Question: how to make an offer on a foreclosure?
I found a foreclosed house that I really like and I want to make an offer on it. I don't have a real estate agent, and I'm wondering if I have to hire one to make an offer to the bank, or if there's a less pricey alternative. I hate to pay commission to an agent at this point, but I don't really know how else I would make an offer. Can someone help me with the ins and outs of making an offer on a foreclosure? Thanks in advance.
"Make sure you don't forget the "Contingent on inspection" clause!"
Depending on how long the bank has held the property it may not have any utilities turned on.
They will NOT turn them on for an inspection, so you are left without any real way to check wiring, heating/cooling, and plumbing systems.
All that can be done is an abbreviated inspection to look for major damage and problems.
The bank typically will not make any repairs, and does not have to even sign a sellers disclosure in most states (they have no knowledge of defects to report anyway).
Make sure you have enough money available to handle problems that may crop up after the purchase.
Depending on the exact reason for the foreclosure the house may be in good shape, or could be damaged (even stripped).
A few things I've learned in purchasing foreclosures here in the Twin Cities (I've purchased two):
- "Contingent on inspection" is a non-starter. The houses are sold as-is, and, as brickeyee pointed out, utilities frequently are turned off, with whatever attendant effects that may have. I had no problem bringing in my own home inspector, but the inspection could not be complete because utilities (in this case, water) were off. If you're "unlucky", previous residents or squatters have caused damage, too.
- Do not buy a foreclosure if you have a definite time when you need to be out of where you are now. One house I had under contract went almost seven months without closing (their problem, not mine) before I cancelled the contract. Good thing I didn't have to move out of my own house for that one. I've heard stories from reliable people about banks sitting on purchase offers for weeks/months. It's often been difficult to find someone who knows about this lone property hundreds of miles from the bank HQ. Some banks are just plain overwhelmed. Some just don't give a rip.
- Know the rules for the area in which you purchase the home. Some towns/cities/counties may require you to clear up outstanding assessments or pay for inspections or vacant-building fees. My city is making a lot of noise about requiring people buying vacant homes to bring them up to current code. I appreciate their intent, but, frankly, bringing many of the 75-to-100-year-old houses here back to an attractive livable condition and to current code just is not economically viable. You don't want to find that out after your offer is accepted.
I don't mean to seem unduly negative about buying foreclosures. There are some great bargains out there, or at least some decent housing at very good prices. But buying a foreclosure is not like buying an owner-occupied home. And even with the help of a buyer's agent, you're on your own for a lot of it. Know as much as you can and know when it's smart to walk away.
I helped a client buy a foreclosure last year. There was no inspection. Period. We also had to do a cash deal and offered the quickest close of the three other bidders. Fortunately, my client and his brothers are all in some form of a building trade (plumber, electrician, tile guy...) so he took them all through it first.
He closed in under a month on it. For many banks, the closing date is almost as important as the offering price. The sooner the better.
Good luck.
Thank you all very much for your input. I made an offer today. I wish I had read the advice about a quick closing date before I did, but oh well...Something to remember for the future anyway. The RE agent confirmed the bank pays his commission. The only worry is that one other offer has already been made on the place and it was the same amount I was planning to offer. I asked the agent to go three thousand higher, but he said most likely the bank would counter any offer I made and would of course try to drive the price up as high as possible with a bidding war.
One good thing: this bank is highly motivated to sell the property. My agent learned that they countered the other offer within 24 hours. One bad thing: If I'm bidding against a house flipper I can't compete because I know the house needs about 50,000 in repairs/remodeling and I'm no DIYer. A flipper can afford to go higher because he can do the work himself.
I did want to check one thing my agent told me. He said that I had to write a 500.00 check as a binder to a title company. He also said the title company would cash the check but I could get my money back if the sale didn't go through. This doesn't sound right to me. Why wouldn't they hold on to the check in case the sale DID go through, not vice versa? I didn't like that because although it's a reputable title company I feel the odds of getting money back once a check has been cashed are pretty low. Is this SOP?
Can you move your closing date? If you can, have your realtor call the banker and tell him of the better date. That might make all the difference. When I was submitting offers for my client, the bank called me by mistake looking for one of the other bidding agents (my cell, what an idiot). At that time, I asked him the status of my offer. He told me I was out. I hung up, called my client and drafted another offer with a better close. Submitted the offer again (even though I was "out") and got the house. Sorry, I don't know how the title company binder works. Didn't have to do it, or it was handled by the lawyers.
Keep after them. In foreclosure deals, conventional rules don't apply (but keep it honest and ethical).
The earnest money check is normal in my state with any real estate transaction. It is put in an escrow account until the contract is either canceled or consummated. If canceled both parties have to agree to the return of the money and sign off on it and if you go to closing you'll see a credit there for your earnest money.
Something I always insist on in any offer is a contingent walk-through inspection in the morning prior to closing. Obviously, I also insist on an afternoon closing. I do this for several reasons. One is to make sure the occupants are actually out. Another is to look for hidden damage, or damage that has occurred since the last time I looked at the property.
With a foreclosure, I would be concerned about vandalism and/or theft between the last showing and closing. If the seller would not agree to a contingent inspection just prior to closing, I would move on.
I would also change the locks immediately after the closing. It's likely that someone else still has keys to the property.
"If the seller would not agree to a contingent inspection just prior to closing, I would move on."
That is a walk through, not a "contingent inspection."
Its only purpose is to verify the condition is the same as when the contract was ratified.
Banks routinely change the locks immediately after a foreclosure.
Ask the bank and save some money.
Yes the common term is walk-through. Ask a lawyer what he would call it, though. For it to have any teeth, there has to be a contingency attached to it, unless you want to slug it out in court.
Its only purpose is to verify the condition is the same as when the contract was ratified.
Another important purpose is to verify the owner and/or tenants have vacated the property. If anyone hasn't and the property closes, a tenancy at sufferance is created. Then you have an unlawful detainer situation on your hands, which will take an attorney to clear up. Think time, money, and possible damages while all that drags out.
"For it to have any teeth, there has to be a contingency attached to it, unless you want to slug it out in court."
The "contingency attached" is that you will refuse to close.
Is is implicit without being stated.
The same of the seller has not moved out.
Refuse to close if they are in violation of the contract.
Many people will not use the leverage they have as buyers at the closing table to halt everything when needed (there are others who misuse it to extract additional concessions).
Just a note - HUD foreclosures, at least in my area, allow a turn-on for utilities for the inspection by an inspector, and of course the buyer may be present. HUD foreclosures have already vacated the homes, and HUD affiliated agents/companies show the homes during open houses. Offers may be withdrawn dependant upon the inspection results, but homes are sold as is. I have heard of good deals, but the bidding process helps elevate prices of desirable homes. Good luck, Bluemoon!!
Can you move your closing date? If you can, have your realtor call the banker and tell him of the better date.
Verbal changes mean nothing. By all means, if you can move the date up, fine. But until you amend the purchase offer/agreement, sign it, and submit it, the closing date originally written down stands.
Just to update...
The bidder who got in ahead of me walked away rather than counter the bank's offer. I think this taught them a lesson, so rather than counter my offer the bank came back and asked me to make my best offer. Because I'd had a contractor look at the house and he advised me on pricing I already had my top amount in mind. Apparently it was good enough because the bank accepted it. I now have 10 days to inspect and 10 days to arrange financing and we close in March.
I liked dealing with this bank. They were very straightforward and very fast with their feedback. I think my experience was not the typical one for people trying to buy foreclosures.
Thanks again to everyone here for all the great information.
"They were very straightforward and very fast with their feedback. I think my experience was not the typical one for people trying to buy foreclosures."
The ones I have purchased (dating back well before the present crisis) have always dragged on.
Banks want to diffuse responsibility, so they have a committee for everything.
The fastest one I can remember was about 12 weeks.
The slowest was well over a year.
Banks do not like to loose money (nobody does) but many are just incapable of moving faster to save their ongoing carrying costs.
I have been caught a few times over the years when repair and renovation took longer and was more expensive than estimated.
I generally had to resort to renting the house out and waiting for better market conditions. Covering a portion of carrying costs beats eating the whole cost.
Banks are simply not capable of handling leasing, maintenance, and all the other headaches of being a landlord.
They would rather bleed than try and mitigate the problem of REO.
After all, Uncle Sam will bail them out in the end.

While you might be able to rely a great deal on your current customers to maintain your profits for now, if you neglect your prospecting duties, it won't be long before you are struggling to keep your business afloat.
Customers fly the proverbial coop for all kinds of reasons. Sometimes, it's your fault. You offer poor customer service; they find better deals elsewhere, or your products are faulty. However, oftentimes, customer attrition is a natural process and is out of your control. The customer's circumstances, needs or finances change, and so they walk away. Regardless of the reasons, you will lose customers year-in and year-out. Because of this natural ebb and flow, it's important that you devote a great deal of your time to searching for new potential customers, or in other words, prospecting.
So how do you go about surfacing new buyers?
- Do the math. Take a look at how many customers you lose (on average) on a weekly, monthly or annual basis. How many new prospects must you convert to buyers to replace customers who defect? How many new deals do you need to close to exceed your profits from last year? When you have a concrete number—accepting that you may need to adjust it—you'll know how many potential prospects to keep in the pipeline. From there, you can set goals for cultivating that pipeline. For example, you might need to call five new prospects per day in order to convert one to a customer.
- Make prospecting part of your schedule. You have to do it, and it can be one of those tasks that slip through the cracks if you don't add it to your daily to-do list. Aim to spend two hours a day prospecting, including pulling names, qualifying prospects and making cold calls. That kind of effort will keep your pipeline full of potential customers.
- Create a bank of prospects. Too many companies decide to beat their current marketing lists to death via email promotions and phone solicitations. Before that stops working for you—and it will—start prospecting a fresh source of new names you can contact. Ask for referrals from current customers and people in your network. Offer a free email newsletter, complimentary downloads or product giveaways for which people must register. Hold contests or product giveaways through your social media sites, requiring that people enter on your website. Ask for contact information from people you meet at trade shows and industry events. Or even consider purchasing or renting customer lead lists, although be careful when doing so, as these lists can often be more trouble than they are worth.
- Establish benchmarks for qualifying customers. Not every customer will need or want your services. Other customers might want them but aren't able to afford them. Spend some time figuring out what criteria your prospects need to meet in order for you to continue pursuing them. Examples: pain points, budget, size and technical capabilities.
- Write a qualifying script. During initial conversations with customers, you have a few seconds to introduce yourself and to quickly surmise whether your products are a good fit for them. A well-written script will ensure that you cover your bases without turning off customers. In addition to writing a couple of lines that introduce yourself and your company, draft several open-ended questions that you will ask to learn if a prospect has a need for your offerings, holds purchasing power within his or her organization and possesses the budget to cover the cost. If your business is run completely online, this initial interaction may occur on a landing page of your website; to improve the effectiveness of your landing page, check out a service like Unbounce or Optimizely.
- Get the timing right. If you receive a referral, or if customers register for one of your freebies, contact them within 48 hours. You want to reach out to them while the referral is still fresh in the prospect's mind or very shortly after they have commented on some of your content.
- Hold an initial qualifying call (for client businesses only). Using your script, call to qualify customers. If customers aren't a good a fit for your products or services, thank them for their time, and ask them to contact you directly if their needs or circumstances change. While you can't waste your time pursuing leads that won't result in revenue, it is important to end those discussions on a high note rather than rush customers off the phone. They could become clients later.
- Move on to the sales process. If you do qualify a prospect, begin the sales cycle, which starts with you building a relationship with the customer. Discover their needs, and find solutions for them.
Also, remember that the internet makes it very easy for customers to do their own research, so a sales pitch doesn't have the same power it might have had 10 years ago. People glean information from everything, from your organization's reputation with the Better Business Bureau, to reviews about you on "Yelp" and other social media sites. These days, you have to focus more on building a relationship with a customer than on the pitch alone.
Taking the time to properly qualify your prospects will save you time—and rejection—down the road.

Phillips Model 26PW6341/37 turns itself off
rml229October 10, 2008
I have a problem with my 4 year old Phillips television Model 26PW6341/3. It shut off one day by itself, so I unplugged it hoping it was just overheated and it eventually turned itself off again. I've been reviewing the problems in this forum and it looks like others have had similar problems. Some of the fixes mention a resistor. I have the back of the TV off but I have no idea what I'm looking for. There is what appears to be a resistor on the tube cb (white, rectangular in shape ceramic). Any help in diagnosing and fixing this TV would be appreciated. I have a multi-tester but I have little experience in TV repair.
Thank You.

Which Kichler under cabinet LED
All -
We've been given two options for under cabinet LED -- the Kichler 12054SS -- the "Direct Wire LED"
or the Kichler 12303ni style -- the "Modular LED". Anyone (lightguy?) have any thoughts which one is better? The Modular is almost twice as much, but it is dimmable -
thanks in advance -
Direct wire LED fixtures tend to be larger than low voltage fixtures, some of which trade the bulk of the light fixture for a large transformer that can be tucked away elsewhere - cabinet, crawl space, attic, toe kick.
Benself, did you figure this one out or get any other advice? I'm just starting to research and my KD says I should get something dimable in Juno or Kichler and not to do fluorescent. I'm learning the retail markup is outrageous; the quotes I got from our local lighting store kept dropping when I asked for my price, then for our contractor, then for our electrician...
Quotes I got for the Kichler and Juno were ridiculously expensive too.
I went with the ones from Environmental Lighting.
THey look nice installed!

The world's cheapest MP3 player
By Mike Hanlon
April 14, 2006
April 15, 2006 If you're in any doubt about how ubiquitous the MP3 player will become, think about this. Japanese company Evergreen has released the DN-2000 onto the Japanese market. The DN-2000 has no internal memory and no display, but takes SD cards up to 1GB and like most MP3 players, doesn't need a display because the standard interface of buttons is entirely adequate. We're not going to put the price in the heading or first paragraph so you can decide for yourself just how cheap it might be possible to sell such an MP3 player for … with earphones, after design, manufacture and marketing.
A week ago we wrote about the world's most expensive MP3 player, which seemed somehow incongruous given that most MP3 players are based on flash memory and we all know how quickly memory is getting cheaper. But even then, the news that Evergreen had hit the Japanese market with unit priced at 999 yen (about US$8.50) tickled our fancy.
Now we're searching for the world's cheapest digital camera. Via Japan IncShare

Body found in Le Grand orchard
The body of a man who had been shot multiple times was discovered Monday morning in an almond orchard, Merced County Sheriff Mark Pazin said.
Deputies received several 911 calls about 8:30 a.m. after workers saw the body of a man in an orchard near the intersection of Buchanan Hollow and Minturn roads. The man has not been identified,
The body had multiple gunshot wounds in the torso, Pazin said.
"Right now, we just have the very basic elements of the investigation," Pazin said.
After receiving permission from the owner of the property, he said, deputies blocked off a section of the orchard.
Pazin said it appears the man was shot in the orchard. The man appears to be Latino and in his late 20s or early 30s, Pazin said.
An autopsy by the Merced County coroner was expected to happen late Monday, Pazin said.

You got it.
"Please, if you'd like to make a meaningful contribution, please keep us updated on what you see / how things are there."
Once I settle down and get my life organized, I will try to share my views about Switzerland. All I can say at this time is that the Swiss people I have met are very polite and welcoming.
"Is anyone going to go through the hassle of signing up for an account from B&N to buy a book? I did look into it before, and tried being a customer for a while. "
Take a second look, they seem to have changed that:
"New Customers and Guests
You do not need to create an account to place an order. Click "Begin Checkout" to continue.
To make future purchases even faster, you will have the option of creating an account during checkout."
"But I look forward to the silver, too ;-)"
My word is important to me, and only I can chose to make it worthless.
You can count on the silver along with a postcard from Switzerland.
Thank you for all your hard work, I can imagine it is not an easy job.
I try to change people every day. Do You?

If you are looking for ARROGANT, rude, loud, obnoxious, self centered, and overbearing then BYPASS ME!
I am a God-fearing, 34 year old woman who is grown enough to know that I can be independent yet submit to a man who is deserving I am wise enough to know how to walk beside my mate and smart enough to know when to step in front of him. I seek a man who is wise enough to know that the TRUE value of a woman is measured above her shoulders NOT below her waist. With that being said my ideal mate would be someone who is somewhat tall, definitely handsome, and holds himself in the highest esteem. Therefore, he can demonstrate respect for others. He does not have to be perfect as all of us are flawed. I want a man who knows that he will never have to worry about his strength wavering because I am strong first. However, he must be wise enough to understand that teamwork makes the dream work. FYI: I ABSOLUTELY love FLORIDA FOOTBALL! If you are NOT a GATOR then....well, you'll be alright...lol

Our family of 4 (one kid is 4 years old, another is 14) had fantastic one week stay at this villa. We've traveled quite a bit all over Caribbean, so, I had very clear idea of what I am looking for. We found pretty much perfect location at this villa.
Nice clean sandy beach - even our 4 years old had no issues getting in and out of water, not a single stone, nice small seashells here and there. Beach is quite long, so if you need some exercise you'd have plenty of space for walk or run. There are no big waves even on windy day.
Villa is located in small gated community, just outside of shopping/restaurants/bars area that gets busy when cruise ships come. Location could not be better, as it has best of both worlds - peace and tranquility with easy access to fun and action when you want it.
There are 2 small grocery stores literally 1 and 2 min away on the foot, and a bigger one 5 min drive away (we took taxi). We normally had breakfast and lunch at home and would walk to a ... mehr

James Van Der Beek - James Van Der Beek's wife announces pregnancy
James Van Der Beek's wife Kimberly has announced she is expecting their third child.
James Van Der Beek's wife Kimberly is expecting their third child.
The 36-year-old actor and his spouse, who married in 2010, already have kids Olivia, two and Joshua, 17 months, and Kimberly took to her blog, oldschoolnewrules.com, to announce their happy news.
She wrote: ''James and I are happy to report that we are expecting our third child this winter!
''Nesting mode is starting to kick in. I've been getting rid of clutter, reconfiguring rooms, reorganizing EVERYTHING etc... my mind doesn't stop. I'm looking into meditation for that.
''All of the craziness, exhaustion and moodiness aside, James and I are beyond elated and feeling so incredibly blessed (sic).''
Kimberly also revealed their kids are happy about having a new sibling and she paid tribute to James for being a great husband and father.
She added: ''Olivia and Joshua are in on the news and seem to be excited about a baby coming into the family. And James, thank you for being the loving, caring and understanding husband and father that you are.''

Bitcoin's Success With Investors Alienates Earliest Adopters 158
from the who-has-the-gold-wins dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
I don't understand, how are they removing the anonimity of Bitcoin?
They aren't. Bitcoins can now be used in new venues, but that does not stop private transactions. The article is just stupid. If I deposit cash in a bank, I will be recorded by a security camera. But that doesn't mean I can no longer buy stuff anonymously with cash at the local flea market.
But you can wipe your fingerprints off that cash. Coins don't even have serial numbers and the numbers on notes are not tracked in every transaction.
You can't wipe your bitcoin address off the block chain.
If you associate that data with a person, they're forever tied to that transaction and you can follow it.
You can't wipe your bitcoin address off the block chain.
If you associate that data with a person, they're forever tied to that transaction and you can follow it.
But you can create as many bitcoin addresses as you want. You can use a different address from every transaction. The only way it can be tracked to you is if "they" already know who you are by other means.
Unless you use a different address for every transaction you will ever make, "They" find out your entire transaction history as soon as they match you to a single transaction, through one of these new services popping up that keeps and shares records with "Them"
I thought using a new address for every transaction was the advised method of using bitcoin.
I don't use it myself, but I remember reading something along the lines of "never reuse your addresses" in the documentation.
How do you get bitcoins into the new address? You either have to mine it, buy it, or transfer it from another address. Most likely you transfer it, and what account you transferred it from is public record. So, all your accounts are effectively linked, even if you use a new one for every transaction.
Sure, you can have multiple completely-independent accounts, but you can't move money between them unless you pass it out through cash, or you mine it. The ability to pass it out through cash is limited due to the developments in TFA - banks are asking for ID. So, unless you mine ALL the cash you use in discrete unrelated bundles, you're traceable. Mining is pretty expensive and a hassle, though it can be done (though over time it will become less and less practical).

I can't imagine getting excited enough to give five stars to a dish rack. And this rack does have some issues. It's a bit wobbly when empty, the drain board doesn't drain, and I have a feeling the finish won't last. But!!!!!!!! The basic design is far superior to any other dish rack I have ever used. I grew up with the old-school Rubbermaid rack that wasn't big enough for even half of a family meal's dishes. In my twenties, I used folding wood racks that needed to be replaced when they started to mold every year or so and weren't much better than the old Rubbermaid as far as capacity. At some point, I had the high-end Simple Human rack that held even fewer dishes than the Rubbermaid while taking up so much counter space it seemed to be the visual centerpiece of the kitchen, stainless steel appliances be damned. And now I come to my new Better Chef 22 inch chrome dish rack. This thing holds two meals worth of dishes, including pots and pans! And the design allows plenty of breathing room for all of those dishes. I'll never have to stack wet dishes on top of dry dishes as long as I have this rack. Seriously, all other dish rack designs should be taken off the market. I would be happier with the Better Chef rack if it were stainless steel, but I'm probably lucky that no one seems to make such a higher-end rack because I would have spent twice as much. Oh yeah, did you notice the price!? This is a great deal. I cook two or three meals a day without a dishwasher and this rack definitely eases the burden!
Living in a mobile home with limited counter space, this is a great product. I can stack both levels. What I really like about it is that it has a drip try under the racks and that saves wiping up the counters. I am very glad I purchased this prduct. Now if it would only put the dishes away!
I read other reviews and I agree that it can hold a lot of dishes. Its longer than most dish racks but its also slimmer.
beautiful, space saving (although I would have liked it if it was larger because I have the space), functional, it holds lots of dishes,pots and pans etc. I love that it is two tiered. I hope it doesnt rust but have already coated some of it with clear nail polish. If it does rust I will just buy another one ..that's how much I like this product.
replaced lesser quality same design. The 22' is long so you will need space but I love the 2 true. Appears sturdy only have for. few weeks
Very sturdy. HOLDS EVERYTHING. Best I've ever owned. Dishes dry very quickly. I "feel" that AIR was "invented to dry dishes!
I loved it but it was to high for our cabinets so i gave it to my grandson and his wife and the love it.
If you have a narrow space for this, it will be perfect for you. However if you have enough space to put a normal dish rack, get a normal one. I have a normal space, but thought the 2 level would be nice. I wasn't expecting this thing to be so narrow and tall! I do like the design overall, and it holds a good amount of dishes. A good buy for the price. If I had the opportunity I would buy a "normal" dish rack next time. It is nice enough that I will just keep this one.
This dish rack is worth the money, its not an eye sore in your kitchen, and it does the job. It holds a fair amount of dishes , and its not made cheap.

I don't know if this nessecarily counts as a poem. Since I've never written one and don't read them often, but I figured "what the hell" and tried to come up with one. Anyways here it is -
You are the strife
The blood stained ripples
In the vibrant lake
My life/
You are the fairy man
Of lust
Drying my beautiful life
Into naught
But air and dust/
Polluting me
With thoughts of greed
You are the one
I do not need/
How must I quit you?
Your addictive ecstasy of decadence
Absent of redemption
Death is no acception

'Exotica' from Eurobulb (Verberghe)
Exotica is beautiful!
I just love the copper color of this bloom. And...she is an excellent seed or pollen donor. All my Exotica cross seedlings are very vigorous.
I love her too. This is my first Exotica and Exotica bloom and I'm thrilled!
I was hoping to get some comments of using her in breeding so thanks Kristi.
Right now I have only Naranja and White Garden blossoming, Jewel and Flamingo Star will follow soon; I was hoping to cross her with Jungle Star for example, or Exotic Star, or Lemon Star - with Sweet Lilian I'm not going to bother - but they won't make it for this set of flowers. There's another scape on it's way, maybe then...
Exotica is truly a unique and beautiful flower and you've captured it beautifully. I wouldn't be without one!
I bought my first Exotica about 3 years ago and during the summer it got devoured by the NBF but luckily there was a small offset which I grew to bloom for me last year albiet only two flowers as it was still small.
I agree that Exotica makes healthy seedpods and vigirous seedlings. I have from my first blooming some Exotica x Lady Jane that have some size to them and I'm hoping they will bloom in the near future. I also have some selfs hanging around here somewhere and last year I mated Exotica with Mocca/Cappuccino and have seedling of those crosses too.
You've got a great line-up of possible mates for her and I know you'll have fun as her pollen works great too.
Here is my Exotica from last year..only two flowers as the bulb was still small but I found this time she was more curvaceous than the first time.
Jewel, yes, I like the idea. And I really like Jewel.
I've been hoping to see pictures of Jewel's seedlings, any out there blooming or about to?!
Donna your Exotica looks lovely! I hope mine would develop into such a beauty. So fortunate that you were able to save a part of her through her offset. There's always a special bond then.
With all those exciting crosses, ones already performed and others yet to take place, how are you guys able to sleep?! I can't.
By the way, if I needed to, how should I go about storing pollen? Is it how difficult? Do I need equipment of laboratory standard?
I usually cut the pollen sacs, many times before they even open if I wish to pollenate on that particular flower and let it sit for a few days to dry out in a tiny glass or plastic container. Then I just use those miniature zip-lock baggies and they're easy to write the name and date on and into the fridge..no rocket science needed here as long as you've got clean dishes to start with...I usually keep it for the entire blooming season and then toss it. I don't really know what exactly the shelf life is for this pollen but obviously the fresher the better but I'd say off the top of my head that 3 month would still find it viable..
You can freeze it too, I have some "Tinkerbell" pollen somewhere in the freezer that I never used..at least I think I do...
Once again, this is just my method I'm sure others may indeed be a bit more scientific...
Ask Google!! OK...I did it for you!
The good folks at KitchenAid (ie, mixers and fridges)say, "These fruits and vegetables produce high amounts of ethylene and should be stored away from other items:
passion fruit
So...there you have it!!
It would appear from a few google searches that just about all fruits emit ethylene gas..apples may be the biggest culprit though..
Actually, I wasn't aware that most fruits and veggies emit some amounts of ethylene gas as they ripen...
Here is a link that might be useful: ethylene gas emitting fruits...
Gee, it seems we really do need that second fridge! Quitting hippie-business is out of the question, there is no turning back from this road I've taken, I'm having the time of my life...
Thank you guys, I really appreciate all this info.

After having lost Rahim Moore to a lower leg compartment injury, with young Duke Ihenacho playing physically but erratically, and Mike Adams a better backup than starter, Denver recently found some help at safety in the form of T.J. Ward.
A former second-round pick of the Cleveland Browns, Ward was selected to his first Pro Bowl in 2013. The Broncos are betting that his physical playing style will benefit the way their defensive secondary holds off both passing and running games.
T.J. Ward was born Terrell Ray Williams Ward Jr. on December 12, 1986, in San Francisco. He's one of three children of Terrell and LaNeita Ward, and has a brother and a sister.
If you don't consider middle linebacker one of Denver's biggest issues, please raise your hand. There will be men in white coats coming around to take you for a nice car ride soon...
We all know that the Mike has been problematic for Denver ever since Al Wilson went down with a neck injury back in 2006.
There's been a laundry list of people who stepped in and did their best, but none were truly up to the job. I thought Wesley Woodyard was the best of the group (especially in coverage), but he's a bit too small to hold up to the runs up the middle. That showed last season.
Continue reading "Rosterbation: Looking forward at 'backers"
Given that the Broncos' front five was completely dominated in SB 48, it's no surprise that there's talk about what to do with a pair of linemen - Zane Beadles and Chris Clark. It's not hard to see that Denver's line was overmatched by Seattle's front four that ugly day.
A year after he was named a Pro Bowl alternate, Beadles was the least effective player on PFF's top line in the league, and now he's a pending unrestricted free agent. The question comes down to this: given the ups and downs in his level of play, is it worth keeping him? If not, what should Denver do to replace him? If so - what is he reasonably worth?
Whether you like Zane or not, it's just reading his history to say that he has been extremely erratic in his NFL play.
Continue reading "What should the Broncos do with Zane Beadles?"
The Broncos' offensive line play has been incredible this year, and it's a big reason the team was able to dispatch with the Chargers and Patriots with relative ease.
Peyton Manning's lightning release (2.36 seconds on average, according to PFF) surely helps their numbers, but what they've done for the running game as well as stonewalling the pass rush has been historic as well as heroic.
One tool that the line used during every game and to great effect was the combination block. This block starts with two offensive linemen converging on a defender, and then one of those lineman will slide off to attack a defender on the second level.
Continue reading "A Second Helping of Denver's combination blocks"
During the week before the AFC title game, it seemed like the media couldn't stop talking about Patriots running back LeGarrette Blount. Denver didn't really have a good run defense, went the chorus, and Blount had run for 166 yards in the Patriots' 43-22 victory over the Colts.
That, we were constantly told, would be a big key to the championship game.
All week long, I kept seeing pieces about the Pats and Blount: San Diego had run effectively on Denver during the regular season, what Denver could (or couldn't) do, and how much they were vulnerable. I got tired of turning things off and generally just ignored it, but the repetitive talk about how the Broncos couldn't stop the run was like having a small bird endlessly pecking the top of my head.
He's 35 years old, 6'0" and 192 lbs, but Champ Bailey has shut down receivers a half a foot taller and 60+ lb heavier than he is. In all the years I've read and written on football, I've never seen anyone question Champ Bailey's heart. This year, it was his foot that betrayed him - but we're about to find out if his courage will be able to overcome it.
The Broncos secondary has been stretched thin, just as the playoff stretch is upon us. This year may be the last best chance that Champ has to add a Super Bowl ring to properly top off a storied career.
We knew that if he could walk, he'd be on the field. But where, many of us wondered, would he play? How could he best help the team?
Rookie Sylvester Williams had a unique journey to the pros, and struggled early, but lately has been showing exactly why Denver made him their first choice in the 2013 Draft. No one seemed to imagine a scenario where Williams would still be on the board when Denver chose, but an early run on offensive linemen left him to the Broncos, who gratefully snapped him up at #28.
That has turned out to be the right choice at the right time. Defensive line leader Kevin Vickerson suffered a season-ending hip injury in the Week 12 loss to the Patriots, and Williams started to see more time on the field.
He's made the most of it, with a solid performance during the last quarter of the season. What Williams has done of late is to show that he understands the pro game and that he can play well at this level.
Continue reading "A Second Helping of the development of Sylvester Williams"
Earlier today, we got refamiliarized with San Diego's offense. Let's check in on the defensive personnel, plus consider some ideas for how the Broncos can complete a season sweep of the Chargers.
Defensive line - San Diego's line has begun to come together, but they're still not the team's strongest link. Third-year right end Corey Liuget (94) struggled early in the season with a shoulder injury, but he now has 4.5 sacks, and according to PFF, zero missed tackles. He has also committed six penalties and has struggled at times to get to the running back.
If he gets there, he doesn't miss, but his lateral movement needs to improve. Luiget also has the most QB pressures on the team, with only 27 - that's the lowest production from a team leader in the league.
Thursday night, the Broncos will host the Chargers and attempt to win their 11th straight divisional matchup. The two teams first met in Week 10, when Denver jumped out to a 28-6 third-quarter lead thanks to three straight touchdown passes from Peyton Manning to Demaryius Thomas, and then held on for a 28-20 victory.
Each team enters the rematch coming off a big win - San Diego's a 37-14 drubbing of the visiting Giants, and Denver's a 51-28 comeback win over the Titans at SAF@MH.
While the media has overstated the 'guarantee' of a win that Mike McCoy supposedly promised for Thursday, the Chargers would no doubt relish the chance to be spoilers of the Broncos' drive for a Super Bowl berth.
The Broncos celebrated the first day of December with a brilliant come-from-behind 35-28 victory over the Chiefs, and now control the AFCW and their own destiny for playoff seeding.
After customarily deferring possession on the opening kickoff, Denver had to weather KC's emotional level of play in the first half, falling behind 21-7, but getting to within a touchdown late in the second quarter.
They went three-and-out on their next series, but starting with the second-half kickoff, the Broncos sucked the life out of Arrowhead with three consecutive long touchdown drives - of 80, 92, and 95 yards.
