DEFINITION of 'Abacus'
1. A calculation tool used by sliding counters along rods or grooves, used to perform mathematical functions. In addition to calculating the basic functions of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, the abacus can calculate roots up to the cubic degree.
2. A semi-annual accounting journal published and edited by the University of Sydney. Published in 1965, this journal covers all areas of accounting.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Abacus'
It is believed that the abacus was first used by the Babylonians, as early as 2,400 B.C. Since that time, the physical structure of abaci have changed. However, the idea has survived almost five millenia, and is still being used today.
The Chinese and Japanese use different finger techniques with their abaci. The Chinese use three fingers (thumb, index, and middle) to move the beads; while the Japanese only use their thumb and index fingers.

Please note, Foxtrot Oscar is closed for refurbishment until 2015.
This might be the first restaurant from Gordon RamsayTM to be an underachiever. Its not that Foxtrot Oscar is a bad restaurant its an adequate neighbourhood place its just that its so lacking in soul and the food is so unremarkable that you wonder why you didnt stay home and cook instead. A bistro called Foxtrot Oscar has been plodding along on this site since 1980, run by an avuncular old Etonian called Michael Proudlock. Last year Gordon Ramsay Holdings bought Mr Proudlocks venture, something apparent when you book a table (a receptionist now insists on taking a mobile number for confirmation). After a long refurb we now have an inoffensive little place, decorated like a Jurys Inn meeting room, turning out dull food much in the mould of the old Foxtrot Oscar. Mr Proudlock is still there, on our visit doting on old regulars. The menu reads like a 1970s dinner party menu in places, from the prawn cocktail (oddly bland Dublin Bay prawns) through blanquette of lamb (a bit like Irish stew, but the sauce had an oddly floury texture) to chocolate tart. The days special of foie gras and veal burger sounded interesting but just wasnt as good as the normal burgers sold at contemporary chains such as Hamburger Union or Ultimate Burger: the bun had too little texture, the meat not enough flavour, the chips were pale and the Caesar side salad was little more than a few dressed lettuce leaves. The Ramsay gastropubs have cleverly reinvented old British dishes but Foxtrot Oscar seems to be recreating the dishes of the 1970s, not improving them. Things have moved on a lot in the past 30 years, mostly for the better. And Foxtrot Oscar, new Ramsay brigade or not, is just not keeping up. PS Later in 2008 Foxtrot Oscar was refurbished but the opening hours and days were reduced.

We just went to FO by mistake [thought we were going to THE Gordon Ramsay restuarant but turns out it's on the same road and just not open at the weekend oops! I was a glorious sunny day but we were marched downstairs to the basement - no windows! Coats hung up in the corner messily! Messily dressed stagg [but nice and friendly]. Awful Formica tables and a gross formica covered green post in the middle of the restaurant and DISGUSTING FILTHY toilets! Pubes and dust round the back of the toilet and a dirty sink. No attention to detail. Dark horrible little pit and rubbish decor [can't believe I read here that it's been refurbished??!]. The food was nice but nothing I haven't had elsewhere [in nicer surroundings], but for us, the ambience and decor is as important as the food. We couldn't wait to get out of there! Will never go again. But we LOVED Gordon Ramsay @ Hospital Road with michelin star and will make sure we book in there properly next time! Gordon - you are in danger of becoming a fast food chain with the rate of aquisition and lack of attention to detail your holdings are displaying. Sort it out. Bread Street for example looks great but is over priced and serves cold red wine [and no, it wasn't supposed to be]. We will check out your new Lounge bar and restaurant in Battersea, but you have a long way to go impress us once more!
A first, and possibly last, visit to a Gordon Ramsey restaurant. Given the way Mr Ramsey has marketed himself, one would expect to eat something that exceeds mediocre. The main and desserts were disappointing - I could honestly prepare something much more flavoursome, interesting and sophisticated with my eyes closed at home, not to mention the presentation of the dishes. I love food and cooking, but I am not a professional, so when I go to a place with Gordon Ramsey's name on it, I'd expect to be a little bit impressed. The service was overbearing; the decor - 'try hard' comes to mind. We were seated downstairs, while the top floor was empty. I would not object to this ordinarily, however, the stairs were ridiculously steep and I am 9 months pregnant, due in a few days - how is this good customer service, especially in light of the fact that the ladies' room was upstairs! An overall review needs to include a comment on the bathrooms - acceptably clean, however, very very small and did not include anything to dry hands with - paper towels, hand dryer perhaps? I would not recommend this place to anyone. I think you're better off spending your money at Nando's...and Mr Ramsey should perhaps think twice before lending his name to restaurants.
A mundane experience in the competitive restaurant scene in London. My group of 6 were mixed, but I will not be returning.
Perhaps the writers of the article should have another look it. Somebody seems to have sabotaged it, and stolen the punctuation. And the grammar.
I got some groupon vouchers to try this restaurant out and was pleased with my visit. I enjoyed the food, which was cooked exactly as requested and I was very happy with the service. The restaurant was very small which I was dubious about on entering but the staff worked so well together and we enjoyed the way in which they served us - great personalities and engaging enough to make you smile or laugh but not intrusive. I would definitely go back, even if just to try and fathom out the choices of some of the art work on the walls........ One important note for all you ladies as I am sure you will be asking... the toilets (small and compact) were very nice and to a high standard. In fact, a lot of attention has been placed on picking quality fittings throughout which helps to make you feel special in such a small restaurant. :)

Salvia argentea
I have a couple of S. argentea that I would like to propagate. Betsy Clebsch talks about letting them go to seed in order to get new plants. Unfortunately, allowing them to flower and set seed also shortens their life. Anyone have any experience or suggestions for asexual propagation? Also, can these plants be crossed with any other Salvia species?
If you have a couple...........let one go to seed, and dead-head the other! Even with dead-heading, this Salvia can still behave as a biennial. Sure you are aware, but take maximum precautions against slugs and snails, it is their S. divinorum!
Asexual propagation is not easy with this species...can be done from new shoots, but success rate not good.
Re crossing, certainly possible if you grow other Salvias from similar regions...Eastern Europe and North-West Africa ...in close proximity.
Grown from seed, flower spikes appear in the 2nd year.
I second what Robin has said, but add that in Denver and the rest of the Front Range of the American Rocky Mountains, it behaves as a true perennial. Some plants have reached 15 and even 22 years!
The Eurasian steppe sages do fabulously there. This means those from the central plateau of Turkey, Iran, as well as Russia and the former Soviet states to the west of India.These can be very hard to do on the east coast of the USA, especially the subtropical southeastern states.

Have you rubbed your dog's ears today? Sure you have. It's one of those things that we do almost mindlessly, relishing their velvety softness and our dogs' groans of pleasure. But did you know that rubbing your dog's ears is also a great way to make sure they're healthy?
Think about it. If the ears are healthy, you can tell that your dog enjoys having them rubbed. If they're tender from an infection or injury, he probably pulls away from you, unwilling to have them touched. So just gently massaging your dog's ears is a great first step toward checking their condition. If you notice that he's sensitive about having them touched, it's time to take a closer sniff.
Yes, I said sniff. Healthy ears don't have an odor. Make a habit of sniffing your dog's ears, starting when he's a puppy, so you'll know how they smell normally. If his ears smell yeasty or downright stinky, it's likely that a bacterial or yeast infection is brewing.
Now take a look inside his ears. The skin should be nice and pink with a light coating of pale yellowish wax. A small amount of wax is part of the ear's self-cleaning system. If the ears look red or have a dark brown or black discharge, or if your dog frequently shakes his head, paws at his ears or rubs them against the carpet or furniture, he needs a visit to the veterinarian to see what's causing the problem.
How do you know if your dog's ears need to be cleaned? If they look and smell good, leave them alone. As long as your pooch's ears are healthy, they don't need to be cleaned. In fact, cleaning a healthy ear can damage its self-cleaning abilities.
Clean the ears if they have a mild odor and you see an occasional head shake. That may be enough to stop an infection before it takes hold. You should also clean the ears if the wax looks dirty gray instead of golden or if the ears look waxier than normal. When too much wax builds up, it can block airflow in the ear and lead to an infection of the outer ear canal.
To clean the ears, tilt your dog's head downward with one hand and squirt a gentle cleanser recommended by your veterinarian into the ear, filling the canal. Holding the ear closed, give it a nice massage, really squishing the cleanser around in there. That softens any gunk inside. A number of new products include soft application tips and clever devices to apply just the right amount of product.
Now step back and let your dog shake. (You might want to hold a towel up between you so you don't get splattered.) Wipe away any remaining cleanser with soft, dry gauze or tissue, not going any deeper than your first knuckle.
That's all you need to do. Don't mess around with cotton-tipped applicators. They can drive dirt and debris deeper into your dog's ear. And whatever you do, don't clean ears with alcohol or witch hazel. They dry the ear out and can sting if your dog has abrasions inside his ear.
Take your dog to the veterinarian if the signs — or smells — continue or worsen after you clean his ears. He may need a deep cleaning and a course of antibiotic drops or ointment to resolve the infection.
Some dogs are ear infection magnets. If you have a floppy-eared dog or any dog with a history of ear problems, check his ears weekly. There's no scientific evidence that dogs with droopy ears have more ear infections, but anecdotally they tend to be the ones veterinarians see more often with ear infections. That said, allergies are probably the main cause of ear problems, and they are seen in dogs with all ear types.
Your best bet for preventing ear infections is to keep your dog's ears clean and dry. Bacteria and yeast love a warm, moist environment. Keep them at bay by drying your dog's ears thoroughly after a swim or bath.

Quiz: Remember the definition of mal de mer?
machine for driving tunnels in soft ground, especially under rivers or in water-bearing strata. The problem of tunneling under a river had defied the engineering imagination for centuries because of the difficulty of preventing mud and water from seeping in and collapsing the tunnel heading. In 1818 Marc Isambard Brunel, an emigre French naval officer in England, observed the action of a tiny marine borer, the shipworm, whose shell plates permitted it to bore through timber and push the sawdust out behind it. Brunel built a giant iron casing, or shield, that could be pushed forward through soft ground by means of screw jacks, while miners dug through shutter openings in the face

Historical Traveler Reviews The Fylde International Blackpool
Eine wunderbare, einladende, famili�re Atmosph�re. Saubere und frische Zimmer und erstklassiges Essen. Wir konnten uns frei im Haus bewegen und f�hlten uns, als seien wir mehr als nur G�ste. Toller Barbereich, in dem wir uns entspannen konnten, w�hrend die Kinder Billard oder andere Spiele gespielt haben, die es hier zur Auswahl gab. Werden auf jeden Fall wiederkommen und es an Familie und Freunde weiter empfehlen.
Andrea's Hen Weekend
A weekend in Blackpool at the Fylde Hotel - you just cant book better. I was assisted by Vicky (the proprietor) over a period of 6 months to ensure all the Henette's and the Hen had a weekend to remember. I could not fault this hotel - with the exceptional service of the staff who dont believe anything is too much to ensure you have what you need - or to point you in the right direction for that special restaurant or show. From the moment we arrived, and hit the bar on the lower floor with seating and pool table, we were looked after - just like being at home only with better service, no cooking and a fully stocked bar with all of our favorite tipples, (as Vicky asked us in advance what we would like). Due to people arriving at different times, we ate at the hotel Friday night - the food is wonderful, there should be a calorie warning on some of the puds - but yum yum. Breakfast, with all the trimmings, set us up for the day, with a special request for a roast on Sunday being met with a smile - and very enjoyable it was too (and oh that treacle pud with custard). The rooms are clean, comfortable and stylish. The lounge with its leather sofas is a great place to hang out and read the papers that are available, or watch the TV or chat to your friends. If you are going to Blackpool - do yourself a favour and call the Fylde Hotel and enjoy the hospitality.
This hotel was an excelent place to stay, it is situated in an ideal quiet location, a 5-10 minute walk from the promenade, and the main shopping centre/arcades.
The people who own the hotel could not have made us feel more welcome if they tried, they were very friendly,
The hotel itself was imaculate, The food was all homecooked and excellent.
It was a pleasure to stay in.
We had an amazing weekend away in Blackpool which was partly due to the wonderful family who own the Fylde and the warm, comfortable atmosphere of their hotel. It was almost like staying with relatives - delicious home cooked breakfasts, comfy sun room with books, freeview and two gorgeous sleepy cats!
Our room was on the ground floor and absolutely spotless, as was the bathroom. All very tidy and hygenic. The rooms are light and airy, they have done a top job redocorating.
Well worth the fee per night (unlike some chain hotels I won't name). Will definitely return and will recommend to others.
Absolutley Perfect
For anyone wanting the perfect break in Blackpool, the Fylde hotel will suite all tastes as the perfect place to stay.
The hotel itself is very nicley decorated, the breakfast room and bar are of a good size so you dont get that cramped feel, the rooms are very light and airey and modernly decorated with a good size en-suite shower with fresh towels available. The hygiene standards of the hotel are extremley high, and most importantly the breakfast is one of the best fry ups i've ever had with an assortment of cereals and juices available aswell.
The owners of the Fylde are extremley friendly and welcoming and made myself and my friends feel very much at home in the hotel.
I very much intend to return to the Fylde hotel upon my next visit to Blackpool.
10/10 for everything.
Excellent Hotel, Friendly Service, Really Good Value, Very Clean
We stayed for a weekend. We had a wonderful stay. The rooms are really nice and clean and looked great.
Excellent service. Breakfasts were delicious as well. The staff are really friendly.
We enjoyed spending time in the bar before going out on the town, which was just a short walk away.
I will definatly stay at the Fylde Hotel next time I come to Blackpool.
A great wee hotel.
I have just returned from a 2 night break and i must say the Fylde is
a really nice hotel, the hosts couldn't do enough for us. Myself, wife, son, his freind and my father all had a very relaxing time, the
rooms were modern and very clean, the inter-connecting room was a big
plus, the sun lounge was nice and comfy with a dvd, freeview and loads of books to read, the bar was fine and the drinks were very reasonabily priced, there was also a pool table and plenty of board games which the kids liked, plenty of choice for breakfast, bar snacks and evening meals were avialable if you wanted them. I would have no hesitation recommending this hotel to my family, freinds or anybody as the hosts made our stay very pleasant indeed.
Scunthorpe United v Blackpool
Lovely decorated, well maintained and ideally situated.
Welcomed on arrival by Kate, Allan & Vicky, the service was superb from start to finish.
We ate at the hotel both nights of our stay, Mum & I enjoyed every minute of our weekend at the hotel thanks to the owners who were very good hosts.
The room was freshly painted and had an ensuite shower which was brilliant
The conservatory had comfy sofas and a tv to watch.
It was a 10 minute walk to the seafront/Blackpool tower and to the variety of shops and bars.
The hotel has its own bar with pool table, pinola and of course drinks.
We sat in the front garden in the sun on the chairs provided and watched all of the Scunthorpe united fans walking up the street.
There was sufficient parking at the hotel too.
Would highly recommend this hotel and tell my friends about it.
YamYams On Tour New Years Eve 2006
A really wonderful hotel extremely friendly family who really make you feel welcome. The hotel is very cheap for what you get the rooms are wonderful very comfortable with your own bathroom!!! which you don't normally get from a hotel in Blackpool!!!!, the bar is well stock and the prices are again very reasonable it is on average �2 per pint and 3 bottles for �5. The hotel boasts a class breakfast, wicked bar which is underground, part of it has been turned into a games room with a pool table and a couple of fruit machines/ games and class owners. The atmosphere is again very relaxed and laid back and would recommend to anyone going to Blackpool to choose the Fylde Hotel. I would just like to finally say we had a wicked New Year in Blackpool and was made even better by the hospitality the owners offered at the Fylde Hotel Thanks Again.
Love the Lads and Lassies From Dudley.
A great hotel!
Owned and run by the lovely Easley family the Fylde Hotel is a little gem. High quality service, comfortable beds and a warm welcome was all on the menu for our weekend away.

The 13th Sign

What if there was a 13th zodiac sign?
You're no longer Sagittarius, but Ophiuchus, the healer, the 13th sign.
Your personality has changed. So has your mom's and your best friend's.
What about the rest of the world?
What if you were the one who accidentally unlocked the 13th sign, causing this world-altering change, and infuriating the other 12 signs?
In this book by Kristin O'Donnell Tubb, Jalen did it, and now she must use every ounce of her strength and cunning to send the signs back where they belong. Lives, including her own, depend upon it.
Kristin O'Donnell Tubb's novel, Selling Hope, garnered terrific reviews, including a star from Booklist, who said, "Tubb deftly ingrains a thoughtful ethical question into the story, but never overdoes it in this bouncy tale populated by a terrific cast of characters." Kristin lives in Tennessee with her family.
Praise for The 13th Sign:
"An original, action-packed plot, a resilient heroine, a twist ending and 12 sly, angry Keepers will hold readers on edge. The ultimate astrological fantasy." —Kirkus Reviews
"The swiftly paced plot will please readers used to Hunger Games–style action." —Booklist
"An engaging, fast-paced adventure through both the streets of New Orleans and the astrological map of the sky." —BCCB

dwarf cone/pyramid shaped evergreen
I will have my new deck built in about 2 weeks, I am planning on planting evergreens and shrubs as the main landscape around the deck and in front of the house. I am having a difficult time finding descriptions of evergreens that stay smaller than 6 feet tall and 3 feet wide...are there such trees? And what shrubs go well with those? Finally, can I just plant any evergreen I like and use hedge shears to keep it the particular shape and size I want? Thanks - Karrie
The Dwarf Alberta Spruce (Picea glauca Conica) is a miniature, cone-shaped tree that grows very slowly (2 to 4 inches per year) and rarely needs pruning. Height: 4 to 6 feet. Its dense, bright green foliage makes it attractive and is primarily a novelty specimen plant - even good for containers.
There are dwarf and miniature forms of many evergreens and conifers. Google Picea or Pinus or Thuja or Juniper or Taxus, etc.
And as with any shrub or growing thing, if you don't care for its natural shape, shear it into what ever you do like. I don't know what it is, every spring some folks turn into Edward Scissorhands and orbs on a stick and meatballs appear across the land.

New Items on Third Friday...Primitive Handmades Mercantile
I hope this finds you enjoying a wonderful Summer evening! We had a lovely day today, the clouds parted, sun was shining and the temp was just perfect!! We truly enjoy our blue sky here in the Pacific Northwest, they have been far and few between, but when they do make an appearance, well...we get just giddy around here!!
Please stop by our Third Friday at Primitive Handmades Mercantile, we have been very busy creating!! For my post, I have made two fabric covered boxes with a pincushion topper. They come with a pair of reproduction scissors. I have added rusty pins, mop buttons and pins. Perfect size to store all your sewing needs. I have made three primitive angels, each with burlap skirts and wings, I have added vintage coverlet pieces to accent, vintage clothespins and spun flax for their hair. They are securely attached to vintage wooden spindles that I purchased while antiquing with my sis in Minnesota. Once again, I hope you are enjoying a lovely Summer, stop by the Mercantile and see what our ladies have been up to!
Primitive Blessings,

I just adore my Grand babies, and try to spend as much time as I can with them, they are truly my pure joy! I still keep busy with my primitives, and try to keep my deadlines current for both my TDIPT and Primitive Handmades Mercantile. I know if I didn't have those dates to keep me motivated, well, I wouldn't get much done! I have just finished another hooked rug, I wish I had more time to "hook", it is so relaxing, and brings so much joy!! I have also been trying to read more!! I used to be an avid reader and have felt guilty I have not kept up with it, my sweet husband gave me a Kindle for Christmas, I am doing my best to read a little every night! My sweet Grand babies love Dr Seuss! So Grandma gets some reading time during the day too! :) I want to thank each and everyone of you who stop in from time to time! I am giving away a sweet little strawberry pin keep! I just love making them! I would love for someone out there to win this,along with the strawberry pin keep I will add some "extra" primitive goodies :), I love surprises, don't you!! So all you need to do is leave a comment!

Our Newest Addition
Motherhood's Reward
She rocks another baby...
hums an age-old lullaby.
She hopes no one is watching
as with thanks, she starts to cry
Remembering the time
when the babies were her own,
And her mother told her gently
too soon they would be grown.
Lots of bedtime stories,
skinned knees, and tears to dry,
Teddy bears, toy trucks and dolls
and kites up in the sky.
First days of school, first loves, first cars,
the proms, the wedding days,
Sand castles and snowball fights
and teaching them to pray.
Now, as she holds her grandchild
and gives thanks unto the Lord,
She knows to be a grandma
is motherhood's reward!
Our little Grandson, Bryce Phillip Holland has brought us so much joy!! We are so happy to welcome him to our family, such a joy!! I posted this poem when my Granddaughter was born, and I had to post again!! It says exactly how I feel, what a wonderful reward for a Mother.......to become a Grandmother!!
We are blessed!!

Facility designed to recover 95 percent of recyclables and convert organic waste into CNG.
Ground broke on July 17 on what developers are calling a revolutionary materials recovery facility (MRF) developed by Plantation, Fla.-based Infinitus Energy for the Montgomery, Ala., community designed to eliminate up to 85 percent of waste headed to the city's landfill. The Infinitus Renewable Energy Park at Montgomery (IREP at Montgomery), will be the first facility to combine several of the most technologically advanced systems available for waste recovery to create an advanced integrated waste recovery facility. Eugene, Ore.-based Bulk Handling Systems (BHS) designed, engineered, and will manufacture and install the MSW recycling system.
IREP at Montgomery will feature the latest in screening, air and optical sorting technology. The $35 million, 81,992-square-foot facility is expected to be operational by June 30, 2014. It is designed to process up to 225,000 tons of waste annually, and recover an estimated 95 percent of recyclables. In Phase II of the project, BHS subsidiary Zero Waste Energy (ZWE), Layfayette, Calif., will install its SmartFerm anaerobic digestion system to convert organic waste into compressed natural gas (CNG) and compost.
The high-tech facility brought together leaders in the recycling and recovery industry from all over the world. BHS designed, engineered and is manufacturing and installing the turnkey facility. In-Line Tri-Disc technology from BHS and In-Flight Sorting technology from Nashville-based NRT will provide industry-leading separation efficiency and recovery rates. The facility will also feature air separation technology from global leader Nihot, an Amsterdam-based company with more than 750 operational reference facilities throughout the world.
"The United States alone produced approximately 250 million tons of waste in 2010. The exponential increase in waste over time creates a sustainability crisis if we don't dramatically alter the current waste model," says Kyle Mowitz, CEO and founder of Infinitus Energy. "Infinitus Energy is delivering an economical 'big picture' solution to the multiple problems facing our world now and in the future to the City of Montgomery. The Mayor's vision and commitment to our collaboration has made this possible, and we thank him and his capable staff, advisors and consultants in supporting us in our vision for a viable environmental and economical system and for the residents here."
Once the facility is operational, residents will place all trash in one city-issued bin, which will be collected by the city of Montgomery sanitation department, and taken to the Advanced Mixed Materials Recovery Facility at the Renewable Energy Park. There it will be separated using the latest in screening, air and optical separation technologies. The system sorts and recovers commodities such as cardboard, mixed paper, metals, aluminum cans, plastics and wood based on density, size, shape and material composition. Additional sorting will be done by hand at the site. The advanced technology allows the facility to accept a larger variety and volume of potentially recyclable products than other recycling methods.
"The beauty of this project is that residents don't have to do anything differently. All of the separating takes place at the MRF," says Mayor Todd Strange, "and the 25-year partnership the city has with Infinitus ensures that materials will be recycled."
"IREP at Montgomery will provide recovery rates not achievable by single stream recycling programs that rely on residents to sort trash themselves, which addresses the recycling needs of the community without additional capital investment from the city," Mowitz adds. The project will significantly reduce the amount of waste in the city's North Montgomery Sanitary Landfill and extend its operational life by many years. The facility can process up to 225,000 tons of waste per year and municipalities and commercial businesses within a 90-mile radius from the facility may also contract to process their waste at IREP to achieve aggressive recycling rates.
Officials breaking ground on the new IREP Montgomery facility are left to right: City of Montgomery Public Works Director Chris Conway; Montgomery County Commissioner Dimitri Polizos; Hank Hutchinson with Capell & Howard PC; Montgomery City Councilman Richard Bollinger; Montgomery City Council President Charles Jinright; Infinitus in-house counsel Susan Miner; Infinitus COO Angel E. Mendez; Infinitus Energy CEO Kyle Mowitz; Montgomery Mayor Todd Strange; Bulk Handling Systems CEO Steve Miller; Montgomery Area Chamber of Commerce Chairman of the Board Horace Horn; Oppenheimer & Co. (financing arm) Jandra Lubovich; Montgomery County Commissioner Dan Harris; and Alabama Department of Environmental Management Director Lance LeFleur.
"This is a long-term green investment in our city and state. With this project, Montgomery will be seen as a leader and trendsetter in implementing green technology for the benefit of both our residents and our planet," said Mayor Strange. "Diverting tons of material away from landfills and incinerators and turning those materials into valuable resources generates a host of financial, environmental and societal returns."
IREP at Montgomery sits on a 74-plus acre industrial site. The facility is pressurized and all waste is stored inside, thereby not emitting additional odor, contamination or noise to the area. The cost of the materials recovery facility is approximately $35 million. The project will create approximately 110 local jobs.
"This is another great day for Montgomery as we welcome Infinitus Energy to our growing business community," said Montgomery Area Chamber of Commerce Chairman of the Board Horace Horn Jr. "The cooperative spirit among our elected and community leaders makes it possible for us to continue bringing new jobs and innovative businesses such as Infinitus Energy to the River Region."
"Both populations and per capita waste are increasing and landfills across the world continue to reach capacity. Infinitus Energy has a clear vision of how to turn the challenges of waste disposal into an asset," adds Mowitz. "This is leading edge technology that can have a direct impact on the quality of life for residents of the Montgomery community."
Infinitus Energy provides integrated waste processing solutions with economic and environmental benefits for municipalities and companies nationwide. Infinitus Energy specializes in designing, developing, financing, building and operating waste recovery facilities. The company's Renewable Energy Parks address the multiple challenges posed by the volume of waste deposited into near-capacity landfills across the globe. The Renewable Energy Parks convert waste into profitable resources; maximize high value material recovery at a rate of 95-99 percent with no required capital investment from the supplier of the waste stream; and are turnkey facilities managed and maintained by Infinitus.

When to move hyacinths
I bought 3 plants in pots and they've bloomed and green is just about spent. When can I put these in the ground? Also when is the best time to move hyacinths since I have some under a bush that need to be placed elsewhere. Thanks so much for any info you have. I would actually prefer to dig up and keep these bulbs since we will be moving and it's one of my favorites. Is there a way to dry them out and store them to move with us?
No need to wait for the green to go. Just plant them immediately. They should come back next year although the flowers will probably be less densely bloomed than in the pot. I quite like them - they are daintier than the first flowers. My garden is full of hyacinths from years of planting out potted bulbs.
You could probably pot up the ones you want to move 'in the green' too.
Hyacinths, like all bulbs, are dug when the foliage has turned yellow. I wouldn't keep them out of soil longer than 4 months --- but that's a guess. I've never done it.
As Flora said, their second year will have sparser blooms on the stalk. I plant mine 3 per hole because of that. They're slow to multiply so don't get crowded.
Thanks, donnabaskets! That sounds very practical. Can I dig up the ones in the ground that will bloom this spring and do the same thing? Just put them in a bag after they'd "died back" on the green? That would be cool to be able to have some from our place here since they're under a bush and have to be dug up.

Reviews of The Lives of Others 2006
A very good and detailed introspective into the life of people and politics in a personal scale during the separated Germanies, as well as a solid, quiet spy thriller and a character study.
Its a powerful, yet reserved film. The premise is that a East German captain is tasked with wiretapping a playwrights house. Through expert filmmaking, this film sets up the wire tapping premise as well as the characters motivations and development. What makes this a great movie is how a seemingly unreliable character transforms with minimal dialogue. The acting of Ulrich Mühe is phenomenal, giving the audience someone who is in the know to every situation. The movie explores themes of free speech, as well as the how inhuman it is to wire-tap. Overall, its an emotional movie that crafts an interesting historical tale.
Gerd Weisler is a captain in East Germany's notorious secret police, the Stasi. The Lives of Others begins in 1984, an appropriate year, as Big Brother is keeping tabs on just about everyone. Weisler is tasked with bugging the Berlin apartment of the seemingly loyal playwright, Georg Dreyman and his actress girlfriend. Wiesler's exposure to poetry, music and the lives of the artists he is spying on become the catalysts for a mysterious and profound moral transformation in his character.…
The cold war is a bit of a bad topic for me, I've never found it to be particularly fascinating especially when shown on film which seems to draw out the already slow moments even further. The Lives of Others is well regarded which was my reason for watching but if I had known it was during the cold war I probably would have continued to delay watching it. Almost instantly as he establishes his steadfast belief and rigorous method…
"An innocent prisoner will become more angry by the hour due to the injustice suffered. He will shout and rage. A guilty prisoner becomes more calm and quiet. Or he cries. He knows he's there for a reason. The best way to establish guilt or innocence is non-stop interrogation."
The 2007 winner of the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film is the German thriller The Lives of Others directed by Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck. The film follows the professional and…
Top 250 #55 in IMDB
In 1984 East Berlin, an agent of the secret police, conducting surveillance on a writer and his lover, finds himself becoming increasingly absorbed by their lives.
Best German dramatic movie in years.
"…y pensar que gente como usted alguna vez gobernó este país…" con estas sencillas palabras, Georg Dreyman, un exitoso escritor vigilado por la Stasi, emite su juicio sobre la defenestrada clase política que gobernó la hoy desaparecida RDA, República Democrática Alemana, en una de las últimas secuencias de "La Vida de los Otros". Algo que los ciudadanos de muchos países podríamos decir respecto de nuestras propias clases gobernantes. "La Vida de los Otros" es un thriller emocionante y conmovedor sobre…
Espionage and tragic romance were hot topics in 2006, but, no, this isn't "Casino Royale", definitely, definitely not "Casino Royale". This espionage thriller film is even heavier than that, although I don't know how seriously the Europeans can take this film about the colorful topic of Stasi surveillance during the division and partial socialization of Germany. ...Wow, that actually does sound like some pretty deep subject matter, so how did "Sonnenallee" and "Good Bye, Lenin!", two films dealing with this…
This film has a lot to say about German politics and love and much more but I'm not smart enough to go into all that especially on a first watch but I'll tell you this is soooooo good. The late Ulrich Mühe is incredible, the story is gripping as hell, and the film is a technical marvel. I didn't really go in expecting much but it is a must-see.
Os alemans cando se poñen revisionistas, caen no topico do remordemento.
Quitanlle a un as ganas de pertencer á Staatssicherheit.
In East Germany in the eighties, the influence of the Sovjet Union was still present. The communistic regime of the DDR, the Deutsche Demokratische Republiek, has every person registered. Citizens who were negative about the regime or said positive things about the capitalistic West of Gemany, were added to the black list. Which meant you would never get a job again. If you were lucky. Some of them where captivated and questioned for hours. The government was paranoid because they…
Das Leben der Anderen is a simple movie full of complex emotions. Wieler works for the Stasi and is ordered to investigate a writer named Dreyman. Wieler spends hours listening to every detail in Dreyman's apartment and getting himself caught deeper in his life.
This is a movie about loneliness, isolation and above all love. The cinematography and Ulrich Mühe's acting capture the essence of a hollow, cold man, much like a robot, giving into powerful emotions. The silent transformation of Wieler is subtle but strong and the ending is really moving.
An amazing film to watch about dark years of history.
