I've been waiting to slash my wiimote like a light saber. Hopefully you can actually control the saber instead of the zelda way.
ps3 sucks said:
There is no point in buying this game if you played both, but if you haven't then definitely get it. Lego star wars rocks! There's also an extra level on this.
Hey said:
I've not played either, so this will be good.

Yes! Finally, Lego Anakin Skyalker vs Lego Darth Vader. Best video game ever!
InsertPageUp said:
This looks interesting; it's both in one game. Also, you need to add LEGO Indiana Jones to your list of Wii games. I don't see it.
Luigi said:
WOW. I haven't made a post in a long time. Anyway, I love Lego Star Wars. I need this game.
Lay-Z Boy said:
I have both, but still a new level, 23 new characters, new customization parts, both together. I'm getting this for Christmas.

Has anyone got the 'x10' xtra? That would be so cool but take to long to get I think.
davyt 0247 said:
I've got it Dougbill, and it does not take as long as you might think. First buy 2x for the bar and activate it, unlock 4x, buy it, activate cheat. You will now be scoring 8x original value. With all scoring cheats unlocked and activated, the total multiplier is 2684 times.
davyt 0247 said:
There is more than one new level in this game (well one in the original story, more for bonus levels). There is a new lego city (first was in LSW2), new Jedi (including the Twilek Aayla Secura) and other new characters, that includes Indiana Jones.
Luigi said:
I got this game. It's awesome. Except for Yoda, He is so slow! You have to keep jumping with him.
Naruto said:
I'm still playing that game for the Wii, but I didn't know there were new Lego Star Wars characters, bonus levels, x10 extra, new customization parts, and extra levels.

Hi, guys,
Thinking about making a hood or hat in the Patagonian style. (Sorry, best words for what I have in mind.) Just a close-fitting hood with long strings that tie under the chin. Anyone have a pattern? I haven't been able to find one on the net and not sure where to start with the design. Any ideas? Anyone?
Have fun,
Do you get advice/help mostly from books, online sites, local yarn store or friends?
Hey men! Well I've become addicted to knitting babysocks. They're so damn cute I can't stop! (check out the first pair at kilgoretrout.wordpress.com/test) My problem comes in when I turn the heel. Like many sock knitters, I end up with a series of holes going up the gusset as I "turn" the heel. I've tried knitting this tighter in that area, and asked many knitters, but they answer I get is the same: "I have that problem too, not sure what to do, just sew up the holes at the end". Yes yes, sew up the holes, that's what I'm doing. It only takes a few minutes and the finished product looks presentable, but theres GOT to be a way to knit a heel without these holes! any ideas?
Well, here I am learning to blog. LOL. I always find myself learning, sometimes over and over. Some people use the expression "live and learn", well somtimes it is just "live and live and live and live" It takes a bit to sink in.
I am in the middle of an afghan that I am in love with. It is 3 panels, two with cables, and the center one with the trinity stitch. I am over half way done with the center panel and laid it out next to the other one so I could start comparing length, etc. Well I found twoo mistakes in the first panel, but they are going to stay there I just can't frog out the whole thing.
I just joined the group and am so excited to know that there are so many of us out there! The projects that have been posted are really inspiring.
I have only been knitting for about a year now but am totally hooked! I am working on a henley style sweater now and will, hopefully soon, have pictures to post.
Just wanted to drop a quick hello. Not even sure if I have posted this correctly.
Knit on!
Charge up the printer ink and get the paper in the tray...For those of you looking for the Scandanavian Drop patterns these are now available free on-line. I ordered the Drop 85 pattern book and the company very kindly retuned my PayPal payment explaining that in due course the Drop patterns are to be available free online. At the moment they are gradually uploading them (and translating them into English). Not only have I saved £9 but am furiously printing off loads of fantastic patterns! Take note! you have to click on the national flag for the knitting instructions. If you click on the picture you only get an enlarged photo.
Here's a question about decreasing while working with stripes.
I'm decreasing at the top of a hat, knit in the round, entirely in stocking stitch. The hat is striped--4 rounds of each color. The pattern calls for decreasing every-other row, sometimes SSK, and sometimes K2tog.
My question: would it be better to decrease on rounds 1 and 3 of each stripe, or rounds 2 and 4? Or does it matter? I haven't tried it yet, but my guess it that decreasing on round 1 might look funky. Whereas decreasing on round 4 might be okay. Does anyone have experience with this?
Does anyone here teach knitting?
I do 2 or 3 times per week. What I'm really struck by is the amount of people (older than I am) who don't know their right hand from the left nor do they know the names of their fingers, such as index finger, middle finger and ring finger. This gets frustrating when you're trying to teach. I have people say "I use this hand" and show me their right hand or "I use this finger" and show me their index finger.
Any insight?
Hey guys,
I just wanted to fill you all in on a wonderful time had by all at the Madrona Fiber Arts Festival. It was held in Tacoma, Wa last weekend. My friend Lisa and I attended the festival and then guided ourselves through the Pacific Northwest knit shops....from Portland to Seattle. The artists that are all over out there are incredible. Everything from Cashmere rovings felted onto silk scarves to Mongolian Camel hair and beyond! My new favorite knit shop is Tricoter in Seattle.....if you have not been you should treat yourselves. I have more info if anyone is interested you can message me....so we won't have to bore the others not as interested. Thanks for listening!!!
OK, I'm not sure if you can read this or not, but I've attached a file for my sock link below.

Very nice labels!!!
Both are really well done. Clean, simple, well made. Makes me want to take a sip without even seeing the beer
well done....
Very nice. How did you make the grain "grow" from the round border?
Not sure if you were looking for feedback but here goes...
Well done and a good song, The Fields of Athenry. I've never actually seen it written in it's Irish form. I'm not entirely sure how they fit on a bottle but perhaps "Ath Na Riogh" would fit nicely if it were larger and "Irish Red Ale" could flow smaller under it. The archaic font may be a bit hard to read as is and I can see the words having the potential to just run together as is. You could even set "Irish Red Ale" in a more basic serif font to contrast.
Perhaps on the side panel you may want to put a pronunciation in parenthesis as well.
Just some thoughts.
I like them both. My only suggestion for the first one is making the font larger and possibly split into two lines. It looks a bit tall and squished to the eye. Two lines may let the font "breathe" more. I might make the backstory a wee bit larger as well.
I find it far easier than to critique other people's work than actually finish my own.
i like them. especially the first one.

Q. Is Stevia Safe?
Related Articles
A. This year, a few noncaloric sweeteners made from an extract of the Stevia rebaudiana plant arrived on grocery-store shelves. The stevia plant has a long history of use as a sweetener in South America. These new sweeteners—sold under brand names like Truvia and PureVia—include a highly purified extract of stevia called Rebaudioside A (a.k.a. Rebiana or Reb A). Reb A is 200 times sweeter than sugar and does not raise blood sugar.
Until December 2008, stevia and its derivatives could be sold in the U.S. only as dietary supplements, due to safety concerns. In the 1980s, animal studies linked stevia with adverse effects on fertility and reproductive development and possible genetic mutations. But in 2008, the makers of Truvia and PureVia submitted research to the Food and Drug Administration regarding Reb A's safety and petitioned for it to become a generally regarded as safe (GRAS) ingredient.
The FDA affirmed the GRAS status, but did not change the previous ruling on stevia. "Reb A is different than whole-leaf stevia or [other] stevia extracts, which can only be sold as dietary supplements," says FDA spokesperson Michael Herndon. "Nobody has provided the FDA with evidence that whole-leaf stevia is safe."
The Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI), a consumer advocacy group, believes that the Reb A's GRAS status was granted prematurely. "In the past, FDA protocol required repeated testing in two separate animal species prior to approval, but in this case it didn't," says David Schardt, nutrition expert with CSPI. "We are not warning people to avoid Reb A, but the public should be aware that the FDA did not follow all the usual safeguards."
Bottom Line: The FDA considers Reb A a safe sugar substitute, but has not approved other forms of stevia. If you want to use stevia, we suggest sticking with Reb A (look for it on the ingredient label).

If the FDA knew for a fact, that Stevia adversely effected fertility and reproductive development, they would approve it in a heartbeat! Then some high ranking executive from the FDA would get a nice cushy job, with a six figure salary, with whatever company was the major lobbyist for the product.

any brands such as truvia, are not the real stevia and should be addressed. they have dextrose in them, which act as artificial sweetners and effect our brain cells, once the body temperature welcomes it in our inner body, iur neurotransmitters get damaged, when a condition known as excitotoxicity occurs. Just like objects, we have energy flowing through our bodies. Our system is not designed to accept these types of sweeteners. if you would like to find out more, please visit my site divasmasas, go to the stevia section and do some research. good luck matt. www.divasmasas.com
any of the larger stores, you should not give them business for one and with supply and demand theory, they cannot produce the demand nationwide without putting those pesky additives in products. sad but true.

The FDA and UsDA are all crooks. They have absolutely no interest in the health of Americans. I'm disgusted by how they run food stuff and will never trust them or buy ANYTHING approved by them. The Chinese have been using Stevia for centuries and have been avoided by the FDA for just as long. They now are feeling the heat from all the other lab created artificial ingredients that are killing us, so they decide to jump on the Stevia band wagon and then have the nerve to find a way to process more efficiently by adding a bunch of other crap to it. Open your eyes people, boycot, boycot, boycot. Grow a vegetable plot, support locally grown sustainable farms. Don't buy processed or cannd foods. Ef the FDA!

Stevia (Pure stevia not the branded products produced by big ag) is a wonderful substitute for cooking and beverages. We have been using it for years (since around 2001 when we were looking for an alternative to sweetener that wasn't chemical). We use it even more now with one of us on a Paleo diet. As to the reference to Super Size me I strongly recommend watching the movie FatHead and doing some related research. eat at home if you want to eat healthy but eat smart not corn syrups etc (unnatural cornsyrup causes so many problems!) Stevia is economical and while it can't be directly substituted in some recipes it can be used with great success in many. Thanksgiving saw my first effort in sugar and gluten free pumpkin pie with just a wee bit of stevia powder (3/4 tsp of pure) and well.... they want more!!

Oddly enough, Stevia plants grow very well on the Central Coast of CA. Dried and ground up leaves seem to be a very good sugar substitute. Prof. D. Williamson

I've been growing it my garden for years. It really does satisfy a sugar craving on a hot summer day, even my 4 year old daughter likes it. I also just found a new soda called "Zevia" which contains Reb A, and its pretty good.

Herzegovacka Gracanica in Trebinje – special magnificent building from 2000 – has been consecrated to poet Jovan Ducic. Obeying his wish, expressed in his will, the temple of the Mother of God was raised on hill Crkvina. The poet Ducic was also buried in it. This temple is a true copy of the monastery of Gracanica on Kosovo i Metohija and because of that it is also called Hercegovacka Gracanica. This religious complex includes bell, icon gallery, parish's home, amphitheater, fountain, church bookshop, museum and summer garden. The temple can be seen from any point in Trebinje and it is the most beautiful sacral building in the whole Herzegovina. It was the poet's wish to be buried in Trebinje, so, his mortal remains were moved from America to Hercegovacka Gracanica in October of 2000

Europe is generally agreed to be the birthplace of western culture, including such legendary innovations as the democratic nation-state, football and tomato sauce.The word Europe comes from the Greek goddess Europa, who was kidnapped by Zeus and plunked down on the island of Crete. Europa gradually changed from referring to mainland Greece until it extended finally to include Norway and Russia.Don't be confused that Europe is called a continent without looking like an island, the way the other continents do. It's okay. The Ural mountains have steadily been there to divide Europe from Asia for the last 250 million years. Russia technically inhabits "Eurasia".Europe is presently uniting into one political and economic zone with a common currency called the Euro. The European Union originated in 1993 and is now composed of 27 member states. Its headquarters is in Brussels, Belgium.Do not confuse the EU with the Council of Europe, which has 47 member states and dates to 1949. These two bodies share the same flag, national anthem, and mission of integrating Europe. The headquarters of the Council are located in Strasbourg, France, and it is most famous for its European Court of Human Rights. In spite of these two bodies, there is still no single Constitution or set of laws applying to all the countries of Europe. Debate rages over the role of the EU in regards to national sovereignty. As of January 2009, the Lisbon Treaty is the closest thing to a European Constitution, yet it has not been approved by all the EU states. Text by Steve Smith.

Founder leader of Pattali Makkal Katchi (PMK) S. Ramadoss on Tuesday formally launched the Athikadavu – Avanashi Ground Water Recharge Scheme Struggle Committee and urged the State Government to expedite implementation of the Scheme.
He also said that delay to implement the scheme would result in the committee resorting to series of agitations.
Addressing reporters, he said that implementation of the Athikadavu – Avanashi scheme had been the persistent demand of the Kongu region since 1956. If implemented, the scheme would help in diversion of the 2.5 tmcft of surplus water in Bhavani during the rainy season for filling up nearly 220 water bodies in eight taluks of Coimbatore, Tirupur and Erode districts.
The PMK founder leader wanted the State to commence the implementation of the scheme within the next six months as it would cost Rs 1,850 crore.

Terror Arrest At Luton Airport
British national, a 19 year-old from north-west London charged with terrorism offences
The man who died when his car was crushed by a falling tree in Watford this morning has been named.
51 year old Donal Drohan had been driving along Lower High Street when a tree fell on his vehicle, a red Peugeot 207. He sadly died at the scene.
His family have released the following tribute to him: "Donal was a loving husband and father of three. He was the best husband and father anyone could wish for. You couldn't find anyone who had a bad word to say about him."
Donal recently took up golf and was very keen to improve his skills at the local golf club. He loved his chocolate and has been described by the family as a chocoholic.
The family continued: "He was very supportive to everybody who knew him and couldn't say no to helping out with anything. He was an active member of the community who was involved with local groups and had recently helped Team Harrow of The Challenge Network helping to shape the lives of hundreds of young people within the local community."
Mr Drohan worked for Harrow Council.
Cllr Susan Hall, leader of Harrow Council, said: "This is an absolute tragedy and everyone is devastated. Donal was one of our public realm managers and had worked for us for nearly 25 years. He was always cheerful, and passionate about his job keeping our streets clean. His council colleagues are finding this very hard to deal with. Our thoughts are with Donal's family both here and in Ireland."

Ireland ready to tame England's scrum
ESPN Staff
February 6, 2013
Dan Cole and Alex Corbisiero celebrate their penalty try against Ireland © Getty Images
Ireland's forwards coach Gert Smal insists that there will be no repeat of their horror show against the England scrum when the two teams come face-to-face in Dublin on Sunday.
England beat Ireland 30-9 last season with their dominance in the scrum a huge factor in their victory. England had Alex Corbisiero and Dan Cole packing down that day and following Mike Ross' first-half exit due to injury, the pair got the better of Cian Healy and Tom Court. In that 80 minutes against Ireland back on March 17, 2012, England secured a penalty try, thanks to dominance at the scrum, six scrum penalties and three scrums against the head.
But Ireland's scrum showed huge signs of improvement when they met Wales in the opening match of the 2013 tournament and Smal is adamant that the expected front-row of Cian Healy, Rory Best and Ross are ready to tame England's pack.
"It's quite obvious they will target us in that area. There are rumours out there that they want to attack our scrum," Smal told the Telegraph. "It's a great challenge for us. Last year is last year and we've worked on a couple of things. The set piece is a big part of their game and they have expanded under Lancaster the way they want to play the game so it is a good all-round team with a very good set piece.
"I always say with the Irish that when they decide on a certain way of doing things they will do it and it is a very special attitude that when the chips are down - and you saw it in the second-half last Saturday - that they stand up to things and can pull through."

A little more about Encinitas, CA -
Flowers and Surf
Located in southern California, slightly to the north of San Diego, Encinitas is a coastal community known of all things for its vast fields of poinsettias and other ornamental flowers. The vast fields under cultivation are lovely in the fall, and each November the annual Poinsettia Festival takes place in the downtown area of the city.
Encinitas holiday homes also fill up during the Wavecrest Woodie Meet, which takes place each September on the third Saturday of the month at Moonlight State Beach. Free to both the public and all participants; the festival consists of a large rally of wooden bodied vehicles and is reputed to be the largest event of this type in the world. Another popular draw each fall is Oktoberfest, which is timed to parallel similar festivals being held across Germany.
Several important museums and other cultural amenities are located in Encinitas, including the Lux Art Institute and the San Dieguito Heritage Museum. Those who come to the city out of their interest in horticulture will want to visit the San Diego Botanic Garden, which is located not in San Diego but in Encinitas; the name derives from the fact that the city is located in San Diego County.
One of the most popular water sports in Encinitas is surfing, whose beaches have been rated among the top surfing locations on earth. So well known is Encinitas for its surf that the Beach Boys listed the city in their roll call of great beaches in their classic song, 'Surfin' USA.'
I've lived in Encinitas all my life and would never move away because it's truly the best place to live and visit (the awesome stable weather has a lot to do with it).
Lance Hetherington purchased this house in 2000
This location is great as it's a short walk to downtown Encinitas. The ocean views and sunsets from this home are awesome as well.
Ocean Views and close proximity to Downtown Encinitas.
This quaint little house was a welcome get away for us locals while our house was being renovated nearby. The owner was inviting and eager to make our stay enjoyable and succeeded! Highly recommend.
This was a great stay!! The house is perfect, great deck with grill. Clean, and had ample supplies. In walking distance to downtown and the beach. Lance was easy to work with. Will definitely be back !!
Approaching 40 and have tried doing at least three nice vacations per year the last decade or more. The week at Lance's place is probably my all time favorite. Not a surfer prior to coming, but since Lance had various beginner boards the whole family tried out some things every day and had a blast. The location is very convenient, walking to Whole Foods, the nice eateries and the beach. Nice to be in the slope with ocean view, or at least to get some overview of the surroundings. Loved the farmer's market which was Wednesdays I believe, think I went four times that day. Given the location in Southern Cali, and that the house is more than adequate for a family of four, the price/quality ratio is very hard to beat. Lance is a great guy to do business with and he really wants you to have a great time, and will help you out in the perfect no-problem-can't-be-fixed - attitude of the area.
We are a local family and stay down at the beach from time to time so we already knew this is a prime location for everything. Lance has done a great job making this beach cottage really cozy with up to date decor. The kitchen had everything we needed even though there are so many great restaurants within walking distance we had some great meals at the house.
The farmer's market in 2 houses down and Whole Foods is so close. I loved walking to Whole Foods to grab a few things instead of driving to the grocery store.
There are wonderful places to walk and if you have kids the Encinitas Library is just down the street with an ocean view and outdoor tables. There are many parks with playgrounds within walking distance as well if you have little ones.
Lance is continuing to do improvements to this new on VRBO beach cottage and we will definitely stay there again!
Fabulous property. Very charming and clean. Conveniently located.
My daughter and I stayed at this house for a wonderful girls' weekend. The house was beautifully furnished and decorated which made our stay feel very comfortable and enjoyable. This house has a lovely wrap-around deck that we watched the sunset from and there is a beautiful sunroom off the kitchen that I could enjoy my morning coffee from. The fenced in yard made me feel safe with my young daughter and we loved walking down to the local Farmer's market (literally half a block away) for fresh fruit and produce. We could not have asked for a nicer location in Encinitas and the landlord was very accessible and easy to work with. I would highly recommend this rental for a single person, couple, or family. A true gem right in the heart of Encinitas!

Lawn to Garden Convert - Removing Grass
Hi everyone,
I was hoping that someone can give me a little advice on removing grass from a lawn. I need to start planting within the next few weeks, so I don't have time to waste.
My original plan was to kill the grass with Round-Up, till once dead, add compost, till again, and then plant and mulch. I'm worried about this method now because I'm afraid the ground won't get dried out enough in the next few weeks to till it.
The other idea was to use a sod cutter, and I was wondering if any of you have experience with this method? Would I be able to cut the sod out sometime in April, or does the soil have to be dried out to a certain degree also?
As a last resort, I will cover the grass with newspaper and add 6" to 8" of soil, but I'd rather not go this route.
Thanks for ANY advice you can offer!
- Jana
Sod cutter, if available from nearby rental agency is like a tall and heavy tiller. If you can get one and get it there, operate it successfully it does slice the grass right off nicely. If you don't line up each pass perfectly there will be narrow strips of uncut grass but should any of these be left you can get those with a hand tool afterward.
The cut sod can be laid upside down in a low spot somewhere, as fill or otherwise utilized where some soil is needed. If you stack it upside down, with the sides close together there actually isn't a huge problem with it growing. If the edges manage to continue development those could be sprayed or covered with something that blocks the light.
Yard waste totes aren't supposed to have sod put in them and you will have too large an amount anyway. They may also be prohibiting sod at transfer stations here now, but I'm not sure.
I had the exact same problem last Spring. I covered the lawn area with black plastic for three weeks. After that, the lawn was dead, and the soil was in good shape for tilling, since the plastic kept the rain out, and helped warm up the soil. Also, the dead grass foliage and roots add organic matter when you till it in. The grass has not come back.
Yes, Roundup is completely unnecessary, terrible for the Willamette River, and not so good for you. I have gotten rid of grass several ways:
1. mowed it down as low as the machine will go, and then turned it under, putting compost on top of it.
2. Sheet mulching: putting down a layer of cardboard and newspaper and then piling compost, clippings, etc. on top and then turning it under after a few months.
3. removing the grass with sod cutter or shovel. You can post your grass on freecycle.org, or craigslist.org and sometimes folks will haul it away for you. It makes great compost, if you have the patience. Our sod was used by a neighbor to build up a planting bed in his parking strip. It looks great.
I think your last resort is actually the best resort. I really don't think doing all the extra work will really give you any big benefit.
In our last house, my wife converted large areas of grass into flower beds by just covering with 6 layers of newspaper and 6" of pure Cedar Grove compost. Wow! Those were the best beds we've ever had. Weed and grass free and everything grew like gangbusters in there with less watering. Easy as pie to get started. I highly recommend it.
There are many ways to prepare your site for your intended purpose, but it should be made clear that Roundup is not "terrible for the Willamette River". While some pesticides commonly present off site movement risks and problems, Roundup is not typically one of them. Its property of binding tightly to soil particles as well as other factors are well known and distinguish it from easily moved herbicides such as atrazine. This is one reason glyphosate based herbicdes are commonly used for invasive plant removal in sensitive areas such as streamsides.
Thanks everyone for your input.
After stressing out about the grass too much, I decided on the lasagna method. I was then stressing about finding enough newspaper to cover the grass, but then discovered that I could just order newsprint from a paper company for a decent price.
My dilemma now is deciding what to use for the layers, but that shouldn't be too hard. I'll get compost for sure, and maybe peat. Now, if it would just stop raining...
I planted quite a large area over with flower beds.... at first, I dug the sod, turned it upside down, put top soil over the top, and it worked fine. However, next time I just put the top soil directly on top of the grass.... no layers, nothing.... and that worked fine too. Just had to pull out the odd grass bunch, as it poked through, but it was minimal. The following seasons, the bed has been fine and the grass has never returned. Really easy!
Alternating layers of different materials ignores natural models, where you ordinarily have organic material on top of soil with less organic material as you go deeper. The decay organisms are mostly up near the surface, where the air is.
Here is a link that might be useful: Newspaper Mulch
Bboy the article you linked makes 6 points against newspaper. Items 1, 3, 5, and 6 all do not apply when the newspaper is properly covered by 6" of compost.
Item 2 doesn't matter because bark won't give you a weed free bed that you can plant into today.
Item 4 she's just guessing on. 6" of compost is enough to trap all the water that rains & slowly release it down into the soil. I know that from my personal experience & that of my friends.
Part of the difference here is that she was considering it as more of a top layer of mulch, when here we are just using it as a low layer weed barrier.
When we used this method we had an incredible amount of worms show up within a year and really "tilled" the soil. This was in soil where we had hardly ever seen any before. The newspaper disappeared within 6 months to a year and that transition line quickly faded within a couple years.
I have to do exact same job, getting rid of grass that is. I 'm new to this area. is there a place here (west WA)where you can buy compost, manure, topsoil, garden pebbles etc for cheap. In my earlier place there was a public garden supply place that had piles of these and they sold everything for $2 a sack, fill it with what you want...wondering any place like that in this area? or home depot et al is the only way to go?....
Cedar Grove Compost is the best place I know of. They don't use manure & sawdust like some do, it's just plain recycled yard waste. You can have it delivered by the dump truck load or buy it in bags at the home centers for 2 1/2 or 3 bucks a bag.
Here's my view of Cedar Grove Compost. Squak and Cougar Mt. in the background and a part of Cedar Hills Landfill with a liner on it.
Here is a link that might be useful: Cedar Grove Compost.
I am doing a progressive transition of a parking strip from all grass to Paver path to curb with benches on either side and a Neighborhood Herb and Hardy Fuschia Garden. I started with 360 sq ft of Grass.
I am experimenting with pulling up the sod, knocking off the loose soil and letting the sod decompose in some spare garbage cans with tight fitting lids. Perhaps the tight fitting lids are a mistake. Any comments? I have pulled up approximately 40 sq ft so far. I am about 10% through the project and have been planting stuff as I've progressed.
The slow process appeals to me. I get to meet a lot of neighbors and the constantly changing garden makes for a good conversation starter.
I am about to embark on a large project, removing 10,000 sq. feet of grass with a sod cutter. I have several VERY large beds I am putting in place to reduce overall sq. footage of grass.
Am I reading these posts correctly in that I can cut the sod up, turn it upside down to develop "bermed" beds with minimal retun of the grass?
EEK! My method of a trusty pick axe is great for a very small area, but 10,000 SF! EEK. hehe
Here is a link that might be useful: Sinfonian's garden adventure!
Zyrtecdave, yes you are reading the posts correctly. Turning the sod over with the grass side down and the roots exposed will essentially stop the photosynthesis process and the grass will eventually starve. The same theory as if you were to leave a large stone or pot in the middle of your lawn :-) The rooty dirt side is diificult to plant in until the grass dies and decomposes, so I'd suggest using it only as a base for your berm and adding soil over the top. You will also get a more natural contour to your berm if you do this.
When you use the sodcutter, make sure the blade is positioned at a sufficient depth to remove the majority of the roots as well as the topgrowth.
I converted grass area to perennial beds last summer. Started out planning on cutting and turning the sod , adding newspaper and soil then waiting several months. Got impatient and decided to try the lazy way.I just cut the grass VERY short and then dumped 6-8 inches of topsoil on top. Only waited a week or so then planted most of the beds.Turned out great.Got a bit of grass coming up here and there, mostly near the edges where the topsoil wasnt thick enough but it pulled out pretty easy for the most part and sure beat the backbreaking work of digging up sod !
This year the plants are all doing very well. And when I dig down below the 6-8 inches this year the grass has mulched in quite nicely... lots of big fat worms too...lol
So reading zyrtecdaves post,it occurs to me that i could use wide strips of sod turned upside down as walls for a raised bed. Anybody ever do this? What was the result?
Also, since I have an abundance of sod,it occured to me to run it through a cement mixer to break it up. Anybody ever try that? Tell me it works fine before I rent a mixer and find out otherwise!
I'd like to remove 1500 sf of Kentucky Blue Grass sod and replace it with perennial beds and gravel or bark paths. The grass is now infested with grubs. Will turning the sod over and leaving in place starve the grubs by removing the roots they feed on? If grubs aren't killed, will my new beds be in danger of damage by grubs who no longer have grass roots to eat? Maybe I need to create berms for all beds to get them up and away from the grubs. Thanks for any advice.
Look at all the ideas.
Roudup Bad ?? Not really. At reduced rate, 500 square feet of lawn could be killed with Roundup with maybe 2 eyedroppers of Glyphosate dispersed over the whole area, much of the herbicide to deteriorate. And near Portland at least, sod is not accepted at commercial composting locations.
Lasagna method ?? Sometimes one more way to make a thatch layer. Probably the slowest way to get the job done. Can't knock that it works though if you wait for decomposition. If the lawn was not thatchy - may be promising.
My choice ?? Cut the sod, remove it, ammend the soil with compost and rototil or cultivate with a shovel.
Why not stack the sod and compost it to the side. Get it out of your hair ??
Add soil ?? Why ?? We turned hard clay soil over, added an inch of compost and rototilled. Repeated several years with an inch of compost or so per year. And double dug. Ended up with soil so loose, I could push a blunt 1" diameter bamboo pole in 14" deep with my bare hands. And that in spring prior to cultivating yet.
Some folks say double digging may cause compaction. My experience with the poles pushing 14" in, proves the compaction fear to be a myth, since it was brick-like prior to the double digging.

While the active ingredient in Roundup, glyphosate, isn't harmful, some of the other chemicals in it, specifically the surfacant has been found to block the reproduction of amphibians. So if you want there to be frogs and toads in the world, pass over the Roundup.
Thank you for all the informative posts. My back yard is in transition right now from a green tall fescue lawn to bare dirt with paths and plantings. It is so ugly. I was discouraged about the entire project until I read the blog. I have one area of layered newspaper, cardboard, hay, and soil. It's taking a long time to degrade. The larger area of the yard is dead yellow grass now. A leaking hose proved to us that the grass will come right back when given water. I was encouraged to read that I can put a layer of compost or soil over the dead grass. If it weren't 100 degrees, I would plant in a few days. Thank you for your help.
If you want to ensure some pathways amid the new garden space....cardboard is a great layer.....I cover it with whatever aesthetically pleasing mulch I can find for free, and it works great.
Cardboard also is doing a great job at keeping Himalayan blackberries from resprouting from root bits. I'll rototill it all in after a few more rainy seasons.
I've read this entire blog and have a question. Planting season is now. We have started veggies in the house and want to transplant them. My first time attempting a garden. Well, we need to remove the grass. Most of these ideas suggest that I can not plant this season if I want to do it right and have healthy soil. Would turning the sod upside down, adding soil or compost and rototiling be my only option? Or am I not understanding the blog. We were gonna go out today and remove the grass and plant the garden, ofcourse a couple swings of the hoe caused me to check ideas. I am working with a 10x15 foot area. Please help, my kids are so excited about this garden. They planted the starters and have been watering for three weeks waiting for the last frost. What should I do??
Novice Gardener:
You don't have to wait a season to plant. Your kids can plant today if you do the lasagna method. ;O)
We've done the layering over grass many times. Just be vigilant for any grass coming through the mulch. We did it last year for several new beds & early spring we expanded and created more planting space right on top of grass.
We mound it up 6-18" than the grass & once it decomposes underneath your bed won't be so high. Depends on how large of rootballs you have to plant. We moved our large rhodie last year, so needed a big hole for that & layered around it. So far, so good & the bed is so soft in spots you sink if you step into it to cut flowers or take close up photos. I've continued to add mulch to keep a 2" layer. No huge weed problems even though we used lots of hay.
Use what you have for mulch and layers. Try to get a few different sources.
-Compost might be best for your vegetable garden concentrating that in your planting holes & use the mulch materials between them to fill it up.
-I wouldn't use bark for a vegetable garden though
-used coffee grounds from St*rbucks or other shops (call ahead & ask them to save for you to pick up later in the day or the next day if you want a lot of them)
-we use partially composted horse manure/bedding because it's free & nearby as the bulk of our layers for ornamental beds. Usually, full of worms & really gets the bed looking nice quickly.
-sweepings from a feed store -- a mix of their hay, straw & alfalfa...coarse and you'll have to either shake out the hay seeds or cover up that top layer of hay to reduce sprouting. Del's in Auburn has a separate dumpster. Wear a mask because it's dusty, gloves, & bring your own garden fork to pull it out to put into garbage bags or cans.
-use the PEP soil preparation bagged material from Home Depot for about $4 a bag. Mixed with the other mulch materials it will decompose nicely into good soil
Just last week at in-laws we gave up trying to remove the thick grass & sod from one bed and removed the plants instead setting them inside cardboard boxes in shade.
-mowed the grass as short as possible
-covered with overlapping layers of wet cardboard
-replaced plants with root balls right on the cardboard to group them together instead of the checkerboard pattern previously planted
-added lots of coffee grounds (cleaned out the stash at a local coffee company that keeps it available for customers to come scoop) + soil from other beds in those spots lifting plants up just a bit off the cardboard
-filled in the rest with Whidbey's $9 cu yd mulch (shredded wood debris that has dirt mixed in from the piles) + our kitchen compost scraps from the week.
Neighbors enjoyed watching & came out to comment several times. One asked, "Where did you get all the plants?" By removing the high grass, you could actually see the plants. We did add a few from home & some from other beds around the property, but not many.
Enjoy the easy way to garden!

This may be true but glyphosate stays in your soil for years and a correlation has been shown between exposure in the womb and reduced cognitive development. Why go through the effort of growing your own food if you are going to use the same destructive farming methods used to grow the crap you can buy at the grocery store?

That's odd.
We have had frogs at our present home and past two homes, and still used Roundup.
Guess my technique of using it in moderation at slightly diluted rates works after all. "
Just because all the frogs in your area didn't die doesn't mean there weren't less obvious effects such as lowered birth rates (infertility) such as we are seeing in the livestock industry (where animals are fed lots of genetically modified soy/corn with high levels of glyphosate (roundup) residue). If you shot yourself up with heroin and didn't die would you then conclude that heroin must not have any negative effects?! This is very poor logic indeed.
I've read through this thread and found lots very interesting. My "problem" is that the sod in my backyard has that godawful netting as a backing and I am wondering whether that netting would make it almost impossible to use if I want to dig down to plant, e.g., a small tree or bush. My plot is about 100' long and ideally, I'd like to pull up enough to make all 100' a bed of an average of about 4'or more in depth. Here in Lakewood, the soil is glacial till and is full of rocks which makes the idea of berming up very appealing. A friend had suggested renting a sod cutter, but they look pretty forbidding, especially for a woman.
As for RoundUp, it's just not an option.
I have st augustine grass and removed the top six inches. If I now cover the area I cleared with 3 feet of soil to make a raised bed garden will the existing roots die off completely or will they still grow up and invade the plants in time? I would l think no sun it would die but st augustine is more of a weed. Thanks
Using Roundup sparingly to remove invasive growth from one's yard is not at all comparable to the mass overuse of glyphosate in the agricultural industry. Such comparisons are silly.
Glyphosate does not have adverse affects on the symbiotic fungi and bacteria that native plants use for nutrition and protection from pathogens. I know of one prominent native plant nursery that actually endorses its use. My one caveat with Roundup is to use the original formula, and not the newer extended-release formulation.
Few things are not clear to me:
1- What kind of square footqge is involved? with , say 50 sqr-ft, I can do that just by shaving it off by a shovel.
2- How high a raise is involved. Is it going to be a raised bed?
3- six inches or even 8" of compost alone would not do with newspaper underneath. Because, for example, if you want to plant a tomato , you will have to dig a hole deeper than 6" and you will hit the old grass and theymight grow right up.
I liked the idea of covering the area with clear plastic on sonny days and letting that grass sizzle and die. Then I would cover it with cardboard or news paper, top it with topssoil+compost . If you dont disturb it for a while the grass will completely die. I am talking about native grass here, not things like bermuda gass of course.

Hampton Inn hotel delayedPublished 11:09am Friday, July 19, 2013 Updated 11:19am Friday, July 19, 2013
Hotel owners Brian and Vibha Patel still plan to build a Hampton Inn in Fergus Falls, even though the project hasn't gotten off the ground yet.
"It's going to be delayed a couple months," Brian Patel said.
Owners of 14 Hampton Inn hotels across the Midwest, the Patels last fall purchased the lots along Western Avenue on the west side of Fergus Falls near Interstate 94. In October, Brian Patel said he hoped construction would begin in March.
Instead, the Patels were focused on building a $6.5 million Hampton Inn and Suites in Jamestown, N.D. It's a facility which includes 90 rooms ranging from suites to smaller single rooms, according to a story in the Jamestown Sun. That project was just completed.
"We are opening today (Thursday)," Brian Patel said.
They wanted to see how the one in Jamestown worked first before moving on to building in Fergus Falls, which is still the plan, Brian Patel said. However, he added that it will probably be a couple of more months before they have plans ready and obtain a building permit.
Brian Patel said last October that he chose to build a Hampton Inn due to the proximity to Fargo, where he and his wife reside, and the fact that Fergus Falls is a smaller community, which fits with other hotels they own.
The Hampton Inn would be the first new hotel in Fergus Falls since the AmericInn was constructed in 1995.
