ROCKY HARBOUR, N.L. - News that the Royal Ontario Museum is reassessing plans to deal with a second giant blue whale carcass in western Newfoundland puts the town of Rocky Harbour in an awkward spot, says Mayor Walter Nicolle.
"We haven't done much looking into it because we assumed it was all taken care of up to now," he said Monday in an interview. "We just got news today they might not be taking it."
Federal Fisheries Minister Gail Shea announced May 1 that the museum in Toronto would preserve up to two skeletons along with tissue samples of the rare and endangered species.
Mark Engstrom, deputy director of collections and research for the museum, said he's reviewing his budget after unexpected costs.
He said he'll likely decide Tuesday whether his team can begin work on the second whale lying close to the fish plant in Rocky Harbour. If not, he'll discuss options with local officials.
"It might be that they want to move it. But the question is, where?" Engstrom said. "It's very difficult to dismantle the whale, so it's not a simple matter to dispose of it."
Engstrom's team continued Monday to dismember a 23-metre female blue whale near Woody Point, N.L.
It's one of nine Northwest Atlantic blue whales believed to have been crushed or drowned in unusually thick sea ice earlier this spring.
Work to remove and pack the whale's delicate skull, expected to be about nine metres long, was to wrap up Tuesday on schedule five days after the messy project began.
The museum is labelling each bone and preserving samples that will be trucked to Ontario and later available to global scientists. A future exhibit of an intact skeleton may be possible if money is available, Engstrom has said.
Municipal leaders in the prime tourism zone of Gros Morne National Park asked for help to deal with the huge carcasses after the federal government said it wasn't responsible.
Nicolle said Rocky Harbour, a community of about 1,000 people, hasn't got a budget for much.
"The only thing we can do is try to get it out of where it's to now and just pull it into a cove somewhere outside the community that's not accessible to people. And then we won't get the smell so bad."
The stink of a rotting whale is a lingering, putrid odour that is hard to exaggerate.
Some regional business leaders and residents would like to see at least one of the skeletons kept for a future display in the park already famous for its hiking trails.
"It's marvellous if they've got the funds to do it," Nicolle said. "But I mean there's no funds around to do that stuff."
The total population of the Northwest Atlantic blue whale was estimated at just 250 before the deaths this spring off Newfoundland.
Commercial whaling cut historic numbers of the majestic creatures — the largest animals on the planet — by 70 per cent. Their numbers remain low due to noise pollution, marine contaminants and collisions with ships, says the federal Fisheries department website.
Anthony Butt can see the remains of the Rocky Harbour whale from where he works at the Harbour Seafoods fish market.
"My first thought when I saw it was what a shame that such a lovely, large animal has gone to waste. But I'd like to see it go somewhere and be preserved so that people all around the world can see it."

To elucidate the specific associations of insects with glandular plants, the relationship between a plant bug and a wild azalea was examined. The plant bug Orthotylus gotoi Yasunaga (Hemiptera: Miridae) was found only on shrubs of Rhododendron macrosepalum Maxim. (Ericaceae) in Kyoto, central Japan. R. macrosepalum has leaves, stems, and sepals with dense stalked glands that trap and kill many arthropods. However, nymphs and adults of O. gotoi are able to move freely on R. macrosepalum. O. gotoi frequently fed on carcasses of various arthropods trapped on R. macrosepalum, whereas it rarely fed upon plant tissues. In laboratory experiments, O. gotoi nymphs mainly fed on the carcasses of insects, which resulted in enhanced rates of growth and metamorphosis, and adult O. gotoi lived longer when they were provided with insect carcasses. These observations and experiments suggest that O. gotoi is a scavenger. Therefore, if O. gotoi mainly feeds on carcasses of arthropods, this may result in a specific dependence on the glandular plant. © 2006 The Linnean Society of London, Biological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2006, 88, 593–602.

How long will used dsc range last?
I am in the market for a new range and am thinking of getting a nicer used one. My budget is $1000. I found a 30" 4 burner dcs for $750 on craigslist. The man says its 4 years old and works great. 4 years is a bit older than I want, but $750 seems like a good price. How long should I expect this range to last?
There is no way of knowing. Is it gas or electric oven? How much has it been used? Has it had any repairs? Have you read online reviews on this model? Read the users manual, usually available online. Look over the interior very well with a flashlight to see if the enamel is intact. Is it hooked up now so that you can check it out to see if it runs and if the oven is working and you can check the temperature with an independent thermometer. Is it possible to have someone who knows about appliances check it out? $750 seems high. Appliances the last several years are not what they used to be.
If it's an all gas range, it's likely to outlast your kitchen. If it's a dual fuel, with electronics and such, there's no way of knowing how long before it may need a repair, but 4 years for a range is not that old. I'd spend $750 in a heartbeat for the DCS, rather than what's available new for $1000.
Here is the pic from the craigslist post. It is about an hour away, so I haven't seen it in person yet and the man selling it doesn't have the model #. I can't find any others on the internet that are 4 burners and 30 inch. Do you think it's actually older?
Also, he said it is all gas.
Yup, I suspect it's a lot older - at least 12 years old and probably even older. Can you get the serial number and check with DCS. I'm sure there's a plate on the range with the model and serial number on it - the seller may be concealing that info from you.
It's not as old as my 36" - back when DCS still had open burners. For what it's worth, the stove is still chugging. I recently replaced the oven igniter and that's been the only repair now 15 years or so.
But yes, the seller should be able to find the model and serial number. On mine it's behind the kickplate.
It's worth a look, if the seller will come down.
Weissman has been contributing on DCS ranges here for many years and is generally regarded as an authority. I recommend you heed the advice.
To me, the picture looks like the models that DCS had back in the 1990s. I suspect the model number might be RG304 or RGU304 or RGU-304. Rather than 4 years old, maybe more like 14 years old?
Try searching on eBay and elswehere to see what the going prices are. For all I know, the eBay prices might be higher, but I'd still be wary of a guy who won't give you a model number and represents this stove as "4 years old."
Beyond that, though, an older gas stove has its attractions for the right person. Be aware of competing considerations: while there is not much to go wrong with it (the attraction), it still will need maintenance type work and you need to be sure you can get the parts (the potential downside.) . Much like replacing spark plugs and changing oil filters in a car, a gas stove will eventually need new ignitors for the top burners and oven glowbars and maybe a door gasket or oven burner element.
Not sure I'd put much faith in a representation that a CL seller has the parts to hand. I would want to verify parts availability for myself. I'd do the same thing if I were looking at a "vintage" Chambers, Wedgewood, Merritt & O'Keefe, etc.
Also, there was a thread like this on a used RG304 about five years ago, and I've linked to it below. I think the poster, StacyinMaine might be now be posting as stacyneil. FWIW, I think she wound up buying an NXR, instead. Costco.com had them for $1799 until a few weeks ago, and then bumped the price back to the standard $1999. Doubtless, the price will come back down to $1799 at some point, but it is hard to say when.. Either way, though, that is twice your budget.
Have you looked at the Frigidaire Gallery Series FGGF3054M, an all gas range which nonetheless has a third element "true" convection oven. Deeageaux suggested this to several folks some months ago in a thread on gas stoves for those with a $1k budget. IIRC, the painted versions of the stove go for about $850 and the stainless versions for about $100 more. Might want to check into that for the upcoming President's Day sales because the prices could be significantly less..

Ive got an issue where when i connect my external hard drive, it does not show in my computer. It is showing in Disk Management as Unallocated, but if the device is connected when i turn my laptop on, then it will show in my computer.
When i am connecting a memory stick, I get a message saying do you want to format the drive.
I have uninstalled all USB Hosts/Hubs in Device Manager but the issue remains.
If i connect both devices to a different machine, they work straight away so the issue must be with my laptop. Ive checked my laptop for Viruses and it is clean.

This 2" x 12" Copper Pot Still Head comes with Shotgun Condenser that is 24" and a Commercial grade thermometer with a 3" face. This also comes with the 2" tri clamp and gasket for attaching the column to your still. All of our Copper Heads and Columns are Tig welded using Food Grade DHP Copper Welding Rod. This means that the welds are as strong or stronger than the surrounding metal. This DHP copper Rod melts at around 1,700° F while the Solder that our competitors use melts at around 400°F. Solder joints are not nearly as strong as our welds, plus solder is messy, runs and gets all over the metal, while our welds are tight, clean and pretty. This copper pot still head has a 2" stainless tri clamp ferrule that will attach to a sanke type beer keg or any of our 3 to 8 gallon boilers. The condenser is detachable and can handle anything that you throw at it. This column will clamp directly to any Sanke Beer Keg. The keg is not included.

Tablet. Hotels for Global Nomads

Crosby Street Hotel
79 Crosby Street, New York City, NY, USA
Neighborhood: Manhattan - Soho
Check availability as rates may vary for dates. Best rate guaranteed.
In general it's true that we're skeptical about the idea of hotel chains. But we tend to forget our principles when we're talking about the Firmdale group. Their six London hotels are six of the best hotels anywhere, and they can't help but be similar; aside from the obvious fact that they all share the same city, they all just as obviously share the same general philosophy of what a hotel ought to be — which they owe to their owners, Tim and Kit Kemp. And a part of that is visual, a natural family resemblance based on their all having been decorated by the very recognizable Kit.
Now if we didn't greatly admire the (smallish, intimate, service-oriented) Firmdale philosophy, and consider ourselves huge fans of Ms. Kemp's design style, we might be less excited about a London-based mini-chain expanding into New York. But a hotel like Crosby Street is exactly what this city needs. The contrast between the downtown grit of the cobblestone street outside and the plush sophistication of the hotel's lobby is immediate, and striking. Say what you will about the bright colors and the decidedly un-minimal décor — it's a rare New York boutique these days that presents so opinionated a face to the world.
This year, more than most, hotels are clambering over one another to slash costs and look adequately humble. What's so appealing about Crosby Street, and the Firmdale approach in general, is that they're unapologetic about the fact that theirs is a decidedly high-end offering. There's something inherently a little bit decadent in the very idea of paying money for a place to sleep, after all, and while Crosby Street isn't exactly conspicuous consumption of the champagne-in-the-bathtub variety, it's by no means a hard time either — and the confidence shows, right down to the smallest detail.

What I liked:
The location is great, the design pleasant and colorful. The very large windows in the room are great.
What the hotel could do better:
The staff in the restaurant are unfriendly and not efficient, the hotel definitely needs to address this issue. There was a lot of attitude from most of the staff and we did not get a smile in five days. Also had trouble with room service (45 mn to get a granola and a coffee, no apologies offered). While this is a small hotel that wants to be a home away from home, we did not always feel welcome and are not sure we would go back because of this.

Dog sitting for the next 4 days --ugh !
Our son is going hunting with DH for the next 4 days . I love dogs , but I have to admit , I'm getting older & I can't keep up with young dogs anymore!!!
Bullit is a year old ....Border Collie & Sheltie . This dog could play 24 hours a day. He's like a 2 year old kid on crack. LOL ...... Hell on 4 legs. When he's not playing , he's whining for you to go play with him . ugh .........
Except for too much energy -- he's a great dog.
I'm definately getting too old for this !! LOL
Did you ever have a dog that just wore you out ?
While we were young, my parents always owned BIG dogs. Years later - after we were all grown and gone, and our Labs long gone as well, my Mom, now in her 70's, wanted a daschund. We surprised her for her birthday with a daschund puppy. She loves him to death, however whenever she comes to visit, I count the moments until he is gone, LOL. CONSTANT BARKING FROM THE TIME HE ARRIVES UNTIL THEY LEAVE. To think I brought this upon myself ;0)
So does Bullit have that intense border collie stare? My second sheltie was a ball playing nut. She didn't care if she ate, hated to go on walks, but loved her toys.
So get you a chuck-it (ball throwing apparatus), a low sided box (a place for him to drop the ball), a lawn chair, and a glass of wine. The dog can retreive to his hearts content and after a little (or a lot) of wine, everyone will be mellow and ready for some relaxation. LOL!
That's too funny housefairy. My BC Bo has to have somewhere to put the ball, too. For some reason he likes to put the ball on his bed, on a blanket, on the mat by the front door (whichever is closest to me.) Does not like to put it on the ground near me or it might "get away". I'll try the low box and wine thing next. My life has been much easier with the chuck-it - he doesn't beg, he just crouches, stares at the ball, glances at me, stares at the ball, glances at me with the stereotypical BC focus until I give in. I can tell him "leave it" and he'll go lie down, but still keep his eyes on the ball :) I have to physically put it away to end the "game".
Luckily Bo has an "off" switch. (Something I made sure of before I adopted him) Those BC's without one really need an incredible amount of activity. Hang in there, it's really great your son has a safe place to leave him while he's gone.
I'm desperate and dumb. what's a chuck-it...I have a 4-1/2 dog that is OCD about toys, fetch, squeaky, games. Goes 12 -14 hours a day if I allow. I'm too old for her constant games but she's so cute when she looks with those little brown eyes asking, "please!".
So where can I get a " chuck-it"
and thanks
Simpleme all the pet stores sell them. My sheltie angel was very specific about what balls she liked, so I never used the ball that came with it. She was also very devoted to specific toys. She loved opening her presents at Christmas.
The Chuck-It is a long slightly curved plastic stick with a ball holder on the end. If you google "chuck it" you will get lots of hits.
TooMuchGlass there was a BC at the park the other day with the blue eyes. Now talk about an intense stare. Lets just say he was incredibly focused as he was also playing ball.
Here is a link that might be useful: Picture of a
I second the vote for the 'Chuck-It'. What a simple thing that is a great dog exerciser! My only problem now with two large labs is that the one who always gets the ball won't drop it for fear of the other getting it. She waits until he gets tired of waiting and goes away, then she drops it. Wish I could figure out what to do about that.
You know what improves a chuck-it? A teenage boy (preferably a pitcher or quarterback) and a LARGE Backyard. Pay the kid $20 for two hours of ball chucking. :)
carmen_grower ... Two balls?
Oh Wow, folks, you may have just save my old arthritic shoulder. She will love this. I bought a gun that shoots little balls but she's dented all the ping pong balls. She's a chipeke and only weighs 4 1/2 lbs but she's ruthless when it come to something she can fetch.
thanks, I'm going to pick up one on the way home from church tomorrow..
I See so many people using that at the dog park !! It throws so much farther than our old arms can !
What agreat invention !!!!
I'll throw the ball for Bullit --- he'll fetch it --- then won't let me have it. LOL He teases me . Gets close then runs away & drops it. Crazy guy !

DEFINITION of 'Rehabilitation Tax Credit '
A federal tax incentive to encourage real estate developers to renovate, restore and reconstruct old buildings. Buildings placed in service before 1936 are eligible for a 10\% credit, and certified historic structures are eligible for a 20\% credit. The credit applies to the building's rehabilitation costs, but not to the cost of purchasing the building or to repairing sidewalks, parking lots and landscaping. The credit amount increases slightly if the building is also located in a specific disaster area.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Rehabilitation Tax Credit '
The taxpayer must also meet requirements regarding the rehabilitation project timeframe and completion date to claim the credit. Enlargement and reconstruction projects are not eligible for the tax credit, and tax-exempt properties also do not qualify. Only the title holder of the property can claim the credit. Some states also offer rehabilitation tax credits to encourage redevelopment.

Kitty Miller is living the dream. OK, so maybe her life isn't picture-perfect according to society's standards; it's 1962, and she's an unmarried woman. But after a failed long-term relationship, Kitty has come to accept that life isn't always meant to be as we imagine. Instead of being married with kids, she and her best friend, Frieda, own a bookshop in Denver. They're not rich—in fact, sometimes it's hard to make ends meet—but the pair is so close they refer to one another as Sister. It's a good life.

Her mother's old friend, Mrs. Jelphs, is the housekeeper at the empty manor, and she promises to keep watch over Alice, who has concocted a cover story of a recently deceased husband.

A chance discovery of an old biography at The Strand inspired journalist Alix Christie's debut novel, Gutenberg's Apprentice, which tells the story of the invention of moveable type and the printing of the Gutenberg Bible. In this essay, Christie explains how her lifelong love of letterpress printing left her uniquely suited to fictionalize this remarkable true story.
Feminist, columnist, activist, humorist, memoirist—Caitlin Moran is a woman of many descriptors. She can now add "novelist" to that list: How to Build a Girl goes on sale this week. Something of a roman à clef, this hilarious, poignant and no-holds-barred coming-of-age tale stars a girl from a council estate in the Midlands who, like Moran herself, became a rock critic at a young age.

Oscar Peterson: a 'coloured boy with amazing fingers'
Oscar Peterson was a giant in every sense of the word. Standing well over six feet tall, he'd even been mistaken for a football player. But there's no mistaking his brilliance on the keyboard. His dazzling technique combined with his swinging style made the Montreal native, as one critic remarked, the best damn jazz pianist in the whole world. Oscar Peterson died on December 23, 2007. He was 82.
At age 14 he wins a national amateur contest put on by the CBC. Three years later Peterson begins playing with the Johnny Holmes Orchestra, Montreal's most popular swing band. Since Peterson is the only black musician in the group, he becomes an easy target for racists. One such encounter takes place at Montreal's Ritz-Carlton Hotel.
The orchestra was booked in advance to play but at the last minute the hotel objects to its "coloured pianist."
When Holmes threatens to take out ads condemning the Ritz-Carlton for its racist policies, the hotel backs down. The gig goes on as planned.
Despite such incidents, Peterson blossoms musically in the group. Under Holmes's guidance he polishes what he calls his "diamond in the rough" technique.
Holmes helps Peterson develop a personal style, pushing him to go on beyond his technical genius.
• Peterson dropped out of high school to pursue a career in music. When he told his father of his decision Daniel Peterson said he'd allow it if Oscar promised to become the best.
• Two months after the performance at the Ritz-Carlton, Peterson married Lillie Fraser. He was 19; she was 17.

Should onions be mulched?
gwtamaraJanuary 1, 2013
The bulbs need air and sunlight. Mulching next to the plant is not recommended. In most cases onions do not handle mulching very well, onions like to have their tops exposed to the air. Mulching also increases the risk of the bulbs rotting.

Whats new in the pach in October
I wish the crazy weather would decide,either stay hot or cold. The past 2 days the weather has been fall like in So.Cal.
Here is whats going on the patch during the first week of Oct.
Update on my water rooted Firestorm Cutting...its been 7 days as of today being potted up in soil after the water rooting process. The claws are already glistening and standing up:
Close up of the claws:
JJ's J105 blooming the first time this season:
DSP going strong still since June:
JL Hawaiian Sunset first blooms this seaon:
Hong Kong still blowing up, one of the first to bloom in June and will bloom as long as the day temps are in the 60's and the leaves stay on till the new ones come up next season unless I cut them off....AMAZING Plumie:
Newly root pruned and transplanted Violet Star still blooming even after her surgery:
Great looking blooms.
well here everything is getting sleepy. Cold front is came in last night and over the weekend we will have days in the 50's and a couple nights dropping to mid 30's. Next week will be back to 70's. No more blooms for me however my NOID white bloomed last year in late october so I still have hope.
the greenhouse frame is done just need to get the 6mil on it, hook up the heater and some lights. Hopefully I can find time this weekend between birthday party, church, and my sons baseball tryouts.
Thanks for the update on Firestorm. Looks like she's doing great. Guess what? I finally stuck my Psycho in the water like you said 3 days ago. Not much is happening but she's not dead either so that's something right? LOL.
Your J105 is gorgeous! But I must say JL Hawaiian Sunset is STUNNING!! I must admit I have a thing for veins and curled petals. Sigh... adding that to my wishlist for next year. Hope all is well with you. TTYL!
If you have lights up and a heater you may have growth and flowers blooming from old inflos. So you may still have some blooms during the winter if the light and heat is enough. Look at it this way plumies are like babies, when they go to sleep thats when you will have more free time to do what you want..lol
Cheers Mark
Nice to see you posting again, been awhile...lol Give Psycho a bit, but I know Psycho is a hearty plumie and roots easily so I would not worry too much about her and it may take 2 weeks to see anything go on with her.
It's been in the mid to low 70's in my patch this week so the colors are not what they should be, but Oct sometimes can be the hottest month so keep your fingers crossed. JL Hawaiian Sunset is actually very pretty when there is heat with bright colors, huge blooms and veining, but it is leggy.
Well hope your doing well and your plumies? Did you plant your Budha Raksa?
Great photos, James!
Next year I will be trying the water rooting. If fall hadn't have come so quickly, too quickly, I would already have bought more cuttings. It's still hard to resist! LOL
Love J105. Why don't I already have that one? Hmmm....
I can't wait to see my Hawaiian Sunset bloom. What a beauty! *crossing my fingers and toes for next year*
James - good to hear Psycho is hardy. I hope I can root her! Yes I potted up Budharaksa, Sanmarie and Nebel's Gold on Sept 24th. So 12 days ago. Nothing is happening there either... LOL. But this time I managed to not move/touch them at all. So PLEASE root plumies!!
And yes your JL Hawaiian Sunset is gorgeous! For that I will tolerate her leggy habit. I need tall ones in the back don't I? LOL
Mona - Here is a pic of my J105... still blooming.
It's really one of the prettiest flowers I have ever seen. Flowers are HUGE, petals are so thick and the foliage so green. Overall a gorgeous plant... a definite must have to go w/ Rhonda. ;)
Hi James!!!
Sorry i am late to comment on your post...
Been working really hard the past few weeks and im taking a needed break!!
Kids are here too.. so i get to see my new Grandson again!! : ) He is so cute!!!
Love your pics.. Firestorm is looking great!! Congratulations on that huge cutting..
JL Hawaiian Sunset is a beauty. I agree with everyone, what a gorgeous veining bloom. I think of the Butterfly Gold that Joan posted when i see veining like that. LOVE IT!!!
The Hong Kong is simply beautiful..
The little one that you sent me is doing great, I came home to see blooms on it for the first time, so i wanted to show you how well it has done. Remember the size when you sent it? In a "red solo cup..." : )
Look at her now...
You are right about the fragrance.... I smell a sweet floral fragrance. What do you smell?
Hope all is well with you..
We are having cooler temps and i have been busy with trimming trees. Half are done and the other half will be finished next week. Our lows will be in the 50's this week, so i have some time. People in northern Virginia are feeling the cooler temps too. Brrrr...
Hi to everyone as well.. Lynn, where have you been? Missed you...
Cheers to YOU James!!!
Thanks again for everything!!
Hey Laura,
You should have posted pics of the grand babies, especially the newest addition... I am sure he is simply adorable!!! :)
Is your mom there also?? I bet she loves the great grand kids.
As for the work, think of it this way your putting a lot of effort and time in now but once its done you have all winter to relax and devote to your new grandson.
As for Hong Kong remember its like Dwarf Singapore Pink you can bring it in by a window in the house and it will continue to grow and bloom all winter. Hong Kong smells exactly like Singapore White, if your have cooler temps the scent may not be intense. If you bring her in during winter and she blooms it will be like a natural air deodorizer in your house...lol In So cal I will still have growth and flowers through November and some maybe early Dec if I am lucky.
I need to upload some pics and post later tonight. Thanks for the pics!!!
So went back to my patch today and took a few pics of stuff
JL Golden Pagoda recovering after surgery had a severe root pruning and was re potted..had couple of sorry looking inflos in July after she had her root pruning and is not sending up a bunch of late season inflos. Because of the cooler night temps the shape and color are weeek:
JJ's Jackie growing in shade and missing heat, never really gets too much color in Coastal So Cal but it is Jackie as I bought her with inflo in 2007 and she looked like the pics when I got her poor thing:
Emmersons Pink Nova...Luv the center eye prolific grower and bloomer, compact growth
Wildfire keeps on pumping out new inflos newest one:
Hawaiian Flag still blooming:
JJ's Sangria....Not sure if this ones a keeper
JJ's Gina: Love her she looks good no matter if shes solid red when its hot or rainbow when cooler:
Still have a ton of new inflos that have buds yet to open, some like Golden Ray are turning black and dropping.
Hi James,
I will post a few pics of the new Grandson.. he is soooo cute!! My mom was over last night for dinner and has been soaking in this little bundle of love.. Thanks for asking!! SHe is so proud of him... to be a great grandma is a special feeling for her.
I plan on leaving Hong Kong and about thirty others growing all winter under my T-5 lights.. I love the fragrance..
Your Golden Pagoda is just stunning!! Even with the light colors, i still love it. I can only imagine what it looks like when it has a deeper color.. I know this one is a special one to you!!
Wildfire is gorgeous!!
All of them look beautiful...
Take care,
Wow, even in cool weather Jackie and Pagoda are lovely. And Jackie's inflo is impressive! Isn't that the one with super thick branches?
Wildfire is just incredible. Can't wait for mine to bloom! Gina's been on my list for some time, too. Thanks for the pick-me-up, James. We woke to 50 degrees yesterday and today. Brrr.
Hey Jen,
Thanks!! Just to show you here is Gina with the heat vs the pics I posted at the start of the thread..what a difference heat and sun makes:
And this is JJs pic of what Jackie should look like with heat and YES the branches are very thick
Without the heat Gina is a pretty rainbow and Jackie is a solid yellow
James the pictures are awesome. I have to admit that I prefer how your Golden Pagoda looks now than when the petals curl. I had a question about Hong Kong. How does it compare to Singapore White. I want to put a evergreen in the ground but I remember reading about Singapore white having a problem with black tip.
Hey John,
Hong Kong is AMAZING!!! Unlike Singapore White it is compact not leggy, no black tip, flowers profusely and is everygreen with dark, dark green SHINY thick leaves like Singapore white and it blooms more profusely then Singapore but has a super strong Singapore scent. If your in coastal So Cal it will grow like a weed. Just like any of the everygreens it is sensitive to cold. Even a small HK plant will get huge in 3 to 5 yrs if you put in the ground. When I bought my HK it was literally the dimension of a wooden pencil, though it was a new seedling as the branches are thinner. It was about 7" fro the soil line and thin and single tip in a 2" pot. By the end of the season it was in a 1 gal pot and I personally have mine in a 40 gal pot and its a bushy tree with literally hundreds of tips now. I had to trim it this past season to increase circulation.
A pic of my HK from after I had it for about 10 weeks and re potted it into a 1 gal, it was about 3ft tall single tip in this pic:
Hope that answered any of your questions.
Even after the So Cal Big Freeze of 2007 here is a pic of HK 3 weeks after the cold in February in a 20gal pot, no damage and leaves still in tact. Again this was 5 yrs ago.
Pic from JLs farm in Hawaii of the the Hong Kong grove
Hope this has been informative about HK
Oh Laura,
This ones for you my Famous Solor cups...lol Great for starting cuttings in especially after water rooting as it dries out quickly so you can water them often. This was a group of Thai cuttings I imported from Thailand in 2007. As of 2012 only one has bloomed, the rest have not.
In a way HK has similar shaped leaves, though HK can get wider. Oleander has a matte leathery finish and Hong Kong is High Gloss like if you had sprayed it with a leaf shine product.
When ever I have cuttings or rooted cuttings I give rid of them right away, for freshness and to keep space available. If I kept all my rooted cuttings long term I would have many many more plants in my patch, so no I gave them all out. This was only the 2nd time I've ever trimmed HK. Someone on Ebay was selling a rooted HK, you may want to check there. Oh and Sonia has HK and might sell a cutting, or perhaps she has a rooted cutting....
LOL....your too funny. And yes solo cups are great as it is easy to cut drainage holes in them and if needed you can change them out regularly... and the solor cups I used are specifically purchased for cuttings to root in, they are not used..lol

Hi Iris Lovers,
I am wondering if anyone knows if this is an iris? I have some seeds and saw these in Sydney, Australia a couple of weeks ago. The only thing I have found on the web is a photo by a traveler who called it an Australian Iris, but I think he was American. Thanks for any help with the I D.

Overpriced.Posted Dec 15, 2014
Pros: Everything was in working order and clean. Amenities were upscale. Situated on a lovely lake with nice views.
Was sold as a Bed and Breakfast. That was not the experience that I had. It was more like a small hotel with a dining area and breakfast. It lacked the personal attention that you look for in a B&B. It was the first time I booked a B&B and was not contacted about arrival or accommodations.

Best place for some R & R.Posted May 27, 2013
Pros: The staff, the grounds, the Inn, and the food were all exceptional. We loved watching the birds.
Cons: Our room was small but comfortable. One suggestion: provide a larger ice dispenser for the guests.
Location: The location is about 5 miles from Hot Springs, which is convenient. We enjoyed the baths and our favorite sightseeing was at Garvan Woodland Gardens
We were on a Rest and Relaxation trip after tax season. Lookout Point Inn provided a place with a beautifully appointed Inn, delicious gourmet breakfasts, sculpted gardens to walk, a lake to sit by and enjoy the calm, a labyrinth for meditating. The staff were friendly, helpful, professional. The management has thought of every detail to make the guests welcome and comfortable. It is a place we highly recommend and will come back to.

Outstanding views over Lake HamiltonPosted May 15, 2012
Pros: The view and the personal service
Cons: Difficult to locate on the internet
Location: Outstanding in a private location overlooking the lake. You do not expect to find this sort of place when you start out
A small private hotel that gives personal service and knows all guests. The views are superb and everybody is friendly

SpectacularPosted Sep 14, 2009 on Hotels.com
The Lookout is truly a gem. The attention to detail is second to none at this peaceful retreat. Ideal location yet silent. The hosts are two of the nicest people you will ever meet, ready to facilitate your every need. After one day of relaxing lakeside in the beautiful gardens you will never want to leave. Wouldn't stay anywhere else.

You get what you pay for.Posted Mar 4, 2009 on Hotels.com
This hotel was excellent. We checked and the hotel staff immediately welcomed us and learned our names. Every time one of the staff saw us they acknowledged my wife and greeted us by using our last name. There is a beautiful view of the lake, a well maintained yard with a hammoc, a boat dock, and benches to sit and relax. Only about a 10 minute drive from downtown Hot Springs and far enough out of town for peace and quiet. Also, complimentary crackers, cheese, and wine combined with the whirlpool tub in the room makes for a very romantic evening.

Can you supress everything organically?
Im wondering if anyone can help us find a way to supress anything and everything in an area we have in our yard? We have an area set asside for use as a small racetrack for our kids and thier radio controlled trucks. We would like to stay away from any spraying of products because our kids all play and hang out on this part of the yard. I started thinking it might just be good to tarp the ground in that area and just remove when we want to use the track. Will this kill whats there AND prevent weeds to grow in the future if we keep it covered? Would this be the best Organic way to accomplish our goals? Is there anything else we could or should consider? Thanks for any help passed on.
If you want to poison the soil with a safe product, get some 20 Mule Team Borax laundry detergent and start shaking it out. Nothing will ever grow again. Plants need a little boron to exist but if you get just a little too much, BAM! It's all over.
The tarp might work. Use the silvered ones as they block more of the light than any of the others.
What I would do is cover it with deep mulch? Mulches do not completely prevent growth but they do make it very easy to pull weeds. The roots cannot get a good grip in the loose mulch. And the kids can play on top of the mulch. Our local playgrounds are covered in mulch.
No, you cannot suppress evverything organically. A tarp over the area may create more problems then it would cure because that tarp would tend to keep the soil wetter than soil exposed to sunlight. Mulches might offer some help although on the track they would hinder the cars more than help. Boric acid might help control some plants but it has no affect on others and needs to be applied in amounts that can be toxic to humans.
My kids, many years ago, simply removed any new "weeds" that grew in that race track each time they went out, and more often than not changed the race course.
