Any yucca fans in NJ?
I'm new here and was wondering who is growing yuccas in NJ? Are you a fan of them? What kinds are you growing? I live in Southern NJ near the southern end of the Gloucester/Camden county line. I'm growing about 20 different varities and have over 70 yuccas. They are amazing plants and nearly indestructible.
Deb from Mount Laurel, Burlington County, here. I planted a yucca in a large ceramic pot this year. I will probably overwinter it in the pot, but I imagine I will need to plant it out in the spring. Sorry if it strikes you as heretical to have planted it in a pot at all! Any advice about the needs of yucca locally would be greatly appreciated.
And Hank, you don't have to convince me about the merits of subtropical gardening, having seen bananas and palms growing happily together at a nearby plant swap this September. What a fantastic effect!
Deb, that's okay if you have one in a pot. But, what kind is it and where will it overwinter. If it's a recurvifolia, maybe you should put it in a garage during january and February. Recurvifolias are officially rated as a 7a yucca in the ground. In the event of some really really cold weather, it could suffer in a pot outside. I could give you lots of advice about raising yuccas in NJ, but it depends on what kind you are growing. Yuccas native to the eastern U.S. can take a lot more moisture all during the year and can handle different types of soils better then yuccas from the SW U.S. SW yuccas need very fast draining sandy rocky soil and can't take a lot of moisture. Some SW yuccas have a very high tolerance to cold weather, but they have to be bone dry to handle the cold. Throw in some South Jersey winter wetness and those SW yuccas lose a lot of their cold hardiness.
Hank, glad to see you here too.
Deb, there are so many types of Yuccas !
Some of them hardy to -20F -30F (Filamentosa) some of them
are hardy only to zone 8.
Some Yuccas can stand easily humid conditions and wet winters (Y.Recurvifolia, Y.Aloifolia), and some Texas Yuccas (Rostrata, Thompson, Treculiana) will rot during wet winters
if not planted in elevated beds with good drainage and with some canopy obove.
Therefore when people say they have a Yucca it most likely to be Y.Filamentosa (Adam's Needle) - the most common and the hardiest one.
It does not develop any trunk.
Rostrata, Thompson, Recurvifolia,Gloriosa, Aloifolia, Treculiana and some other Yuccas are considered tree yuccas and they grow trunk from 4' to up to 15' but it takes years.
also, when you plant your yucca outdoors, it will develop much faster than being in the pot.
If your yucca is purchased in local nursery, you can plant it now, you do not have to keep it in the pot over winter
I remember the plant tag described this yucca as an Adam's needle. It does not show any signs of developing a trunk. It worries me to have it in a pot because I do think it would like some room to grow.
I bought it on impulse. I have what I call my ornamental grass garden in a set of brown glazed ceramic pots of varying sizes. I had a vacancy and saw the yucca, and like most gardeners, I am always looking to expand my knowedge of the plant kingdom, so I bought it.
Grasses can be divided, but yuccas cannot, is that right? Which is why I do want to plant it out. I was thinking it would be better to leave it in the pot over the winter, thinking it would be more or less dormant, and then plant it out with the best start soil-wise, etc., in the spring, when it would be in a more active period of growth. What do you advise? I will plant it in the front of our house, which is rather formally landscaped (by the previous owners, but looks nice, I think) with beds that have a layer of landscape fabric put down, then covered by a layer of red gravel. Planting in these beds is always difficult, and I don't really know much about the soil beneath. A kousa dogwood and various evergreens occupy the same bed.
How big should I dig the hole and what sort of soil conditions should I create for this yucca? As Sue said, in times of drought, planting something like yucca makes sense. And sorry, I did mean to sound that dumb, gardening-wise. Once I saw your post, Jim, and had seen an earlier post of yours, Hank, I realized that yuccas must present all kinds of gardening possibilities that I had previously not thought about. I just love the fact that here in New Jersey we have the ability to mix your more typical Northern type of plant with tropical types. So I am trying to learn more!
Deb, Adam's needle is a plain old yucca filamentosa, very common in our area and even grow wild. You are right that type of yucca will not form a trunk, but may develop a prostrate stem over a long period of time. They are very hardy, down to zone 4 or 5. So if you leave it in the pot outside over winter, it'll be fine. Even if we get a cold winter, it won't be zone 5 cold. Also, since it is a filamentosa that has developed a root system in its pot, you can plant it now. Just dig a hole a little bigger than the pot. Make sure the stem is slightly higher than the rest of the ground so water drains away. Filamentosa doesen't really need any special treatment other than full sun. It will get bigger so take that into consideration when you plant it. It can also handle more moisture than other yucca types.
About seperating yuccas, no they can not be seperated like an ornamental grass, but you can seperate offshoots called suckers or pups that will pop up from the main plant. You can also dig down next to an established yucca and break off a piece of root and it will start to grow within a few months. This is not the time of year to get suckers or root cuttings started in the ground. You could start them in a greenhouse or inside if you were able to provide good bottom heat. Yuccas need a lot of heat to get going.
When your yucca blooms you'll see the big flower spike grow from the center of the plant. After the bloom spike dies off, the rosette of leaves that produced the spike will die off. It happens very slowly over a period of seasons. The plant is not dead and will send a brand new set of leaves either right next to the plant that bloomed or right next to where the spike came out of the rosette of leaves. Filamentosa may or may not continue to grow from the set of leaves that produced the stem. I've seen where a filamentosa will grow a new set of leaves from the old set and I've seen filamentosa never produce new leaves from the old set, only from the ground. Yuccas hybridize all the time, so depending on what genes may be in your yucca will determine how it grows after a bloom. Most other yuccas continue to grow a new set of leaves next to where the bloom spike was. That's what gives yuccas height, or forms the trunks on yuccas.
You mentioned the ability in NJ to have tropical looking things mixed in with a northern garden. If you walked around my yard in the summer (and even now before our first frost), you would think you were somewhere way south of NJ. Huge bananas, cannas, elephant ears, gingers, cactus, caladiums, palms and loads of yuccas. Hank in Princeton is growing a lot of the same things too.
Thanks, Jim. You have taught me so much! I am going to print out this post for later reference.
I did grow caladiums, too, this year, some in pots, some in the ground. They are looking a bit peaked now in this colder weather. I was planning to store the ones in the pots in my garage over the winter. Am I on the right track?
Hi Jim-K, Everyone,
not growing them personally, but there are 3 mature plants at a garden i sometimes volunteer at. Green with ivory white flowers, Adam's Needle makes sense, since this is a churchyard...
I do like the strong presence/form, drought tolerance- essential nowadays, and I do secretly admire
"indestructability" in plants and other beautiful things :)
However! when I'm in the garden and weeding, I don't like getting stabbed by the sharp leaf points, the razor edges are a pain for me as i don't usually wear gloves. I find myself wishing the dead brown leaves at the bases of the plants where easier to pull free without needing my scissors and i always shovel-prune any pups since these guys already occupy their fair share of sun spots.
a curious question: although I've seen hummingbirds in the this garden, I've not witnessed them feed from the Yucca flowers. Have you seen the birds in your garden. Is there a kind they are more attracted to?
I happen to have a yellow/green variegated version [paper]cut-out on my decoupage desk upstairs, still playing around with the layout and what? to combine it with
so,anyway, I guess my opinion is rather polarized on this one :)
Jim. I'm new here also (@7 months later) and have a question for you. We have about 6 or 7 large and mature Yucca's of the green variety. Have no idea what type. My wife wants to split and transplant them about the yard. How do you split them, and will the live if you transplant them?
I have loads of yuccas, they came w/the house. I believe they are the Adam's Needle described above, but they don't bloom. They did bloom when I first moved in about 25 years ago but they have stopped. One bloomed beautifully last year which really surprised me as it is in shade. Any tips on how to produce blooms? I'm not in NJ, but Indiana. Thanks--Claudia*
I also have a bunch of Jacob's Needle yuccas in mixed beds along both sides of my front sidewalk. Several people have commented that they don't like them and have even suggested I remove them. When they bloom, however, I invite these folks back and, boy, does their opinion change! Nothing like walking up that sidewalk at dusk - it's like having so many magnificient candelabras on either side of you.
Claudia, after mine bloom, I cut the entire plant to the root. Just lop the whole thing off. Always comes back and blooms the next year.
For Mark about dividing yuccas. I just saw your post and will try and help you. Dividing yuccas depends on what kind you have. If you have a gloriosa or recuvifolia which grow tall with trunks and branches, you can cut a branch from one , let the cut section dry over for a few days, then just stick the whole thing in the ground and it should root in a few months during warm weather. If you have smaller plants growing out of the ground at the base of a larger portion, try and dig up as much as you can with as much root as you can and plant it wherever you want to move it. If you have smaller yuccas that do not form trunks and branches, you seperate those by digging down and removing them the same as you would from the taller yuccas. It's hard to give exact advice because I don't know exactly what you have. I can tell you though, that if you want to remove a whole yucca from its location, make sure you get all the roots, because they come back with a vengence if you don't get the whole thing out.
I need some help with Yuccas. I bought a home 3 years ago on Long Beach Island, and have a yucca out front. I'm not sure what type, but the leaves are all green, and 1 or 2 stalks grow in the spring, and flower. I've seen the same type of yucca where the hanging, brown leaves are cut away to show a bare trunk, but am not sure how to care for the plant. Chuck
Chuck, there are lots of different varieties of yuccas. Some grow tall, and others clump. Some leaves have filaments along the edges, others don't. Some leaves recurve down in the middle, others are more rigid and don't bend at all. The ones you see with the leaves cut away exposing a trunk are either gloriosa or recurvifolia. Both of those bloom in the spring (gloriosa will bloom in the fall too). When they do bloom, after the flowers fall away and the bloom stalk hardens or browns out, a new set of leaves starts to grow from where the bloom stalk was. In clumping types of yuccas, once the plant blooms, it doesn't continue to grow from the where the bloom stalk was. It sends out new growth from the root system. Over time a large clump forms and it's hard to tell where the older plants end and the new ones begin. The most common types of clumpers in this area are filamentosa and flaccida. Gloriosa and Recurvifolia will send out growth from the roots too, but will put out more height first before starting to clump. Yuccas are hard to identify also because some hybridization occurs among all species, but a certain moth has to be in the area to polinate the flowers. Without the moth, no seed pods will develop. I hope I haven't confused you further.
Jim, thanks. At least I know what I have. It grows tall, flowers in the spring only,the stem browns out, and new leaves form from around the stalk. Nothing grows fro the bottom. Should I cut away the dead leaves that are hanging down? How should I care for, and feed it? It is a pretty plant, but I'm afraid of losing it by caring for it improperly. Chuck
Chuck, you can cut away the leaves if that's the look you want. Here's something to consider though. Many times when a recurv or gloriosa blooms, more than one soucre of new growth emerges from where the bloom stalk was. That means as the new source of growth gets bigger, they form branches. You mentioned that it gets a few bloom spikes per year, so I'm assuming you have a few branches going on there. Depending on how old and big your yucca is, you could have many branches instead of a solitary trunk. Also, alot of times, the old browned out leaves actually lend structural support to the branches. Once the leaves are cut away, the branches may not be strong enough to support the fresher, newer green leaves. Another thing to consider when stripping off old leaves is that you expose the ground near the main trunk and it will actually promote new growth to emerge from the roots or even an exposed section of the trunk or one of the branches. Finally, in a really cold winter stripped yucca branches get really stressed and could snap under the weight of its head of leaves or in a heavy snow.
Lots of things to consider here. You could always just trim away some of the dead leaves closest to the ground exposing just the main trunk and leave some other dead leaves hanging down like a skirt. As far as feeding them, they really don't need any care. Yuccas are very tough plants. In fact, if you dug yours out of the ground, they would come back stronger than before. It would take a few years to get to the size you removed, but you'd have several small ones in its place. The only thing you should do for them is water them during overly hot or dry periods. Good Luck!
We have some yuccas that we rescued from a demolition site years ago. After transplanting them in our yard it took several years before they bloomed. We enjoyed them for a couple of years but now the deer eat the candles even before they're ready to bloom. They also eat the leaves which is surprising because they are so sharp. The mounded leaves, although clipped by the deer still add a little of interest to the landscape. I don't have any idea what variety they are. We really have to add them to our list of things to cover with bird netting next year!
I live in the Chicago Suburbs and recently purchased a Soapweed Yucca, Yucca Rostrata, and a Thompsoniana Yucca. I know that the soapweed yuccas will do fine. They are nice thin stiff-spiked yuccas, w/out bases, but add decoration. They are hardy to about zone 4. My question is now about the other 2. The Yucca Rostrata is supposidly hardy to zone 5 but when doing research, I got a HUGE range of minimal temps. From -20F to 20F Lately our all time winter lows havnt gotten below -5 or so. The Thompsoniana Yucca is less hardy, but still proposed for zone 5. For both I am going to mulch the base well, wrap x-mas lights around the bases, and then rap burlap around them as well. (and maybe stuff some leaves within the crown) Do you guys think that these things will survive here? Our winters have been ALOT more mild than normal zone5 winters. It was almost 50 today for example. Tell me what you think! ( I am very experenced in cold-hardy/winter protection field) THANKS!!! =)
I normally only browse the NJ page but since there is a post on Yucca's...
I have two Y. filamentosaAdam's Needle), one badly damaged by deer(during the late winter) but the other less damaged. The less damaged one bloomed at the end of June and is sending up a smaller flower stalk now, in addition, it appears to have 5 new main stems(centers?) where new leaves, resembling the main growth leaves, have formed. Is this normal(?) and if not what should I do?
Daffknee 2000, i don't know if this is the correct answer, but it worked for me. about 2 yrs. ago, i was at my fathers house. i noticed he had a beautiful yucca (no idea what kind..new to yuccas and gardening)..there were tall spikes with brown pods on it. they were dry, i took a chance and took a couple of the pods to try and grow from seed (i didn't even know what were the seeds). i let them dry in my house, shook them and sure enough these seed like things fell out. i planted them in the garden, marking were i did. they took all this time to start looking like a yucca so i guess you need patience. i only realized it was the yucca by the distinctive leaves. good luck...hope you get some seeds!!
if i am wrong with anything i have said here please correct me. as i said, i am very new to gardening. i see there are many VERY experienced gardeners that i am looking forward to learning from. lisa
I've been wondering about Texas Red Yucca and Texas Pink Yucca. They are both sold by High Country Gardens and listed hardy to at least zone 6 or zone 7. One wonders if they can take our wet? There may be a few truly insane easterners that have tried those species - the photos are beautiful. I've been tempted to call or email High Country, they may have an answer.
Hi: Yucca glauca is able to grow here in Zone 4, the Lake Champlain Valley of western Vermont. I have a few planted purchased at a nursery in Fargo, North Dakota, six years ago while on a car trip. I can't find them locally. Anyone have mail order source this plant? Thanks.
I planted two yucca rostrata's in Monmouth County approx. 3 years ago. They were purchased in Staten Island and were about 3 ft high at the time. They are now between 5-6 ft in height and doing fantastically. Winter does not phase them, and everyone who see's them absolutely loves them. I have a mini tropical paradise in my front yard.
Help, my yucca isn't doing well. I have had it for 5 yrs. It is the variety that has a very tall trunk with several medium size green plants growing off it. All of a sudden the leaves are all yellow and there seems to be black where the leaf meets the base. I didn't see any bugs.How can I save it?
It's best to keep yuccas out of extra moist locations. I've seen people have then in moist soil that is also irrigated, and I guess they can tolerate that, but a Yucca such as Y. Rostrata would probably prefer a well-drained soil that is more sand than regular soil.
If you have time, drive up north of Asbury Park, NJ, and I think the street is Ocean, but it may have another name. It's the street closest to the ocean where you pass all of hte fancy houses. If you are going north from Asbury, look to your right. There is one house in either Interlaken or Deal that has two large Yucca Rostrata plants (I think it's Y Rostrata, at least), and they are absolutely amazing. Proof that you can grow a "palm-looking" plant on the NJ shore with much success.
I'm hoping some one will answer this post, as I see the last post was two years ago.
I have a 9 year old Yucca in my landscaping. It was beautiful when it was small, but now, it is big. Husband cut off four new yuccas that grew from the bottom of the large one. What I want to know is, is there any way to stop it from producing new plants. And, since the four stumps are still in the ground, surrounding the adult one, are they growing to continue to grow? We are getting older and it was quite a lot of work for my husband to cut them out.

I am so pleased with this light fixture. It is simple, yet elegant....just what I was looking for. You would never guess it was not expensive. You will not be disappointed if you purchase this item.
Install problems.... The light base is not designed for a US ceiling electrical box. Had to drill a hole to make it work.. 2 hours is way too much time to spend to install a simple light..
The light fixture is a lovely, streamlined light fixture. We it in the hallway by the bathroom and I enjoy the clean, beautiful look.

"Fifty Shades of Grey" is drawing a lot of controversy way before film production date. Anticipation is heightened by casting rumours, with Matt Bomer being one of the most popular actors being cast by fans for the role of BDSM-dominant Christian Grey.
Meanwhile, "American Psycho" author Bret Easton Ellis stirred debate when he launched a one-man campaign against Bomer, saying he "comes off totally gay in White Collar" and it indicates he would not make a convincing straight sex demigod.
Bomer, who has long come out as gay, has not been officially tapped to play Christian Grey, but he has a strong following among the book's fans.
Here are Top 5 Reasons why Matt Bomer is one of the top Christian Grey candidates:
5. Dapper vibe. Bomer's sleek and elegant appeal in the series "White Collar" reconciles with the vibe exuded by Christian Grey. The way he walks and the way he talks tell a lot of fans that they are looking at Grey, and there is no better actor for the role.
4. "Mr. Sensitive" charisma. As con-man and art thief Neal Caffrey in White Collar, Bomer has proven he can play the sensitive masculine character and draw women into his arms with his charm and eloquence.
3. Enigma. Bomer can work on a mysteriously quiet and puzzling character all too well. He can come off with the kind of enigma that makes people wonder whether he is mostly dark or mostly positive deep inside.
2. Style plus substance. From vintage hats to branded suits and elegant leather shoes, Bomer always goes out in style in White Collar. His best friend in the series has also called him "Cheekbones," referring to one of his seductive facial features.
1. Deep blue eyes. Matt Bomer's blue eyes pierce through women's hearts like a straight arrow. The best trick in playing Christian Grey is to look deep into a woman's soul with just one look. Bomer can do that quite effectively.
The fact that Bomer is gay is not enough reason to dismiss him as a Christian Grey candidate. Above all, his acting chops would carry him through the role, and he does not have to be straight to prove he can act brilliantly.

Do these lilies have virus?
Could someone please help me decide whether the pictured lilies have virus or not?
The first two pictures feature the same Stargazer lily. At the time when the stem was short, the leaves were of nice dark green color. But within the last couple of weeks the new growth was getting lighter and lighter, so now I'm concerned... I have taken both the picture of the tip and the stem because except for the light color, the plant itself looks strong. I wonder whether it will stay strong though...
On the last picture I have Gold Stargazer, which was put into the ground just 1.5 weeks ago. Its leaves now have long yellowish bands.
Is this a clear indication of a virus, or could it be because of the hot weather (every day last week we had temperatures like 85-90F, but lilies were regularly watered in the mornings).
Dear erandr1,
I live in ny. the lilies i planted this year look exactly like yours. the ones that are next to them were established 4yrs ago & are very green. i think it's the weather. this happened to me before when i planted lilies in late may. i think they should be fine :) good luck .. jeanne

Ofelia Zepeda -Knowledge River Cohort 13
Submitted by Jane Mary Macaluso on Fri, 02/27/2015 - 08:48
When I first started Knowledge River, I was excited and unsure at the same time. I had just resigned from my somewhat steady job as a teacher to pursue a Master's Degree at a much larger university than I was accustomed (my undergraduate degree is from Northern Arizona University). I did not know what to expect, but was fairly certain I could handle the work load since I was used to late nights and never-ending piles of papers to grade. Graduate school is a lot of work, but it is enjoyable. When it is not as fun, I have my cohort for support.

The transmissions on this vehicle are sealed. You can not check the fluid levels. Mine had to be replaced at 65000 miles. It was done under warranty, but the lack of dealer support is getting trouble some. I had repeatedly asked my dealer to change the fluid and the filter to which they said it's not time on the schedule for that. Needless to say they are now defunct.

text: Just received this ... it will be my favorite cover-up for the coming season! The fabric is very nice quality not as sheer as I thought it would be (not see through at all). The print is even prettier in person. I usually wear an XL or OX. Ordered a 14-16 and when it came was marked OX. The straps are adjustable and tie in the middle back at the top. So you can adjust where the v neck in the front sits, high or low. Fabric is cut on the bias so there is some stretch and give. Very slenderizing!!!

This February, my preschoolers joined their peers across the country to celebrate Black History Month. Though we celebrate the accomplishments of African-Americans every week, that month is special. We engaged in a Black Musician Study, with students investigating instruments, genres, and artists, reading books on Black musical legends, and comparing their lives to our own. A lot of these books are set in the past and focus on the hardships of segregation and unfair treatment.
Recently, during a read aloud about Ray Charles and the challenges he faced as a person of color, one of my students exclaimed, "I don't like white people!" I seized this as an extremely important teachable moment. We went on to discuss why he felt that way, why his emotions were justified, and why he shouldn't discriminate or generalize an entire group of people, the way people had against Charles. We thought about people in our school who care about us, help us, and happen to have white skin. This reminded me that if three, four, and five-year olds are able to comprehend hatred and disgust, the pain that is soaring through older children and adults across the country, especially in light of recent events, could not be more searing.
In the face of these realities, we have no time to waste. This school year marked the first in which the majority of public school students are minorities. Our generation has a responsibility to work to ensure that each and every one of them is moving through a system that affirms their identities, shows them they're valued, and allows them access to the opportunities they have been denied for far too long.
While the "whites only" signs of the 60s have come down, the reality of separate and unequal endures. Alongside glaring gaps in educational, employment and economic opportunity, people of color in this nation face a variety of subtler, no less damaging assumptions. A successful black lawyer hears whispers of affirmative action. A young black boy on a corner is seen as "lurking," while his white peers "hang out." A black college student is asked to give "the black perspective" to a seminar full of white students who are never asked to speak on behalf of their entire race.
When my kids hear or see these injustices happen to the people they know and love, they think about what it means for their own futures. Recently, a male student in my class stated "I want dreads when I grow up," to which a female student responded "you gonna go to jail." My heart dropped. My co-teacher and I were shocked and saddened to see the stereotypes so internalized in these four- and five-year-old hearts. Leaving school that day, I knew I had to work even harder to affirm their self-worth and the value of our history.
I joined Teach For America to help students who look like me — plain and simple. But now that I'm in the classroom, I've found that my students are helping me just as much as I am helping them. At such a young age, they reflect the honesty and challenges of the world, and help me to understand how the world perceives people that look like me and how I perceive myself. They help me to recognize the magnitude of the educational inequity, lack of opportunities, and institutionalized racism across America. And they help me to see the importance of having caring, dedicated individuals fighting these injustices in the classroom.
We have a long way to go as a country before we truly achieve justice for all. To fix the systemic oppression that has created the gross inequality of the present will take the hard, dedicated work of countless leaders and changemakers. We must work toward these long-term changes as well as the immediate, urgent opportunities to change the way our students view themselves and their futures.
As teachers, we can play a central role in this. Every day, we can remind our kids that their thoughts, ideas, identities and opinions are important. We can share our own stories so that when our kids look to the front of the room, they see a little bit of themselves reflected back. We can remind them that they matter, that they always have and that they always will.

Demand better from chapters engaged in wrongdoing, but don't group all fraternities together
Last weekend, The national fraternity Sigma Alpha Epsilon (SAE) found itself at the center of controversy concerning misconduct by some of its members. A video capturing some of its members making racist chants has revived debates about the culture of college fraternities across the country.
A video surfaced on Youtube and Twitter depicting members of SAE's University of Oklahoma chapter chanting racial slurs against African Americans. The young men in the video chant "There will never be a n***** in SAE, You can hang 'em from a tree but they'll never sign with me, There will never be a n***** in SAE."
Their actions have provoked condemnation from various parties. Brad Cohen, the organization's national president, asserted that " "I was not only shocked and disappointed but disgusted by the outright display of racism in the video." David Boren the University of Oklahoma's president, called the video's contents "reprehensible and contrary to all of our values."
Outcry over the incident has progressed to constructive action as well. Students at the University of Oklahoma have protested on campus in the days following the video's release. The university has expelled two students found to have led the chant in the video.
Unfortunately, fraternities have been involved in reprehensible misconduct before. At times, this has involved racism and bigotry. In other cases, it has involved sexual assault or excessive hazing. In the eyes of some, these problems stem from faults within the overriding culture of fraternities themselves.
Yet it is important to note that not all Greek life organizations engage or tolerate such abhorrent actions. Nor can any one fraternity, SAE included, be broadly associated with hazing, racism, or sexual misconduct. To claim such would be unfair to individual fraternity chapters that instead demonstrate upstanding character.
Susan DuMont, who has worked as Coordinator of Student Life for UMBC's Greek life, pointed to her own experiences working with UMBC chapters to support this point. She pointed to UMBC's own SAE chapter as an example, saying that "the UMBC chapter of Sigma Alpha Epsilon certainly does not need to be taught not to use racially charged hate speech."
DuMont also emphasized the importance of diversity in UMBC's fraternities and sororities, saying that "Our Greek Community is almost exactly reflective of the diversity in the student body."
Across college campuses, many fraternities have worked to address and prevent the sort of wrongdoing that has surrounded their counterparts. The University of Utah's Phi Gamma Delta chapter recently met with Latino students to proactively discuss race and identity issues. At Dartmouth, fraternities have held campus forums to prevent campus sexual assault and have incorporated bystander intervention training into recruitment and rushing.
Other chapters have have gone beyond addressing on-campus issues and have expanded a constructive imprint in their communities. Many fraternities engage in service projects within their surrounding communities or focus their efforts to highlight ongoing social issues.
The solution to addressing misconduct among fraternities may not be to condemn or demand change from fraternities as whole. This unfairly groups all fraternities and their individual chapters together, regardless of their actual conduct. A more constructive strategy may be to demand greater accountability from chapters individually.
Campuses themselves may have a major role to play in this regard. As DuMont conceded, "the challenge is offering the education and intervention that each chapter needs and offices can only respond to what they know about." Student bodies then could foster the overriding culture that demands accountability from its Greek life organizations on each campus.
Advanced registration for classes can cause issues
Advanced registration too early for students who do not know class grades for planning of the next semester.
Planning in advance is a useful skill — practicing it means students are more prepared, and can make more practical decisions. However, advance planning without appropriate knowledge is useless. For UMBC students, this nightmare is cyclical, occurring every semester when the time comes to sign up for classes – and it's made more difficult by how early registration takes place.
Registration for the next semester takes place a little more than halfway through the semester. Many students have just barely taken the second exam in many of their classes. They more than likely don't have a good idea of the grade they will get in the class, nor do they know what their next semester's extra-curricular commitments are going to be.
The registrar's office at UMBC sends out the mass reminders to sign up for classes very early on in the semester, way before students can actually sign up for classes. All these registration reminders and the signing up for classes take place too early in the semester, leaving students nervous and still unprepared.
This semester, the reminders were sent out at the very beginning of March. Students are not allowed to register until the end of March or the beginning of April. This reminder is too far before the time that is necessary to talk to advisors.
This uncertainty makes it extremely difficult to predict what classes the student will need for the next semester. This means that all the advance planning in the world does not do much for the students beyond engendering frustration.
According to Steven Smith, university registrar, these policies are in place because, "there are things that students must do prior to the actual first registration date. For example, contacting the advisor, reviewing the degree audit, meeting with the advisor to get registration clearance, and reviewing the published course schedule prior to your registration appointment."
These things do not take a month. It seems like an allotted time span of a week or two would not only remedy some issues with student frustration, but by placing more rigid time constraints on students, it could help them remember to get all of these tasks done.
Smith said, "Registration at this time of the year allows students to deal with creating their schedules prior to the time-crunch that students face at the end of the term." And yet, students get annoyed with these policies more than they seem to help.
Rivka Arno, a freshman computer science major said, "it's really annoying. The signing up really early just makes things frustrating because it's so far in advance; your other plans for the next semester aren't yet in place. You don't know whether you'll have a different job, an internship or anything."
Advance planning is useful. It helps students manage their time better. However, too far in advance, it is unrealistic to expect students to predict classes and time management for the next semester. UMBC should consider pushing off registration, as well as delaying the reminders for registration.
Email scandal could spell trouble for Clinton's future
The timeline surrounding Hillary Clinton's email scandal details something of from an episode of House of Cards, and any political scandal ripe enough for good television doesn't spell good fortune for a presidential nominee.
On March 3, The New York Times revealed that Hillary Clinton has used a private email account for professional business in the past.
Upon swearing in as Secretary of State in 2009, she was informed by State Department that certain emails should be retained and official communication systems were not mandatory, but "preferred" as to dispel any suspicion regarding her business.
The private email (email@example.com, according to Gawker) was allegedly just as secure as her professional email. During a press conference on March 10, Clinton claimed that she "fully complied with every rule [she] was governed by."
"I did not email any classified material to anyone on my email," she said. "There is no classified material."
Since Sidney Blumenthal, a former aide to President Bill Clinton, uncovered the email address, speculation has arisen regarding what she could've used it for. To these, Hillary claims that "others had done it," a statement which brings speculation in onto itself. However, Mercury News recently revealed that she's "the first Secretary of State to have conducted all official government business on a private email address."
One can only imagine House of Cards characters Zoe Barnes and Lucas Goodwin exchanging emails with Blumenthal in a vaguely monochromatic office.
Clinton's scandal, reminiscent of a Frank Underwood fiasco, doesn't spell good news for her campaign in 2016. While some experts claim it may not affect her stance as a democratic nominee, this may force some voters to reconsider how well they know this potential leader of the free world.
Republicans and the far left have long criticized the Clintons for being largely self-serving and opportunistic, and this email scandal does nothing to soften these criticisms as Hillary's response only further fuels them.
Her vocal support of Israel's military operations in Gaza during the summer of 2014 and active pursuance of "capitalistic feminism" also helped paint this image of a conniving Hillary Clinton who's ultimately in this – whatever this may be – for herself. Two questions remain: What exactly did Clinton use this email for, and is a self-serving president fit for the White House?

Original Wingdigger - Compost Aerator Tool
Aerating your compost is critical to composting success. Each time you add fresh material to your Green Culture Compost bin push the Wingdigger™ straight down into the bacteria rich compost and pull it straight out. This action, with no bending or twisting, will deposit the material from the wings onto the fresh material. Repeat this action in several places around the top of the contents to spread the bacteria and keep the pile loose for air circulation.

Compost bins are specifically designed for holding compost and speeding the composting process, they require the pile to be tossed every so often. Kitchen composters are smaller units designed for quick use before transferring compost to a larger bin. Aearators are a type of bin that maximize the amount of air that can travel through the bin and compost, which further speeds the process. Tumblers allow you to spin or turn the compost around by easily moving the composter, which eliminates the need to manually turn it. Worm composters rely on the use of worms to produce the compost.

Determining Good Weight of Pygmy Goat
I went to a pumpkin patch/petting zoo today and while petting the goats with my GD I couldn't help but feel the protruding backbone on 3 of the goats and I could easily feel every rib. It was so bad I could grasp the spine with my hand and my fingers wrapped under it.
So, what is normal weight for these goats? I know some animals can appear thin yet be perfectly healthy and wonder if this is typical of the breed, or are they being starved.
Other than being skin and bones, they were alert and bright eyed and waiting for every morsel of food that came their way!
Yeah........those were my thoughts also jenny. I'll leave it in the hands of the humane society to determine if they're not being fed correctly.
I'm hoping they rescued these goats and they just haven't had time to put weight on them. The owners take in a lot of animals that have been cast-off/neglected.
I have two pygmy goats. I know I not suppose to do this, but I have large automatic gog feeder that hangs and I keep it full of feed all the time plus three bowls. I have them in with one small sheep. They are over a year old now and fat and happy. Don't really know what a healthy weight is for a pygmy is, but mine seem happy and very active. The billy is probably about 60 pounds and the nanny is about 55. The little sheep girl that I have I think was stunted because she was sick when I bought her and didn't know it. She is about 75 pounds but the size of the goats. They play together all the time and love to be petted or for you to run with them. I would call the humane society on the petting zoo people. They seem really underfed to me. I sure most of those places do not feed their animals, only what they get from the people that are visiting.

Not as cute in person
By Javarah
from Seattle, WA
About Me Comfort-oriented, Practical, Stylish
This looked like a great casual top for wear with pants, leggings or skirts, and I am always looking for pretty things in blue, so I made it my first purchase from JL.The color is faded out - not bright as it appears online. The size, as other reviewers have mentioned, is HUGE! I am usually a 14 on top and a 16 for hips; I sized down to a Medium and the top still falls off of me. With safety pins, I won't flash my chest, but the waist also falls at an odd spot, so I don't plan to wear it out of the house - completely unflattering.The material is soft and sturdy, and will probably wear well, but the cut & color are not as presented.I'm disappointed, but I'll keep the top for sleepwear. I don't think I'll buy anything else from JL - the design quality & style does not match the online presentation.

About Me Comfort-oriented, Stylish, Trendy
The surplice fit around bust is too loose and I have to wear a cami or tank under it. This can be a bad thing because it makes the top too hot to wear but maybe this will be good when weather is colder. I have noticed that Ellos clothes are often not what I expect, in a bad way.

Soft and warm

About Me Conservative, Practical, Stylish
The gathers of thick velour at empire waist made me look heavier so I adorned the top with the black wide elastic leather bow belt (sold here) placing it over the bulky gathers and with a sparkly necklace, and black pants and boots (also wore with jeans) it made a nice outfit. Wore it out on cold night and I was very comfortable and warm.
too big, darn it!

Very nice top

About Me Stylish
I love this top. It does run a bit large so I reordered it one size down. It is very flattering and I received a ton of compliments when I wore it to work. It's a great length to wear with leggings or jeans. This top is a must have. Originally I ordered the red color but when I reordered I got the gray. Much happier with the gray.
Great Top!!

New Jersey, Megan's Home, Limits 'Her' Law
By ROBERT HANLEY
Published: January 5, 1998
Months ago, Alaska posted a list of its 1,600 paroled sex offenders on the World Wide Web. California provides information on about 64,000 offenders on CD-ROM at any county sheriff's office or big-city police department. And three months ago, Connecticut began letting local police stations release the names, addresses and pictures of paroled offenders to anyone who calls.
But in New Jersey, the state that inspired the nationwide movement for public warnings about the presence of sex offenders, information is held far more tightly.
Since New Jersey's community-notification law was hurriedly enacted in 1994 amid the outcry that followed the killing of Megan Kanka of Hamilton Township, it has faced an onslaught of constitutional challenges, and nearly three years of review and revision by Federal and state judges.
Indeed, the original ''Megan's Law'' is soon to emerge from legal limbo as one of the most restricted in the nation, with tight limits on which offenders are identified, who has access to the information and how those facts may be passed on.
By the end of this month, when most of New Jersey's 21 county prosecutors are expected to begin issuing names and addresses of offenders, only about 600 parolees will be listed, those classified as posing a moderate or high risk of committing new sex crimes. That total is about one-third of all classified offenders; the two-thirds considered low risk are free from any notification requirement.
And unlike other states, New Jersey will allow only a relatively few people, those approved by state judges, to learn about the moderate- and high-risk offenders.
For offenders considered to be the most dangerous, some neighbors will receive judges' clearances to get the warnings, but others will not.
For offenders deemed moderate risks, school superintendents and principals, and maybe some security guards, will be alerted. But they cannot legally pass that information on to schoolchildren or their parents. Leaders of Scout troops and coaches of youth teams can be told, but not the children they oversee. Operators of women's shelters and day-care centers are legally entitled to receive warnings, but not the women or children in their care.
Also, those who are approved by judges to get the alerts risk contempt-of-court citations if they pass the information to those who are not.
New Jersey's limited warnings are to start now that a Federal court ban on them has lapsed and state judges are ready to begin hearings to define the scope of the notifications.
Of the 47 states that have some type of notification law, nearly all give information more freely than New Jersey. A recent analysis by the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children in Arlington, Va., suggests that only the laws in Michigan and Virginia are as restricted as New Jersey's.
New York State's law provides for a directory, available at local police stations, listing offenders considered to have the highest risk of committing new sex crimes. It lists them alphabetically by county. New York's law also creates a 900 telephone number at $5 a call, giving biographical material and ZIP codes, but no home addresses, for moderate- and high-risk offenders. But use of both the directory and 900 number have been blocked by a Federal court at least until the United States Supreme Court decides whether to hear a challenge to the constitutionality of New York's Law by the Legal Aid Society.
New York's Attorney General, Dennis C. Vacco, and Connecticut's Attorney General, Richard Blumenthal, both favor putting the names of offenders in their states on the Internet sometime in the future. In New Jersey, that would be illegal.
New Jersey's law sped through the Legislature in the fall of 1994, after the murder of Megan Kanka, 7, that July by a twice-convicted child molester who lived across the street. The original law included townwide alerts about the most dangerous offenders. Some were made in early 1995, and a few of them led to cases of harassment and vigilantism.
That summer, the New Jersey Supreme Court upheld the constitutionality of the law. But it ordered an end to the townwide notifications and imposed the restrictions now taking effect. The court's goal was to strike a balance between giving information to some members of the public to protect themselves, and preserving the privacy rights of offenders who had finished prison terms.
The court permitted notifications only to those ''likely to encounter'' a paroled sex offender, based on their nearness to the offender's home or workplace or an establishment the offender frequented. The ruling limited the notifications about moderate-risk offenders to school officials and the owners or operators of community establishments that have custody of women and children or care for them.
For high-risk offenders, these establishments may get warnings, as well as schoolchildren and their parents and immediate neighbors.
But these warnings now cover only about one-third of New Jersey's paroled offenders. Of the 1,939 that county prosecutors have evaluated for potential risk, only 47, or 2.4 percent, are classified as high risks and subject to the widest warnings. Another 585, or 30.2 percent, are deemed moderate risks. The remaining 1,307, or 67.4 percent, are low risks. Only law enforcement officials can receive information about them.
New York State, on the other hand, has classified 71 percent of its paroled offenders, or 4,738 of 6,637, as moderate or high risks and subject to warnings to the public.

Film Review
Cloud Atlas
Time-hopping sci-fi tale soars—but how high?
By Devin D. O'Leary
Among the books often labeled unfilmable is David Mitchell's 2004 sci-fi hexaptych Cloud Atlas. Somebody finally decided to wrestle that tiger, though, and the results are structurally (if not always emotionally) miraculous—a $100 million genre-hopping art house blockbuster in search of a sympathetic audience.
Reel World
By Devin D. O'Leary
Louie's Rock-N-Reels, Albuquerque's longtime purveyor of awesome movie memorabilia, suffered a break-in late last month. Owner Louie Torres says several of his most prized items disappeared during the burglary. This is lousy news and not just because it takes money from the pockets of a hardworking local businessman. It also deprives Albuquerque's movie fans of the opportunity to purchase their own piece of movie history.

Mainau Things to Do
Swedish tower
At the south-west side of the crest of the island, quite near the botanical wine trail and the arboretum, is the Swedish Tower. In the old days it probably served as a watchtower for the castle towards the mainland. The date 1558, above the entrance door, tells us something about its period of origin, as well as the arms of the Teutonic Order and...more
Archway House
The Archway House is located at the entrance of the castle area. It was presumably built by Franz Anton Bagnato, the son of the castle architect. The date 1764 and the coat of arms of the country commander Count Königsegg indicate that. The classical annex goes back to the 19th century. In the old days the moat ran directly along the building....more
Castle of the Teutonic Order
The Castle of the Teutonic Order was built between 1739 and 1746 according to the plans and under the supervision of Johann Caspar Bagnato. In spite of limited resources, a highly balanced, symmetrical castle construction of great harmony was created. The arms of the two side wings open to the mainland in the shape of a horseshoe, while the broad...more
Castle Church St. Marien
Together with the castle, the Church St. Marien forms a unique baroque ensemble which ranks among the most splendid historical places of interest of Lake Constance. Inside the church you find a solemn yet cheerful world of sculptures, frescos and stucco. No wonder the castle church provides an atmospheric setting for weddings and for church and...more
Gardener´s Tower
The Gardener´s Tower, also called Peel Tower, recounts the Mainau history of the Middle Ages and the 19th century. In co-operation with the Bodenseestiftung (Lake Constance Foundation) the Mainau has etablished a modern information centre. Impressive: the multivision with amazing pictures of the scenery of Lake Constance and its outlook for the...more
House of Butterflies
Place where thousands of butterflies fly freely around you, sometimes they even get on your head or shoulder... however, hurting or hunting them is forbidden!!!!more
Floral Fiesta
Everywhere you look, flowers. Beautiful flowers... Tulips, roses, daffodils, lilies, and many others with names I do not know, but well worth mentioning.more
Butterfly House
While on the island, be sure to stop in and see the Butterfly House. It's a large greenhouse with all sorts of (I think) tropical plants and flowers. But best of all, there are hundreds of beautiful butterflies flying around. Put out your hands and some of the butterflies will even land on your fingers.more
Mainau Island Park
These are pleasant gardens to stroll through. There are excellent views of Bodensee (Lake Constance). Admission is €11.90 for adults and €3.90 for children aged 6 to 15. It is open every day from 07:00 to 20:00.There are the flowers to see, a "Children's Land", and a toddler's playground called "Zwergendorf". There are restaurants on site.more
The duck (flowers)
Right after entering the island (after paying the ticket), you have the first opportunity to take some pictures with the big ducks made from flowers, or the big five meter high flower, made also from flowers, or the big pea-cock withe a great tail made also from flowers.more
Bridge to Mainau
From Konstanz one can take the bus to the Mainau Island, the bus leave you at few meters from the bridge that you will cross to enter the world of flowers. This is a narrow bridge, giving you views of the Lake Constance and the Mainau Island.more
No trouble on the lake
What a life. All the time in the world. To stay still is a real exhibit of luxury to me. To stay still on a lake in a boat is pure arrogance :) No really, great stuff.more
Have a tour around.....

Flower Island Mainau: Tulips, Roses,...
Located as a small island within the Lake of Constance (Bodensee) is the beautiful flower Island of Maina (Blumeninsel Mainau).It is a small island you can easily surround by foot in one hour, allthough only about half of the island is publically accessible. The Webpage of the Island is just great, including all the information you need.Here an...more
Mainau Castle
This is not your typical castle. For one thing, the family of Count Bernadotte lives there, which means it's not jus a museum but an actual vacation home. Guests are also welcome to visit exhibitions, the castle café and other events. In June/July they have classical concerts, in December a Christmas tree, and sometimes welcome important guests.more
the Palm House
From spring to autumn the palm house is standing here, architecturally interesting and an oasis in the cold time of year. More than 20 different sorts of palm trees and a valuable collection of exotic plants can be seen here. Among them a Canary Island date palm (Phoenix canariensis), more than 15 meters high, which was planted in 1888. It offers...more
Rose Garden
This was definitely my favorite part of the island because I love roses. They extend from the castle terrace over the curved staircase to the Italian garden. The strictly geometrical garden with pergolas, sculptures and fountains is mainly devoted to the nobler sorts of roses of both older and new cultivation. Floribunda and polyantha roses give...more
Arena of fountains
During the warm season a lot of tropical plants line the way to the arena of fountains: a White Bird of Paradise (Strelitzia nicolai) and the Trumpet Vine (Campsis grandiflora), a climbing small wood which from July on shows its beautiful orange blossoms. A nice artistic touch is created by the bronze sculpture of a bird which was given as a...more
The arboretum was founded by the Grand Duke Friedrich I. Due to his special liking for rare woody plants from all over the world the first exotic trees arrived on the Mainau shortly after he had acquired the island in 1853. Today the tree collection of the Mainau consists of more than 500 different kinds of deciduous trees and conifers. It makes...more
Butterfly House
Mainau has Gernmany's largest butterfly house. It's a beautiful, tropical preserve that houses more than 25 types of butterflies. It's an extraordinarily peaceful place. In display cases you can watch them emerge from their cocoons and in the rest of the area they are free to inhabit as they like. Don't miss the Butterfly Bistro either, if you're...more

Most small- and medium-sized businesses haven't yet fully recognized the value of pay-per-click, but interested prospects can swell the ranks over the next year.
Small- and medium-sized businesses (SMEs) are beginning to buy their way into the paid search market, according to a report from The Kelsey Group and ConStat, but the majority haven't yet recognized the importance of pay-per-click (PPC) pricing. The collaborative study revealed that only a small portion of SMEs are currently involved in PPC, but there is potential for a substantial number to join the ranks over the next year.
Culled from the responses of 460 advertising decision makers at small- and medium-sized enterprises, the survey found that 11 percent were currently involved in PPC, and 34 percent were interested in using PPC. Nearly three-quarters (73 percent) of the interested prospects expect to implement PPC within the next year.
Greg Sterling, director of The Kelsey Group's Digital Directories: Interactive Local Media Continuous Advisory Service, commented on the inspiration for SMEs to utilize PPC: "In our sample, which has a comparatively small number of actual PPC users, but a larger number that are 'interested in' it (combined total of these categories was 200), the attraction appears to be the perception that PPC will drive traffic to company Web sites and that it's a low-cost method of acquiring customers."
Paid search players have been working on ways to bring SMEs, and especially local businesses, into the ranks of their advertisers. Most recently, FindWhat.com teamed with Verizon SuperPages.com to introduce PPC pricing to the Internet yellow pages site. Google is beta testing features that let advertisers target their ads by region, and Overture is working on local search that involves targeting by radius.
Sterling found that SMEs are primarily interested in using PPC to drive traffic to Web sites, with two-thirds of respondents claiming traffic as the major reason to implement the program. More than half (56 percent) cite the low cost of PPC, while 52 percent believe PPC is a less expensive method for acquiring customers.
The majority of respondents — 43 percent — indicated they weren't interested in PPC at all, while 12 percent were unsure. Sterling cites the perception that PPC is a niche activity, as 60 percent of those who were not interested believed paid search was not appropriate for their businesses.
Despite current misperceptions, PPC captures 23 percent of advertising budgets, and the survey found evidence that 54 percent of PPC users expect to increase their paid search activities over the next year.
Currently, SMEs that are using PPC have little need for outside management resources as 48 percent are using only one general message for all ads, and updating it infrequently.
"Only 20 percent [of respondents" expressed an interest in or were using outside administrators. However, as PPC expands beyond this population of 'early adopters,' there will be a definite need, in our view, for outside help to create and manage campaigns. This is especially true of traditional small businesses that have historically relied on 'offline' forms of advertising such as newspaper classifieds and print yellow pages," Sterling noted.
