THE DEVIL'S WEDDING NIGHT (1973): Vampires, Bald and Naked
While it does not quite reach the same exhilirating level as LADY FRANKENSTEIN, Luigi Batzella's THE DEVIL'S WEDDING NIGHT stands as a rousing vehicle for Rosalba Neri. Having previously played the daughter of Frankenstein (who continues her dead father's experiments for revenge and carnal pleasure), Neri takes on the role of a female vampire in the possession of a fabled ring once held by Count Dracula, as well as other nefarious characters. Said to grant its bearer great power, the Countess uses the ring to lure virgins to her castle (a reasonable use for a vampire who likes to indulge in sapphic pleasures). In the meantime, the Countess plays host to Mark Damon, acting in a double role as a pair of twin brothers, one of whom has tracked down the ring to castle. Seducing Damon, the Countess targets him as the new host to the spirit of Dracula himself.
A pastiche of tropes and scenarios from (frankly) better films (BLACK SUNDAY comes to mind), THE DEVIL'S WEDDING NIGHT tends to muddle a bit, but Batzella's occasionally arresting imagery, as well as Neri's sexy but commanding premise, make the film worth a look. While he's certainly not cut from the same cloth as Mario Bava, Batzella manages to create an eerily erotic gothic atmosphere, highlighted by a fog-bound scene of undead women gathering for a blood orgy, and--especially--scenes of Rosalba Neri bathed in blood and rising naked from her crypt.
Even with such scenes, the movie sometimes falls flat and slows to a crawl. Playing two parts, Damon does not distinguish himself very well, even during a psychedelic scene in which he leers maniacally upon Neri as she makes love with another female vampire. Neri's bald henchman comes across as unintentionally comic, though the inevitable plot twists involving Damon playing twins turn out to be fun, if predictable.
According to imdb.com, Joe D'Amato worked as cinematographer on this film, and ultimately, we can probably credit him (along with Neri) for most of the film's merits. Despite the scratchy print, I still enjoyed the overall look of the film, which comes across as something of a live-action

PARISH DAMNED, by Lee Thomas: Swimming Vampires!
South Florida generally doesn't come to mind when the subject of gothic horror comes up--never mind the oddly placed castle in which Dracula takes residence in order to re-brain the Frankenstein monster in ABBOTT AND COSTELLO MEET FRANKENSTEIN, a movie I would take to the proverbial desert island. Maybe it's all that sun that most people associate with that tropical climate. However, residents here recognize a general undercurrent of weirdness to this state, as evident in some of its lore, like the bizarre
Count Von Cosel
of Key West, who planned on resurrecting his dead love before stealing her body for . . . let's just say nefarious and kinky practices.
The Keys likewise serve as the setting for PARISH DAMNED, a novella that plays like a version of THE OLD MAN AND THE SEA, only with vampires. Written in the first person, it concerns a lonely boat captain who lives on Coral Point, a small tourist island plagued by a recurring "sickness" that comes about whenever the mysterious Graham docks his boat. While much of the island lives in denial of the reality behind the sickness, the narrator knows what really plagues them, setting the stage for gory encounters that ultimately culminate in a grisly climax at sea. Only at the end do we learn that the narrator has a personal, er, stake in the vampires that prey upon the inhabitants of the community.
The general wisdom is that vampire stories have been played out long ago, but I find that I still enjoy it when a good writer puts the old gothic tropes into play again. The Keys offer an unusual setting, and while the novella moves a bit too slowly at first, I loved the climax, where we see the "school" of vampires get to work on a boat in the open water. Overall, good bloody fun, and just the thing I needed to ride out Tropical Storm Fay. I'll be dreaming of dripping wet fanged spectres! Visit Lee Thomas' web page

Battenin' Down the Hatches
It may be a few days before I have a chance to post some reports from the tomb. Tropical Storm and possibly nascent Hurricane Fay has its sights set on us. What will become of us? Hopefully nothing like what Joe McKinney describes in DEAD CITY, which features a zombie plague arising after a series of hurricanes strike Texas. Maybe some howling wind outside will set the right mood for some reading. Hopefully, I won't be running for my life . . . from zombies.

THE LOST (2005), and Why Jack Ketchum Scares Me
Jack Ketchum scares me, and he should scare you. Praised by Stephen King when he accepted his National Book Foundation Award, Ketchum has written some of the most disturbing fiction in recent memory, including OFF SEASON, RIGHT TO LIFE, THE GIRL NEXT DOOR, and THE LOST. The latter draws inspiration from the real life serial killer, Charles Schmid, the "Pied Piper of Tucson," who also served as the basis for Joyce Carol Oates' short story, "Where Are You Going, Where Have You Been." In fact, Ketchum shares with Oates a general fascination with "human monsters," as evidenced by his most famous novel, THE GIRL NEXT DOOR, a text based upon the heart-breaking Sylvia Marie Likens murder. But that's not what scares me about Jack Ketchum. What scares me about his work is how effectively he calls for us to reflect on our own "gaze," the way he makes us ask ourselves, "Should I really be reading this, much less enjoying it?" Look at the screenshot above, taken from the masterful film version of THE LOST (directed by Chris Siverston.) That scene occurs during a crucial moment of the story, when this bound character cannot scream, cannot cry, but only look upon the grisly work of Ray Pye with horrified fascination. That's a visual story of our relationship to Ketchum's work.
Like the "Pied Piper of Tucson," Ketchum's Ray Pye wears make-up, stuffs his shoes with crushed beer cans so that he can appear taller, and surrounds himself with teenagers who look in awe upon his swagger and bravado. Like the book, the film begins Pye stumbling on two girls (one played by Erin Brown), camping in the woods. Stalking them later that evening, he murders them with his shot-gun, his only motivation stemming from his apparent suspicion that they are lesbians. As Pye, Mark Senter captures the chaos of a mind shifting randomly from childlike insecurity to violent psychosis. In a role that could easily become a cartoon, his performance is nothing short of brilliant, just as Chris Siverston more than ably handles the source material. Siverston, who also directed the underrated American
, I KNOW WHO KILLED ME, achieves a gritty 1970s-grindhouse style of horror film-making without resorting to the gimmicks that many of his peers have used unsuccessfully.
Yes, Jack Ketchum scares me, and he reminds me of another reason why in the commentary he recorded for the DVD (along with fellow writer Monica O'Rourke). This narrative, as well as his many others, serve to remind us that we're not safe, that every day we live counts as another miracle. Just try watching the end of this film without gratefully drawing your next breath. As Hollywood continues to cannibalize itself with remakes and more remakes, it's unfortunate that most of us won't have the opportunity to see this on the big screen.
One shouldn't miss the message that the filmmakers included at the end of the credits--to read the book if you liked the movie, and to read the book if you didn't like the movie. Hopefully, Siverston's film helps Ketchum's work find the wider audience that it deserves.

PHENOMENA: Murderin' Monkeys, Argento-style
As the above image suggests, Dario Argento's 1987 film, PHENOMENA, includes an overt homage to Poe in the form of a razor-wielding ape--never mind that Argento uses a chimpanzee here, while Poe's simian culprit in "The Murders in the Rue Morgue" is an orangutan. With his stories of madmen and murderers, Poe has a natural place in the genealogy of the Italian
, and Dario Argento himself has expressed a particular affinity for his work, ultimately culminating in his collaboration with George Romero, TWO EVIL EYES. What Poe would make of PHENOMENA, however, is anyone's guess. It stands somewhat as a black sheep amongst Argento's other mid-late 1980s film, including OPERA and the masterful TENEBRE, garnering its share of negative reviews, including one from Alan Jones, whose original STARBURST review called it "the worst fantasy slasher Dario Argento has ever been involved in" (my source for this quote is Jones' PROFONDO ARGENTO).
It seems that the passage of time has improved PHENOMENA's reputation somewhat, despite the fact that Argento seems intent on going in several different directions at once. Jennifer Connelly plays Jennifer, the daughter of a media celebrity sent to boarding school in the "Swiss Transylvania," and in a twist taken right out of SUSPIRIA, she discovers that a murderer is on the loose. In the meantime, Donald Pleasance plays John MacGregor, a Scottish entomologist that the police have called upon to help them solve the murders--maggots and larvae can provide clues about the time of death, after all. Jennifer, we learn, has the ability to communicate with insects, and McGregor eventually encourages her to use this ability to find the killer's lair.
As nutty as PHENOMENA sounds, Argento has described this film as one of his most personal, and the plot allows him to play with a number of fruitful themes and ideas, including the archetypal "terrible mother" that has shown up in some of his other films. Burdened by the absence of parents, Jennifer ultimately finds that the truth behind the horrible murders relate to her need for nurturing in some horrible ways. Up to this point, the film portrays characters seeking some kind of surrogate parent: Jennifer's room-mate even gives her baby food when she asks for something to eat, and the opening sequence--one of Argento's best ever--shows a girl calling after the bus that left her behind after a school trip, leading to her eventual murder by decapitation. Significantly, Fiore Argento plays the abandoned school girl. As his later films with his other daughter, Asia, demonstrate, the director tends to play our personal issues on the screen in some disturbing ways.
And in all this we have a monkey! The ape belongs to John MacGregor, who in his own way, acts as its surrogate parent, until the ape gets a chance to repay the favor. If I didn't already love PHENOMENA for the way it fearlessly throws all its bizarre plot elements into one big gumbo, I'd probably love it just for putting a razor in that ape's hand.

Mr. Poe's Bloody Ape
My personal odyssey with murdering monkeys continues with a re-reading of Edgar Allan Poe's "The Murders in the Rue Morgue," a story featuring Pierre Dupin, the template for future literary detectives, most notably Sherlock Holmes. The opening of the story might try your patience, as Poe's narrator expounds endlessly on the nature of "the analytical" and its relationship to the imagination. While Poe ultimately wants the reader to apply his or her own skills of deduction to the events he puts forward (the reader is the true detective, as is the case in any good mystery) the story eventually gets down and dirty with the gruesome murder of a mother and daughter living in Paris. Both corpses bear horrible marks, with the daughter's body stuffed in a chimney, and the mother's body found on the street below, her head decapitated by a razor.
As with many Poe stories, the rational and the irrational exist in a tenuous relationship with each other, and while Poe seems to suggest that the rational wins out--Dupin figures out that (quite obviously) an escaped ape with shaving razor committed the crime--the gratuitous, sensational elements ultimately maintain our interest. Who'd want to read the story if a homicidal ape hadn't decapitated the poor mother?
Like many Poe stories, "The Murders in the Rue Morgue" has been adapted into film more than once, but my favorite is one of the earliest: the 1932 Universal film directed by Robert Florey, starring Bela Lugosi, fresh off his portrayal of Dracula. Universal had originally pegged both Florey and Lugosi to work on their follow-up film to DRACULA, an adaptation of FRANKENSTEIN, but those jobs eventually fell to James Whale and Boris Karloff. Instead, Florey and Lugosi found themselves collaborating on MURDERS IN THE RUE MORGUE, which, as Tom Weaver, Michael Brunas, and John Brunas have pointed out in UNIVERSAL HORRORS, has perhaps been unfairly received by horror fans. Taking its share of liberties with the story, the film portrays Dupin as a love-sick medical student who stumbles on the sideshow exhibition of Dr. Mirakle, who plans to cross the blood of an ape with a young human female. Mirakle's ape, Erik, takes a liking to Dupin's girlfriend, and Dr. Mirakle becomes all too willing to find a way for them to mate. It's all as icky as it sounds, in a 1930s pre-code Hollywood way, but I like to think that Poe would have approved of this plot twist, even if they turned Dupin into a bit of a whiner who lacks the near-telepathic skills of Poe's Dupin.
The film opens in a sleazy sideshow (where dancing girls might "bite" for a little extra price) and eventually brings us to Dr. Mirakle's lair, where he ties his victims onto a slanted cross so that he can test their mating potential with Erik. The authors of UNIVERSAL HORRORS note that the film's calls to mind German Expressionism with its visuals and that its "European feel clashes with the English-language dialogue and American accents, only adding to an off-putting sense of strangeness and artificiality." Indeed, Universal's MURDERS IN THE RUE MORGUE feels like it could easily morph into an English language dubbed version of a Jess Franco film, and for that reason, I love it dearly.

Let it be known: if you deem yourself a scientist and still insist that your assistants call you "master," then your work might not really serve the best intentions. If nothing else, NIGHT OF THE BLOODY APES, directed by Rene Cardona, reminds us to question doctors who perform illicit ape-human heart transplants to save their own children from debilitating diseases, especially when said children transform into blood-thirsty monsters determined to rape, scalp, and decapitate anyone who crosses their paths. Dr. Krallman performs this kind of surgery with these results, and indeed, he insists that his assistant call him "master."
Tenebrous Kate
, whose scandalous reflections demand your every day attention, promised us a "rapey half-mans, half-monkeys" a few days back, and for SURE, I thought, she meant that she'd discuss NIGHT OF THE BLOODY APES. Thanks to my flimsy background in Naziploitation horror films, I failed to realize she meant to school us on SS HELL CAMP. I could have just cried in my tequila, but I realized that all this just meant that it was up to me to give NIGHT OF THE BLOODY APES its due.
In 1969, Cardona not only brought us NIGHT THE BLOODY APES, but also SANTO IN THE TREASURE OF DRACULA, which does a decent job of adapting parts of Bram Stoker's novel into the framework of the "lucha libra" wrestling film that has proved so popular in Mexico for so long. Likewise, NIGHT OF THE BLOODY APES borrows tropes from this genre, incorporating a sub-plot involving a detective and his wrestler girl-friend, who conveniently makes a point of being in the shower every time her boyfriend calls on her. As a whole, NIGHT OF THE BLOODY APES contains plenty of sleazy exploitation elements and no doubt kept its targeted drive-in crowd more than happy. While the detective's girl-friend struggles with the fact that her stunning wrestling moves put her opponent in a coma, Dr. Krallman decides to transplant the heart of an ape into his son, hoping to cure his cancer. Instead, the transplant results in his transformation into a horrible ape-human, who subsequently goes on a rampage. Hoping to cure his son, the doctor performs another transplant, using the heart of the coma victim, but of course, this goes south as well, and the monster goes on to scalp, rape, and decapitate anyone who gets in his way, including the poor assistant who calls his boss "master."
I can't in good conscience call this a "good" film, but I always have loads of fun with it. BCI recently released it as part of their SOUTH OF THE BORDER Vol 2 DVD Collection. Get it, and remember to always call me "master."

Agilent Technologies Introduces Industry's First 100G Ethernet Compliance Test Applications
Printer-friendly versionPDF version
SANTA CLARA, Calif., July 8, 2014
Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) today introduced the industry's first compliance test applications for 100 Gigabit Ethernet networking systems. The Agilent N8830A 100GBASE-CR4, N8829A 100GBASE-KR4 and N8828A 40GBASE-CR4/100GBASE-CR10 test applications help network-design engineers accelerate turn-on and debugging of 100G Ethernet networking systems. The new applications automate the execution of physical-layer tests on Agilent Infiniium 90000 X-Series and 90000 Q-Series oscilloscopes and the new Z-Series oscilloscopes with up to 63-GHz bandwidth.
100G Ethernet is leading the way to wider bandwidths across network backbones and data center networking infrastructure. This technology has increased the need for more comprehensive compliance testing.
Agilent's 100G Ethernet compliance applications provide an automated test script that allows quick and reliable testing of 100G Ethernet transmitter signals. Engineers can automate the application to run over extended periods of time and as well as add incremental user-defined tests.
Additional information about Agilent's 100G Ethernet compliance applications is available online at www.agilent.com/find/100G-CR4, www.agilent.com/find/100G-KR4 and www.agilent.com/find/100G-CR10.
U.S. Pricing and Availability
The N8830A 100GBASE-CR4 Ethernet compliance application and N8829A 100GBASE-KR4 Ethernet compliance application are priced at $8,280 each.
The N8828A 40GBASE-CR4 /100GBASE-CR10 Ethernet compliance application is priced at $6,900.
The N8830A 100GBASE-CR4 and N8829A 100GBASE-KR4 Ethernet compliance applications are compatible with all currently shipping Infiniium real-time oscilloscopes that have 63-GHz bandwidth.
The N8828A 40GBASE-CR4/100GBASE-CR10 Ethernet compliance application is compatible with all currently shipping Infiniium real-time oscilloscopes that have at least 25-GHz bandwidth.
Agilent's complete oscilloscope portfolio includes instruments with a variety of form factors with bandwidths from 20 MHz to 90 GHz.
About Agilent Technologies
Agilent Technologies Inc. (NYSE: A) is the world's premier measurement company and a technology leader in chemical analysis, life sciences, diagnostics, electronics and communications. The company's 20,600 employees serve customers in more than 100 countries. Agilent had revenues of $6.8 billion in fiscal 2013. Information about Agilent is available at www.agilent.com.
On Sept. 19, 2013, Agilent announced plans to separate into two publicly traded companies through a tax-free spinoff of its electronic measurement business. The new company is named Keysight Technologies, Inc. The separation is expected to be completed in early November 2014.News Source : Agilent Technologies Introduces Industry's First 100G Ethernet Compliance Test Applications

I just wanted to let you know that the private charter van service was outstanding. Thanks so much to you and your staff for arranging for the beverages on board and the driver was great. We will be visiting Cozumel again will always be utilizing yours and Uniper's assistance.
R. Lee Family ~ Colorado
I just wanted to let you know we really enjoyed our experience with the turtle salvation program this week. It was an amazing evening I will never forget. I will be sure to share the info with my local dive shops and SCUBA club when I return. I know that many others would love to participate and support the turtles. Thanks again and if you could pass along our appreciation to the biologists and other volunteers, we know it is all of your dedication that helps the turtles.
J & D Lamb ~ Tucson, AZ
We just got back from Cozumel and the best thing we did was the Sea Turtle Release with FP&M. They were very educational and not just about the turtles. We were so excited to be able to hold the babies and set them free. Watching them bob their heads out of the water to breathe was quite a sight! Digging for them was enchanting, like finding buried treasure! Thanks to COZUMELINSIDER for helping us make this happen!
Karen E. ~ Arroyo Grande, CA USA
Sherrie is a true star when it comes to being hostess. Always friendly, helpful and there to answers our questions she knows where to enjoy local cuisine, you'll get the best value for money and great food.
H. Hawkins ~ Wilmington, DE
We cannot begin to express our thanks to Sherri and the staff at IslaMar Villas for our wonderful 11-night stay. This was our third time staying at IslaMar Villas and for us it's the only place to stay in Cozumel. It has truly become our home away from home. We love the apartments, the courtyard and pool, and the warm and friendly neighborhood.
We also used "COZUMELINSIDER" to book our car rental with Avis. It went very smoothly and you guys also helped us trade in our little Chevy Pop for something a little bigger.
A big THANK YOU to Sherri for introducing us to a wonderful private driver on the mainland and for arranging our excursion to Playa del Carmen, Tulum, and Akumal. We were so happy that we decided to finally venture off the island and go to the mainland to see the ruins. The driver Sherri arranged for us was extremely friendly and went above and beyond to make sure we saw things we wouldn't have even known about had we taken the car ferry and driven on our own. To anyone looking for a private tour of places on the mainland, we highly recommend asking Sherri to arrange it for you. It was well worth it!
Thank you again, Sherri! Your kindness and warm hospitality makes us choose IslaMar Villas and your services over and over again.

This holiday was pure relaxation! We had a double room with a partial view of the sea, but have a room with direct view in the 4. the top floor to get. The room was big, clean and well furnished. Also the bath was roomy, the bathtub was on the floor corrugated, so that the showers could slip. Safe, and wi-fi free of charge. Wi-fi in the entire building and even on some sections on the beach. The whole hotel was very clean, food was excellent with plenty of choice. Service perfect. All-inclusive was definitely worth it, since the drink ... prices were for half board but are quite high. The guests were all nations represented and no nationality was misbehaving. Average age was in the 'medium-sized' years, but there were also a few young couples and young families with children there. For party goers the hotel is not suitable, but for tourists, the peace want to relax. The beach was, as described everywhere, in the lower area to and in the water very rocky, in the upper area fine. This is the 2 time, that we a Grecotel booked and we shall further Greece-travel again choose one. Really recommendable. read hotel review

We as a family to 3 in this hotel and were 2 weeks there. The hotel is lovely and the location also. The beach was in the first row nature (gravel, in the water, bathing shoes were really recommended), in 2. row with sand top. The pools are very clean. The staff left nearly no desires open and is very friendly and accommodating. Wire had all inclusive and it was great. The breakfast was a pure eye pasture the angebeot and dinner also. Who there nothing finds is debt. The meal in the à-la-carte restaurant was great and the staff. ... A special thank you to the guest relation manager of a, whatever issues always, help. And a special thanks to the manager of the à la carte restaurants. In sum, it was a wonderful and relaxing holiday. We were already 2. time and we will definitely come back. read hotel review

Nice hotel, we recommend it. The food and service were very good. The staff speaks perfect german and is very friendly and accommodating. The complex is really nice and well maintained. The rooms are but worn and didn't match a 5 star standard. (shower curtain in the bathtub, sometimes no water, stains on the floor/bed, sometimes only 1 towel for 2). Had to after the first night our room change, as it with a connecting door and loud neighbors no sleep was. But immediately on the proposal of the hotel a new room received. There were a lot of guests ... from the german-speaking countries (from England, Holland and the eastern area). The beach is in the first row nature (gravel, in the water, bathing shoes were really recommended), in 2. row with sand. Beach chairs were despite ausverkauften hotel sufficiently available. Food and drink were very good. (sodas were original)-but had to many drinks and food (despite all inclusive) or be paid separately (but were written down). Overall the hotel we can (with the location close to Kos (city) and good bus connection) recommend. The appearance (area, beach, etc.) And the staff make the worn (disappointing) room again good. read hotel review

As star hotel ok. Certainly not a 5 star not even category. Staff really made an effort, but for the most part. Insufficiently trained. Food: quantity instead of quality and rather carelessly displayed. Dishes often too long cooked and dry. Much hustle with the food, only 2 restaurants. The breakfast juices from the machine-a no-go for a 5-star resort. Fitness studio: bad opening hours, in the morning only from 9 o'clock, but in the evening until 20 o'clock. Devices partially. Broken or parts are missing. Showers in the bathtub and only in sitting is possible, as shower hose too short. ... Room in general somewhat past its best, mattresses hard, furniture stained. Wi-fi only in the lobby and also rather slow connection. Signal from the neighbor hotel takes in all areas much more purely. Unfortunately you needed a password. All-inclusive is only during the day for certain items (and drinks). Mini-bar is not replenished. Guests 80% russians. Who prices like a 5 star hotel requires, should the relevant service and therefore around-this does not. read hotel review

I have my private holiday on the complex spent but it is to say, that i am a travel agent and deshalbn first right on one or another special 8 as some other. I went to the last evaluation with the title 'disappointment' read and me, this was really annoying. Sometimes i can take the complaints not understand. Would you in advance good advice or even informed what you locally finds, would then also does not have a 'nasty' beach complain, as some call it that. If i for this hotel judgements is clear, that it is not a dream ... beach with palm trees It is also clear that you need bathing shoes, that is everywhere! You should just read. It is not that it barely german-speaking staff. This hotel has for german, as well as for russian guests staff employed so that actually no one could complain about. read hotel review

hall's almonds when to harvest? staking?
I have three hall's almonds which all have fruit now. they have really grown a lot and are very tall 15 ft and spindly. do I need to somehow stake them? are they likely to break in a big winter storm?
also when do I harvest the fruit? can I eat the outer fruit? do I need to cure them?
The info I have states to harvest when the outer hull splits to reveal the pit. Remove the outer leathery hull and dry them spread out, in the sun for a few days (away from the critters). When ready, they should rattle in their shells. The tree should fill out in subseqent years after it's initial growth stage.
Cheers, Barrie.
I'm not getting a lot of nuts yet, second year, but hope they will produce more as they get bigger. I like that the squirrels don't seem to know they are edible so I finally get to harvest some nuts. The flavor is much more intense than store normal almonds too.
This cultivar belongs to Prunus x persicoides, the hybrid between almond and peach. Intermediate characters can be seen in leaves and flowers. Peach heritage supposed to make kernels bitter, inedible raw, yet I have eaten them right out of the shell, from local trees more than once. Sizable specimen (now dead) I spotted from the freeway in Marysville was being attended by gray squirrels while I stood there looking at it. They were coming across a wide roadway to get at the nuts, in a not very well treed neighborhood.
Shouldn't need staking unless rootbound, toppling over. Need for fungicidal sprays main thing that is likely to "crop" up at some point.
I bought a Hall's Hardy Almond tree a few years ago. This is the first year it has borne fruit. I haven't gotten into the "nut" yet, but the fruit tastes just like a peach, a good peach at that. I learned here that it's a peach/almond cross. What is the experience of folks here - do the fruits typically look and taste like a peach?
Maybe mine is more peach than nut. From what I'm reading here, that might be okay.
Maybe you got sold a peach tree by mistake, there should be no edible flesh on the nuts - cultivar sold in the past as a pure almond tree even though it is actually a hybrid, the most obvious distinctions being the (partial) peach tree features visible in the leaves and flowers. Otherwise, I've wondered if the inconsistency between descriptions (bitter) and what I've encountered (sweet and edible raw) might be due to seedlings being sold instead of a uniform grafted clone. Theoretically a full range of such seedlings could include one more like a peach tree, unless there is some specific genetic reason for this not to happen.
Hemnancy, the squirrels will most likely find it. I've had one for several years and they discovered it 2 or 3 years ago, but I don't think they get them all like they do the hazelnuts.
I don't care much for the nuts myself. They taste like almond extract smells, if that makes sense. I have another almond tree whose name escapes me, but it hasn't set fruit yet, even though I've had it for at least 5 years.I think it blooms too early.

Situation - We have a .net mvc solution with WCF layer. the solution has about 20 odd projects that get compiled into DLL. the site is running on SQL server 2008. we maintain the SQL scripts in the solution folder as versions. So we have SQL scripts eg. version 18.104.22.168 to lets say latest which is 188.8.131.52.
the solution is source controlled in TFS, we also use TFS to manage the work items, bugs etc etc. SQL script files are also in TFS
Question - the question is that do we need version numbers on the assemblied i.e. dlls aswell. Our DLLS are not exposed in any way or from to the outside world they are just in the runtime of the mvc app. we do not expose the WCF to outside clients,again its just used by the mvc app.
the deploy process is simplly the latest code against the latest db, so when we deploy we check what version the db is in and run a tool to upgrade it to the latest version that is in the db project in the solution.
One of our senior architects is saying that we should maintain the version numbers in the assemblies aswell. I am saying that we dont need any version numbers in the code. beacuse TFS manages that. when we release we just deploy the latest code with the latest assemblies/ deploy package.
I have not come accross the assembly versions unless them assemblies where released to the outside world (if you know what i mean)
please can you suggest... Also note we dont do feature development its just version numbers so that we know what version a particular DB is at.

With the fifth and final season of NBCŌĆÖs television series, 'Chuck', set to premiere this month, fans of the show are anxiously awaiting its return. When we last left the gang, Chuck (Zachary Levi) had to lead a team to fight against a deadly plot by Vivian Volkoff (Lauren Cohan) to save his bride, Sarah (Yvonne Strahovski) ŌĆö all the while planning the beginning stages of his freelance spy agency.

Canadian actor, Vik Sahay, who has been a series regular since the second season, plays Lester Patel, a ŌĆ£Nerd HerdŌĆØ member and vocalist of Buy MoreŌĆÖs resident rock band, Jeffster.┬Ā When asked about his relationships for the upcoming season, he reveals that he wants his character to find the right girl, and ŌĆ£to be made a better man by a big, bad love.ŌĆØ Of course, itŌĆÖll take more than your average woman to capture LesterŌĆÖs heart.┬Ā ŌĆ£She must be beautiful, smart, daring, and powerful,ŌĆØ explains Sahay.┬Ā ŌĆ£I donŌĆÖt think heŌĆÖd settle for anyone who didnŌĆÖt scare him a little.ŌĆØ
Before diving into his personal perspective on romance, Sahay gives us a peek into the inner thoughts of his character.┬Ā Here are a few lessons in love according to Lester:
1. DonŌĆÖt ask her to pick you up. If you canŌĆÖt get your hands on a car, spring for a cab.
2. No arm wrestling.
3. DonŌĆÖt take calls from your mother at the table.
4. Beer is not a good kissing drink. Vodka is.
5. Smile. No frowning, grimacing, or raging.
6.Laugh at her jokes.
7. Know her name. Remember it throughout the night. Sprinkle it in conversation liberally, but not aggressively.
8. DonŌĆÖt expect a woman to pay for your dinner.
9. If you intend to bring her back to your place, pack up any cosmetics, including hair products, moisturizers, and fake eyelashes.┬Ā A woman does not want to know you have more beauty products than her.
10. Music is great for setting the moodŌĆ"on a stereo.┬Ā Save the serenades for anniversaries down the road, if you can get there.
Related: What Your Favorite Summer Song Says About Your Relationship
For Sahay, there is one piece of romantic advice that rises above the rest: be funny.┬Ā ŌĆ£There are well-sculpted hunks of male beef in gyms all over the planet.┬Ā You look good, so then what?ŌĆØ he says.┬Ā ŌĆ£Laughter is sexy and emotional.┬Ā It gets you in your body and opens your heart.┬Ā I canŌĆÖt think of anything more conducive to falling in love.ŌĆØ
Fortunately, SahayŌĆÖs relationship history has yet to mirror LesterŌĆÖs romantic troubles ŌĆö although he adds, ŌĆ£I have been told that my energy can be exhausting, as IŌĆÖm sure his would be.ŌĆØ
Even so, dating in Hollywood comes with its own unique challenges.┬Ā According to Sahay, the most challenging part is ŌĆ£the fact that everyone is constantly ŌĆśonŌĆÖ in this town ŌĆö constantly working, constantly career-building, etc.ŌĆØ┬Ā He expands, ŌĆ£Plus, with distances across the city (and insane working hours), itŌĆÖs a major commitment to hook up for a drink, making it tough to be casual about it.ŌĆØ
ThatŌĆÖs not to say that it doesnŌĆÖt have its benefits too.┬Ā The biggest perk?┬Ā Sahay says, ŌĆ£Many romantic restaurants have patios year-round.┬Ā Coming from Toronto, thatŌĆÖs a major plus.ŌĆØ
And if humor and romantic restaurants fail to impress a date, Sahay has one more trick up his sleeve: dancing. ┬ĀWhen asked if he's ever used his dancing skills to win over a woman, he responds, ŌĆ£Oh yes. Many a move has been busted on dates.ŌĆØ
Tune into the season premiere of Chuck on NBC on Friday, October 28 at 8/7 c.

i patiently waited for my sister in law to join us for a day of painting with the kids at Color Me Mine during Christmas break. She sent her son in and followed a little after. I figured just another day in the life of a nursing mom but then she dropped the most delightful bomb ever.
"do you listen to serial?" she said. "what?" was my basic response. then she went on to tell me about the podcast, Serial from The American Life and how its gripping nature will literally prevent you from getting out of your car until the episode is finished. I downloaded the podcast the next week and found myself, sitting in the car, outside of Target, listening and not moving.
I texted her everyday as I devoured the podcast. things like.
"who did it?"
"do you think he is a sociopath?"
"i am not sure why i am obsessed but i think it is the narrator's voice."
then sadly it ended. just like when finishing Harry Potter or The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo series, i mourned Serial. I wanted to reach for it and listen again. i kept checking my phone to see if maybe just maybe i missed an episode and could listen again. I thought about the characters, who are in fact not characters but real live people, dealing with a real live murder investigation and trial. I did that really annoying thing where you try to talk to people about it that don't listen and explain it's brilliance.
This week i found a new list for those of us addicted to Serial to listen to until Serial comes back on. Check it out over here on the Coveteur. Excuse me now while i sit in my car.
This Friday, I just can't stop listening to these podcasts.

For the second time this year, Third Point's Daniel Loeb has used his activist hedge fund pulpit to win concession from portfolio company Nabi Biopharmaceuticals.
The Boca Raton, Fla.-based Nabi has appointed two Third Point nominees, hedge fund manager Jason Aryeh and NeuroStat Pharmaceuticals CEO Tim Lynch, to its board of directors. The two will also sit on a newly-constituted five-member strategic action committee, which is charged with evaluating strategic options and making recommendations to the board and management.
Nabi will also pay up to $250,000 to New York-based Third Point for its trouble, to cover expenses. Third Point, for its part, will not go ahead with its proxy solicitation, which sought to boot Nabi CEO Thomas McLain and four others from the company's board.
"Through this agreement, Nabi Biopharmaceuticals and Third Point will avoid a costly and disruptive consent solicitation at a time when the company is exploring a full range of strategic alternatives to enhance shareholder value," McLain said of the deal.
Loeb was magnanimous in victory. "We are pleased to be able to work constructively with Nabi Pharmaceuticals with the shared goal of enhancing the value of the company," he said. "We believe that the addition of Jason and Tim to the board and the establishment of the SAC will help achieve our objective of maximizing value for all Nabi shareholders."
Loeb filed the proxy statement seeking McLain's head after Nabi refused to open its books to Third Point. Third Point owns about 9.5% of Nabi stock.
In April, Loeb accused McLain of being too close with investment bankers at the company's financial advisor, Lehman Brothers. Lehman was quickly replaced by Banc of America Securities, much to Loeb's satisfaction.
