Zalesky (160/171). The Wolves travel to take on Miller County in Friday's Class A football quarterfinals. North Gwinnett's Francisco Trevino (145), Agie Tarwoe (160/171), Warren Roberts (171/189), Ayo Ojola (215), Rahmil Brantley (215), Anthony Yi (285) and Kevin Kang (275) are all members of the Bulldogs' football team, which plays at Newnan on Friday, and could see some mat time this season. Rare dual loss for Eagles When Collins Hill lost to Pope in its season opener Saturday 33-29, it snapped a 36-match winning streak against Georgia opponents. The loss is a little misleading since the Eagles were without seven starters, including defending state champion Taylor Knapp. It was Collins Hill's first dual loss to a Georgia school since the 2007 state duals when it lost to McEachern. Since then, the Eagles had won 36 straight dual meets. Their only dual losses last year were to out-of-state teams. It was Dec. 2005 when Collins Hill last lost at home when Oviedo, Fla., beat the Eagles 38-24 at the Kyle Maynard Duals.More like this story

Goldman Sachs Tops List of Hedge Fund Giants
In a sign that hedge fund investing is becoming more and more of a game for the big guys, Goldman Sachs Asset Management, with $21 billion in hedge fund assets, tops the list of the world's 100 biggest hedge fund firms according to Alpha Magazine's annual ranking released this morning. Alpha is part of Institutional Investor, and its Hedge Fund 100 list, compiled since 2002, has become a benchmark tool for investors trying to identify who the top hedge fund players are in dollar terms.
Last year's top-ranked firm, San Francisco-based Farallon Capital Management, fell to number four, despite a $4 billion rise in assets. Goldman has seen its asset size increase by 85% each of the past two years. In 2004, the firm was ranked number 24 on the list with $5.4 billion in assets, and last year it had grown to $11.2 billion. The 2006 rankings reflect asset sizes as of Dec. 31.
"Goldman Sachs has the market penetration, the depth, the talent and the brains," says Steve Drobny, founder of Drobny Global Advisors, a hedge fund advisory firm, and author of In The House of Money, a recent book on macro investing. "They've been successful in the real-asset management space and have been able to convert that into the hedge fund space. They have caught on to the hedge fund opportunity."
Over the past few years, hedge funds have increasingly catered to institutional investors, such as pensions, endowments and foundations, whose appetite for hedge fund assets have grown dramatically. Those institutions seek large managers with scalable investment strategies and well-diversified platforms. Institutional investors represented 28% of the hedge fund assets in 2005 and are expected to grow to 42% by 2010, according to Donald Putnam, founder of Grail Partners, an advisory merchant bank. One of the other reasons large hedge funds are playing an increasingly important role is their trading edge. "You need to deploy a lot of money in and out as opportunities come and go,

DPI of Rochester -- Sustainability by Design
November 2008 By Cheryl AdamsManaging Editor
"Did you know that older, inefficient toilets are responsible for most of the water wasted in American homes and businesses?" he asks. "That's why we decided to use low-consumption toilets. Also, when selecting a drainage system, we installed a gravity drainage system, wherein the forces of gravity handle drainage without the need for a mechanical pumping system, therefore eliminating energy consumption."
Energy and Atmosphere. DPI has captured many of these opportunities, including installing the latest energy-efficient HVAC units equipped with air-side economizers, which use fans to draw cooler air inside without conditioning it during summer and, conversely, circulate heat generated from printing presses to help keep the facility warm in winter. The HVAC units also use high-voltage direct electrical current to reduce energy loss.
DPI's other green energy and atmosphere initiatives range from installing metal halide and fluorescent lighting and automatic passive infrared (PIR) wall switches, to investing in motion-sensor paper towel and soap dispensers, to utilizing window tinting instead of blinds.
Materials and Resources. DPI has become a steward of the environment, consistently practicing source reduction and recycling. In addition to those initiatives, it has replaced alcohol dampening systems with aqueous solutions, employs scrap removal systems, monitors air emission, is FSC certified and uses vegetable-based inks.
Indoor Environmental Quality. "Have you ever been to a printing facility that does not smell like one?" asks Matt Kellman, executive vice president. "If your answer is no, we invite you to take a tour of our plant. To ensure good air quality, our HVAC systems have been properly designed, installed, operated and maintained. We have installed exhaust systems located at the delivery and above the dryer system of our offset presses. We have also installed a make-up air system in our chemical storage room and in our air compressor room."
Innovation and Design. The materials DPI used to reconstruct its facility and loading dock addition were chosen wisely, Kellman says, noting that the facility is a prefabricated steel structure made from recycled scrap metals, and the steel structural components are 100 percent reusable.
To advertise its greenness," DPI has incorporated a signature statement into all of its business correspondence: "Digital & Commercial Offset Printing: Think green before you print." The company even created what Kellman describes as a "very cool lizard" to promote its Green Steps program.
The little green lizard story is just one of many that Kellman likes to tell. He admits that he talks about DPI every chance he gets—from his first stop at Starbucks in the morning until his workout at the YMCA at the end of his day. He tells anyone who will listen that DPI (formally Digital Color Imaging) was started in the mid-80s as a prep house for area printers and ad agencies. DCI jumped into the offset printing arena in 1999 with a new six-color, 40? Komori press with coater.
"DPI was an upstart when 9/11 hit," Kellman reports. "That put a great strain in the regional marketplace, but we survived with good ol' fashion hard work. Quality and the ability to hit very demanding schedules has become our trademark."
DPI grew rapidly between 2005 and 2007, and, by the end of 2008, it expects to have doubled its annual sales to more than $8 million. Digital printing has also been a successful venture, as it now totals more than 25 percent of the company's business. Kellman says a pair of HP Indigo presses have separated DPI from "the pack of iGens and Nexpresses in the Rochester market." In 2007, the second Indigo and another six-color Komori with coater were installed as part of the company's relocation.
Between eco-friendly technology, a sustainable facility and its Green Steps program, Kellman contends DPI has earned the reputation of being one of the greenest and most efficient printing facilities in Western New York. He credits his staff for embracing the Green Steps and for taking them to heart every day.
"The best reward for Jim and I has been the high level of buy-in from our employees," Kellman concludes. "We are all very proud of the Green Steps program. That translates back into pride in the workplace. And, in this very demanding industry, that doesn't always come easily." PI

Sipatiniz: Stay Classy With The Spill-Proof Martini Glass
by Beth Graddon-HodgsonMartinis have become the drink of choice for those looking for a classy cocktail. On Sex and the City, Carrie Bradshaw and her core group of classy friends never seem to spill a drop of their infamous cosmopolitan martinis. In real life, the rest of us should only be so lucky; martini glasses just seem to be designed for spill. Perhaps it's a conspiracy by the liquor companies to have martini lovers dispense more money for their favorite classy mixed drinks, or just a greater emphasis upon the look of the martini glasses over function, but spills are an unfortunate reality of martini drinking. Enter the Sipatiniz, the spill-resistant martini glass.

by MichelleDr. Yoshiro NakaMats has shattered the world record for most patents held that was formerly held by Thomas Edison. He currently holds over 3000 patents and is Japan's most prolific inventors. One of this most influential inventions was the floppy disk, which he invented when he was 23 years old as a student.
BBC's series "Adam and Joe go Tokyo", interviews Dr. NakaMats. Adam and Joe Go Tokyo was a eight episode series that was aired on BBC Three and BBC One in 2003. The show was originally rumoured to be called Asian Invasion, and showed Adam and Joe looking at Japanese culture, music, meeting famous Japanese people and unforgettably trying to become famous in eight weeks.
This invention video is an amusing and fascinating opportunity to see Dr. NakaMats, one of the most prolific inventors of all time, show off a few of his inventions. I wonder how sales for his Love Spray is doing. You can learn more about Dr. NakaMats on his website Dr.Nakamats.com
The video is about 6 minutes long. Enjoy. read more »

American Inventor Judge DOUG HALL BLOGGED LIVE! - Anecia Car Seat Survival Capsule – Q&A
by Doug HallMy choice for the final four is The Anecia Survival Capsule. It's the invention of Janusz Liberkowski
This invention is a true "new to the world" concept. As such it has generated a lot of technical debate and discussion. I do not presume to know all of the answers. However the following are my personal perceptions and opinions. They are not the opinions of Janusz, Freemantle, the producers, ABC or anyone else.
1. How does the Anecia Survivor Capsule work?
When a car crashes there are two collisions. The first is when the car hits the other car or obstacle. The second is when the baby hits the seat belt or when the baby's head get's shaken and snapped in the direction of the impact, at the same speed that the car was going before the crash. read more »

What Does It Mean to Be in the White Lantern Corps?
By The Cyan Lantern 0 Comments
Like any other corps you need to bear the ring to be a corps member. We did see 10 members in Blackest Night #8 which quickly faded away. So far the only permanent corps member is Deadman. But when in issue Brightest Day #7, the resurrected had rings for brief 1 or 2 seconds. Since the ring is not on them, does it mean they are not corps men and women?

The Grammy award-winning band Train hit the stage Saturday at the the Rimrock Auto Arena at MetraPark for the MontanaFair, bringing almost every one of the 7,400 fans who packed the place to their feet, where they remained for the duration of the show.
Jamie Porter, the operations director for MetraPark, said it was one of the largest turnouts ever for a headlining band at MontanaFair.
And as Train's lead singer Pat Monahan interacted with the crowd, it wasn't hard to see why.
As he sang "If it's Love," Monahan turned to the crowd and told them to get their phones ready. He wanted to take some selfies with them.
Hands sprung into the air almost immediately. As Monahan made his way across the stage, he snapped photos of himself with the crowd in the background.
"I looked terrible in each one of those pictures," Monahan joked with the audience afterward.
And as he introduced Jimmy Stafford on lead guitar, he grabbed T-shirts and threw them to the crowd.
"This is exactly what Billings needed," said Patti Helmt, a lifelong resident of the city. "We need more of this."
The pop band opened with the song "Parachute," and went on to play crowd favorites like "Calling All Angels" and "Meet Virginia," during which Monahan asked the crowd, "Do you remember this one? I know I do."
As Train performed, the crowd sang along, danced and snapped pictures as the fog rolled from the stage into the audience and the lights flickered from purple and blue to yellow and red.
In addition to some of the latest songs off his new CD, he also played some covers.
"This one is dedicated to anyone who can remember it," he said, going on to play Led Zeppelin's "Ramble On."
For Mandi Fischer, the concert was an early birthday present.
A huge Train fan, Fischer said she couldn't have asked for a better gift from her father.
Fischer, who turns 31 in August, came with her sister Elli Fritz, 17, of Laurel.
Fischer and Fritz both grew up listening to the band.
"I was so excited when I found out they were coming," Fischer said. "We don't normally get shows this big."
Brian Null, owner of a Billings DJ company, said he's more of a metal head, but even he couldn't resist the catchy tunes.
"He's got one of the most beautiful voices for a man," Null admitted.
"Why don't we come here more often?" Monahan asked the crowd at one point. "Congrats on living in such a beautiful place," he said.

Mercedes C320 Replacement Belts Information
The Mercedes C320 is a luxury executive car that belongs to the famous C Class of cars. This line of cars has been in production with several different models since 1993. The C320 uses an internal combustion engine that has a few essential belts that run some important systems. The engine needs the timing belt and the serpentine belt in order to function. The timing belt is made of rubber and has teeth shaped into it to regulate the engine valves. At specific intervals this belt will cause the valves to open and close. The serpentine belt is just as important to running the car. It is responsible for powering the alternator, air conditioning, and other electrical components. The car would run on battery power and shut down very quickly without the serpentine belt. Belts should be checked and replaced when necessary. New belts are available online through Parts Geek.
They are available for the following Mercedes C320 years: 2005, 2004, 2003, 2002, 2001, 05, 04, 03, 02, 01. This part is also sometimes called Mercedes C320 Multi Rib Belt. We stock belts parts for most Mercedes models including E320, C230, 300D, ML320, 300E, E300, 190E, S500, SLK230, 300SD, C280, ML430, 300SE, S430, 300TD, E55 AMG, ML350, C240, S420, C220, E420, 300SDL, 240D, SL500, S320, 500SL, E430, ML500, 300TE, CLK320, 560SL, S600, 420SEL, 400E, CLK430, E350, 380SL, C300, 500SEL and 350SD.
We stock these Belts brands for the Mercedes C320: ContiTech, AC Delco, Dayco and Gates.
Everything arrived in good condition, shipping was prompt and hassle free. Will consider doing business again. I hesitate recommending them with their you pay all shipping both ways even if it's our mistake policy, but I guess if they never make mistakes; but they apparently felt they had to make that a policy. To their credit, no mistakes on this, my first order so far, prices are good, and selection on the web-site is quite good.
I received what I wanted quick and at a very fair price. A. Lochotzki

"This is wonderful and such a great value - especially if you buy your ingredients from the Dollar store. I use it every day fresh out of the shower and sometimes mix a little "smelly" lotion with it depending on my mood of the day!"
"This was a great recipe! I've even had someone ask me to pass on the recipe. Not so sweet so you can actually taste the apples. Try it, you'll like it! It is now in my online cookbook."

Soweto man drowns in stream
Comment on this storyJohannesburg - A 52-year-old man drowned in a stream between Doornkop and Emdeni in Soweto on Tuesday, Gauteng police said.
Police divers found his body one kilometre away from the area from which he went missing on Monday, said Warrant Officer Kay Makhubela.
"He was found dead," Makhubela said.
The incident stemmed from flooding in the area, where at least five people were rescued from rivers in a rainy Gauteng on Monday, officials said at the time.
Two men and a woman were rescued from a stream in flood in Naledi, Soweto, by local residents, Johannesburg disaster management spokesman Robert Mulaudzi said.
The three had been swept away by a strong current as they were trying to cross the river.
Mulaudzi confirmed that most of the streams in the city had increased water levels after the rain of the past three days.
Dozens of roads in Soweto, including Elias Motsoaledi Road, Main Street and Sifuba Street in Dobsonville and Mahalefele Drive in Dube, were closed due to flooding on Monday, officials said.
Low lying bridges were flooded at Kinini Street in Mofolo Central, Vilakazi Street in Mofolo Park, Mila and Armitage Streets in Orlando West, Mlambo Street in Meadowlands Zone Five, and Vundla Street in Moroka.

Scientists Describe Molecular Characteristics of Lung Tumors
- Posted: December 17, 2001
Scientists report that they were able to distinguish between the patterns of gene expression for two common types of non-small cell lung cancer, squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma, in the current issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences*. The study was a collaboration between government, academic, and industry scientists.
"We hope that the molecular signatures we identified will eventually allow us to predict the clinical course of lung cancer and provide potential targets for rational therapy of the disease," said Jin Jen, Ph.D., the principal investigator, currently at the National Cancer Institute's Center for Cancer Research. "This is a first step toward that goal."
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death for both men and women and kills more patients than the next five most common cancers combined. The vast majority (85%) of patients who develop lung cancer die from it. Nearly 80% of lung cancers are non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Using a gene expression technique known as SAGE (serial analysis of gene expression), the scientists compared the patterns of gene expression of squamous and adenocarcinomas lung tumors to normal lung epithelial cells. They created a total of nine SAGE libraries -- collections of expressed genes or transcripts -- from various tissue sources: primary lung tissue removed from 2 patients with squamous cell carcinoma and 2 with adenocarcinoma; 2 primary epithelial cell cultures from the small and large airways for normal controls, and a lung adenocarcinoma cell line. After sequencing more than 300,000 gene transcripts from the SAGE libraries, the researchers used various statistical methods to determine the genes that were uniquely expressed in each tumor type compared to the normal controls. They discovered that 115 genes could differentiate between the two tumor types and normal tissue. This is the first report to look at gene expression patterns in different lung tumor types using SAGE analysis.
"We were surprised to get such a clear-cut distinction between normal and tumor cells," said Jen. "And it didn't seem to matter which patient the tumor came from. The genes expressed from the same tumor types clustered together."
The researchers found that genes associated with detoxification and antioxident properties are highly expressed in squamous cell tumors. These genes include glutathione peroxidase, glutathione S-transferase, carboxylesterase, and aldo-keto reductase. Their presence in squamous cell lung cancers which are usually centrally located in the lung and associated with tobacco smoking, probably reflects a response by the bronchial epithelium to carcinogenic insults from the environment.
In contrast, genes that were highly expressed in adenocarcinomas are related to small airway-associated proteins and immunologically-related proteins. The researchers hypothesized that this finding reflects the fact that these tumors are generally found in the peripheral portion of lungs and are thought to be derived from small airway epithelial cells. They also found that many of the genes underexpressed both in the primary adenocarcinoma and the adenocarcinoma cell line were associated with squamous cell differentiation.
Because the SAGE technique was used on only 4 tumor samples, the researchers corroborated their results with two more commonly used gene expression techniques, real-time PCR (polymerase chain reaction) and cDNA microarray analysis. They found that 5 highly-expressed genes they had identified by SAGE analysis in either adenocarcinomas or squamous cell carcinoma were also highly expressed using real-time PCR. Similarly, microarray analysis revealed similar patterns of underexpression for genes most highly differentially expressed by SAGE analysis.
Two previous papers appearing in the November 20th issue of PNAS also looked at global gene expression patterns in lung tumors, using microarrays, and found distinctive patterns for the different lung tumor subgroups. Mariana Nacht, Ph.D, first author of the paper and senior scientist at Genzyme Molecular Oncology in Framingham, Mass., was pleased at the agreement between the groups, especially because the earlier studies used a much larger sample size. "I think the degree of overlap is very comforting. Interestingly, we were able to draw many of the same conclusions with just a handful of samples because SAGE data is much more quantitative and reproducible than microarray data."
There have been several attempts to look at global gene expression patterns in other tissues. Previous reports identified subtypes of tumors for B-cell lymphomas, breast cancers, and leukemias. Besides tumor subtypes, there have been several efforts to use global gene expression patterns to search for candidates markers for early detection, to describe the molecular events in biological pathways, and to discover molecular profiles that predict disease prognosis or response to treatment.
Most lung cancers are classified as either non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) or small cell lung cancer (SCLC) based on the appearance of the tumors cells when viewed under a microscope. Patients with NSCLC are treated differently than from those with small cell tumors. SCLC spreads rapidly and is more likely than the other types to have spread to other parts of the body at the time of diagnosis. This type accounts for about 18% of all lung cancers.
Of the three types of NSCLC, most are squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma; about 10% are classified as large cell carcinoma. Subtyping NSCLC by appearance under the microscope is difficult and it is not reliable in predicting patient outcome. Generally, patients diagnosed with the same stage squamous or adenocarcinomas receive similar treatment. It is hoped that detailed molecular portraits of tumor types can facilitate tumor classification and will be able to predict clinical prognosis and response to therapy.

Ok, so i thought i was doing rather well with my African violets. they all went into bloom and then things started to go off... just today i lost two plants to what appeared to be crown rot (outside row of leaves went limp and started dark, mushy patches around the petioles, inside, smallest leaves turned to mush) i planted what leaves didn't look affected, but they were rather small... anyhow, this brings the number of mysteriously rotted plants up to 5, i think, not counting rooting leaves, suckers and babies... i am getting concerned, to say the least. Linda did mention the ROOT ROT - disease. now i am wondering how i would tackle such a thing and stop it from possibly spreading even further... i have to admit, they all probably have it, since i bottom water them all in the same bucket. (not anymore duh) i am planning on getting a few varieties from the Toronto show this weekend, but they are going in a different room altogether. no chances with those babies. any suggestions apart from "kill them all"? Thanks, Karin |
Follow-Up Postings:
I don't have time to write much. But would you do a search here on this forum for Rot or Rot Leaves. See if some of the answers there might apply to you. When was the last time you repotted them? Did you add extra perlite? How long do you leave the plants in the water when you bottom water? Mary |
Karin Have you taken the root ball out of the pot and inspected it? Do you see any brown mushy roots or white fungus areas? I hope you get it fixed. Your plants are beautiful in the photos |

Hi Karin So sorry to hear that but glad you are going to make it to the T. show. Yes, good to not have the on a common watering system. Years ago, I had problems with a common watering source. It was when I lived in a climate that had lots of winter and not much sun. I now realize that condition was more prone to some type of fungus getting into the water. I lost my AVs one by one. I think the winter conditions require more care and adjustment for AVs to thrive. Ever since then, I don't share the saucers, each one has its own individual water supply. Hopefully, starting fresh with new plants will work. Maybe you can ask the vendors for some suggestions for especially strong plants. best of luck joanne |

Karin, It sounds like Phytophthora. This fungal disease is caused by too much water and/or too heavy soil. It is fatal (sorry) so it is best to toss your affected ones. There are remedies for treating affected plants but I've never known one to work. I would clean up my growing area before you bring home your new ones. Re-pot with soil that is lighter than what you have been using. It is not really a disease that 'spreads'; it will only affect plants when they are growing in the right conditions for it to take hold. I always run my plants a bit dry before I re-water. It is much easier to revive a plant that is a bit too dry than to deal with any sort of rot. I had rots when I first started growing but I haven't had any in many years. (Knock wood!) Linda |
Thanks for the replies! I have them in 50/50 fafard av mix and perlite. Bottom water when the soil seems dry. Leve them in between 1-5 minutes. Maybe I'll have to try the 'chopstick method' to determine whether the soil deeper down is still moist - the pots seemed light enough... I'll also add some vermiculite on next repotting. I'll keep an eye and see. Just seems weird that everything went fine, then one by one they started keeling over. Ah well. Gives me more space on the shelf... |
Karin I watered everything in the same bucket. I did that for a while then had one plant go bad. I held my breath waiting for the rot to spread. I guess I got lucky but I still haven't learned. I still do that sometimes when I am in a hurry or don't want to take time to make all the mix. Not anymore! I am sorry you have to lose plants, but I like your attitude, more room and more plants. |

I have lost about 50 or so outdoor plants because of the harsh winter and right now, we are in the midst of a hard freeze so I know there will be more. So-there's lots of room for new and different plants. It's really the only way to look at it if you don't want to succumb to the vagaries of Mother Nature. Sad, but true. Linda |
after moving to an apartment with no balcony, i have only two outdoor plants left - left in storage on a friends' balcony. i have mixed feelings on whether i am wishing they died, so i don't have to figure out where to put them for the summer, or whether i want them to be alive... i guess the grape could do ok in a south facing window, but keeping the lilac indoors seems like cruelty.... ah well, that's why i started being interested in african violets in the first place. no need for balconies, and plenty of flowers :-) |
Me Too The gophers ate 2 of my 6 ft pines this winter. Something ate the roses (squirrels, dear?) We haven't had any rain since Christmas. We keep the scrap of lawn and the trees alive by constant watering until monsoons start in July. I could easily grow cactus inside but, oh. look, I have plenty of cacti outside. Violets are becoming my flower garden in the small amount of space I can spare inside. I hate to lose one but I always like space for a new one. I am abashed to admit I sometimes have a wicked, mean thought, wishing that one ->over there, would die or something so I can get one I like more. O, the joys of gardening. There is always another beautiful violet! |

I have been struggling with root rot disease since mid-January when my mother opened a window in my plant room. I did not catch it for 3 days. During the days here in Tucson the Temp was in the high 80s but at night it would drop down to the high 40s. Since I keep every thing on wicks and reservoirs it was perfect for the spread of root rot. I lost 4 trays of plants quickly and it just keep spreading. I finally repotted everything, scraping anything brown / mushy from the roots and pulling every thing off the reservoirs . I treated with PHYTON 27 first . I then went on line and picked up THIOMYL, from Southern Ag. on E-bay or Amazion.com. Thiomyl ($15. for 8 oz) a Turf and Ornamental Systemic Fungicide the active ingredient is 50% Thiophanate-methyl It is a Genric Cleary's ($145. lb) ! Black Rot ----Pythium Phytophthora Banrot 40WP Etridiazole 15% Thiophanate is the only treatment for Black Rot and it is $350 for 1 Lb more that i wanted to pay Since using the Thiomyl (Systemic Fungicide) it has all cleared up and it only cost me $15.00. I only lost about 75 of the 1000 plants I had before the 3 cold Jan. nights. I mixed 2 tsp with gal of water and drenched every plant 2 times over 3 week period. I choice not to spray , which would have been easier. Thiomyl is a white powder and it would have covered my plants with a thin white film, that looks like Powder Mildew. |
Thanks for the information In dry Arizona, rots wouldn't seem to be a problem but between the dry air, hot days and cold nights, it is my greatest concern. I have lost more plants to rots than any other cause. Can this product be applied to newly purchased plants as a preventative or is it applied after the fact? |

This is interesting, although I haven't had the problem. I have often wondered if there weren't some remedies for the various rots other than tossing them immediately. I'm glad you found one. I hope you didn't kill your mom. Diana |

No I did not kill my Mom! It was my own fault I should have know the window was open. I noticed the room being a little cooler on the first night , but I did not do any thing about it. As for using Thiomyl Systemic Fungicide ( 50% Thiophanate-methyl) or Cleary's as a preventative measure they are commonly used in commercial green house when transplanting starter plants to prevent damping off. I am going to start adding it to my water when I am transplanting form now on. The best solution for preventing crown / root rot disease is watching your night time temperature especially when using wicks and reservoirs. Water in the reservoirs cools quickly. as long as your night time temp stay above 75 degree you should be ok. Living here in Tucson we don't think about turning on a little heat at night, many don't even have heat in their home and it is just easier to get under a blanket. For the most part we just don't get that cold. At the most we have 2 or 3 weeks where it might drop down to freezing. All it takes is a night or two and you end up spending the next 3-4 month bring your plants back No, I am not a MOM killer, just a AV SERIAL KILLER!!!! |

1,000 AVs! Congratulations! |
I am so glad :D. (I didn't really think you did.) Of course I always suspected that my mom would have sacrificed me and kept the violets. 75 at night is quite warm. I agree that people have to monitor those temps, but I doubt that everyone in colder climes keep it that warm at night. I don't use reservoirs but we do have our thermostat set fairly high any more and it gets chillier than that. At any rate, so glad that so many plants and all the people made it through! Diana |
Ah, I haven't been back in the forum here for a while, but SOMEONE keeps opening the window in that room..... GRRRRRRRR if that is indeed the cause. But it would coincide with when things started to go lopsided.... |

Here's a growing tip: In my growing area no one is allowed to touch anything under pain of dismemberment. I hope this helps. Linda |
My growing area currently doubles as our dining room, so I can't keep everyone out. But we'll be moving again in the next few weeks so maybe I can set things up differently... |

Yup, DH's a property manager - so we move wherever the company needs us... And I'll be happy to see the last of this place - A shoe box is bigger than this... |

Ultrapetrol Reports Financial Results For Third Quarter 2010
Total revenues from the Offshore Supply Business increased by 87% attributable primarily to a full three months of operation in 2010 of the UP Rubi, which started its employment with Petrobras under a long-term time charter in August 2009, and to the operation of the vessels UP Esmeralda and UP Safira. Both the UP Esmeralda and UP Safira are operating under long-term time charter with Petrobras after arriving in Brazil from the North Sea during the first quarter of 2010 at improved rates from those prevailing in the North Sea in the third quarter of 2009. The increase in revenues is also a result of an increase in revenues of our UP Topazio due to her operation in Brazil during the third quarter 2010 as opposed to a lower number of days in the third quarter 2009 when the vessel was repositioned from the North Sea. All of our six existing PSVs are now chartered to Petrobras on long-term employments at attractive rates for periods ranging between three to four years.
Ultrapetrol has continued constructing an additional six new PSVs that will be added to the fleet. The UP Turquoise, which we are currently building in China, is expected to be delivered on December 20, 2010, and has been chartered to Petrobras for a four year period, whilst UP Jasper, also being built in China, is expected to be delivered in the first quarter of 2011. The first of the four vessels under construction in India is now expected to be delivered in the first half of 2011.
The Company has continued to invest heavily in the expansion of its PSV fleet. We believe that the Brazilian market will grow substantially with the support of Petrobras' aggressive capital expenditure plans.
The Ocean segment generated adjusted EBITDA of $2.5 million in the third quarter of 2010, as compared to $13.6 million in the same period of 2009.

Solar Powered Sungevity Ice Pop Truck Gives Out Free Organic Popsicles!
Posted By Bridgette Meinhold On August 1, 2011 @ 6:50 pm In gallery,Green Transportation,News,Solar Power | No Comments
Sungevity's solar powered popsicle truck will be hitting farmer's markets, festivals and other public events in New York, New Jersey, Maryland, Massachusetts, and Delaware this summer as part of their Rolling Rooftop Revolution [3]. The orange and white biodiesel truck is part of the company's campaign to educate the east coast market on the potential for residential solar power. The Oakland-based solar energy services company is hoping to help people cool down with solar power and show through on-the-spot installation quotes on iPads [7] that solar systems are actually within the average person's reach.
Sungevity specializes in the design, financing, installation and maintenance of home solar systems in Arizona, California, Colorado, Delaware, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, and New York. The company is offering free online quotes and zero money down leases to install solar systems. This means that Sungevity owns and operates the solar system, but you provide the roof, lease the system [8] and get all the benefits of using renewable energy at your home.
The Ice Pop Truck was touring around New York City [9] last week, but is on its way to Boston right now before heading on to New Jersey the week after. Austin-based GoodPops [6]is providing the all-natural, organic frozen popsicles in 7 flavors: soy coconut, mango, strawberry, hibiscus mint, cold brew coffee, watermelon agave and banana cinnamon.

Hi there! My name is Bentley. I am 8-10 weeks old. I am a black lab mix. I am very happy, playful and friendly. Please take me home with you!
Other Pets at Second Chance Rescue
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Bentley, a Alger Labrador Retriever puppy was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Labrador Retriever for sale in Alger, or seeking a Labrador Retriever puppy from a breeder in Alger.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Alger already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Alger breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Labrador Retriever breeders who help with Labrador Retriever rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Alger paves the way for another one to be saved.

Some Nights ramps up the ambition and sonic bombast from the debut Fun. album, but also manages to be even more powerful and impressive. Though the album has more of a hip-hop influence than Aim and Ignite, there are still large doses of Queen and ELO coursing through the band's blood, both in the machine-crafted vocal harmonies and the ornate bigness of the sound. The album is overloaded with strings and horns, backing vocals, keyboards, and programmed drums surrounding Nate Ruess' lead vocals like a clamoring crowd, but never drowning out his innately sincere voice and painfully honest lyrics. On songs like the lead single "We Are Young" or the rollicking "All Alone," he provides a very human core that grounds things even as the music builds to ornate crescendos. It's an impressive achievement and Fun. deserves every bit of acclaim that comes its way because of it. ~ Tim Sendra

The workarounds included turning off iMessage completely (ugliest solution) to using some trick like adding the number under a dummy contact with a name like 'Blocked' or something identifiable. But iOS 7 lets you block someone from sending you an iMessage (or even making a call or sending a text). The feature extends to iOS 8 too. Here's how to block someone.
Blocking someone on your iPhone effectively blocks them from even being able to call you or text you (regular SMS/MMS). For our purposes, we assume that this is the use-case.
How to block someone from sending you iMessages on iPhone:
- Open the Settings app
- Scroll down and tap on Messages
- Now, scroll down again and tap on Blocked
- To add a person to this list, tap on Add New..
- Choose the contact and tap on Done
You'll notice that this contact gets added to your Blocked list. This contact won't be able to call you, text you or send an iMessage to you. Even FaceTime will be blocked for this person.
What if you want to remove the contact itself and block the number? That's not possible (at least, not yet) unless you call up your carrier and have them block a number. You could also login to your account on your carrier's portal and add the number to the blacklist. Changes would take effect quite late.
There's also another option to stop getting notifications when someone sends you an iMessage without missing other message notifications. This process involves two steps:
- Remove the contact from your phone/address book
- Go to Settings → Notifications → Messages → scroll down and select Show Alerts from My Contacts.
This way, you won't get notifications for iMessages sent from unknown numbers (or numbers that are not in your contacts). But it won't block.
Want to block someone from calling you? Check out this tutorial which is almost the same as above.

Despite the availability of evidence-based guidelines for the management of pediatric and adult asthma, there remains a significant gap between accepted best practices for asthma care and actual care delivered to asthma patients. The purpose of this systematic review was to evaluate the evidence that quality improvement (QI) strategies can improve the processes and outcomes of outpatient care for children and adults with asthma.

09-Oct-2014 | 03 36A WELLINGTON STREET | Great apartment and service. | |
03-Oct-2013 | 01 36A WELLINGTON STREET | Apartment was clean, comfortable enough and in a perfect location meeting my needs of easy walk to office, grocery and restos. Special mention to Jackie Moss (Operations Mgr) who was very efficient and responsive to all my queries, clarifications and needs. Great job, Jackie! I look forward to my next stay at Clarendon! :) A few minor suggestions:
1) Windows are a bit tight/stuck and difficult to open/close possibly bec they are seldom opened. Suggest these be opened at least 1x a month to clean out the dust around the frame. 2) Radio reception weak, so any way this can be improved would help. 3) Any way you could have cable TV? A smaller flat screen TV would also help in the bedroom! |
