When Wonkette Stops Being Not-Funny, I'll Start Not-Writing About Her
But that day looks a long way off.
Wonkette is multitalented, by which I mean she is capable of being not-funny in a variety of formats. One of her favorite not-funny japes is to analyze the latest asinine warblings from chicbrit Tina Brown and "translate" their actual meanings.
Content Warning. Contains tasteless humor at Wonkette's expense.
This whole process is somewhat surreal; it's like watching one retard correct another retard on the correct pronunciation of "genre." Not to get all postmodern on you, but it's all very meta; one person with nothing to say but who thinks herself clever is deconstructing a very similar person with nothing to say but who thinks herself clever.
If Tina Brown's next column is about Maureen Dowd's last column, and then Wonkette deconstructs that column, I think the very fabric of the universe might begin to unravel due to the effects of a gravity-ripping singularity of ironic vapidity.
It's like masturbating to the thought of yourself masturbating. Sure, it's kind of fun to inject a little postmodern reiteration into onanism, but honestly, what's the point?
At any rate, here's my interpretation of Wonkette's latest interpretation of Tina Brown.
What Tina Says:
One of Ronald Reagan's unsung achievements is that he saved Vanity Fair.
What Wonkette Says Tina Means By This:
I am completely high.
What Wonkette Means By This:
I should see my gynecologist. Is it normal for one's genitals to smell like feet?
What Tina Says:
By March 1985, I had been editor in chief for a year, but [it]. . . was still in the throes of a severe identity crisis. . . Hoping for a deus ex machina, we got a president ex machina.
What Wonkette Says Tina Means By This:
The world revolves around me.
What Wonkette Means By This:
On the other hand, how can I be sure the problem isn't actually with my feet? Maybe they're the culprits.
What Tina Says:
At 6 p.m. March 20, 1985, I showed up at the White House with Harry Benson, the excitable Scottish photographer with toilet-brush hair who talks so much and works so fast he has managed to get six presidents to give up human moments of syndication gold for his camera.
What Wonkette Says Tina Means By This:
Elaborate but nonsensical metaphors will help stretch out this slim anecdote to fill an entire column.
What Wonkette Means By This:
I can't believe I get paid to type up my moronic little observations while I watch Cop Rock on Trio.
Barbara Bosson looks like she should have a big rack, but she doesn't. She shares that quality with Kathleen Turner.
Can I convince Nick Denton to pay me to write an entire 'nother blog on that subject? I'll have to get a friend to write me up a business plan.
What Tina Says:
"I love this song, honey," she said. "Let's dance." Her co-star replied with a line that might have been written for any number of vintage B movies: "We can't keep the president of Argentina waiting, Nancy."
What Wonkette Says Tina Means By This:
It surprises even me how easily I am impressed by celebrity.
What Wonkette Means By This:
I should shower up and head out to Georgetown. I hear that Michael "The Shield" Chiklis is going to be filming a PSA near The Third Edition. I'd like to see if he'll sign my ass.
What Tina Says:
The Reagans' moment of gaiety on the cover was a kiss of life for Vanity Fair. Coming when America was emerging from a long recession, the dancing presidential couple seemed to epitomize the buoyancy of American expectation. Reagan's theatricality always resonated that way. It was an instinctive collusion between imagery and national mood.
What Wonkette Says Tina Means By This:
I would make an excellent minister of propaganda.
What Wonkette Means By This:
Let me just wrap this post up so I can get back to the Sister, Sister marathon on the We Network. And then maybe I can see if Duane Reade carries some sort of feminine-spray Tinactin.

Brake question
Why am I able to get full brake lock on all 4 wheels in 4WD but in 2wd it seems I dont even have back brakes?
You're front breaks are 80% of you're stopping power as the rear is only 20. The reason you can lock them up in 4wd is that you're front breaks are helping to stop the back as well.

Talk:Haussmann's renovation of Paris
|This article is of interest to the following WikiProjects:
Legacy, not neutral[edit]
This phrase, worded as follows: "These quarters are, in reality, but a pastiche of early 20th-century post-Haussmann architecture, with its bow windows and loggias." is a very subjective statement. There is no consensus in what constitutes a pastiche, and it is usually used by pedantic modernists to criticize anything newly build that resembles a classical style without any further reasoning. Nachx Spain ( talk contr.) 10:43, 26 November 2013 (UTC)
- Yes, this article seems to have been 'filled out' by a few interested only in criticising Haussmann-ian Paris. Criticisms are fine, but there's no need for terms like that.THEPROMENADER ✎ ✓ 12:36, 26 October 2014 (UTC)
- 0.o I added that phrase. It was used to describe a quarter that imitated Haussmannian architecture, and it was a direct translation from the French article. Opinionated for sure, I'll change it. THEPROMENADER ✎ ✓ 12:49, 26 October 2014 (UTC)
- Gone now. THEPROMENADER ✎ ✓ 21:45, 26 October 2014 (UTC)
This article is a translation from French Wikipedia. The original article is huge, if anybody wants to help finish the translation, you're very welcome.
- I can help. What is there to translate? Perhaps a 'to do' list would be handy. I to believe the original article is User:Thbz's doing, and it is quite an extraordinary piece of work. I promised a plan but have yet to finish it - been too busy working and arguing on talk pages : ) Things to do then. THEPROMENADER 17:13, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
- I started where I thought the page had left off, but skipped a part... will go back and complete that later. For the time being I moved the "summary critique" section to the end of the article - hope this doesn't disrupt anything. THEPROMENADER 19:18, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
- Added missing "Critics" introduction today. THEPROMENADER 19:10, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

Section to integrate[edit]
After completing a literal translation of a section of this article's French original, I cut the following from the "criticisms" section - it contains some quite interesting additional information that of course would make a great addition to the original text.
Other Criticisms[edit]
Politicians and intellectuals sued the préfet over speculation and corruption surrounding these renovations. In La Curée (1871-72), Emile Zola described a common scheme of the time, where investors managed to get information on the buildings to be destroyed with the help of corrupt city officials, bought them for what they were worth, usually a very low price, and made profits from the expropriation compensations. Haussmann himself was accused of corruption, which resulted in his dismissal on January 5, 1870. The opera play Les Comptes fantastiques de Haussmann, in 1867, criticized this speculation period — the title is a play on words between contes, stories or tales - as in Les contes d'Hoffmann or Tales of Hoffmann, and comptes, accounts.
Artists and architects, (Charles Garnier among others) condemned the suffocating monotony of this monumental architecture. The Haussmann-type buildings were often seen as ugly. Many Parisians were troubled by the destruction of "old roots". Historian Robert Herbert says that "the impressionist movement depicted this loss of connection in such paintings as Manet's Bar at Folies (1882)." The subject of the painting is talking to a man, seen in the mirror behind her, but seems unengaged. According to Herbert, this is a symptom of living in Paris at this time: the citizens became detached from one another. "The continuous destruction of physical Paris led to a destruction of social Paris as well."
Haussmann's works, such as linking the four main train stations to large boulevards, were later seen as much as military engineering than as "civil planning". Indeed, this tied together the countryside and their garnisons to Paris, which at the time rarely saw a year without some type of disturbs or another (the July Revolution, the 1848 Revolution and the 1871 Paris Commune camouflage the smaller, daily, uprisings). Thus, this improved system of circulation allowed Adolphe Thiers' artillery to move in Paris, while the large boulevards made it difficult to create any long-standing barricade. The Commune was thus crushed in May 1871 by Adolphe Thiers, who since the 1848 Revolution and Haussman's renovation, had prepared his military plan: retreat from Paris to better crush the insurgents with military help (in part provided by the Prussians, who released war prisoners, etc.).In the 1960s, the Situationist International added a new layer of interpretation to Haussmann's renovation: instead of only analyzing the military aims of this supposedly civil-planning, Guy Debord and other situationnists pointed out how his arrangement had structured Paris into various functional zones, prefiguring contemporary functionalism, in particular as described by Le Corbusier: leisure areas (such as the Bois de Vincennes), work areas, etc. This spatial differenciation was joined by social segregation. Of course, the IS criticized this functionalism, on behalf of its "psychogeographic" theories: it claimed that this zonage imposed specific behaviours on individuals according to their setting (for example, playing soccer in a park, but not in the street; praying in a church, instead of using them, as during the Commune, for political reunions, etc.).

This merger proposal is logical and appropriate, and I support it. ---Charles 02:16, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
I'm not sure why this article was originally tagged for copyediting. Rintrah 14:46, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
Oblique street intersections[edit]
There's something confusing about the "design" of Paris streets, that I dearly hope somebody will explain. One understands that Haussmann laid out the city with many aspirations and intentions: one of these was possibly to quell, control or mitigate rioting. Due to Haussmann's varied objectives, the streets were widened. The problem is that however many times I read this, when I visits Paris I encounter those (seemingly contradictory) small streets that are set at oblique angles to larger streets, the "design" of which seem to serve no purpose: perhaps they were not created, but were in fact just a consequence of the new wide boulevards that cut across them. However, many Parisians say that these diagonal, slanted angles were deliberate, and that intersection angles like this were arranged in order to to "enable troops to outflank barricades". Whenever I've been told this, I've mistakenly just nodded wisely, instead of querying the subject further. A further problem is that there seems to be very little evidence of this information on the web. I found this: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/4729094/Paris-is-for-lovers-and-rioters.html (which mentions "outflanking barricades" but does not explain it), and this: http://www.nytimes.com/2002/12/15/books/fun-cite.html which again mentions the oblique angles but does not even explain them. One thing is for certain: they exist. So A/ could somebody please explain how these angles could help French troops, and B/ perhaps explain why there is hardly any information about it on the web? For example, why is it not mentioned in the wikipedia articles on Haussmann? I thank you in advance.
As the references section states, this article is a translation from French wikipedia, where it is an FA, well cited. I've only scanned the translation policy but I'm pretty sure that there's no need to add all the citations here, especially since they are mostly in French. If anyone could clarify this i would be grateful, otherwise I'll remove the banner soon. 18:08, 9 February 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ktlynch (talk • contribs)
German article[edit]
Note to self: A German article of this needs to be created. :) -- Horst-schlaemma (talk) 15:22, 19 March 2014 (UTC)
- Is this the equivelent of walking into a kitchen where someone is making sandwiches and saying into the air: "Boy, I'd like a sandwich!" ; )
- I can help with the sources/language if you need anything, but it's been a while since I've looked at this article. Cheers ; ) THEPROMENADER ✎ ✓ 12:26, 26 October 2014 (UTC)

During March of 1248, Adelaide Schumacher-affectionately called Snow White-has lost so much: her mother, her possessions, and now her home.
Adelaide hates abandoning her home city, her family's legacy, and her first love‒Ivo. More than anything, she hates her father growing closer to her mother's cousin‒Galadriel. Adelaide plots to end their tryst before her fate is sealed, and she never sets foot in Cologne again.
But good and pious can only get Galadriel so far. Never again will she be destitute. Never again will she be known by the cruel moniker‒Cinderella. Never again will someone take what is rightfully hers. No matter what it takes.
The Countess' Captive is the much anticipated follow-up to The Fairytale Keeper and is book two in The Fairytale Keeper series. The novel combines Grimm's fairytale characters with real historical settings and events to create a tale that leaves the reader wondering where fact ends and fiction begins.

In my opinion is this apartment situated in one of the best areas in Rome. I loved the streets, they are too narrow for a taxi to reach, but beautiful. Also, everything can be reached by foot. Just around the corner is 'bar del fico', a very hip nice place characterized by Italian people enjoying their drinks outside. Also, next to it is an amazing pizzeria.
Hassan was waiting for us in front of the apartment to handover the key and showing us around. A most friendly guy.
I would definitely recommend this place.
Prós: ótima localização, limpo, conexão wi-fi rápida, comunicação e atendimento solícitos.
Contras: vizinhança um pouco barulhenta, ar condicionado pingava dentro do apartamento.
The apartment is at a very good location. You can go everywhere just by walking. I will recomemnd this apartment to everyone who is looking for a historical or relaxing or .... actually you can find everything in Rome :D There is only one drawback about this house: the neighborhood is too noisy but it didn't bother me. Also apartment is very clean and wifi connection is perfect. Marco was very helpful: he replied to every message we sent in an hour and he fixed the problem if there was one.
The location is very good, it is easy to go any sight spot. Also, there are many restaurant and shops near the apartment. But it was a little noisy at night because there are a bar near the apartment.
The apartment was great for our family of 4. The beds were really comfortable and the apartment was clean. The street was lively in the evening, but the shutters and double glazing made the apartment quiet inside. Everything was well equipped and we enjoyed several meals in the apartment. Only a couple of minutes walk to Piazza Navona. Supermarket and the market at Campo de'Fiori within 10 mins. Quinto Gelato just down the street was also a favourite.
All our communications with Marco were quick and the arrival process was smooth. Marco's colleague was very helpful, we also used the travel service to book a large taxi to the airport.
The apartment had great wifi connection.
Highly recommend the apartment and host.
Marcos appartment is GREAT, near the coolest neighborhood in Rome. It is clean, spacious, quite at night, the bed is big and confy. You really will be happy.

Sarah Palin Fires Back At Katie Couric
Picture: Party goer wears a shirt that say 'I love Sarah Palin' for The Church Street Block Party - Toronto's annual Halloween celebration on Church...
Sarah Palin leveled a highly charged blast at CBS anchor Katie Couric during an interview with Sean Hannity on Fox News Monday night. Palin, who was made to look ridiculous in a parody of the interview by Tina Fey on Saturday Night Live , was asked whether she would grant another interview to Couric if she decided to run for president. "As for doing an interview, though, with a reporter who already has such a bias against whatever it is that I would come out and say? Why waste my time? No," she replied. She then went on, "I want to help clean up the state that is so sorry today of journalism. And I have a communications degree. I studied journalism, who, what, where, when, and why of reporting. I will speak to reporters who still understand that cornerstone of our democracy, that expectation that the public has for truth to be reported. And then we get to decide our own opinion based on the facts reported to us. So a journalist, a reporter who is so biased and will, No Doubt, spin and gin up whatever it is that I have to say to create controversy, I swear to you, I will not waste my time with her -- or him." During the course of the interview, Palin also shot back at critics of her daughter Bristol's success on ABC's Dancing With The Stars , saying, "Haters are going to hate." She added that despite the negative comments, she and her family have decided just to "dance and fly and soar and serve and speak about issues that are important to this country."

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
A Legacy Poem by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
No living atom comes at last to naught!
Active in each is still the eternal Thought:
Hold fast to Being if thou wouldst be blest.
Being is without end; for changeless laws
Bind that from which the All its glory draws
Of living treasures endlessly possessed.
Unto the wise of old this truth was known,
Such wisdom knit their noble souls in one;
Then hold thou still the lore of ancient days!
To that high power thou ow'st it, son of man,
By whose decree the earth its circuit ran
And all the planets went their various ways.
Then inward turn at once thy searching eyes;
Thence shalt thou see the central truth arise
From which no lofty soul goes e'er astray;
There shalt thou miss no needful guiding sign-
For conscience lives, and still its light divine
Shall be the sun of all thy moral day.
Next shalt thou trust thy senses' evidence,
And fear from them no treacherous offence
While the mind's watchful eye thy road commands:
With lively pleasure contemplate the scene
And roam securely, teachable, serene,
At will throughout a world of fruitful lands.
Enjoy in moderation all life gives:
Where it rejoices in each thing that lives
Let reason be thy guide and make thee see.
Then shall the distant past be present still,
The future, ere it comes, thy vision fill-
Each single moment touch eternity.
Then at the last shalt thou achieve thy quest,
And in one final, firm conviction rest:
What bears for thee true fruit alone is true.
Prove all things, watch the movement of the world
As down the various ways its tribes are whirled;
Take thou thy stand among the chosen few.
Thus hath it been of old; in solitude
The artist shaped what thing to him seemed good,
The wise man hearkened to his own soul's voice.
Thus also shalt thou find thy greatest bliss;
To lead where the elect shall follow-this
And this alone is worth a hero's choice.

the downsides of large roses in small gardens
I have been ignoring many of my roses now they are out of their glory season but alas, ignoring is no longer possible since walking from one end of the allotment to the other requires Kevlar, nerve and a willingness to tread all over the vegetable crops. To say it is a jungle is an understatement, made worse by my failure to even attempt deadheading, pruning and generally tidying up. A demoralising and wretched sight.....but I am donning a thick work shirt and my leather trousers (despite a 'boiling hot' english summer day of 80F or so) and taking my loppers to the plot.....we will have paths again....and the roses WILL look like decent shrubs rather than some apocalyptic nightmare of canes, rust and blackspot (our non-winter has meant a terrible summer of snails, slugs, disease....... Might even enrage my allotment neighbours with a bonfire.......
And, sigh, the berry picking and jelly time has arrived....so backbreaking scrabbling in the currants and stirring and sweating over supersized preserving pans awaits.....making a bit of clearing and hacking seem quite therapeutic.
Our weather is almost the same now in the low 80s with some humidity. The roses are all tall and need a trim. Blackberries just finished here and the grapes are ready to pick. On the bright side the humidity brings out the rose fragrance and evenings are warm and wonderful under a bright moon. I'm happy your plants have had a nice spring. Hopefully the little ones at the wood are growing fast as well.
A neighbor showed me his empty backyard and said his wife is cross that he removed everything but 2 large trees. He moved in and hated the weedy bermuda and badly trimmed overgrown junipers and other hacked shrubs and wanted a fresh start. I was looking at all the empty space and thought it was a great space waiting for something grand. He's a gardening newbie and is terrified of the emptiness. I was thinking of all of us and how we would have our minds busy with great ideas and grand rose schemes for that sunny spot. At least he starts out weed free!
"At least he starts out weed free!"
NOT for long! With any moisture, weeds and Bermuda will explode to fill that lovely, sunny "emptiness". I commented on the lush weed growth at Sequoia Nursery on a very early visit many years ago. Mr. Moore responded, "Well, if YOU don't plant something, GOD will!" 'Nuff said. Kim
Lol Camps. I too remember those one time English summer temps in the 80"s. But think of the gorgeous preserves you will have for toast and scones in the winter.
I have resisted the urge to plant climbers and the monster roses. I garden on less than an acre and was aiming for 100 roses. Mrs B R Cant is as big as I will dare. I wish there was an allotment system in the USA. I would try a couple ramblers there.
I'm sure you've explained many times...But, what is the idea behind an allotment in England?
Is it land you rent monthly to grow vegetables and flowers?
Do mostly renters or apartment dwellers have an allotment?
Is it a co-op to sell at the farmer's markets?
Just curious :)
We have community gardens in Sacramento, very similar to the British allotment. They exist all over the US and in many other countries. Rosefolly and I got to visit a German one next to Sangerhausen when we went there last year. The way it works in Sacramento, you sign up for a space and agree to whatever conditions are imposed, and it's all yours. There are indeed neighbors and political and interpersonal squabbles but it's still a very nice thing.
Wikipedia doesn't mention Sacramento, which has a dozen community gardens mostly on city park and community center land or on church or medical center property. It does show a community garden in Austin, TX, so there is at least one in the Lone Star State.
Here is a link that might be useful: Community Gardens
We have a rather large, nice Community Garden here in the San Fernando Valley. It's on the western edge of the Sepulveda Flood Control Basin, where the 405 and 101 Freeways intersect, one of the busiest interchanges in the country. The facilities are often used for rose shows by the local societies as well as plant sales and shows by various other plant societies. The Los Angeles Cactus Society held their annual plant sale there last month. Kim
Here is a link that might be useful: Sepulveda Garden Center
It's not common here. Houston is very very big (4th largest U.S.) and spread out. You absolutely need a car to maneuver the city. It's not a walkable city (like Austin). Houstonians drive 1-3 freeways daily.
There is alot of land in Texas. Typical suburbs have front yards & large backyards to garden here. So, no, I'd say we (Texans) never hear of having to drive over to garden somewhere else with other people. Thus my inquiry.
Sometimes, I'll read about a vacant lot or abandoned property (i.e. in Detroit) where people come together to grow food for the community or a co-op that sells the food to members. We have strict HOAs & city ordinances here.
Farmer's markets aren't popular here either. I wish we had real ones like California or Seattle's famous markets. There are a few itty bitty tiny ones that might set up at a park once a month. Other than that, flea markets sell fruits. We just go to grocery stores. It's not a very outdoor city.
Allotments are big in Sweden, too, but they are not very communal in spirit although the holders are members of an allotment society. The older allotments were formed after WWI as a means for poor people to grow food but are now more like summer homes for city dwellers. It is no longer obligatory to grow produce although most people have a veggie patch but some have only lawns and flowers. There are restrictions on how big the houses can be and there is no inside water or plumbing, only outside taps. Showers and toilets are communal in a centrally placed building where meetings and parties are held.
My friend Allan's small and hilly lot is filled with 60+ roses and his little cottage is one of the few original ones, from 1919. He doesn't stay overnight as he lives minutes away by bicycle, but many allotment holders spend the entire summer at their lot. There are also newer allotments where houses are not allowed.
Yep, Anita is pretty much on the button. My allotment (which I rent for a trifling yearly sum from the local city council) is 55yards long by 5.5 yards wide (I have 2 of them totalling 1/4 acre). They are measured in rods (or poles or perches - an antique measure similar to ells, fathoms, chains and so forth). Anyone can apply to lease one but they were originally allocated to the working poor, especially after WW1. There used to be over a million allotments but now there are only 300,000. We are supposed to grow food crops (and some allotments have strict rules with societies, treasurers and such) but ours is a bit more anarchic (or at least my plot is).
I mainly grow fruit (apple cordons, plums, 2 cherry trees, many currants (around 25 bushes) strawberries, raspberries (although I struggle with cane blight).......and roses - around 100 or so ........I also use it as a plant nursery to raise seedlings for my much bigger space in a poplar wood, some 70 miles away. I have had my plot for 12 years (when the council could barely give them away) but would now have to go on a long waiting list - the desire to grow and garden has increased exponentially in the UK, running alongside the financial woes resulting from the 2008 credit crash. Also, we are an intensely crowded island and new builds rarely have gardens - just an open communal space with municipal plantings. We (in England) would not tolerate HOAs in our own properties for a nano-second though.
Mauvegirl, I have been swapping seeds with a couple of Texan gals - much looking forward to growing ipomopsis, malvaviscus, callirhoes, talinum, cowpen daisies etc......as surprisingly, many Texan plants do rather well in the arid eastern parts of the UK. I also make massive use of the Lady Bird Johnson website - a terrific resource.
No, I have never had anything stolen....but for sure, there are the usual gripes and moans when any group of people get together.....in my case, it is usually cursing the slackers with their rampant couch grass which inevitably crosses the 18inch plot boundaries over into mine.
I wonder at the size of US community gardens - 10feet x 20feet seems about average...although even that is too much for some people. There has also been a trend to make our allotments much smaller but generally, when this happens, the plots tend to be less used than the larger full or half-sized plots.- mainly because there is no room for sheds, compost heaps, proper rotations etc. so I think a lot of councils have stepped back from trying to reduce the waiting lists by any means possible (Our site has 2 plots divided into 12....and both lots of plots have been a disaster, with a couple of keen growers marooned in a patch of weedy wilderness)....and the council promises of increasing these ''starter' plots came to nothing because the admin. was too complicated. 10 poles was a sort of agreed space which could, with clever cropping, feed a small family at least some of the year, supplementing poor diets with the chance of growing fresh fruit and veggies. If I did only have a US sized plot, I certainly would not grow vegetables since the saving on food costs would be minimal whereas growing flowers is a much more potent food for the spirit and heart (to my mind)....
My experience is that community garden plots here in the United States are quite a bit smaller than allotments in the UK or Germany. The ones I've seen here range between 100 and 200 square feet, not big enough to put in more than a token garden. Perhaps there are communities that have larger spaces available, but I do not know about them.
There is at least a three year waiting list for spots in the Community Garden nearest me in West Los Angeles. The plots are more in line with the 200-300 square foot range and the overwhelming majority focus on edible gardening or succulents from what I've seen. There is one plot with a ton of David Austins, but most don't have any roses. There are a few Community Gardens that have individual plots around me and also some Communal Gardens where dozens of people tend to the same smaller neighborhood plot the city has set aside.
The standard in Sacramento seems to be 200 sq ft. I'm always interested in seeing and hearing about community gardens in other places. My friend Bill Maynard who is the city's community garden coordinator has been on the national board for community gardens, and was one of the finalist for the Volvo for Life hero award in 2005 due to his volunteer efforts. As Britain's number of allotments have declined, ours have gradually increased thanks to the tireless efforts of people like him. Since lot sizes are so small in Sacramento's new homes, and older homes have mature trees and shade, having a dedicated community plot to garden is really a good idea.
Many people adopt one or many cemetery plots in the Historic City Cemetery (where we have the rose garden), and plant ornamentals there. It's mostly edibles in the community gardens.

Campanula, I won't hear of it! Stop ruining my fantasy - where I plant every giant rose that takes my fancy in my garden here, and we all get along splendidly and live happily ever after.
Seriously though, I've ordered some big 'uns and I only have half an acre. I can't help it. I just love some of those big old monsters. Time will tell, I suppose.
We don't have allotments in Australia, as far as I'm aware. Sometimes though, the residents in the street will get together (unofficially) and take over a vacant lot or a curbside patch of dirt in their street and make a sort of community garden. It's more akin to guerrilla gardening that allotment gardening though, ha. Some councils are more tolerant of this than others...
I love reading about your exploits Camps.
Last week I tackled moms wonderful comfrey patches, those things make me itch like mad. I will never be done with them as they have roots that make bind weed look easy to dig up. Thank goodness mom deals with her stinging nettle patch. If I had an allotment.....I can give you a couple of plants that would make me be a very bad neighbor....lol
I hate to admit, I have yet to visit the new community garden just a few blocks away. I really have had good intentions to stop, just always seems like their open houses are when I am busy or have a truck loaded with something odd.
Oh your garden looks delightful Mariannese!
I should have clarified - I'm on half an acre which is not really a small garden, but it's in the forest. Which means not a whole lot of sunny spots!
But Kim, if I had a sunny half acre covered with a bunch of outbuildings, I would smother them all with roses anyway. Actually that sounds pretty great!
I should have attempted to move quite a few of these big 'uns last autumn -but as usual, the woods seem to induce fantasies which are especially over the top and hopeful....the thousands of bulbs probably exhausted me because not a single rose was moved from the allotment and now they are all a year older and bigger. However, hedging season is also upon us (ordering at least) and, thrillingly, I can buy R.lucida, virginia, canina, rubiginosa, glauca, rugosa...........for pennies! (along with viburnums, prunus,quick, sloe, firethorn, hollies............)
Hedging season - when we order small bare-root 'whips' or 1 year old maiden trees and shrubs for hedges - like spring flowering bulbs, we start to think about this in mid-summer ready for ordering in autumn. These little plants sell for as little as 28 pence each - not sure what that is in AU dollars but it truly is ridiculously cheap. We plant these when they have been lifted from the fields as soon as they are dormant (evergreens are usually sold in small containers, having been cell-grown and are usually more expensive....but still laughably cheap) Not all species roses are grown as hedge specimens but check out nurseries which sell hedge plants - the selections are astonishing and the planting is easy, often just requiring a single slender trench made by a spade being wiggled to and fro and inserting the small bare-root 'whip' into the cut. At the very least, expect to find canina, eglanteria, rugosas and pimpinellifolia species roses.
Camps, that is so cool! I love the way the traditional English landscape, if you will, is reflected by the vendors commercial seasons. I sorely wish we had hedging season in Australia! I wanted to plant myself a hazel hedge, but each bare-root plant is $30 here, and there are very few sellers. Same goes for beech. Needless to say, I'm not made of money, so I still don't have a hedge :)
You can't root your own from the hazels? As long as they are fairly easily propagated and not patented, rooting your own for your hedge should be great fun. I want a mass of hesperaloe parvifolia but don't want to pay the price asked for them, so I "borrowed" a few seed pods from a plant and raised a bunch of them from seed. They're now two years old and outgrowing their gallon cans. At this size, they're about $10 each locally. Kim
That is a very good idea Kim, and I will probably go down that path once I'm a bit more confident with propagation. At it stands, I've been gardening for less than a year and I'm still very good at killing things :)
I'm pretty sure hazel is not too difficult to propagate from cuttings and suckers, but I don't know about beech.
I understand your trepidiation, but the best way to learn is just to do it. If it doesn't work one way, do it another. Don't let it intimidate you. The confidence and self satisfaction, not to mention the self enabling that comes from successes are worth every "killed" plant! Kim
Hehe, thanks Kim. I have sort of dived in head first this year and have ~40 roses, 16 blueberries, 12 hydrangeas, 10 camellias, 8 deciduous fruit trees, 6 citrus trees, 5 peonies and 3 lilacs to plant, care for and get water to, along with a miscellany of other plants and bulbs that are already in and too numerous to mention! I challenge anyone to a pot-ghetto competition, haha.
So I think I will have my hands full this year, but next year, once I get the drip-type irrigation in over the summer, it's on for young and old! Needless to say, I have a LOT of empty pots lying around waiting to have some cutting die in them :)

Discussing LGBT Patient-Centered Care in Atlanta
October 6, 2011 by Admin
On Thursday, October 6, local hospital representatives gathered in downtown in Atlanta to discuss how medical centers and health professionals can provide equitable and inclusive care to their LGBT patients. LGBT health expert Shane Snowdon led the discussion on the disparities, inequities, and anxieties experienced by LGBT patients and their families.
HRC's national Healthcare Equality Index is among the tools presented to the attendees. The HEI provides administrators with a way to evaluate their policies with the goal of providing LGBT patients with equitable care.
Snowdon is the founding director of the Center for LGBT Health & Equity at the University of California San Francisco, the country's only LGBT resource in a health care or health education setting, and a member of HRC's Healthcare Equality Index National Advisory Council.
We'd like to thank The Health Initiative and Grady Health Systems for their sponsorship of this event, and look forward to working with them on projects affecting the LGBT community in the future.

The ADs don't even bother me that much, although they are very annoying.
I didnt realize that people had problems with the ads. Really, are they that much of a nuisance? I barely notice them most of the time...unless its a new anime ad or something. Honestly I find the new layout with the ads kinda annoying. It doesnt make any difference to anything but personally it was easier at the top.
Hmmm...pay $20 or link AO to your blog, etc. I wonder which one the people will choose.
->:Be descriptive in your posts or its like you didnt post at all:<-
|The "RULES" of AO|My AO Gallery|YouTube|AnimeSuki|
The ADs don't even bother me that much, although they are very annoying.
And the man already gave an alternative, just put a link on your personal network sites to AO and you'll have the ads remove for free. As long as the ads doesn't have audio it is fine with me.
'Cause you give me something / That makes me scared, alright / This could be nothing / But I'm willing to give it a try / Please give me something
'Cause someday I might call you from my heart
@Tbaism I respect your opinion and don't take anything you have said as an insult which I hope is reciprocal. Now I still believe your on oranges. Why? The basic argument of yours is 2 fold.
1) That tenure and post count are valid contributions to offset the "cost" of running the site.
I contend that the tenure and post count of a person has no barring on the profitability mechanisms of this site. You cannot confuse the purpose of the site with the cost of producing it. Yes you can argue there is no site without us posting meaning who would want to run a site with no members? But the thing is he is footing a large bill for US to come and enjoy the freedom of speech and converse with others. What good is your willingness to come and make this site successful with loads of posting if he can't afford to have the site? No amount of posting puts the ability to do so there.
2) It is unfair to have to pay to have something you don't like removed. Especially if they can't afford it.
It is NOT ok for us to get what we want because DB decided to use HIS money on a daily basis to run the site. Just because we didn't make that same decision or can't afford to do so doesn't mean that we can say "remove" the income source without monetary compensation. It isn't "fair" for DB to bare all the cost while everyone else "uses" the site and "expects" free stuff.
Remove the ads for all and he can't afford to give you the site where you enjoy expressing yourself, hanging with friends etc...
Leave the ads or get monetary compensation for the removal of them and we have a site to post on.
Honestly which one would you really want?
It's really not too much to ask for. If you don't have the funds or access to funds, I'm sure you have a facebook, myspace, gaia or an account at another social networking site. Just link from your account / site to AO, PM me and I will remove the ads for you.
The server costs for AO are $235 / month. Thankfully this is offset by ads. Now you can see why the ads are so important.
This recent update you gave is sincerely a great solution for freezing sites, in case your wondering what that meant was that every time i try to post anything for me it would take for about five min. or so depending if there is a spam that just simply pops up on me and usually freezes my computer with all the different varieties of ads. so i appreciate it if you are creating a solution. ^_^
Magic intervenes when there is love in first sight.
'Cause you give me something / That makes me scared, alright / This could be nothing / But I'm willing to give it a try / Please give me something
'Cause someday I might call you from my heart
dark1angel (Feb 12, 2008)
The only thing that has changed is the placement of the ads. No more or no less ads were introduced.
The benefits of paying the $20 is that it would help maintain the server and possibly get a memory upgrade to improve performance.
Alternatively, if you have a solution or 2, I'm all ears. So much easier to complain rather than offer a solution I know.

Sarah at ALA Midwinter 2015
The last time I went to Chicago during the winter, I came back with my first case of bronchitis. ALA Midwinter was the second time I experienced a Chicago winter, and I'm proud that I carried out my duties as Secretary of the Asian/Pacific American Librarians Association (APALA) despite getting sick the day before the conference. I took an early Friday morning flight and attended the ACRL International Perspectives on Academic & Research Libraries Discussion Group Friday afternoon. There were three presentations:
- "As a librarian at Salem State University, Zach Newell worked with a group of faculty to successfully write a grant to bring a group of Iraqi Fulbright Scholars to study at the University in the summer of 2014. Working with the group, he identified effective teaching strategies related to diversity, multiculturalism and social justice.
- Thanks to special grant funding made available to campus units through University of Cincinnati's five-year diversity plan, UC Libraries started special library programming for international students.
- Laurie Kutner ran an ALA sponsored trip to Costa Rica in the summer of 2014. The 13 librarians from all over the U.S. worked on 3 different library projects in the Monteverde area of Costa Rica and contributed a total of 200 hours to these projects."
The convener's notes and presenters' PowerPoint slides are posted here at ALA Connect.
I started my term as Secretary of APALA after the last ALA Annual Conference in Las Vegas, and I have been meeting with the Executive Board virtually on a monthly basis. It was great to see the other Executive Board members at an in-person meeting on Friday evening, and I also met a couple of ALA Presidential candidates.
On Saturday morning, I participated as a member of the ACRL Science & Technology Section (STS) Continuing Education Committee meeting. It was great to catch up with other science librarians and plan the science librarians' breakfast for ALA Annual in San Francisco. I am also serving as Co-Chair of the APALA Archives and Handbook Task Force, and I led the APALA Committees Working meeting on Saturday afternoon. The revision of the APALA Handbook is one of the President's priorities this year.
On Sunday morning, I attended an informative program sponsored by the ALCTS Linked Library Data Interest Group thanks to Lauren Corbett. The first part of the program focused on VIVO, which is an open source semantic web application that enables discovery of research and scholarship across disciplines in an institution. Seven institutions originally participated in VIVO in 2009, and Brown, Cornell, and Duke are also current participants in VIVO, which aims to build a large web of data, greater than any one effort. If you're interested to learn more about VIVO, go to vivosearch.org and Indiana University's VIVO site.
