Mor Loushy's moving documentary "Censored Voices" is based on the Israeli book "The Seventh Day" (Hebrew: Siach Lochamim), in which soldiers who fought in the Six Day War in 1967 talk about their personal experiences and intimate feelings. The interviews were conducted only days after the conflict by writers, including a young Amos Oz and the editor and publisher Avraham Shapira, who were, like the soldiers, Kibbutz members at the time.

R-alpha lipoic acid (also known as R-ALA or thioctic acid) is a sulfur-containing organic acid powerful antioxidant, and an essential component of aerobic metabolism.
Alpha lipoic acid exists in two stereoisomers, the biologically active R-ALA, in addition to S-ALA, which is not produced in the human body. R-alpha lipoic acid is produced synthetically, and chemical manufacturing processes yield both the R- and S- isomers. The pure R- form is more costly to refine, as a result.
Supplementation of R-alpha lipoic acid may help support a healthy metabolism.
Alpha lipoic acid has an unpleasant chemical burning taste. Capsules are generally preferred.
*NOTE: These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.
This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.
What is the difference between: Alpha Lipoic Acid (R-ALA) and Alpha Lipoic Acid (RS-ALA)?
R = Rectus (Latin for Right)
S = Sinister (Latin for Left)
R and S are the stereoisomers for this molecule, alpha lipoic acid.
When you see both RS before a given molecule name it means that it is a racemic mixture of both the Rectus and Sinister stereo isomers and in this case both are also enantiomers.
A racemic mixture is typically 50% of each of two stereo isomers below
The biggest difference between the R and the RS enantiomers of Alpha Lipoic acid is the cost. The R is about 10 times more expensive than the RS. Another consideration you might relate to is the fact that there is about 100 times more RS than R manufactured and consumed nutritionally.
Why would only 1% of alpha Lipoic Acid manufactured be the R? Because its cheaper than the RS.
Is there a difference between the R and the RS such that one would be better nutritionally than the other? Yes. The R is about twice as effective than the RS because the S is basically useless.
Is there a problem with the S such that having it with the R would justify paying 10 times more for the R versus the RS? Maybe. It depends upon what research you read and what you think of the research. Given that almost all the research supporting one camp or the other is theoretical there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of facts supporting either opinion.
My belief is that deciding which to take would depend upon your choice in the matter, and how much money you have to spend. The more money you have to spend on Alpha Lipoic acid the more you would probably want to purchase the R versus the RS. The less money you have to burn on Alpha Lipoic acid the more likely you would choose the RS. Unquestionably, the greatest bang for your buck is with the RS as 99% of Alpha Lipoic acid consuming public would likely concur.

- Review by Nancy on 1/12/2015
The first few days of taking this I just combined it in with a drink. Did okay even though I 'sensed' the chemical hotness of it.
BUT! now I am putting it into capsules because one day a large-ish particle (it does stick together) must have gotten into a laryngeal fold and my eyes teared and teared and throat burned for a long time, LOL... My fault... we are fore-warned about this.
Nevertheless, I am still quite pleased with the quality and results that I am getting. We are taking it with ALCAR too.
- Review by Clarence on 9/9/2014
I ordered l-carnitine by mistake believing it to be something else but learned a synergetic partner than has great use for cognitive increase if taken for a few weeks. This may be only limited to my personal experience but Alpha Lipoic Acid (R-ALA) works great in conjunction with L-Carnitine. Though usually I shy from indorsing I got tremendous results on lumosity.com scores blowing them away consistently. I believe this may help others. I haven't take for more of this combination or any other supplements beyond 5 months, usually shorter and don't know long term side effects.

Madam Speaker: Nancy Pelosi's Life, Times, and Rise to Power
Rodale Books, Apr 29, 2008 - Biography & Autobiography - 344 pages
Unthinkable just a generation ago, Hillary Clinton's run for the presidency and Nancy Pelosi's ascension to Speaker of the House have cast the spotlight on American political women as never before. In the 230 years of this country's history, never has a woman—let alone a mother and a grandmother—risen to such a position of power as Nancy Pelosi did when she assumed her role as the first female Speaker of the House, third in line for the presidency. In Madam Speaker, Marc Sandalow, an esteemed journalist and political analyst who covered Pelosi for decades, offers a richly nuanced portrait of the woman who made history. He charts Pelosi's political roots, honing in on her father, who spent five terms in Congress and stored hundreds of copies of the Congressional Record under her bed, and goes on to examine how Pelosi, who didn't run for political office until she was 47 years old, juggled her family life and fought hard to forge a place for herself in Washington, ultimately becoming one of the most influential voices in our nation.
Based on hundreds of interviews with Pelosi's colleagues, family, and friends—and the Speaker herself—Sandalow culls together insightful anecdotes and political analysis to chronicle Pelosi's meteoric rise and controversial tenure. Madam Speaker illuminates the inspiring life of a woman who has already made history.

Go confidently in the direction of your dreams! Live the life you've imagined. - Thoreau
A blend of the Midwest and East Coast, I am caring, confident and outgoing. I enjoy exploring someplace new in my backyard and beyond. Recently I went skiing at Whistler near Vancouver Canada. It's a great mountain if you've never been. I hope to travel some place warm soon to escape the winter chill - maybe Austin, TX, I've always wanted to visit there. I also want to further explore Asia and South America. I enjoy sports and working out. A baseball game is one of my favorite things to do in the summer. I enjoy being active and I recently bought a road bike. I also love watching college sports and always look forward to March Madness. I tend to want to go out more than to stay in. However on Sundays, I enjoy relaxing, reading the NY Times and cooking a yummy Sunday dinner. I enjoy travel, working out, and my job, however it means it's tough to find time to date. I am on Match to try and find a true connection.

Cape Cod potato chips, that feeling your skin has after a long day at the beach, dark chocolate, boarding a plane, discovering a great book, a glass of Malbec or Sauvignon blanc.
I lenjoy the outdoors, whether it's walking in Central Park or playing tennis, going for a run or going backpacking. I love trying new food and restaurants.
I just started readed Keith Richard's "Life". I love reading the NY Times on Sunday and I'Il always read the travel and real estate sections first. I never get on the subway without my copy of New York magazine.

Gift Of A Heart
Posted Oct 04 2009 11:12pm
The Stephenson family is attempting to pay forward all the kindness they received last Christmas when their 10-month-old daughter received a new heart. Kaidence Stephenson, now 22 months old, was born healthy in February 2007, said her mother, Shauntelle Stephenson. But in August, the Bountiful family learned Kaidence had a serious heart problem On Dec. 23, 2007, a heart from another child was placed inside Kaidence's chest and began beating for her."Words can't express your feelings," said Mike Stephenson, her father. "Your child is going to get a chance at life, while at the same time grief washes over you, because a poor family had to lose a child so yours can live."When the couple learned a heart had been found, they immediately knelt down to pray for the family whose child died."It is a forever bittersweet feeling," said Shauntelle Stephenson."Another family chose to give to save you from the heartbreak of losing your child."That family is in the Stephensons' thoughts daily as they express gratitude for being together this Christmas."You can't beat the Christmas gift we got last year, but we get to be together this year," Mike Stephenson said.The Stephensons count their blessings as they look for ways to return random acts of kindness to neighbors and family members.They said it was the community support that helped them get through the roller coaster ride of their daughter's health problems after her heart condition was discovered. "Meals came in every other night, after we came home until March," Shauntelle Stephenson said. "Our roof was leaking, and we came home to find our neighbors had stripped it and were putting new shingles on. Packages showed up at the doorstep, and a jar full of money with the book, 'Christmas Jar' was there one night."Kaidence's heart problems began following a summer vacation in Idaho.Shauntelle Stephenson took Kaidence and her sons, McCaden, now 7, and Camden, now 4, to visit family in Idaho in July 2007. Everyone came down with a stomach virus."A few weeks later I knew something was really wrong," she said about Kaidence.Her daughter's cry was soft and weak, plus her cough did not sound normal. She took Kaidence to the doctor, who sent her to Lakeside Hospital in Bountiful. They sent her to Primary Children's Medical Center.Kaidence was diagnosed with myocarditis, an inflammation of the middle layer of the heart wall, which is usually caused by a viral infection.In October 2007, the Stephensons realized their daughter was getting worse. She was diagnosed with cardiomyopathy -- an enlarged heart -- which can be caused by myocarditis."She was throwing up all night," Shauntelle Stephenson said.Doctors admitted Kaidence back in the hospital and on Oct. 29 when it looked bleak, Primary Children's medical staff installed outside of her small body a Berlin Heart, a mechanical "bridge-to-transplant" device created for use in pediatric patients. It did the pumping for the left side of Kaidence's heart, her mother said.The hospital had to receive permission from the Food and Drug Administration to use the device for compassionate use, because the agency has not approved it.The equipment was flown in from Germany, and two doctors also traveled from two other countries to Primary Children's to train the medical staff on how to put it in and how to care for Kaidence, Shauntelle Stephenson said."Kaidence was the first one in Utah to use it," she said. The pump was to help the infant until she became healthier or another heart was found for her.Everything was going well, until the right side of her heart started failing in December.The Stephensons knew they had two options: Hook a pump to the right side of the heart or hope for a heart transplant.Now as they prepare for Christmas, the Stephensons can only talk about how grateful they are to have their only daughter home with their sons this year, even though medical bills keep piling up."We have great insurance," Shauntelle Stephenson said. "But a transplant is a financial obligation that never ends. We pay $600 a month in co-pay for her anti-rejection medication. Without insurance it would cost us $10,000 a month."Kaidence is at the age where she's not too sure what Christmas is all about, her parents said. Hanging up high in the tree is an ornament that someday will be special to her.The silver heart with a red-jeweled heart in the center is engraved with 2007 and for now, it is a special ornament for her parents.Kaidence does like the lights on the tree and enjoys candy canes. Her family is not attending as many Christmas events as they have in the past in order to protect the tiny girl from cold and flu viruses that could easily kill her.They have gone to church and school Christmas parties, because they want to show others how well she is doing.But the downside is they worry."Every time someone coughs you're looking over your shoulder, trying to keep her away," Mike Stephenson said. "But everyone else was a part of it, supporting us and encouraging us with all their prayers."Kaidence, who likes to play cars with her 4-year-old brother, has to wear a mask when she does go out. A sign on the door asks visitors to stay away if they have a cough, runny nose or have been around anyone who is ill.And there is always the worry that her body will reject the gift inside her chest."We live every moment the best we can," Mike Stephenson said. "We'll face that stuff if and when it comes. We don't focus on that. We just enjoy every second we got with her.""We've been so blessed, we can't complain," Shauntelle Stephenson said. "This girl has a purpose." And I love her so,so,so much.So every one please,please,please help here,she'spart and my life too,so please help please.

(70 stars)
I rode my first route today and I was quite satisfied with it. Until the end at least. When I was saving my workout, I was asked to rate the app and when I returned to it, my workout and route were gone! This is probably a one-time issue since I've now rated the app, but it was really a disappointment to me.
(70 stars)
Good to use as a training guide
(70 stars)
The ads annoying, GPS refresh rate too slow, the lady sounds horrible, some times would not stop the record even you had slide to finish, thus garbling all ur records. but the new auto save feature is good, is reliable and does not crash.

Accurate and works well with Pandora

The Bradford University Society of Operettas and Musicals – BUSOM for short – performed their 2015 main show last week. Moby Dick! The Musical sees a St. Trinian's-like girls school (complete with headmistress played by a man in drag) putting on a musical version of Herman Melville's novel to save their bankrupt institution; hockey sticks for harpoons and all.
BUSOM's staple poster creator has graduated, moved away, and become very busy. I was picked to work on the main show this year. That meant it was up to me to get that 'play within a play' message across.
First up, posters for the cast auditions. Over the post-Xmas holidays I came up with the below pic, for the production team to surround with the relevant text. This was the birth of Audition Whale, drawn with Illustrator's standard but useful Charcoal brush.
Audition Whale quickly gained fans.

Mayhem # 3321276
About MeHey, hey! My name is Briana Maestas and I'm a very professional and passionate model. I really enjoy modeling and I want to pursue what I love! My goal is to expand my modeling career! I'm a Colorado native, an athlete, and student.
My athletic passions include varsity softball and varsity soccer as a goalkeeper. I tend to put my full heart into things so I look forward to working with you! I'm also open to ideas. I like the idea of artistic photography and will do my best to help create the image you're looking for. I also enjoy glamour shoots, and athletic shoots. I reside in Aurora and would prefer money for travel if the shoot is far and an unpaid shoot. However, I'm very easy going and will work with whatever requests you'd need me to. My personality is fun and easy going. Therefore, I'll try to bring that attitude with me to the shoot! -While being professional of course! If you're interested in shooting with me please contact me and I'd love to arrange something! Have a wonderful day!!
Some shoots/themes I'd be very interested in doing:
-Old truck shoot in the country (or country girl)
-Ke$ha inspired shoot
-Underwater (would be difficult but I love challenges!)
-Wheat fields or meadow
-Beachy shoot
-Coffee shop, cozy
-Always interested in athletic, sporty shoots
-Not comfortable with nudes*
Personally I don't think modeling is about who can show the most skin. A model is beautiful, classy, and sexy in all the right ways!

Customer Reviews:
Rink Rat Identity Krysis Hockey Wheels
Comments: I must admit, Rink Rat's Identity Krysis wheels are extraordinary! Without a doubt, the acceleration and responsiveness will surprise you. I am now able to make tighter turns like never before and have gained more control. I was shocked by how awesome stopping had become.. Hence, what the previous reviewer commented is so true. These wheels are a top performer and will prove themselves one of a kind!
They are the most expensive wheels I have used, but have been worth it.
From: Michael W, FL
Comments: The Rink Rat Identity Krysis are the best wheels I have ever had. I have gone through the original Rink Rat Hornets, Spits Labeda Dynasty, Addictions, Revision Variant Plus, and for 4 tourny games the horrible Eschelon wheels. I have never had wheels that will let me turn as tight as these wheels will being sticky the whole way through. Not only will they let you turn tighter than you ever have before but they almost explode out of the turn giving you an add speed bust. At the same time I can by changing the angle of your foot you can stop on a dime. Normally when wheels work this good they wear out fast but I have four games on them and around 25-30 games ref'd on them. Yes yes I know us refs do not skate that hard when we are working but it is still wear and tear on the wheels and the wheels are still just as sticky as the day I bought them.
Con: The price point is high but they are worth every dime.
FYI I had to pay for my set no freebees for me.

Some of craftycheryl's painted windows
Here are some of Cheryl's awesome windows she has done...
Here is a link that might be useful: craftycheryl window's
Cheryl - those windows are "WONDERFUL." May I ask, what kind of paint are you using - enamel, Gallery Glass? I used enamel on mine and when held up to the sunlight, you can see the lines of the paint strokes, etc. Although not too bad to look at, to make it more appealing, I would paint the other side as the front. Your answers would be greatly appreciated.
I just used enamel paints, then did a clear polyurethane over the whole pane. I did get some glass gallery paints for 25 cents apiece, and am going to try them on a geometrical pattern. I thank you for the compliments, as I am having great fun doing these. I think that if you try to blend colors, you will find that you don't have the streaking and I always do 2 coats. Good Luck on your next project.
I cant seem to see anything whenever i try to view the sight either.
I also paint on old windows, i use acylic paints, and i do alot of the primitive scenes, i also do them of animals, and the beach.
If anyone is interested in more information please email me at email@example.com anytime
Thanks and have a wonderful day
I found her site.
Here is a link that might be useful: craftercheryl's windows
Hello to all. It's been a while since I have been on this page. Sorry you all had trouble finding my pictures. It looks like the spelling of my memeber name was wrong. I thank you all for the kind words about my windows. I have since done a stained glass lighthouse window complete with seagulls and a sun. I will put that on my mosaic page.
Hi CrafterCheryl, Yes I noticed that I had spelled your name wrong. I kept trying yesterday in Photobucket to find you than I realized I had your name spelled wrong. Sorry about that. (That's one of the reasons I guess I should have had my glasses on) Gonna go and see your new window. Sounds really neat.

Sharon, one more done
I finished one more of the tops you sent me. This one will go to one of my techs who is having a hard time right now.
Hi Beverly,
I just wanted to comment on your awesome looking quilt! I really like those colors you used. I grew up in the mountains and come from a family of farmers and have a great appreciation and love of quilts. The art and all the love that goes into them. They are really something special to have.
Thanks Cliff. Wish I could take credit for the top, but Sharon (geezerfolk) actually put it together, I just quilted. We do thank you for your comments.
I come from a country family too. My grandparents farmed, and my parents grew up farming. Dad joined the Air Force to get away from farming, then moved back when he retired. Just can't get away from it.

Life's misadventures have found a whole existence of their own on a smattering of strange but true adventure television channels, which run show titles like Banged Up Abroad, Don't' Tell My Mother, Seconds from Disaster and Air Crash Investigation.
I can tune back my memory to those 1970s disaster movies such as The Towering Inferno and Poseidon Adventure. Sure, some perished so that others could survive. Maybe we lived in more innocent times, as we all know what happened in the more latter day Perfect Storm.
Yes they all died.
Hope does spring eternal, though I'm writing this at 32,000 feet in the air, and a series of bruising bumps just sent the big red flight attendant flying down the aisle. Never mind, as I play out a bizarre mid-air survival story, which could land me my very own episode in TV Land.
But I had started this article with purpose. Perhaps the turbulence has misplaced my mind for the moment. Yes, someone just turned on the bright reading light above me and brought me back to my senses.
Rarely does a succession of two weeks pass by when I don't receive a call, email or visitor in my office by a budding property developer who came upon a great notion and bought a piece of land. Sure, plans are often hatched in prison cells, smoky bars or else by Richard Nixon types in dark suits.
Visual aids are often provided such as tattered copies of land title deeds, matrix like design drawings of a labyrinth maze (I can never tell exactly which side is up), or else PowerPoint presentations by the really sharp people.
Certainly I feel like the realestate statue of liberty - welcoming those to America like the homeless, those without a country and some who really should seek some type of mental counseling.
But I digress and frankly speaking I do open my door to one and all, without favor or bias no matter how bizarre the scheme they may have plotted over the midnight oil.
In more cases than I can even recall with my age-shatteredmemory and short attention span, oftentimes the dream project is located somewhere just south of Neverland. Obscure locations, unrealistic proportions and little business sense is involved - just going by gut feel.
As my eyes glaze over, punctuated by non-offensive terms like "that's an interesting idea" (i.e. "Have you lost your mind?") to "hmm, now you are really thinking out of the box" (i.e.
"what box-like mental institution did you escape from recently?").
In some cases, be they rare, the idea is a good one and it does go on to make money. But, for the most part, the closing door only cues my inner cynic who cries out, "obviously you didn't think this one through".
Property is not the only domain of the rash, spur of the moment businessperson who lands in paradise and expects to double down in the dream life. Some buy beer bars, others are budding entrepreneurs and, frankly speaking, I have more time for this whole lot who get off the couch than the legion of sniping internet forum grouchaholics.
But, please, if you are out there and reading this, just come to my office and give me all of your money. Don't buy that island agricultural property which will surely be upgraded any minute, or entrust your life savings to a business nominee. Not only will you save all of the aggravation and torment of failure and an e xtended journey on the road to ruin, but you can enrich my life substantially.
What was it Nike said - do the right thing? Or was it the 'right stuff'. I don't know, as even Lance Armstrong looks to be headed down a one-way street these days.
Anyway for those of you who do have great ideas, my best advice is this. Study the market, learn the business and know there is no short cut to success.
There is most likely a reason why your innovative idea was never brought to market before - because is makes no sense.
I'm sorry if I have offended anyone here, but I, unlike you, I did think this through.

Just once id love to read about the awesome new rpg game that is actually released and not some December 2015 release kickstarter or some half baked early access demo
Yeah. The early access stuff really floods the steam front page. Kinda sucks. I don't like waiting years for games, even when they're high tier budget, I hate waiting around and getting my hopes up. Never know which games are gonna suck.

That is why I don't really use steam to much anymore. A year or two I would talk all about steam and how amazing it is... Since the indie crazy and early access...What is the point.
The PC gets like 10 good multiplats a year and who knows how terrible the port job is. It has indies crawling all over it. (some are good but honest, most are bad) Honestly what I thought PC gaming stood for isn't the same anymore. Most people I know run mid-teir hardware that's like 20% better than a console..WOW BIG DEAL THAT IS lol.
TLDR: I complained like a child. If you read all that..I feel sorry for you. Some of my points are kinda right though.
Ill take early access games over AAA rehash crap year after year any day.

How does Early Access effect you from using Steam at all? You can sort games anyway you like on Steam and they're not forcing you into buying any Early Access games.
PC gaming stands for freedom to do what you want, and yes you do rant like a child.

I don't fund early access and kickstarter projects. God knows I'm tired of seeing the features list of a game being dictated by how many people pledge money. Moreover, Kickstarter has become a graveyard of "me too!" clone games and attempts to sell mediocrity to you based on your nostalgia for something they had no hand in making from fifteen years ago.
I'm very interested in the new Divinity, but I'm not going to give them early access money.

Not gonna lie I had like 5 giant paragraphs wrote to respond to this, I've seen you post and you seem cool so I would rather I keep it that way...
I just have problems every single time I game..steam updating, drivers crashing, skype messing up and steam not connecting and honestly that is the beginning. Freedom at the cost of time isn't exactly something I'd call good. Why doesn't steam have HD bitrate party chat?
Almost every single time I log into steam all I see up front and center is indies, bad AAA and early access and then the shovelware...omg the shovelware lol.
If it wasn't for watching things like Tech Syndicate I'd have never known about gems such as System Shock 2..IMO better than half life. Why isn't that up front, all the little gems. Nope, dayz and some 8 bit platformer.
I just think steam is incredibly powerful and they are using it less than perfect. Not saying to get rid of the other stuff but freaking chill out on it. It went from a few here and there to 75% of everything.
I believe the answer you are looking for is "no."
Life is normally too short to purposely seek out things you hate, but apparently that rule doesn't apply on the Xbox One board.

Seeing as the only reason that 'awesome RPG' or whatever even exists in the first place is thanks to crowd funding, and they need to be able to pay their bills during development, you should probably just suck it up and deal with it.

aphids'ville, daddy-o
I've just brought all my plants inside for the winter. I washed all roots and repotted (most are Brugmansia trees). I currently use a 1000W HPS and a 1000W MH bulb in a room 10'x10'. My problem is that, in creating an environment for these trees, I've also built a home for billions of aphids, and maybe hundreds of spider mites (haven't counted those..yet). I went through 1L of end-all insecticide today. It worked for short periods last year, but I have at least triple the foliage this year than I did last. What can I do? I need to eliminate this threat before I go batty. Has anyone had any success with predatory insects? I ordered a bunch of ladybugs a month back, but they all flew into the lights and died. Kinda funny, but not very effective. Please, if anyone has any ways of killing the bugs once, then their larvae, then preventing them from coming back, I would be internally/eternally grateful. Thank you much.
Heavens above, spider mites are *bad* news. They are my personal nemesis!! Aphids, once they get out of control, are bad too. Two winters ago I lost my entire growing room to those two insects. I tried beneficials to no avail. My ladybugs did the same thing yours did--I couldn't help but laugh, then started to cry. I tried gallons of avid miticide and poisoned my lungs with various other insecticides/miticides. Reet, I'm sorry to tell you this, but throw out your plants and run for your life. In my experience there is no winning this battle. Attempting to fight will only prolong your insanity and spread the bugs to every other plant in your entire household. I'm so sorry!
I have found aphids and mites are both fairly easy to control.
Aphids are particularly easy to kill with insecticides. You might want to try a systemic insecticide to get 100% kill on an indoor collection although systemics aren't generally needed for aphids. Indoors without natural predators, even a single aphid can start a population explosion.
Mites are not so easy to kill but you can control them by maintaining good humidity in the growing area. Knock back the populations if you have a serious infection and then spray the plants regularly with water, or maintain wet pebble trays to keep up the humidity. Mites don't like the wet and your plants will love it. I find the main problem with mites is that they cause serious damage before I spot them.
I have a similar grow room but not as much wattage for my lights. I found that most of the aphids were on a few hibiscus buds. I sacrificed the buds (painful but worth it in the long run) by cutting them off and immediately placing in the outdoor garbage, then spraying what was left.
As for the mites, they were much less severe when I put a humidifier in the grow room. The HID lights really dry out the air. I got a cool mist humidifier, Hunter brand with the permawick filter that never needs replacing.
I ended up spraying every month or so with neem oil for aphids and whiteflies and just living with a few mites. This year I am going to spend outrageous amounts of money for some Malathion granules (what we use professionally for just about all bugs except mites) and use that.
I'm just fiddling around and stopped by for a read, but is it your intention to flower your Brugs all winter long?? If you do not care about flowers for the winter months then these are very easily overwintered if you just stop watering, put them in the basement and forget about them...maybe water once a month to just keep the soil the tiniest bit moist. Once you put them outside next spring they will explode with growth and have a hundred flowers in a few weeks. I finally tossed out a few big ones because I got tired of hauling in these monsters and had more unusual plants that I wanted to keep. Aphids are a pain, but easy to control with just a nice spraying with soap and water once every few days or week depending on how often they show their ugly little faces. Spider mites are really uncommon on most plants, although I had a couple of Arisaema under attack this past summer. Best of luck :o) Dan
get a clean spray bottle and put 2 tea spoons mineral oil to each pint room temp water. shake well and spray as many surfaces of the leaves as possible. repeat in 6 days . then as needed.
the oil smothers them.

Defence Department sells piece of missile defence by mistake
Department had to call in RCMP three years later to recover it when civilian bidder refuses to accept refund.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
In 2009, somebody walked into a government auction in Surrey, B.C., placed a winning bid of $37 on a piece of radar equipment, collected the goods and left, a news report said Friday.
There's a hitch. The $29,000 transmitter was part of a sophisticated missile defence system that the Department of National Defence never intended to sell. The government called in the RCMP to recover the transmitter.
The information was made public after a Freedom of Information request by the Montreal newspaper La Presse uncovered a report sent to Defence Minister Peter McKay outlining the sale and the ministry's reaction to turning over a piece of "controlled" equipment to a civilian.
The buyer's identity hasn't been released, nor is it known what punishment, if any, he or she faced.
According to La Presse, ministry officials realized three years later that a civilian had bought unauthorized equipment, and first offered to reimburse the buyer the $37 auction price. When the buyer refused, the department boosted its offer to $2,000.
The original cost of the wave radar transmitter, before depreciation, was $29,000, La Presse reported.
When the buyer rejected the second offer in May, 2012, the government gave the buyer 48 hours to return the 4.5-kilogram equipment to the ministry.
When the buyer again refused, the government summoned the RCMP, retrieved the radar equipment and returned it to the ministry, La Presse reported.

Leaders of a planned protest against Maiden pastor Charles Worley are scrambling to find a place to demonstrate just two days before thousands are expected to descend on Catawba County.
Organizers say 1,500 to 2,000 people will assemble Sunday morning to protest anti-gay remarks Worley made earlier this month. The pastor of Providence Road Baptist Church suggested locking up lesbians and gays with an electric fence until they die.
Worley's comments have since gone viral on the Internet, and whole busloads are expected to travel to Maiden this Sunday to join the protest.
However, those demonstrators may find themselves with nowhere to go.
After originally planning to protest outside Worley's church Sunday, organizers decided to move the demonstration due to the large crowds expected. Leaders turned their sites on the Catawba County Justice Center, but that option, too, now looks doubtful.

Cucumbers and Zucchini
jrslick (North Central Kansas, Zone 5B)May 8, 2012
With the help of plastic mulch and a warm spring, we planted cucumbers and zucchini outside on April 1st (no joke). They are really starting to take off now. The squash will be blooming in a week or so and the cucumbers are starting to vine.
I also transplanted some zucchini I started on 3/20 in a movable tunnel on April 2nd. We harvested our first zucchini yesterday.
Now if I can just keep the bugs away!
Here are some pics.

eye ball trim
I will be installing 5" recessed cans in the kitchen ceiling. The ceiling has a slight slope, 1" in 12", or about 4.75 degrees. Should I use regular trim, or consider eye ball trim so I can direct the light straight down? Any other considerations with regards to lamp options?
BTW, Lowes has the eyeball trims on sale for 10 bucks.
Yes, and I tryed to put a bulb in that fixture at Lowes and it stuck way out. No wonder it is on sale. I got the recessed 5" can from HD because it is approved for insulation, even though I have no installation around it. I added the halo baffle (think h99RT) (lowes price matched less 10% compared to HD which was a lot cheaper on the baffle). But HD is the only one with that 5" recessed can. And N:Vision 23 watt CFLs from HD. Hope they do not burn out quickly.
Good Luck,
