The lineup for this year's Tibet House US benefit concert keeps getting bigger. Happening March 5th at Carnegie Hall, the NYC show now also includes Blondie's Debbie Harry. She joins the previously announced lineup of Patti Smith and Her Band with Jesse Smith, The Flaming Lips, Laurie Anderson, Sturgill Simpson, Tibetan musician Tenzin Choegyal, Ashley Macisaac, and the night's artistic director Philip Glass. Tickets are still available, and we're giving away a pair.
"Chairs for the evening are Chuck Close, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Peter Sarsgaard, Arden Wohl and Uma Thurman. Proceeds support the work of the Tibet House US, a non-profit educational institution and cultural embassy founded at the request of His Holiness the Dalai Lama to ensure the survival of the unique Tibetan civilization."
It will be Debbie's only performance before she plays a sold out 10-show run at NYC's Café Carlyle (March 24-April 4).
Meanwhile, fellow CBGB legend and singer of the NY Dolls David Johansen will be taking on his Buster Poindexter persona for his own two week residency at Café Carlyle which begins tonight (February 10-21). Tickets for most nights are available at Ticketweb.
Patti Smith, who also plays the Tibet House benefit (again), was in LA last week for two big shows at the Ace Hotel Theatre, and for one intimate one at the Roxy.
LA Weekly reports:
There was the all-star turnout, for starters: Morrissey, Johnny Depp, Tim Robbins, Thurston Moore, Susanna Hoffs, Rosanna Arquette, Rodney Bingenheimer, Diplo, Jimmy Iovine, and gusting through the Roxy's back entrance (nearly knocking us over) to join Iovine just before showtime, Pharrell and his entourage.LA Record has a review and pictures from one of the Ace Hotel shows. Video of her covering "Smells Like Teen Spirit" at one of them, below...
The Roxy's VIP section has seen its share of celebrities, of course, but this bizarre mixed bag was hard to miss. Even Patti herself took notice, dedicating one of her first numbers to The Moz and later speaking of Iovine's influence and production on her acclaimed album Easter, a moment which led into a highlight of the evening, a bewitching rendition of "Because the Night."

Blondie singer Debbie Harry has an upcoming NYC residency at Cafe Carlyle, and since we last posted, it's been expanded.

Theater Mania reports that Debbie will also appear at Upper West Side theater Stage 72 on March 14 and 16 for the Celebrity Autobiography series, which features "a line-up of rotating performers who read--in both solo and ensemble pieces-- the actual words and stories written by the famous and the infamous in their autobiographies." The 3/14 show also features Pamela Adlon, Rachel Dratch, Janeane Garofalo, Ralph Macchio, Eugene Pack and Dayle Reyfel; and on 3/16 it's Adlon, Dratch, Garofalo, Pack, and Reyfel once again, plus Tate Donovan and Alan Zweibel.

The Empty Hearts @ Knitting Factory - 10/18/14
The Empty Hearts, aka the band featuring Blondie's Clem Burke, The Cars' Elliot Easton, The Romantics' Wally Palmer and Chesterfield Kings' Andy Babiuk, brought their current tour to NYC for a show at Knitting Factory on 10/18 with Party Lights. They were introduced by The E Street Band's Steven Van Zandt, which was appropriate since he named their band. In addition to performing their entire new album, they did a few Cars, Romantics and Blondie songs too, and squeezed in some other covers including "I Wanna Be Your Man." Pictures of the show (including one of the setlist) are in this post and continue, with some videos, below...

The Empty Hearts are a new-ish supergroup featuring Blondie's Clem Burke, The Cars' Elliot Easton, The Romantics' Wally Palmer and Chesterfield Kings' Andy Babiuk.

You can stream one of its tracks, "90 Miles An Hour Down A Dead End Street," below.
The band is also going on a short international tour in October which includes a NYC show happening on October 18 at Knitting Factory Brooklyn. Tickets for that show are on sale now. All dates are listed below.

Solange, Beyonce & Jay Z issue joint statement on elevator incident; Debbie Harry stars in fake "elevator violence" PSA
Solange @ Webster Hall this past weekend (more by Dana [distortion] Yavin)
By now you've surely seen the leaked video of Solange berating, then getting physical, with Jay Z in an elevator (Beyonce was there too), at NYC's The Standard Hotel as they were leaving an afterparty for the Met Gala on May 5. While there has been no shortage of speculation as to what the tiff was over, the three have issued a joint statement to the AP saying everything's hunky-dory now:
As a result of the public release of the elevator security footage from Monday, May 5th, there has been a great deal of speculation about what triggered the unfortunate incident. But the most important thing is that our family has worked through it. Jay and Solange each assume their share of responsibility for what has occurred. They both acknowledge their role in this private matter that has played out in the public. They both have apologized to each other and we have moved forward as a united family.Well, glad that is settled. In related news, The Daily Show aired a PSA starring Debbie Harry, warning folks about "the scourge of private elevator violence that affects everyone from the very famous to the incredibly famous." Debbie and her band Blondie just happened to be on the show to play live and plug their new album, Blondie 4(0) Ever. You can watch the PSA segment and their live performance of "Sugar on the Side" and a web-only rendition of classic "One Way or Another," below...
The reports of Solange being intoxicated or displaying erratic behavior throughout that evening are simply false. At the end of the day families have problems and we're no different. We love each other and above all we are family. We've put this behind us and hope everyone else will do the same.

The Split Squad (mems of Blondie, Plimsouls & more) made an LP, playing East Coast dates (NYC tonight w/ The Figgs)
by Bill Pearis
The Split Squad: Clem, Keith, Michael, Josh & Eddie
The Split Squad formed around singer/bassist Michael Giblin, who is a session musician and producer and has fronted bands like The Paralax Project and Cherry Twister. If that name is unfamiliar, you might know some of the rest of the band: Clem Burke (Blondie), Keith Streng (The Fleshtones), Eddie Munoz (The Plimsouls), and Josh Kantor (The Baseball Project). The band's 2013 album, Now Hear This, was produced by Young Fresh Fellows frontman Scott McCaughey and features appearances from R.E.M.'s Peter Buck and members of upstate NY powerpop trio The Figgs. Given that group of musicians, it might not surprise you that The Split Squad make crunchy, Beatlesque rock pop. The record's a fun listen and you can stream the whole thing below.
The group are on a weekend East Coast tour and play NYC tonight (4/25) at The Bowery Electric. The Figgs are on the bill, plus Los Dudes, and tickets are on sale.
The Split Squad also play New Haven, CT's Cafe Nine on Saturday (4/26) and Long Branch, NJ's Brighton Bar on Monday (4/28). Dates are listed, along with the album stream, below...

Debbie Harry joined Arcade Fire at Coachella (setlist, video); Obama was introduced in Austin (pics)

Arcade Fire w/ Debbie Harry / mirror man @ Coachella / "Obama" in Austin
Arcade Fire were introduced by a man wearing a suit made of shattered mirrors and opened up their set with 'Reflektor', with Chassagne shining mirror discs strapped onto her hands into the crowd. "Alright guys, we're gonna give you every ounce of what we've got if you give it back to us," said frontman Butler before 'Rebellion (Lies)'.Coachella wrapped up its first weekend yesterday (4/13), after kicking off this past Friday (day 1 pics). Among the day 3 performers were Arcade Fire, who have played Coachella before, but this was their first time there as headliners. Among the bobbleheads that Arcade Fire have been featuring in their shows were President Obama and Pope Francis, who both made their debuts at Arcade Fire's recent show in Austin. Also like at that show, they played a cover of Blondie's "Heart of Glass" into the similarly '70s new wave-style "Sprawl II (Mountains Beyond Mountains)." But this time was more exciting because they were joined by Blondie singer Debbie Harry who was a guest singer at SXSW for the Dum Dum Girls (who also played Coachella). Debbie sang "Heart of Glass" with them, and she stuck around to sing backup on "Sprawl II" too. Watch a full set video of Arcade Fire's Coachella set, along with their setlist, below.
Butler later railed against the various VIP areas at the festival to cheers from the crowd, commenting: "I just want to say that there's a lot of fake VIP room bullshit happening at this festival, and sometimes people dream of being there - but it super sucks in there, so don't worry about it." He also made a sly dig about the electronica/EDM heavy aspect of the festival, giving a "shout out to all the bands playing instruments this weekend" at the end of the set. [NME]
Speaking of Debbie Harry and covers, she's on the cover of the May issue of MOJO which is available now. Pictures of Coachella day 3 are coming soon, but meanwhile you can check out some pics from the recent Austin show (Obama bobblehead included) in this post. More below and many more at BV Austin.

Ramones/Blondie producer Craig Leon reissuing solo material on RVNG, playing Moogfest & NYC (stream a track)
[Craig] Leon moved to Manhattan in the early 1970s where he accepted an A&R position at Sire Records in New York under Gottehrer and his partner Seymour Stein. There he was responsible for the discovery and early development of the Ramones and Talking Heads amongst other artists. He produced the first Ramones album and also concentrated on licensing more adventurous European records which the majors were unwilling to release in the U.S. At Sire, Craig learned the skills necessary for the production, as well as manufacture of recorded music.Craig Leon, who (as the above bio states) has produced Ramones, Talking Heads, Richard Hell, Blondie, The Fall, Suicide and more, also put out music of his own, including 1981's and 1982's synth albums, Nommos and Visiting, respectively. Those albums are now both getting reissued as Anthology of Interplanetary Folk Music Vol. 1 on June 24 as part of RVNG Intl.'s archival series. (Nommos was reissued in the UK last year via Superior Viaduct.) If you're unfamiliar with Craig's work, preview the new reissue with the track "One Hundred Steps" below. Album artwork and tracklist below too.
After producing the 'Live at CBGBs' compilation for Atlantic Records, Craig joined Richard Gottehrer and Marty Thau to set up a production company called Instant Records. Projects included the early Blondie records, Richard Hell & The Voidoids and Suicide.
...He has written and performed on three albums of his own, including "Nommos" (a dance piece based on North African ethnic themes and electronic music, that was used by members of The Twyla Tharp dance troupe which was also used as the opening exhibit for the Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art in 1981),and the full length score of the Kosh Dance Theatre piece, "Klub Anima", which deals with alternating classical and modern electronic forms.
Craig will be making the US debut of Nommos at RVNG's Moogfest showcase in Asheville, NC this April, and just after that he'll come to NYC for a show on April 30 at Le Poisson Rouge to perform it with the American Contemporary Music Ensemble. PAN's Bill Kouligas is also on the bill. Tickets will be on sale via LPR's site and the show flyer is below.

What a (long) night! The Amnesty International show at Barclays Center wrapped up around 1am Wednesday night with a concert-ending performance by The Flaming Lips and Yoko Ono.

Those sitting too far away to see could watch what was going on on the big screens, though sometimes that content was a bit questionable. Did you go? What did you think? We'll have more on the whole shebang with pics later.

Lou Reed memorial happened at the Apollo w/ Patti Smith, Laurie Anderson, Debbie Harry, Antony, Paul Simon (pics)
photos by Adam Nelson | WORKHOUSE
The late Lou Reed was honored with a last-minute memorial in Harlem at the legendary Apollo Theatre last night (12/17), which was organized by his wife Laurie Anderson. The memorial saw some of Lou's notable friends/collaborators singing the songs of the Velvet Underground and his solo career plus reading or performing tributes to him, including Patti Smith and her bandmate Lenny Kaye, Antony Hegarty, Debbie Harry (of Blondie), Paul Simon, John Zorn, Philip Glass, former VU bandmate Moe Tucker, and others. An excerpt from the NY Times review of the show reads:
Ms. Anderson said that Mr. Reed wrote songs in single bursts. "He would wake up in the middle of the night and just write the song down and it was complete," she said. "He never changed a word. He thought, 'First thought, best thought.' "That review also points out that Laurie Anderson said Lou's last words were "Take me out into the light!"
Mr. Simon sang the Velvets' "Pale Blue Eyes," marveling at its beauty and admitting there were lines he never understood. Emily Haines, from the Canadian band Metric, sang "All Tomorrow's Parties," and Jenni Muldaur sang the pensive "Jesus." Deborah Harry rocked through "White Light/White Heat."
Ms. Smith chose "Perfect Day" for what she called "Lou's most poignant lyric": "You made me forget myself/I thought I was someone else, someone good." The a cappella doo-wop group the Persuasions reworked Mr. Reed's "Turning Time Around." Antony Hegarty, who appeared in the stage production of Mr. Reed's album "Berlin," performed a slow, poignant, tremulous "Candy Says." Julian Schnabel, who filmed "Berlin," calmly recited the patricidal, carnage-filled "Rock Minuet."
The saxophonist John Zorn represented Mr. Reed's improvisational side with a squealing, scurrying, exultantly perpetual-motion yawp of a solo. And Philip Glass, on piano, accompanied a recitation of the Kaddish prayer.
Pictures of the memorial are in this post. They continue below...

Blondie / Glassjaw / Public Enemy fans
With about 20 albums under their belt, it was interesting to see what songs Guided By Voices would pick for their Riot Fest set. Keeping in mind that most audience members might not be familiar with everything in their vast discography, frontman Robert Pollard announced each song's name with a short introduction throughout the whole set. The band opened with "Xeno Pariah" and followed up with songs like "Island," "Shocker in Gloomtown," and "The Challenge Is Much More," only stopping to take a quick swig from a small bottle to oil up his voice. [BV Chicago]Riot Fest Chicago (the second of three Riot Fests this year) continued on Saturday (9/14) for its second of three days. The second day had tons of multi-generational alternative music representation including punk's late '70s heyday (Blondie, X, FLAG -- the Keith Morris version of Black Flag), second wave ska (The Selecter), third wave ska (Rancid), classic indie rock (Dinosaur Jr., Violent Femmes, Guided by Voices), modern indie rock (Surfer Blood, Stars, The Sidekicks), classic hip hop (Public Enemy), and turn-of-the-millenium poppunk/emo/post-hardcore (blink-182, Taking Back Sunday, Glassjaw). Pictures from that day are in this post, and there's more pictures, plus a review, over at BV Chicago.
Update: Day 3 pictures are here and here.
If you missed them, check out day 1 pics and more day 1 pics. More of day 2, below...

TOY @ BV SXSW 2013 (more by Sarah Frankie Linder)
UK motorik shoegazers TOY were supposed to play NYC back in March while the band were coming over for SXSW. The Austin shows happened (like at one of our SXSW day shows) but NYC didn't -- a personal bummer to this writer, as their debut album was one of my favorites of 2012. Good news, TOY will be stopping in NYC on their way to the Corona Capital Fest in Mexico City, playing Glasslands on October 10. Tickets to that show go on sale Friday (7/26) at 10 AM.
The Corona Capital Fest happens October 12 & 13 at Mexico City's Hermanos Rodriguez Autodrome. You can check out the line-up -- which includes Phoenix, Arctic Monkeys, QOTSA, Vampire Weekend, The xx and more -- below and tickets are on sale now.

Pandora is now enjoying phenomenal success as a Wall Street company. Skyrocketing growth in revenues and users. We celebrate that. At the same time, the music community is just now beginning to gain its footing in the new digital world.
Pandora's principal asset is the music.
Why is the company asking Congress once again to step in and gut the royalties that thousands of musicians rely upon? That's not fair, and that's not how partners work together.
Congress has many pressing issues to consider, but this is not one of them. Let's work this out as partners and continue to bring fans the great musical experience they rightly expect.
The issue is that Pandora is supporting the Internet Radio Fairness Act which they say will "help end the long-standing discrimination against internet radio". Artists are mad because that possibly means less money for them, but Pandora and other Internet radio providers argue they can't stay in business the way things are now.

Blondie @ State Theatre - 10/2/12
Anarchy symbols, peace signs, skulls, and other images lit up the high walls and ceilings of Port Chester's Capitol Theatre last night (10/7) as Blondie came out for their third NYC area show (and final date) of the tour they'd been on since September. Debbie Harry, at 67 years young, was looking as great as ever decked out in sparkling black sunglasses, a metallic silver coat, and bleach blonde hair to go with her sharp attitude, sleek dance moves, and a very in-tact voice. Debbie was joined on stage by original members Chris Stein (guitar) and Clem Burke (drums), and the lineup is rounded out by the more recently added Leigh Foxx (bass), Matt Katz-Bohen (keyboards), and Tommy Kessler (guitar), the latter of who looks like he wants to be a frontman and could've chilled with the Van Halen solos (though a chunk of the crowd seemed to love it). But that aside, the whole band was on point and still ageless in spirit.
In 2011, Blondie put their finishing touches on Panic of Girls, their first full length since 2003, so it wasn't a surprise that they chose to play a number of songs from that record. And don't get me wrong, Panic of Girls is a solid effort and the songs sounded good at the show, but of course the real treats came from the old singles. At under an hour and a half, my only complaint about the set is that I would have liked to hear more, but we still got a handful of crowd pleasers like "Dreaming," "Hanging on the Telephone," "Call Me," "The Tide Is High," and others. At the end of the rap-inspired "Rapture," they worked in a portion of fellow NYC legends Beastie Boys' "No Sleep Til Brooklyn," which they've been doing all tour (on past tours they've done it with "Fight For Your Right"). Debbie worked the crowd the whole show, especially doing so on "One Way or Another," for which she got everyone clapping and put the mic in the audience for the crowd to chant the song's title.
Unfortunately, none of the northeast shows on the tour were with Devo, who joined Blondie on most of the September shows (we did catch that tour in Austin though). This leg of the tour also hit the NYC area last Tuesday (10/2) at New Brunswick's State Theatre on Thursday (10/4) at Staten Island's St. George Theatre. The pictures in this post are from the State Theatre show, which The Smithereens opened. (No pics from the Capitol Theatre show but you can see some shots of the great looking newly renovated venue from Regina Spektor's show last week.) Though the public dates on the tour are over, as mentioned, Blondie will perform a YouTube Presents concert from the Google offices in NYC on Wednesday (10/10) at 4 PM, which will stream live on YouTube.
More pics from the State Theatre show (setlist written on a drum head included) and a video of Blondie doing "Rapture/No Sleep Til Brooklyn" in Houston are below...

Too much water?
bccecil(Z6 KY)August 20, 2003
We have had a very wet spring and summer this year and I just noticed that two of my beautiful hellebores have the stems rotted off at ground level. These were my first and biggest ones. They are planted on a slope, but I guess the 3 inches of rain at a time were just too much. Is there anything I can do to prevent this from happening again? Brenda

The Twins At St Clare's
School life has never been so splendid as in these editions of the classic series, St Clare's. Full of dilemmas and school pranks, this best-selling series keeps young readers looking forward to each and every term at St Clare's.
The O' Sullivan Twins
Ah, you English girls! There is nobody like you when you are nice!' said Mam'zelle. Pat and Isabel are determined to work hard this term. But it's just so tempting to play a few tricks on Mam'zelle
Summer Term At St Clare's
'I hate sneaks Worse than Anything. If you dare tell tales again, I'll make you Very SORRY.' Carlotta has a secret past! What will happen when sneaky Prudence tells the rest of the class?
Second Form at St Clare's
' Where is my knitting-bag?' said Pat, turning a whole drawer-full of things upside down. ' I know I brought it home at the end of last term.' ' I can only find one of my lacrosse boots,' wailed Isabel. ' Mummy, have you seen the other?' ' Yes, it came back from the bootmaker's yesterday,' said Mrs. O'Sullivan. ' Where did you put it?' ' Packing to go to school is always much more muddling than packing to come back home,' said Pat. ' I say. Isabel-won't it be fun to be in the second form this term?' ' Who is your form-teacher there? ' asked their mother, unpacking half Pat's things and packing them all over again.
The Third Form at St Clare's
As school term begins after the holidays, a terrible accident and a hilarious school play reveal the class leaders, as well as the cheaters and the cowards.
Kittty at St Clare's
St Clare's is a boarding-school for girls. The books follow the exploits of Patricia ("Pat") and Isabel O'Sullivan from their first form upwards. The series is full of the adventures the girls go through in St Clares, as they try their tricks and jokes, their midnight feasts, fun and friendship. Fun apart, school also means hard work, exams, problems, hot tempers, malice and snobbery. Certainly there's never a dull moment at St. Clare's!
Claudin at St Clare's
It's summer term again and the St Clare girls have taken a quantum leap into the fourth form, skipping the third entirely. One can understand how Blyton might overlook niggling details, considering the number of books she wrote, but didn't the publishers ever point out that the students skipped a whole year.No matter, Claudine at St Clare's is still one of the most delightful books in the series.This time the old girls have four new students to contend with, not to mention an evil Matron an interesting change from the wise and just authority figures that generally govern Blytonian schools.
Fifth Formers at St Clare's
The St. Clare's girls are now in the fifth form, shortly to go up into the sixth, but they are not too old for tricks and escapades, jokes and excitement. Especially amusing is French girl Antoinette who, like her sister Claudine, doesn't always understand the ways of St. Clare's.
The Sixth Form at St Clare's
The O'Sullivan twins are head girls! There's two cheeky first formers - more twins! - and a sulky new girl in the sixth form, Morag. Morag detests St Clare's. She's only happy when she can escape to the local riding stables. The twins are sad it's their last year at St Clare's. Before they leave, will they find out what's wrong with Morag?

White female albino sibling rabbits (2) bought from a garden center from same litter when approx 8 weeks old. Both have been housed together in a hutch inside my home. One is solid white, the other has a black nose. Very good natured and good around cats. I work full time and cannot let them run around freely as much as I'd like, or they probably need. The food/hay/vegs purchases are also becoming difficult on my fixed income. I really want to find them another good home.

|PIease Read Before Adopting a Rabbit in Louisiana
Rabbits can make good pets in Louisiana if they match your IifestyIe. Rabbits are adorable, soft animals that make popular pets for children. While a rabbit can make a good pet for a child, keep in mind that to be healthy a rabbit requires a quiet, calm living environment. Please only adopt a rabbit if you feel you can create a safe and quiet space for the rabbit in your home. Rabbits can be housetrained to live inside, out of a cage, which dramatically increases their life spans. Rabbits can live as long as a dog or a cat, and unfortunately some people do not approach the decision to get a rabbit with the same seriousness or commitment they might have about getting a dog. Meanwhile, breeders may separate young rabbits from their mothers too early, which damages their immune systems, and pet stores might provide very little information about proper care and nutrition. As a result, countless rabbits die within weeks of being bought. Others are never spayed or neutered, resulting in unanticipated family additions and a major overpopulation problem. Sadly, the majority of these sweet pets are eventually euthanized. Rescue shelters that accept rabbits are often overflowing. If you are planning to bring home a pet rabbit, please adopt!

The Army has been working tirelessly to design smartphones that soldiers can use in the field, and their efforts are about to pay off. Officials believe that troops will be able to use the devices starting as early as next summer, Military Times reports.
One of the final hurdles, the Android operating system receiving approval from the National Security Agency, is almost cleared. When use of the new devices is implemented it will provide servicemembers with a number of new advantages including connecting them to mission command computer systems.
"When we're able to do that, not if, that opens up the door for much greater usage of the phones by soldiers," Mike McCarthy, the director of the mission command complex of the Future Force Integration Directorate at Fort Bliss, told the publication. "It allows us to build apps that feed those systems and pull things out of them, and that gives soldiers incredible capabilities."
Smartphones are certainly not the only advancements being used by the Armed Forces. According to NPR, the Navy is making use of green technology including non-fossil fuels.

Regent Alum's Work Plays In Times Square
| March 3, 2014
Chris Free's work in Times Square
Regent University School of Communication & the Arts (SCA) alumnus and current adjunct Christopher Free ('11) has seen his work on hundreds of screens before. From the editing room monitors to televisions, the Telly Award-winning filmmaker is no stranger to premieres.
But his latest work has found its biggest stage yet on the jumbotrons of New York City's Times Square.
The 30-second commercial that Free edited currently airs on the NASDAQ signage and in Grand Central Station intermittently from March 1-15, and with a dedicated block from 3:45-4:15pm on the NASDAQ towers and the Reuters building.
Free's work showcases support for the organization Fight Colorectal Cancer from Grammy Award winner Sheryl Crow. The commercial encourages individuals to get screened for the disease and requests support to help in the fight.
"It's an honor to have the work showcased," Free said. "Drew Lewis, who is in the commercial, lost his life to colorectal cancer and I'm sure he would want his legacy to serve as a very loud reminder that this type of cancer is highly preventable and highly treatable—I hope this honors his legacy."
According to Cancer.gov, colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of death from cancer in the United States and it's recommended that men and women of average risk for the disease should get screened starting at age 50.
Free has had his work featured on MTV, Forbes and The Washington Post. In addition to his adjunct teaching, Free works as a producer for the Christian Broadcasting Network (CBN).
Watch Free's commercial on the jumbotrons through one of the live streaming webcams:

Sweet Spot Roses - retailer??
I e-mailed and called a lot of local nurseries in the Seattle/Tacoma area where I live and came to a dead end trying to find Sweet Spot roses. I was told to try internet websites and came up empty there too. A gardener who writes an article in the local newspaper talked about Sweet Spot roses which got my interest but I'm having zero luck finding these.
Anyone know of retailers that carry these (e.g., online retailers)? I'm most interested in the Calypso and Yellow varieties.
Monrovia distributes the Sweet Spot roses. You might check on Monrovia's website, and do a search for a local retailer. Here's the link to the page for all four SS. You'll have to click on each one to check for retailers. They MIGHT not be available yet, but you could contact Monrovia by email to find out.
Here is a link that might be useful: Monrovia- Sweet Spot Roses

GoDaddy Founder Buys Arizona Ad Agency
by Richard Whitman on Nov 29, 9:55 AM
If anybody can tart up Adland more than it already is it's Bob Parsons, famous for his Super Bowl ads replete with buxomly, scantily-clad women (and press releases denouncing the networks for rejecting them). Meanwhile, halfway around the world in India it turns out that many of the ad-marketing issues there are similar to the ones Madison Avenue types deal with. Who knew! And Ramon De Leon Rises to the occasion.

Consumers Want More Scrooge In Their Holiday Ads
by Richard Whitman on Nov 27, 9:56 AM
They're cranky from all that shopping and the kids probably deserve coal this year anyway. And the staff at Nail Communications wins Gold, and lets it totally go to their heads. Also, Mekanism makes a new website with a "parallax effect." Hopefully your head won't explode when you check it out.

Did DDB Copy "Yogi's First Christmas" For John Lewis Christmas Ad?
by Richard Whitman on Nov 25, 11:44 AM
Suspicions aroused because both works use references to hibernating bears and alarm clocks. Sweet Baby Jesus, give it a rest people! Meanwhile, Fishbat, our Most Ridiculously Named Agency of the Day, is out to Club Internet Trolls Like Baby Seals. And, just in case you've been hibernating, SIX22 wants you to know that Thanksgiving and the start of Hanukkah fall on the same day this year. Moving along, Sir Martin is still crazy about China after all these years and Havas comes up with a new concept--integration!

Will Agencies Prankvertise Mike Mixson's Selfie Ad Into Flash Mob Oblivion?
by Richard Whitman on Nov 22, 12:07 PM
Mike buys golf clubs. As a golf shop owner you'd think he'd be selling them. MetropolitanRepublic is back in the saddle after it got caught cheating in an awards competition. The 4As head Nancy Hill sounds off on ad taxes. POG partner Publicis wants to get bigger still and how many clients would want to work with an agency called Blow? Not enough apparently as the shop has shuttered.

Publicis Loses Disney Media Account (Temporarily)
by Richard Whitman on Nov 21, 10:13 AM
With the POG merger in the works the shift seems more like an office redesign than an account shift. That's not necessarily a good thing. Separately, Edelman's new hire further illustrates the increasingly blurry line between earned and paid media and WPP digital shop VML continues down its expansion path. Also,Terminex shifts from a Dallas shop to a Chicago agency. And in New York the beautiful people toil in Adland, according to one survey.

Ogilvy & Mather Wins 'World Series' of Advertising Awards
by Richard Whitman on Nov 20, 12:43 PM
The cash bonus probably wasn't as good as the one for the real World Series but Ogilvy sure collected a lot more hardware. Ever hear of a dog with two tails? Apparently they're pretty happy. And Adland needs to grow a pair according to one industry vet while Richards/Lerma blows it out of the water for a big win. And David Droga lets Adland have it with both barrels, while three Mother vets hang out their own shingle in Austin.

Leo Burnett, DDB Could Lose McDonald's
by Richard Whitman on Nov 19, 9:38 AM
Don Thompson, CEO of the fast food chain took his agencies to task after an October sales dip. Some recent ads didn't resonate well. After all, who wouldn't want to eat the tasty grub the company serves up? Those damn ads drove people away! Moving right along, don't be a company killer--hand your entire online ad portfolio over to Eye To Ad Media. And despite WPP's public denials, rumors continue to swirl that it's buying Interpublic. Martin, just buy the company already, and the rumors will stop!

Surprise! Surprise! Papa John's Seeks New Agency
by Richard Whitman on Nov 18, 11:20 AM
The chain's CEO didn't exactly dish out the compliments to incumbent ZGroup, which declined to participate in the review. Nothing wrong with the current agency's approach that a big dose of fresh thinking and innovation can't cure! Meanwhile, Madison Avenue gets serious about helping the plight of victims from the recent typhoon in the Philippines. And DigitasLBI, Razorfish and Google get lots of press for a deal that's not that out of the ordinary.

Tough camellia -- Amazing story
Back in 2006, I bought two camellia bushes. The two were grown in their pots side-by-side, inside a raised bed filled with many shade-loving plants, most of which were in the ground.
I had a plan to build a collection of specimens, mostly hybrids, which I intended grow for cuttings. One has died a short while after I bought it, but the other has survived. The propagated cuttings were intended for growing and selling as mature plants, as an extra income. However, work and extra-income activity did not mix well. There were numerous difficulties organizing things, although the technicality of propagating the cuttings did well. Too often, things were moved from one place to the other to make-up for lack of space, other things were forgotten and dehydrated, too many hands spoiled the soup, a dog was brought and there was no time for fencing in mid-winter. The raised bed became nothing more than a doggy-litter. 2007 was the beginning of the credit crisis. Commodity prices went-up for a while and I paid too much taxes. Debts accumulated and years of savings have evaporated. I don't remember what was left in the garden, but I could smell the litter from the street. Too busy for doing anything else but work.
Contrary to grower's recommendations, my father occasionally watered the surviving camellia bush with tap-water. In my country water is too alkaline ("hard"). Leaf litter and occasional coffee grounds was the only nutrients it received. Last week, I noticed that despite all that, the bush was doing well and is covered with lush new growth. There were no yellow leaves and no signs of high-pH stress. Tomorrow, I am going to repot it and move it to a brighter location. With some luck, I will take some cuttings while pruning it. Hope they will root and grow...
Congratulations! I also hope you are successful with the new cuttings!
This part of Texas has a lot of alkaline soils and my camellias have tolerated the alkalinity well. I do ammend the soil in Spring with garden Sulphur though and sometimes, not always, I will water by hand using water from a rain barrel.

Drywall / Sheetrock bubbles or blisters
I have a question that no one can answer. And I cannot find any info in the internet because all of the search results say 'nail pops" but I don't think they are. In my condo, I have about 40 round drywall bubbles. These are all consistently the diameter of about 1" or a little over and occur where the nails are.
I also have some nail pops which are about a half of an inch in diameter.
These bubbles sound hollow when I tap them with my fingernail. At first I thought the mud was separated from from the dimple, but when I cut a bunch open around the perimeter of the bubble, the bubble is actually under the drywall paper/skin just to the side of the nail. "Paper/skin separated from the rock/gypsum. Nails, are solid and look properly dimpled. Still tried punching the nails in but bubbles are still there.
What is the proper way to fix these?
But, more importantly, what the heck caused this? Those bubbles where there when the condo was brand new! So I don't think it's due to settling.
Thanks so much!
One inch sounds like the diameter of a hammer?
I think the only thing you can do is cut them out, cover with the mesh fiberglass tape (you can get real thin tape) and then apply joint compound.
I talked to a house painter. Never heard of it. They're all over the place. It's as if the sheetrock skin buckled away from the rock right next to the nail. Thanks, guys
I do not claim to be a drywall expert-- but I have done lots of small-scale drywall work. If this was mine, I would select an area that is not seen much-- inside a closet is ideal- and experiment. Try 3 or 4 spots with each technique. The loose stuff must be removed first so that any added material is bonded to firm surfaces. Brush away any dust from that area. One technique is drywall compound alone, thin layers. Another is to use Gorilla glue in the spot, just enough to wet out the area by spreading it with a dull table knife and immediately cover it with a larger piece of blue masking tape. Leave the tape for 24 hours, peel it off, sand flush, then drywall compound over that and sand smooth again. The glue foams up and sands well after fully dried-- but leaves a porous surface. It holds tenaciously to both paper and the gypsum core. Admission: I have not tried the Gorilla glue for this problem- but I certainly would if I had the problem you describe. The adhesive on the tape should act as a release agent from the cured Gorilla glue. If it does not, paint thinner will gradually loosen the rubber-based adhesive on the tape. Prime all repaired spots, let the primer dry and sand lightly before finish paint. I prefer oil base primer for sealing these patches, but it is virtually unavailable now.
Be imaginative and dream up additional things to try. Bondo auto body filler?
This post was edited by bus_driver on Sat, Apr 13, 13 at 13:49
When you hammer i nail for drywall your are trying to create a shallow dimple with the hammer that places the nail head in s shallow dimple that does not cut through through the paper layer.
It is actually easier with a screw setter.
You give it a decent push as it sets the screw and it creates nice uniform dimples and releases the screw at the correct depth.
If the hammer bole is harder than needed the paper coating can all tel easily tear in a circle that then cause a bubble when the mud is applied.
the first fix is often to try and sand the dimples to flush, then prime and paint.
Another sharp rap with a hammer and then a larger feathered out repair usually does the trick.
If it is new work draw a pencil circle around each one and cal the tradesman back for the repair.
Thanks guys for the responses.
bus_driver, I'll keep the Gorilla Glue in mine. Pretty good idea. There's a lot of these bubbles and I would like to repair them fairly easily but well enough so the next owner doesn't have an issue with them 20 years from now.
brickeyee, I don't completely follow you. Do you mean to place screws(with a screw setter) exactly on top of the bubble to secure it back in? Bubbles always occur right next to the nail... Never on the nail because nails are not popping. You mean push the bubble back with a screw? That way, I wouldn't have to break the paper to clean loose rock. The sheetrock paper is never broken with this issue, just a bubble underneath the paper.
I just posted a photo. See below.
Here is a link that might be useful: Photo of bubbles with spackle removed

Looks like nails not driven deep enough and not covered correctly.
If the screw head is not below flush it catches on the drywall knife ad leaves a bump of mud .
It takes a decent amount of finesse to get the nails just below flush while not over driving them so they tear the paper.
They need to be below flush though.
And at least one appears to be a popped nail.

I didn't make myself clear in the original post...
This is all original work when these condos where built 20 years ago. in other words, these bubbles were there when the condo was brand new! I'm just trying to repair these so I can paint the place.
The nails were certainly below the surface of the rock. I had to remove spackle in these two spots to expose the paper as you see in the photo. Bubbles are the sheetrock paper buckling and separating from the rock. I have NO idea what caused this. I tried to drive nails deeper(slightly cracking the paper) but bubbles still remain. Trying to figure out the best and easiest way to fix these since there are a lot. Thanks, brickeyee
Oh,. That circular shape/light you see is just a flashlight I used to add more light for the pictures I took last night.
