Fast shipping. Product exactly as described and performs as good if not better than oem. Exact fitment as oem, no surprises. Very happy with purchase.

The posi quiet pads work beautifully, no complaints whatsoever. Almost no dust. My regular mechanic did not have the sockets to remove the calipers . To buy these would cost him around $300. Had them installed by Porsche dealer for $ 296.00 including new wear sensors. Expensive but I would do it again.

Great piece of equipment! Reaction time is phenomenal and ease of use and function is perfect. The only complaint I have it's that the unit itself could be a touch smaller/thinner. Not much space between my knee and the product. Bumped it once or twice and had to re-calibrate the unit. Other than that, I had to make my own mount because the bracket they give is cheap. Still an overall great unit.

Ariana Grande 'Almost Died' Performing 'Love Me Harder' [VIDEO]
Ariana Grande shared a very scary video with fans, recalling the time she "almost died" during "Love Me Harder."

Want to know how Beyonce gets that insane body? The singer just gave fans a rapid-fire tutorial, courtesy of her Instagram.
Madonna fell during her 2015 BRIT Awards performance, but soldiered through anyway.
When Taylor Swift went up to receive her first-ever BRIT Award, she was so excited that she planted a huge kiss on Ellie Goulding's cheek -- and left a giant lipstick mark!
I love Kacey Musgraves. I really like everything about her music, style and her attitude. She's an artist and she does her own thing... like covering pop artist Britney Spears.
If you've ever wondered how it feels for your soul to be gently rocked to contentment and then personally escorted to your choice of a heavenly afterlife, then look no further than Sam Smith's performance of "Lay Me Down" at the 2015 BRIT Awards.
Taylor Swift kicked off the 2015 BRIT Awards with a monochromatic, Michael Jackson-esque performance of "Blank Space"!
We just celebrated the Grammys, the United Stats' biggest night in music, and now it's time to hop across the pond to the 2015 Brit Awards. See the winners here!
While we recently celebrated the biggest night in music in the U.S. with the Grammys earlier this month, England is going to do the same today (Feb. 25) with the 2015 annual Brit Awards.
The future of FX's American Horror Story remains a mystery in Season 5, considering Freak Show's poor reception and series star Jessica Lange's likely exit, but it seems we have a new Mother Monster. Lady Gaga herself will join the cast of American Horror Story Season 5, potentially dubbed Hotel, and nothing has ever made more sense, in the history of ever.
Oh no! Demi Lovato was rushed to the emergency room yesterday (Feb. 24) and has been hospitalized for a lung infection.
Believe it or not, there are a lot of people who really, really want to see Taylor Swift's belly button. And, as is true with the rest of her career, the singer took control over exactly when she wanted to debut it to the world.

MK-61 was the best seller of all USSR programmable calculators of 1980-s (B3-34, MK-54, MK-56, MK-61, MK-52).
Calculators are emulated on microcode level so they behave exactly like the original devices, including all non-documented features and inaccurate calculations. For ease of use application features saving and loading emulation states.
This app's emulation engine Java code is based on C++ source of Felix Lazarev's emu145 project.
Emulation was highly optimized for speed and should run in real time on any phone.
Hint 1: touch calculator's indicator to toggle slow/fast mode. Indicator's blinking looks better in slow mode.
Hint 2: you can choose between MK-61 and MK-54 using menu option that becomes visible when calculator is switched off.

Find out how many students are interested in playing. You'll need at least half again as many as needed for a team. In basketball, 5 people are on the court at once; so you'd need at least 7 to allow for injuries and absences. You'll need students who are committed and likely to remain eligible academically.
How to Plan a High School Sports Program
High school sports can be big business--remember LeBron James having his high school games televised on ESPN? However, they can also just be fun. At the startup level, that's what they should be. Getting started can be difficult, but it's all worth it when the team takes the field (or court, or pitch or ice). Read on to learn more.
Research the cost of the program. You'll need to know the cost of equipment and uniforms, of reserving facilities if needed, of hiring officials and of travel to games.
Find out what other schools in your area have a program in the same sport, and what it would take to join their league, or even join them in creating one. A well-organized league, with tournaments and championships, goes a long way toward the success of a new sport.
Submit a proposal for the program to the school or school board officials. It will need to be well-organized, and show that students are interested in taking part and even willing to help with fundraising.
Consider an intramural league or just a few practice games the first year, before stepping up to a full schedule.
Build interest in the new program among the students.
- 1
Tips & Warnings
- The key to getting a high school sports program started is the students. If there is interest, do everything you can to maintain it and build it. Organize trips to see pro teams, show videos, encourage those interested to recruit their friends.

'Owen Farrell is the future of English rugby'
Tom Hamilton
June 21, 2012
Jonny Wilkinson alongside Southwark Tigers coach Vernon Neve-Dunn © Gillette
Jonny Wilkinson is adamant that Owen Farrell is the future of English rugby despite him being dropped by Stuart Lancaster.
Toby Flood started the second Test against the Boks last weekend and has got the nod for this weekend's game with Farrell having to be content with a spot amongst the replacements. But with the debate still raging over just who is England's first choice fly-half, Wilkinson has backed Farrell to bounce back from this setback and channel the disappointment into improving as a player.
"It's a very tricky decision for Lancaster to make," Wilkinson told ESPN. "I know Floody very well so I know what he's capable of - he's a world class player. He's a friend and I've played alongside him and also sat on the bench with him many times. I know that he's a phenomenal talent and he'll always have that so he's a quality player to have in the mix.
"But then in regards to Owen Farrell, I have nothing but respect for the guy. He's young but he's shown from a young age that he's capable of dealing with immense responsibility and pressure at that age which is almost unheard of. From an English perspective it's an incredible ability and one that must be respected and continued to nurture because you have someone there that is the future of English rugby.
"We keep on talking about that future, but the next breed is the 'Owen Farrell' breed. We want people who are mentally tough enough to step forward and say 'yes, there is pressure, but I am good enough'. He's already done that to an extent during the last Six Nations as he had a huge amount to do with anything that England did well.
"Him being left out for the second Test alters his path's direction a bit but it's a good one in my opinion. He's always learning and he needs to make the best of these situations as every situation is, believe me, there for him to be amazing. He's already set that path where he will be something very very special and this here is the sport turning around on him and saying 'this is possibly what you need right now as it will help you to get better and better'.
"A chance to reflect and determine where you go next is valuable and he will analyse ways to improve and it will make him a better player. If we get more out of Owen Farrell then the whole of England will benefit."

Saying this will reach ALL BABY BOOMERS
because ALL baby boomers are into the Internet.
However, I do agree it won't reach the baby boomer's parents. Many don't have computers and aren't interested in the Internet. So, there are other ways, though.
Try these:
especially of the trooper in the beginning of that wonderful you tube video clip & also the trooper walking in the graveyard, with a few things splashed in between & we can "educate" the older folks who vote
BILBOARDS in cities~~~
with "Have you had enough?" with "More money has been donated by our soldiers than all the Republicans put together AND Obama to RP"....."Now, do you believe our boys? They want to come home!"
Bilboards cost around $1,000 per month, depending on the city, but they are an extremely effective way to promote Ron Paul, because THOUSANDS OF CARS drive by these signs EACH & EVERY DAY!!
If I lived in a BIG city, I'd be getting our RP groups together to pool money into billboards at strategic locations!

'The artist was fantastic and the children were engaged and interested and were prompted to talk about art and explore art in an interesting and active way – fabulous – would highly recommend it' Autumn 2011
Tate schools workshops are devised and framed by artists with established practices, who value the opportunity to test out their thinking in relation to the artworks on display, in dialogue with young people.
Each workshop will take place in the gallery and will involve encountering artworks, looking, questioning and formulating responses. Artists bring a particular approach to looking at art and the content of each workshop will vary according to the artist's particular approach and ideas.
In 2011–12 the workshops were led by:
Meera Chauda, Catherine Hughes, Louisa Martin, Monica Rivas, Eve Peasnall and Hana Tait at Tate Modern.
Encompassing a diverse range of practices including, installation, performance, painting, collage, film, drawing, animation, text, sound, site-specific art and photography, each artist operates from the distinct perspective of their own art practice.
Two workshops in each time slot per day (strict maximum of 16 students per group)
Each school can book up to two workshops per term
Groups must sign in at the gallery 20 minutes before the start time.

Evolution Preps Vamp Film 'Reign Of Blood'
UK production outfit Evolution Pictures is readying a number of features including actor Jason Flemyng's directorial debut Reign Of Blood, a vampire action film written by Danny King, BAFTA-nominated in 2011 for drama Wild Bill, reports ScreenDaily.
Flemyng is best known for roles in Guy Ritchie films Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels and Snatch, blockbusters including X-Men: First Class and Clash of the Titans, and more recent features Gemma Bovary and Sunshine on Leith. He also starred in Will Bill.
Production is set to begin in summer 2015 with casting currently underway.
Major 'Ghostbusters' Character Details Revealed – Could Bill Murray Return?!
I'm still looking out my window thinking I'm going to see some pigs fly by as yesterday a Ghostbusters bomb was dropped. It appears that not only do we have our main cast in place, but there's also a planned release.
First, mark your calendars for July 22, 2016, at that's when Columbia Pictures plans to bust some spooks.
Now, let's talk about the newly minted all-female 'busters, lead by Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Kate McKinnon and Leslie Jones. Our friends at Hitfix shared the following inside character info:
"Kristen Wiig is playing Erin Garber, a published author on the subject of the paranormal. Erin now works for Columbia University.
Leslie Jones is playing Abby Bergman, who co-authored the book with Garber. Since publication, the two former colleagues had a falling out and went their separate ways. Abby more actively chases ghost a la Ghost Hunters. This tension between academic investigation (Wiig's character) and mainstream media investigation (Jones' character) is central to the story.
Kate McKinnon is playing Abby Berman's new partner, Jillian.
Melissa McCarthy is playing Patty, an NYC subway worker who stumbles across the main, supernatural threat in the film."
The site suggests that the casting is tailored to the roles, as opposed to be pigeonholed into one, even though it looks to me like they've just emulated the original four 'busters.
But some really interesting news is that the studio hopes to convince Bill Murray to star as Martin Heiss, "a man who is a professional supernatural debunker who is out to prove that the Ghostbusters are frauds," while also confirming they hope to land Peter Dinklage, as previously reported, as the main villain, "a creepy mechanical genius."
Paul Feig is directing the reboot that's going to be both fun and scary. Oh, and it will be set in New York, thankfully.
[Slamdance '15] First Look at 'Darkness on the Edge of Town' (Trailer)
Having its U.S. premiere out of the 2015 Slamdance Film Festival, which runs through January 29th, 2015 in Park City, Utah, is the Irish thriller Darkness on the Edge of Town.
Bloody Disgusting landed the official trailer, poster and still from Patrick Ryan's film that "Tells the story of Cleo Callahan (Emma Eliza Regan), a teenage sharpshooter who decides to avenge the death of her estranged elder sister after she is found murdered in a public bathroom. Unbeknown to Cleo, her best and only friend Robin O'Riley (Emma Willis) is the murderer she's sworn to kill."
Emma Eliza Regan, Brian Gleeson, Maura Foley, Emma Willis, and Sam Monaghan star.
Thee Massacre "Drenched In Blood And Sweat" Video Premiere (Exclusive)
A few months ago, I introduced you all to Minnesota band Thee Massacre, who take the theatricality of horror and mix it with the heaviness of metal to create something very cinematic, aggressive, and fun. I stated that they would be a "slasher film" if comparing to subgenres.
Now, I'm pretty thrilled to bring you the exclusive music video premiere of "Drenched In Blood And Sweat", which comes from their EP Horror (out now via Bandcamp).
The video, directed by Elijah Woodcock of Pandemic Pictures, is the tale of a sock puppet who is pushed over the edge and goes on a murderous rampage. It's bloody, it's gory, and it's absolutely ridiculous. Honestly, it reminds me of Meet The Feebles, so if you're a fan of that movie you definitely need to check out this clip!
The band states:
Thee Massacre would like to thank everyone that participated in the project. It's been a really fun process. Travis and Jordan our main stars deserve a lot of credit for the effort and performances they put forth. They really made this better than we hoped it could be.
Elijah and Anthony did a great job bringing this goofy idea we had to life. We are more than happy with how everything turned out and are extremely excited to present it to everyone.
We didn't want to do your conventional metal band video where it's just intercut shots of each band member. We really wanted to make a story that suits our personalities and makes the audience not only feel the horror movie vibe we try to capture with our music, but to make them laugh as well.
Thee Massacre will be playing a show March 7th at The Triple Rock in Minneapolis MN alongside By The Thousands, Reaping Asmodeia, and From Concept to Chronicles.
Director Woodcock states:
This is by far the most bizarre project I've ever been apart of. When the band pitched the idea of a homicidal sock puppet going nuts I didn't really get it, but my business partner Anthony Cousins was like, "Please lets do this!" As I talked to the band more and they told me they wanted an grind house horror vibe thats when I Jumped in with both feet. I grew up watching I Spit On Your Grave, Pieces, Sleepaway Camp, etc etc. Horror is my genre. My only hope is it is as fun to watch as it was to create.

AUPEO! your personal radio
Internet radio doesn't broadcast your program over the terrestrial network but rather over the internet. This way you can receive any program at any time - no matter where you are currently.
Internet radio plays the music of the future
The term online radio refers to a radio program that is broadcast over the web. In order to be able to receive the content, you just need a (fast if possible) internet connection and a computer. By now many devices are able to receive internet radio. AUPEO! runs, for example, on many Wi-Fi radios and TV sets as well as mobiles and smart phones.
Internet radio enjoys a high level of popularity
We are based in Berlin, so let´s start with some numbers from the home market: Through the (almost) comprehensive coverage of internet connection, almost 100 percent of 14-to-29-year-olds in Germany are online. The consumption of free music over online radio is therefore continually increasing. A recent online study showed that 13 percent of this age group had already visited a music portal like AUPEO! Three percent of those asked listen daily and five percent at least once a week. 58 percent of those asked said that the opportunity to listen to their favorite music was the reason for using online radio.
Online Radio Usage in the USA and UK
Naturally online radio isn't just a big deal in Germany, but also in the USA. A study from Bridge Ratings & Research showed from various studies that 19 percent of US Americans over the age of 12 years old listen to web-based radio. A survey conducted one year later by Ambitron showed further that 13 percent of US citizens between the ages of 25-54 years regularly turned on their online radio. In Great Britain online radio is also enjoying increasing popularity. In October 2008, 2.9 million British listeners tuned to personalized music online, one year later the number was already up to 4.5 million. The tendency is rising!

I assume the Typhon Pact novels will at least touch on the topic of cloaking devices and their status in the post-Destiny landscape of the UFP. We know that the Federation has cloaking tech. According to JM Dillard's Resistance, each ship's computer is equiped with the spec's to make one with available components, and with permission from an Admiral. Since we don't know the exact wording of the Treaty of Algeron, it's impossible to say whether the treaty is now null and void. With the IRS being an official ally now, it gets even trickier.
Even if it is deemed that Federation ships can have cloaks, I would still prefer they don't use them very often. Talk about a deus ex machina
. The Federation is about exploring out in the open. Not hiding in the shadows. The group within the Federation/Starfleet that could really benefit from cloaking tech is Section 31, but as they are already super secretive and "underground", it's safe to assume they already use some form of cloak. According to DS9, they have their own ships, and they need some way of hiding them during their operations. As a clandestine group who do whatever is neccesary to secure the Federation, it would be ludacris for them to not use cloaking tech.
According to "Abyss" they do
, and your arguments make perfect sense to me, including the idea that we shouldn't see too much Federation cloaking.
The seeds of the ORDERS OF DISCORDIA were planted by Greyface into his early disciples. They form the skeleton of the Aneristic Movement, which over-emphasizes the Principle of Order and is antagonistic to the necessary compliment.

Do you match switches throughout house, or color match walls?
We are mid-remodel and have a bunch of outlets and switches that need to be installed in the kitchen, living room, master suite and hallway. If I want anything other than builder basic white, I have to let the electrician know ASAP.
Most of our walls will be Dunn Edwards Fossil (soft white) with Foggy Day trim (light, slightly cool taupe). The tricky part is there will be a medium-dark grayish blue accent wall in living room and front entry, and the kitchen and/or master bath might be light gray or blue. The Lutron White Architectural Matte looks best with the Fossil walls (I need my electrician to verify the Nova T dimmers available in that color will work with our LED and fluorescent lights). My designer (now on early maternity leave) said she thought the white would look too stark on the blue and gray walls. She recommended I look at "Stone" for all the walls, but I brought a sample chip home and the undertones are too yellow/tan (that is the problem with most of the colors). There is a pale gray called "Palladium" that would probably look good on the blue or gray walls, but I am afraid it might look odd to use that color on the white walls, especially since the trim is pale taupe, not gray.
What do you do in your house - keep the switch and receptacle color consistent throughout the house, or switch things up depending on wall color?
I find this question especially tricky in the rooms with more than one color in the same room. Do I put white switches and outlet receptacles on the white walls and gray switches and outlets on the accent wall? I might be able to paint the wall plates to match the wall colors, but the switches and receptacles will still stand out.
I go on a room-by-room basis.
Not sure how I'd handle your accent wall though!
And if you pick wrong, they are ridiculously easy to redo yourself. (Have your electrician label stuff in the circuit box while she's working, if it isn't already done.)
When we built our house several years ago, I went with white throughout the house. Several other things that I needed for the house were only available in white ie: volume controls for ceiling speakers, security system keypad, etc.
I didn't want different colors of these things close to each other. The whites are not the same but close enough.
I used all white in the last house, but that house had all white trim and only 1 bedroom with non-white walls. I think it makes sense to match per room, rather than the whole house, but the accent walls are killing me.
Changing the switches out later for another color is not a good option for us, because dimmers for LED and fluorescent fixtures, especially 3-way dimmers, are not cheap.
In the kitchen, would it look weird if the light switches and plates are white (on a white wall), and the outlets in the back splash area are a different color to try to blend into the BS?
maybe do metal? those can look very modern and nice and go with almost any color since it is essentially a totally different finish. a friend of mine with a very high-end house had his spray painted with metallic paint (he did ORB throughout his house) and it turned out very well.
Metal was my first thought, too. Either clear anodized aluminum, stainless steel or satin nickel, depending on availability in each line. My designer recommended against adding more metal to my kitchen since I already have large SS appliances, a few chrome faucets and a satin nickel track lighting system. She thought a matte color would stand out less than metal. I may end up overriding her, but I generally like her taste.
We did all white switches, most near white trim. Several are on darkish blue-gray walls (BM Silver Lake and Blue Heather), one soft blue (BM Heaven on Earth), one saturated blue (BM Newborn's Eyes), some anonymous pale gray (we mixed this and that for the hall and now have no idea), a lightish gray (BM Stonington Gray), and one room in a soft white (BM Dove Wing). They all work, but that may be because of the white door trim plus base boards and crown molding (BM Bavarian Cream).
I match mine to the wall of the room they're in. My kitchen is painted a green with white trim. Any of the outlets/switches on the painted walls are white Lutrons. On my backsplash, which is travertine, I have the Lutron in Desert Stone. They blend in and are almost unnoticeable on the stone wall.
I changed out all our switches and outlets to white during our whole house reno. We had a mix of white and some dirty off-white grungy ones before. I decided that I could never find switches and outlets to actually match the wall colors and that near miss would bother me much more than a consistent white throughout the house. Our trim is white though, which I think helps.
Lutron makes something like 100 colors of outlets and switch covers. I ALWAYS try to match them to the wall color or accent color if high contrast for visibility's sake is needed. Yes, it costs a bit more than the 29 cent white ones, but it's a detail you see (or don't see!) subconsciously when evaluating a room. Just like having a stark white outlet in the middle of your wood island, sure, you can, but I wouldn't.
However, if these are new outlets and you are under the gun to make a decision NOW, then just put in white and replace them later with something from Lutron. I'd also put in the wide rocker switches rather than the small flip ones. But either is easy enough to do at a later time DIY when you aren't under as much time pressure. NEVER pay to have an electrician just change out a switch or switch plate. It's about the easiest DIY imaginable.
Cam -- yes they do. Google "colors of Lutron" for the palette, there are a zillion different colors, and they make them for regular receptacles, GFCIs, and a whole bunch of other configurations. I used yellow GFCIs with yellow plates on my yellow kitchen wall.

Sunset Strip Music Festival 2013 in West Hollywood: Day 2
Saturday, August 3, 2013 | 2 years ago
Former Stone Temple Pilots singer Scott Weiland bombed at the Viper Room during the second evening of SSMF. Weiland and his solo band butchered most of the STP classics. It's no wonder the band is thrilled with bringing Linkin Park singer Chester Bennington on board. Hoobastank (remember those guys) headlined the Whiskey A Go-Go, and Retox played their brand of aggressive post hardcore at The Roxy.

Where can I get the cartoon of Dr. Manhattan blowing Superman's head off?
Back in CT in the 80s, while the comic series Watchmen was coming out, I saw a masterpiece of fan art on the wall of a friend's dorm. It was a postcard captioned "Superman vs. Dr. Manhattan" (roughly) and showed Superman pulling his fist back to deliver a mighty blow to Dr. Manhattan, who calmly pointed a finger at Superman's head, blowing his head off and spattering his brains in every direction. The overall anticlimactic effect was similar to the famous scene in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom where a bunch of guys elaborately menace Indy with swords and he calmly pulls out a gun -- oh, you know the one. I'll give anyone who can tell me where I can find this cartoon, especially on the web, a million billion dollars.

Copied Love leaves something muddy

NC ASA Girl's Fastpitch***Due to rain that continues to fall in Burlington and the forecast of cold temps and not enough sunshine to dry the fields, the March Madness tournament scheduled for this weekend has been cancelled***
****Date and Venue Change for the NCASA 14U State****
Due to conflicts with the regional qualifier we have had to move the 14U A State tournament to Henderson, NC, now to be played June 12-14, 2015
Be sure to check out all the UNIFORM GIVEAWAY events on the Tournnament page. Tournaments are now in Oxford, Henderson, and Tarboro. Details have been modified to give teams from every age group a chance to win.
Camping at Oxford Park. Camping at Oxford park is permitted under new rules & guidelines. Please contact Mike Van Horn with NC ASA (919) 394-6785 to get the details. Camper space will be available on a first come first serve basis. There are only four "free" spaces and three fee based spaces.
We welcome you to the home of NC ASA Girls' Fastpitch. A site dedicated to the advancement of girls' fastpitch in North Carolina. We hope you find the necessary tools to help you, and your team, explore all the opportunities available for each individual young lady associated with fastpitch softball here in NC and around the region. NC ASA is proud to announce that we will have four $500 scholarships given away by "blind draw" at two selected tournaments. These are available to any player, of any age, that plays in one of these tournaments.
We offer a tournament page, listing all the quality ASA tournaments in the region including showcase type tournaments from across the region. We offer a message board to be used to post news, events, and tryouts. We now have a profile page available to college coaches that you can post your profile on, FREE of CHARGE. This site is password protected so that all the information will be available only to college coaches requesting access. We welcome your comments and questions. We are here to assist you in all aspects of girl's fastpitch in NC.
ASA National has also made it mandatory that one coach of any team that wishes to continue on to "championship" play, must be ACE Certified. The certification is available online at www.registerasa.com
NC ASA has made a requirement that a team must play in at least one ASA event in North Carolina, as a qualifier, to secure a spot in the NC ASA "A" State tournament. You must also compete in the NC ASA State to qualify for entry in any of the ASA Regional National tournaments. Remember that picture IDs are required for the National tournaments.
For 2014, the cost for individual registration is $12.00 for non-picture ID cards for "B" teams and $18.00 for the picture ID cards for "A" teams. All teams playing "championship" play must sanction as an "A" team with the picture ID cards. Remember this covers insurance and sanction fee with the registration. This is a great way to save a little money for teams who only wish to play local tournaments only and sanction as "B". Example: A team with 12 kids and a coach, can cover their team with insurance including the sanction fee for around $154.00. As always, I have an open door policy. If you would like to speak to me about any of the changes please feel free to call me at 336-416-6056. Sincerely, Rick McHone NC ASA JO Commissioner

driveway trees??
we are building our new home in the center of an 80 acre hay field, the driveway will be curving from the highway to house for about 500 meters. I was wanting to line the driveway with hardy evergreens and deciduious trees. I am in zone 3, in AB Canada where we get chinooks- extreme temp changes.
i was thinking to line inside row on both sides of the lane with alternating white and blue spruce and the outer row with green ash and silver leaf willow
can anyone advise me as to this idea?
also a not that i can get these trees free but only as small trees. I can irrigate them or should I try and save $$ for 5 foot trees and go with one row only or 1 row on each side?
Sounds like we have the same kind of layout...zone 3, built in the middle of a field...we had no trees at all! We've planted 1600 samplings supplied to us from PFRA. The willows, poplars and green ash are growing great. Everything else is taking its time growing and looks like it will a long time before we see any real growth, like I might be in my rocking chair and watching the grand children running around (I'm 37). Personally I have no patience to wait to see progress so I bought alot of 6 ft ones at end of season last year.
Then this past spring, we ordered more PFRA trees but I found a hutterite colony, off Kijiji, that was selling 4-6 ft trees for $10-$18. They were bare root of course which meant getting them into the ground within a week of him dropping them off. We bought 300 trees from him and are so happy we spent the money for instant tree presense, although you really can't see much and we don't get any windbreak or shade yet. We bought silverleaf willow, poplar siouxland, maples, and 2 types of ash. Maybe you could locate someone like this?
As for your selection of trees, my preference would be too line them all up in their individual rows, spaced accordingly in the row and distance from each of the other rows correctly. Silverleaf willow is a dense low growing tree that will bush out 40 ft and 30ft high. I planted lots of these. As much as I don't like Spruce I really like the Colorado blue and think it has so much impact all lined in a row. I have been convinced by some posters to include them in our landscaping plan! I personally wouldn't mix the two though.
Are you familiar with PFRA? Are you familiar with planting for wind protection, drifting etc? I will take a photo of our treeline tomorrow and post it here. Do you have any photos of your driveway?
Oh please get me photos.. you are just like me
I have the PFRA order form and the AB nurseries but know i am going to be so impatient.
I called the tree warehouse here and they could sell me 6 ft trees for 187 plus 99 to plant.. YIKES not with my budget..
I totally need to find your hutterite type salesman.. and yes i should have been looking at the garden centers.. duh but now they are all sold out.. I did find a guy on kijiji with 6 ft white spruce for $60 planted but he thought i would need 350 for just one side of my driveway and when i added that up.. :-(
how big were the PRFA trees when they arrived?
Lining a long driveway in open country with trees does not seem like an aesthetic that I would enjoy. People line driveways to build a more distinct space, but in open country the effect is much more like a line cutting the world into two halves and rather than building a space in between, it seems that it would almost like one of those backyard built streams that flows down the ridge of a hill as far as comfort goes.
I'd be more inclined to group trees farther away from the drive to create a bigger space that the driveway comfortably drives through. Make the space worthy of the scale of its surroundings. Can you imagine two fences 4' apart in an open field with a walkway between them? ... not very inviting or comfortable.
Me again...yes, it sounds like we will be able to exchange some ideas, although I might be just a little further ahead. Have you started building? Do you have your driveway in place already? Have you filled out your PFRA form? Important to do it NOW so that you get the trees of your choice, otherwise they substitute. Just a word of advice if this is your first year with the PFRA...don't get 1600 like we did the first year. It is merely impossible to plant that many without a tree planter. Most of them are sticks (literally) and are only 1 foot tall. The willows were a 6" stick that you stick in the ground and don't actually see until they start growing.
Anyway, here are the photos of the trees lining our driveway. I like a straight line, but with a few curves in it. They don't look like much but these are the ones I bought this spring and have already grown a 1.5 feet if not more. We have 5 more rows behind that of PFRA trees.
Siouxland Poplar (no fluff):
closer view:
Laurel Leaf willow (first row planted this spring, pd 3.99/tree and grew 1' already, back row 6' last year pd 39.99) The first row is much healthier and will probably pass the taller row in growing:
from other side: laurel leaf willow, row on right is silverleaf willow (1 year growth, these were literally a stick stuck below surface and grew that much in 1 year):
Maples bought from my little salesman this spring ($10-18) (trees in far background are along the ditch):
My orchard with apple and plum trees, 1 still waiting to be planted:
I should mention that I have planted ALL the trees myself, which was back breaking and exhausting, but I did it and I'm so happy with the results. Preparation and putting the right stuff in each hole is so important.
I have to disagree with a previous poster who thought lining the driveway was a bad choice. I love that feeling I get when I drive beneath a canopy of trees into someone's beautiful country yard. I would have loved the trees closer but my husband refused to have them as close as I would have liked because snow drifts and he is the one that has to clear it.
Please post photos of your yard, even if it is at the very early stages. It was a very exciting process when it all started...
thank you for sharing, that is inspiring to see the growth of the little trees.
I too disagree with the lined curved driveway being unappealing.. how can you not love this look, a curving driveway which entices you to follow to reach the house
Here is a link that might be useful: tree lined
I think I envisioned sort of the same thing that laag did, and it wouldn't be pretty.
At first, I thought of a stark, bare, northern prairie landscape. Essentially nothing on the horizon. Long sweeping expanse of flat land. And then... a lone driveway that's crowded in on both sides by the only trees in sight, all in a row like soldiers.
I'm all for tree-lined driveways; they can be gorgeous. But I have to admit, my first mental image was of two tight rows of trees hugging the driveway, and *nothing* that ties in the rest of the property to the entry.
As you're working to achieve the effect of an enticing tree-lined lane, I hope you're able to make it part of a larger overall planting plan that makes the most of your entire property, and not focusing too tightly on just the "tunnel."
How to do that, specifically? Umm... can you tell I've always lived in a city, and haven't gardened in the wide-open spaces? :-)
i can understand the extreme vision you may have had but no I want it to be a pleasing vision, I want it to seem like an adventure down the one day majestic tree lined drive, I plan to intersperse groves of trees but realize this will all take time to grow if i go with the affordable seedling route.
I will take photos and love all ideas and suggestions you may have.
currently it is 80 acres of alfalfa hay but one 1/2 mile side is a u pick orchard/winery and the 1/4 mile road side has 5 rows of mature trees (2 choke cherry rows, caragana and then 25 foot spruce trees) so the entrance is very tree oriented and welcoming, I want the flow to continue across the field to the house area (not yet built) which will have many trees planted as well as shelterbelt rows planted on the north and east sides as the west looks to the Rocky mountains.
Talk to some of your neighbors about lining a driveway with trees. I'm from So. Dak. & most of farm houses had trees on 3 sides behind the house,& quite a distance out on all sides from the house, not much in front where the long drive was. I think it had to do with drifting snow or maybe cleanup after heavy winds. If you don't know your neighbors drive around & see where they put their trees. If you can find someone with trees up their drive ask if they like it as you are wanting to do it also. You have a great start, looks lot like my BIL's in S.D. Their's are large now, only couple of evergreens in front yard & a specimen tree with island of flowers & couple of shrubs up by house. no trees by driveway.
Or maybe so that you can see when visitors are driving up the drive, no surprises. Or so there are no constraints on the size of vehicle that can drive up.
The image Laag describes was also what first occurred to me. But I think if the trees are spaced out far enough from the drive, not crowding the mirrors of your car, and there are lots of trees around, then I could see it working.
I think whether a long tree-lined driveway appeals (whether in open country or not...) may be one of those things that depends on what you're used to. I grew up on a property where the road to the house (public road, not driveway) was lined on both sides with big old spruce and fir trees (which had a tendency to come down across the road in winter storms - but that's another story...:-) On either side were open fields - not as big an expanse as open prairie, true... The line of trees signalled the approaching shelter of home. So if the line of trees cuts the space into discrete parts, it may be a division between the protected space of home and 'the rest of the world', which can be a comforting thing. As Karin notes though, the lines of trees need to be spaced wide enough apart to make a wide driveway so all vehicles can have easy access. Using the width of a road might be a good guide.
As for laag's discomfort with the vision of a path between two fences in an open area.... That was also a common - and pleasant and comfortable - thing I grew up with. Mind you, the 'path' was wide enough for a tractor and wagon, but wide paths between fenced fields were a part of the practical farm layout. Over time, the fences had acquired companion shrubs, small trees and vines (many of them fruiting) so it was attractive and provided food and shelter for people, farm animals, and wildlife.
So I'd encourage the OP to look around the neighbouring lands and see what is common there/what the local rural plantings around the home are, see what appeals, and use that as a starting point for planning.
There's lots of good info from the Alberta Ministy of Agriculture on shelterbelt planting and that would be a good place to start re what trees etc. are best able to cope with things like chinooks.
