Bar soap to keep pests out of the garden ?
Bought Irish Spring and placed bars on clay pots all around the garden. First the bars would move a bit and now you should see the rat on my patio just eating away at that bar. Thought the smell was supposed to keep the pests out of my garden ? I know some says Coast and some Irish Spring. Have some large very prickly cactus in pots here and there also. What's going to happen when the big animals come around..
When the deer come around, they'll most likely pick up some Irish Spring and start taking a bath!
I responded to your other post on who is stealing your roses, I made a concoction to keep our deer and rabbits away, so far it works for me. I posted the recipe there. :) Hope it helps!
Soap and human hair as pest deterrents are popular myths and nothing more. If you are trying to deter Deer, then you need to either fence of the area you wish to protect, or try one of the repellents like Liquid Fence, which works most of the time for the people who use it. I prefer an actual fence for Deer.
Some of my bars of soap are moved by the morning or bit in half and tossed around but if they are only doing this and leaving my garden alone this is great. Last year the middles were eaten out of my fruit and just the shells were left. So I used the soap here too this year which was moved by some creature overnite and chomped up a bit but this is better than losing my plants,
I live in San Diego also, and have the same problem with mainly two roses (36 of Ingrid Bergman and one Janice Kellogg, and a few others). I have caught both GROUND SQUIRRELS(you know those cute baby ones!) and fruit rats in the act of decapitating fully opened roses, and also defoliating the shrub itself branch by branch, leaf by leaf. Very hungry rabbits will do this also after the spring green stuff dries up and before the next rainy season. Only two things have worked for me, and that is potting up the rose and placing it where there is no bridging stems or foliage-the rodents aforementioned cannot climb(a slippery smooth surface)or jump over approx. 12". I have also cut the bottoms out of +15 gal size nursery pots and inverted them over the plants-it works, not very attractive!! Several of my roses have a small (1" hexagonal chicken wire) cage over them ie Easy Going, Barbra Striesand, and The Mayflower-that works, but buds that stick out still sometimes get decapitated-next year bigger cages. The best thing that worked was a large cat, but this is San Diego, and coyotes really like cats better than rabbits, squirrels,and fruit rats-so, as much as I like the cat, and as well as that worked, I can't bring myself to getting another one just yet. If only I was able to build a tunnel of chicken wire, closed on both ends. I don't like to resort to poisons as our canyon has lots of active hawks and owls(but not enough). With the number of unpicked fruit in the neighborhood, the rats and squirrels are really multiplying. So until the fruit ripens, they will munch on what's available and tasty, and right now that is roses. By the way, raccoons or possums may have eaten your soap, and it just doen't work well for ground squirrels and rats. Jackie

Meta-Regression Methods for Detecting and Estimating Empirical Effects in the Presence of Publication Selection
This study investigates the small-sample performance of meta-regression methods for detecting and estimating genuine empirical effects in research literatures tainted by publication selection. Publication selection exists when editors, reviewers or researchers have a preference for statistically significant results. Meta-regression methods are found to be robust against publication selection. Even if a literature is dominated by large and unknown misspecification biases, precision-effect testing and joint precision-effect and meta-significance testing can provide viable strategies for detecting genuine empirical effects. Publication biases are greatly reduced by combining two biased estimates, the estimated meta-regression coefficient on precision (1/"Se") and the unadjusted-average effect.

Video: Manhattan Memorious / Reiser + Umemoto
Created by Reiser + Umemoto for the Hong Kong & Shenzhen Bi-City Biennale, "Manhattan Memorious" explores what Manhattan could have been. The film visualizes several unrealized projects from Manhattan, including Buckminster Fuller's dome over Midtown, Rem Koolhaas' City of the Captive Globe, RUR's East River Corridor, Paul Rudolph's Eastside Redevelopment Corridor, Morphosis' West Side Yard and others.
Jesse Reiser, Principal of Reiser + Umemoto, explains; "Before a city becomes a thing of steel, concrete and glass it is a theater of visions in conflict. As a city ages, the visions do not die but come up against the physical and ideological resistance of the place and its people. The city we see today is the direct result of radical visions, gradually changing the way the future is realized. This is an account of a Manhattan that could have been – might have been. A phantasmagorical Manhattan where the visionary meets the everyday – the absurd and the sublime. The island as we know it is but a pale reflection of a city designed by visionaries – a city of mad, incongruous utopias."

Filmed in 1921, Manhatta reveals a typical day in Lower Manhattan in the early part of the 20th century. Painter Charles Sheeler and photographer Paul Strand created this silent film to discover the relationship between film and photography, while exploring their love to the City. Just as it is today, the City is amidst endless chaos.

Update: Resistance to NYU 2031 Expansion Heightens
The contenders: NYU and the Greenwich Village community. Let Round 2 commence.
Almost two years after we first brought you news about NYU 2031, NYU's plans for expansion in Brooklyn, Governor's Island, and (most controversially) in Greenwich Village, and the fight has not only continued, but escalated. A debate, hosted by The Municipal Art Society of New York, two nights ago brought about 200 NYU affiliates and community residents together, but only spatially; there was a considerable lack of willingness to compromise from either camp.
NYU's plan, thought up by Toshiko Mori Architect, Michael Van Valkenburgh Associates, and Grimshaw Architects, has ruffled feathers mostly for the fact of its bulk. The 2.5 million square-foot development (1.1 million of which would be underground) is the largest ever proposed for the Village, and has drawn criticism for its potential to diminish light, greenery, and open space in the neighborhood.
From Mad Men to Mies: Why Modernism Holds Sway
It's June 1966. Mies' iconic Seagram Building dominates New York City. Bob Dylan has just released Blonde on Blonde. The Vietnam War is escalating. John Lennon has yet to meet Yoko Ono. Martin Luther King, Jr. has yet to be assassinated. And Don Draper is readjusting to married life – with his 25 year-old secretary.
The excitement over Mad Men, while always eager, was positively explosive last Sunday. The season 5 premiere resulted in the show's highest ratings to date (3.5 million viewers, up 21% from last year). While the show has always received critical acclaim, now, for whatever reason, it has reached a fever-pitch of popularity.
On a purely aesthetic level, it's easy to explain. The show draws in audiences with a meticulous, sumptuous set design that allows a nostalgic journey back in time: when design was innovative & clean, architecture was confident (cocky even), and modernism still held its promise.
But on another level, the show is successful because of its inevitability. The very knowledge of the ephemerality of that confidence, a theme particularly relevant to audiences in the wake of the Recession, is what strikes a chord, what makes the show positively hypnotizing.
Watching Mad Men is like watching a Modernist car crash. A beautiful demise.
More on the Modernist Landscape of Mad Men and why the show has struck a chord with audiences today after the break.
Update: The High Line + Koons
In the middle of March, we attended a community meeting for the third installment of the High Line and shared James Corner and DS + R's visions for the final stretch of the elevated rail line. While the meeting offered an in depth look as to how it would tie together the previously featured conceptual elements, perhaps the already daring project needs a little more spice…perhaps, the High Line needs Jeff Koons. The American artist has been in contact with the founders of the Friends of the High Line (the nonprofit which saved the railway from being demolished) as it is possible the public park could be outfitted with his lastest sculpture, Train, a massive replica of a 1943 Baldwin 2900 steam locomotive. Oh, and did we mention that the train would be danging dramatically in the air, suspended from a crane?

New York City Theatre / David Vecchi & Emanuela Ortolani
The project of the New York City Theatre, designed by David Vecchi & Emanuela Ortolani, stems from the intent to promote the independent play and recover the pioneer spirit that distinguished Broadway at the beginning. Exhibited in the ESA gallery as part of the Selon du Dessin in Paris, The proposal is for a mixed-use building that, in addition to the main function of theater, welcome inside offices and residences.

Sign this Petition and Help Save Paul Rudolph's Orange County Government Center
Many of you may already be aware that Paul Rudolph's iconic Orange County Government Center is at risk of being demolished. Leaky roofs and a damaging flood have convinced Orange Country executive director Eddie Diana to favor this dreadfully mundane neo-colonial office building over Rudolph's Brutalist landmark. Cost is not an issue, as the price tag for the new building exceeds the cost to renovate the historical icon, and many understand the immense cultural value of preserving a legacy; however, this battle is nearing a loss and only solidarity will save it.
The World Monuments Fund (WMF) has launched a petition to oppose the demolition. With the Orange County Legislature deciding the fate of Rudolph's building next month (May 3), it is important you sign the petition now. WMF needs to collect 20,000 signatures. Sign the petition here.

'Interpretations: Promiscuous Encounters' Symposium
The Graduate School of Architecture, Planning, and Preservation (GSAPP) at Columbia University will be holding the Interpretations: Promiscuous Encounters Syposium taking place Friday, March 23rd from 12:00pm – 8:30pm. Promiscuous Encounters, which is free and open to the public, has two main ambitions: first, to examine the fascinating blurriness and productive interplay between the critical, curatorial and conceptual capacities of architecture, including how and where they intersect and overlap and, second, to expand the definitions of what these terms mean in relation to theory and practice by reexamining the sites of criticality and their modes of operation.

'Vertical Ground' Skyscraper Proposal / Code [9]
Code [9], a collaboration between Nassim Es-Haghi, George Kontalonis, Jared Ramsdell, and Rana Zureikat, challenges the traditional campus typology that exists today, by looking into education, society, environment and networks with their 'Vertical Ground' Skyscraper proposal. Their concept proposes a deployable system that can reconfigure into any environment and function as a flexible and interconnected campus. The synthesis is a new definition of a campus, one that is set within today's environment and society. More images and the team's description after the break.

Paul Rudolph's Masterpiece at Risk
Considered one of Paul Rudolph's greatest achievements, the 1970's Orange County Government Center is an icon of the late modernist era. Poor maintenance has lead to deterioration and in September a large flood caused extensive damage to the structure, forcing county officials to close the center. Since then, the county government has been calling for the building to be demolished. Last week, Orange County Executive Ed Diana proposed to replace the cultural icon with a $75 million, 175,000 square-foot mediocre building, offering only 22,000 square-feet of space more than the existing building. With renovation estimates around $67.2 million, or $40.9 million for a "less extensive upgrade", the architectural and preservationist communities are outraged. Continue reading for more.
Update: Community Meeting / Friends of the High Line
Last night, ArchDaily joined the community of Chelsea and Friends of the High Line in the crowded auditorium of PS 11: The William T Harris School eager to see James Corner and Rick Scofidio's latest ideas for the third installment of the High Line. This last segment of the amazing elevated park project is the designers' most crucial intervention as it culminates the strategies introduced in Phases 1 and 2 and must adaptively respond to new contextual relationships between 34th and 30th Streets. Corner and Scofidio's eloquent and coherent presentation very much responded to the community's input from the last public meeting held in December, as the design addressed the need for a child's play area with an idea for a section with rubberized beams, a place for spontaneous and planned performances, and more seating. Scofidio kidded, "There are some things we could do better, and that's exactly why we get to do the third phase."
More about Phase 3 after the break.
'Gathering' Pavilion / Gathering
Gathering was a pavilion designed by Gathering (Ginna Nguyen, So Sugita, Dale Suttle) selected out of more than 600 international entries to be built in a "visionary village" in Union Square Park in September 2010. The distinguished jury included Thom Mayne, Paul Goldberger and Geoff Manaugh, among others. Gathering was then purchased by the Sixth and I Historic Synagogue and exhibited in Washington, D.C. through October 2010. Sukkah City New York was a competition that sought to re-imagine the sukkah, a temporary shelter erected each year to remember the biblical exodus from Egypt.

The Iconic U.N. Headquarters Makeover
Planned for completion in 2014, the iconic United Nations Headquarters (UNHQ) is in the middle of a $1.876 billion refurbishment project, known as the Capital Master Plan, which seeks to update the aging building with a more safe, modern and sustainable work environment. Located on the 18-acre site that was donated by John D. Rockefeller in the 1950s, the Manhattan UNHQ was designed by an international team of eleven architects who worked together in a post-World War II world to create an landmark building through collaboration rather than competition.

Little Known Facts About Something Everyone Dreads or Hates, TAXES
A tax (from the Latin taxo; "I estimate") is a financial charge or other levy imposed upon a person by a state or governing body. According to Black's Law Dictionary, a tax is a "pecuniary burden laid upon individuals or property owners to support the government. In one place I read that it is not a "voluntary donation, but a forced payment".

Arizona Diamondbacks
Diamondbacks' Adam Eaton suffers small setback in recovery from injury
Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Adam Eaton has been out since spring training due to a left elbow strain, but he seemed to be nearing a return after going through rehab and playing some minor league games.
However, he may have hit a bit of a speed bump.
#Dbacks OF Adam Eaton has returned to Phx to see doc after having soreness in elbow.— Steve Gilbert (@SteveGilbertMLB) May 22, 2013
Gilbert, who covers the Diamondbacks for ArizonaDiamondbacks.com, reports Eaton said his elbow does not feel as bad as it did when he first hurt it and is hoping this issue will be over with soon. But, the 24-year-old added, "It just feels like someone punched me in the stomach."
Eaton, who hit .259 with two home runs, five RBI and a pair of stolen bases last season, was projected to be the team's starting center fielder this year. He was having a monster spring, hitting .390 with a home run and 10 RBI before the injury.

Sadly, I feel Twinkies will be around for several decades even though they have stopped production.

Actually, the way I heard it, they had already given concessions three years ago in another bankruptcy claim. The new management was asking for further concessions while the last CEO got a big fat bonus and left the company. The workers weren't willing to sacrifice anymore but I highly doubt they intentionally wanted to close the company.Hostess got caught in a tug-of-war of greed.
Yes they had already given concessions for three years, but in this particular case, management was trying to keep the goose alive.
You can't beat the goose to within an inch of its life then rush it to the vet.
I agree, in the end, the union could have made massive concessions to try and bring the company back from the death plunge. Maybe they could have saved the company and maybe they couldn't have. Realistically, who is going to take the wheel when someone else has pushed the plane to within a few feet of the ground and it is pointed straight down?
18,500 jobs have gone poof! Forever gone.

This is how unions for airlines operate... they give back benefits when times are bad and they fight hard for benefits when times are good. The company stays in business and the employees get paid. Would the BCTGM giving in saved the company? Nobody will know now, but as someone who took a pay cut as opposed to losing my job, I'd definitely have taken the pay cut.

Mercedes has been putting diesels in vehicles since 1926. It has been offering them in the U.S. since 1949. And 2013 is seeing a range of offerings, including in its popular GLK SUV.
The 2016 to 2025 CAFE standards will bringmany significant alterations to automotive powertrains, with even more and greater change to follow.
Process simulation has helped the automaker develop a more efficient production line as part of its world-class manufacturing initiative.
As the industry is in the midst of what can only be described as a "Materials Revolution," the concentration is mainly on advanced high-strength steel and aluminum, with some making consideration of carbon fiber composites, although this is still an outlier.
While it is still early going, at this point in 2015 I have to say that of all of the vehicles that I have had the opportunity to drive, the Mercedes GLA250 4MATIC is quite simply the most enjoyable of all.
One might think that a concept motorcycle named the "BULLDOG" would have had as its design theme something along the lines of "Tough and tenacious." Yet as is often the case with design programs, the development theme was rather, um, non-tough-and-tenacious.

Alan Moore
|Birth date:
|01 August 1914
|Birth place:
|Australia: Victoria, Melbourne
|Second World War, 1939-1945
Following the outbreak of the Second World War, Alan Moore's aspirations to be an official war artist were not realised immediately. He enlisted in the RAAF in 1942 and was assigned the task of drawing diagrams of Allied planes. He also won the Grace Joel Scholarship that year, awarded for painting from the nude. In February 1943 the Australian War Memorial Art Committee considered Moore's official war artist application, and were impressed by recommendations from William Dargie and Harold Herbert. Moore was appointed in November 1943 and attached to the army, with the rank of lieutenant. His commission was to depict the activities of the RAAF working in New Guinea, the Middle East and Europe.
In December 1943 Moore undertook a jungle training course in Queensland, and then on New Year's Day he flew to Milne Bay. His drawings and watercolours at Milne Bay, and later of Goodenough Island, were destroyed by wet weather. While in New Guinea, he changed his practice to suit the tropical environment, working in oils rather than acrylics. In early March 1944 Moore was painting in the Admiralty Islands and witnessed the battle on Los Negros Island. He later voyaged to Port Moresby and completed some works there.
Moore returned to Melbourne in April 1944 to complete several paintings. A few months later he set sail on a Merchant Navy ship bound for Cairo. He visited a number of places in the Mediterranean to depict RAAF activities, including Malta and Bari. For the next couple of months he travelled by truck to the northern Adriatic coast and was based at Fano, painting RAAF bases such as Falconara. He spent Christmas Day in 1944 in northern Italy.
In March 1945 Moore was sent to London. With the end of the war in Europe drawing close, he was to visit the AIF Transit Camp at Eastbourne, Sussex, to sketch the reception of the Australian prisoners of war. Moore suggested instead that he travel to Germany to sketch the prisoner of war camps and this proposal was approved. In April he began recording the release of Australian prisoners of war in places such as Celle, while Stella Bowen was given the assignment in Eastbourne, where she recorded the debriefing and medical examination of Australian prisoners of war.
While accompanying the British troops in their advance across occupied Europe, Moore witnessed the liberation of the Bergen-Belsen camp on 15 April 1945. He recorded his observations in paintings, drawings and photographs. These distressing works convey the wretched atmosphere of the camp, and they describe some of the hellish scenes that confronted the artist. As well as depicting the victims of the camp, he drew the camp officials such as the chief physician Dr Fritz Klein.
Moore then travelled to Belgium to document the RAAF ex-prisoners of war. Later in 1945, he spent time in France at Villers Bretonneux and in England at Eastbourne . At the end of his commission as an official artist Moore presented over 140 works to the Memorial. The Memorial later commissioned Moore for several large paintings, including portraits of Generals MacArthur and Allen.

Disney Moves Marvel's 'Ant-Man' Release Date
The superhero movie now will face off against Warner Bros.' Peter Pan movie.
Disney/Marvel has moved the opening date of Ant-Man to July 17, 2015.
The date previously was the domain of Warner Bros.' untitled Batman-Superman movie, but last week Warners moved the tentpole to May 6, 2016, the same date claimed by Disney for an unnamed Marvel movie.
STORY: Michael Douglas Joins Marvel's 'Ant-Man'
Ant-Man previously was set to open July 31, 2015, and, with the move to two weeks earlier, it now will face off against Warners' big-budget Peter Pan origin movie titled Pan. That movie is being directed by Joe Wright and will star Hugh Jackman. Garrett Hedlund received an offer Wednesday to also star in the movie.
Warners long has made the most of the mid-July berth, releasing such movies as Inception, The Dark Knight and a few of the Harry Potter films then, among others. The dates are seen as prime moviegoing territory and give films a few weeks of space before a traditional slowdown in August.
Paramount released Marvel's Captain America: First Avenger on July 22, 2011, and the film debuted to a strong $65 million.
Edgar Wright is directing Ant-Man, which is in full-on casting mode. The movie will star Paul Rudd as the hero; Michael Douglas as Dr. Hank Pym, inventor of the shrinking technology; and Michael Pena in an undisclosed role.

Spider a CouchDB server, emit events with discovered information
Comprehensive event-driven CouchDB exploration
Probe CouchDB is a Javascript library which digs into every corner of a CouchDB server and fire events when it finds interesting things: users, configs, databases, design documents, etc.
Probe CouchDB is available as an NPM module.
$ npm install probe_couchdb
You can also install it globally (
npm install -g) to get a simple
probe_couchdb command-line tool.
Is it any good?
Probe CouchDB is an event emitter. Give it a URL and tell it to start.
var probe_couchdb = require"probe_couchdb"; var url = "https://admin:firstname.lastname@example.com";var couch = url; couchstart;
Next, handle any events you are interested in.
couchon'db' console.log'Found a database: ' + dburl; dbon'metadata' console.logdbname + ' has ' + datadoc_count + ' docs, using ' + datadisk_size/1024 + 'KB on disk';
Options and Defaults
Probe CouchDB is defaultable. Customize its major behaviors by setting its default options:
// Stock behavior var probe_couchdb = require"probe_couchdb"; // Modified behavior var proxied_probe = probe_couchdbdefaults http_proxy: "http://localhost:8080/" probe_verbose = probe_couchdbdefaults log_level: "debug" skips_users = probe_couchdbdefaults do_users : false skips_designs = probe_couchdbdefaults do_ddocs : false skips_dbs = probe_couchdbdefaults do_dbs : false ; // Combined behavior var my_probe = probe_couchdbdefaults http_proxy: "http://localhost:8080" log_level : "debug" url : "http://admin:secret@localhost:5984" // Inherited behavior var three_dbs = my_probedefaults only_dbs:"foo" "bar" "baz" B_dbs = my_probedefaults only_dbs: /^b/ ;
API Overview
This is the object hierarchy: CouchDB → Database → Design document
- A CouchDB explores the main server, including zero or more
dbevents, containing a Database probe.
- A Database explores a database, including zero or more
ddocevents, containing a design document probe.
- A Design document explores a design document.
Common Events
All events pass one parameter to your callback unless otherwise noted.
- start | The probe is beginning its work; 0 callback arguments
- end | The probe has finished its work; 0 callback arguments
- error | An Error object indicating a problem. Databases re-emit all design document errors, and CouchDBs re-emit all database errors.
Common properties
- url | The url to this resource (either a couch, a database, or a design doc)
- log | A log4js logger. Databases inherit the log from CouchDBs, design documents inherit the log from databases.
Common methods
- request(options, callback) | A request wrapper. Headers for JSON are set, and the response body is JSON-parsed automatically.
- known(event, callback) | Register a callback guaranteed to run, even if the event already happened (see Known section below)
CouchDB Probes
You create these using the API.
- couchdb | The server "Welcome" message (
- session | The session with this server (
/_sessionresponse). Check
.userCtxto see your login and roles.
- config | The server configuration (
/_configresponse). If you are not the admin, this will be
- users | Object with all user documents (from the
_usersdatabase). Keys are the document IDs, values are the documents. Always includes a
nullkey with the anonymous user.
- pingquery | The result of pinging the CouchDB query server, if the plugin is installed. 2 callback arguments: the language, e.g.
"coffeescript"; and ping result, e.g.
{"error":"bad_ping", "reason":"no_match"}.
- db | A Database probe. If you care about that database, subscribe to its events!
These events are used internally and less useful:
- dbs | An array of databases on this server
- end_dbs | Indicates that all databases have been processed
- end_pings | Indicates that pinging all query servers is done
- only_dbs | Either an array, to probe only specific databases, or a
function(db_name)which returns whether to probe that database.
- max_users | Emit an error if the server has more users than this number.
- start() | Start probing the server
- anonymous_user() | Helper function to produce an anonymous userCtx:
{"name":null, "roles":[]}
Database Probes
CouchDB probes pass database probes to your callback on the db event.
- metadata | The database metadata (
/dbresponse), or
nullif you haven't read permission
- security | The security object (
/db/_securityresponse), or
nullif you haven't read permission
- ddoc | A design document probe. If you care about that design document, subscribe to its events!
These events are used internally and less useful:
- ddoc_ids | An array of design document IDs
- end_ddocs | Indicates that all design documents have been processed
- couch | The database's parent CouchDB probe
- name | The database's name
all_docs(options, callback) | Run an
_all_docs query. The options object (if given) is querystring parameters, e.g.
{"include_docs":true, startkey:["name", "S"]}
Design Document Probes
Database probes pass design document probes to your callback on the ddoc event.
- body | The design document, as a Javascript object
- info | The design document metadata info (
- language | A string representing the language this design document uses. This is whatever the
.languagefield in the document is. Usually this is
"javascript", or else
undefinedif it was not specified
- view | 2 callback arguments: the view name (e.g.
"by_name"), and then the view object (e.g.
{"map":"function(doc) { ... }"}
- code_error | Indicates that a Javascript view has a error in its source code (either syntax, or nonstandard function signature); 4 callback arguments:
- The error object
- The name of the view in question, e.g.
- The name of the function in question, e.g.
- The function source code, e.g.
"function(doc) { ... }"
These events are used internally and less useful:
end_views | Indicates that all views have been processed
- db | The design document's parent database probe
- id | The design document's ID, e.g.
No methods.
Correct event order
Often you want to know multiple things about the server. But normal EventEmitter
.on() calls will not work. For example, to determine your own user document:
// XXX: Bad code! What if the session event fires before the users event? couchon'users' couchon'session' var my_id = 'org.couchdb.user:' + sessionuserCtxname; var my_doc = usersmy_id; console.log"My user doc: " + JSONstringifymy_doc;
If the event has not yet fired,
.known() works just like
.on(). But if the event has fired already,
.known() will immediately run your callback with the event data. In other words, using
.known() you don't have to worry about event order.
// Good code. couchknown'users' couchknown'session' var my_id = 'org.couchdb.user:' + sessionuserCtxname; var my_doc = usersmy_id; console.log"My user doc: " + JSONstringifymy_doc;

Small-business owners are expressing their discontent with a new administration they say has shown preference for large corporations when handing out federal stimulus funds. Failure to shore up CIT, unbridled insurance premiums, "onerous" paperwork in the Small Business Administration and a planned play-or-pay health care mandate have left many entrepreneurs unhappy. "We are irate," says NFIB's Amanda Austin about insurance mandates the organization says will put small firms out of business. "Talk about an overreach."

Allied Telesis announced the Calif.-based Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) deployed an Allied Telesis network to upgrade connectivity to VTA Ticket Vending Machines and Clipper smart card readers throughout its 42-mile light-rail transit system.
With a reliable and scalable network backing up Clipper card readers, VTA's 42 million annual riders can pay for transit fares and reload Clipper cards as necessary with a convenient tap-and-go system at VTA's 62 light-rail stations.
Clipper is a reloadable, contactless smart card used for electronic transit fare payment in California's San Francisco Bay Area. The implementation of this new system eases VTA rider commutes by allowing them to transfer between transit systems with the tap of a card. Some 625,000 Clipper cards are in use throughout the Bay Area.
Allied Telesis worked closely with VTA to understand the challenges of its legacy Clipper card system, which consisted of multiple types of network equipment from multiple vendors. The company offered a ruggedized, resilient solution that included gigabit ethernet switches in various configurations. The solution met the rigorous requirements that come with outdoor installations, and Allied Telesis staff served as an extension of the VTA technical team in order to meet critical deadlines and provide training to VTA personnel.
The advanced Allied Telesis network at the heart of the Clipper card system has created a solid foundation that will enable VTA to expand its offerings to include additional card readers, passenger Wi-Fi, emergency phones, and digital real-time information signage and/or advertising — all services focused on enhancing customer satisfaction.
The train wreck, which occurred in the early morning of March 24, 2014, when the operator allegedly fell asleep, injured more than 30 people and caused roughly $9 million in damage. The lead railcar had to be cut up to remove it from the escalator.
The vehicle, which was a designed and built by Brookville Equipment Corp., will be the first streetcar in the U.S. that utilizes wireless traction power.
Opened in 1935, Newark Penn Station is listed on both the State and National Registers of Historic Places. The station was originally designed and still operates as an intermodal facility serving pedestrian, taxi, bus and private vehicle traffic generated by the more than 50,000 transit customers who use the station each day.
Part of the problem is an aging fleet, according to officials. Calgary Transit placed a $200-million deal in 2013 to buy 60 new light rail vehicles; however, those vehicles will not be operational until 2016.
The new trains for Hermann-Hesse railway line will be completely emission-free. In times of increasing energy costs and higher level of pollution, the development of this technology is essential.

The wines of Alsace can be a hard sell. If you tell a collector about a high quality, tiny-production California Cabernet that nobody else knows about, he'll trade his first-born child to get on the mailing list. Yet a similar offering from Alsace typically languishes on retail shelves or in restaurant cellars. The only silver lining? It's probably improving with age.

Is 'April Dawn' hardy enough for woodland garden in 7a?
Purchased 'April Dawn' this week and the flowers are truly breathtaking. I read that it is one of the hardy camellias so I am wondering if it will be ok to plant this in my woodland garden under very tall oak and tulip trees. The area receives just the right amount of light and moisture but I am wondering if the camellia will be ok not planted against a house or a fence. What do you think?
It is hardy for you in 7a. When planting under trees, make sure that the trees' roots are not shallow because shallow roots will compete with the camellia for moisture and food. Local nurseries can help you identify your trees and determine if they are shallow rooted. House and wooden fences offer some protection against cold winds and pests like bamby so consider those if you thin they are worth it. But walls leech lime with makes the soil alkaline, opposite of what camellias like. Plant them away, not close to walls. Maybe, 3 feet away or so?
Camforest lists April dawn as 6B.
According to Ackerman and others, one of the biggest dangers for camellias in the North is early morning winter sun. (The leaf heats up but the temperatures are still really cold and the plant can't supply the leaf enough moisture.)
I do have however an Adeyeka that does get some early morning sun and has bloomed nicely for four years.
They are most sensitive to sudden cold when they have come out of dormancy and have new growth. Different varieties do this at different times.
I planted April Dawn 2 years ago along with 3 other cold hardy camellias. My April Dawn did great this past winter. It is in a sheltered location, and does not get morning sun, but it was also left fully uncovered during the first big 20" snows and subsequent cold snap (many single digit nights). It had no die back and looks great now. I highly recommend this camellia for cold areas. Two others of my other camellias (Springs Promise and Snow Flurry) are also looking very good and had no die back. My Autumn Spirit did not fare so well. I will probably loose 1/3 to 2/3 of this young plant - but I am expecting it to come back.
I have April Dawn here in Providence (6B) and it's fine. No protection, but it's near a south facing wall and does get a little shade in the afternoon from a nearby holly tree, so the shade is year-round. I also have April Rose and April Remembered. For a fall bloomer, I have Snow Flurry. It's been around for at least 12 years and has never suffered any damage, even in the terrible January of 2004, when we had temps below zero (-6º one night!) or at or just a few degrees above zero for nearly three weeks. In addition, the daytime temps never went above freezing, and mostly were struggling to get to 20º, so that was a good test!
>Purchased 'April Dawn' this week and the flowers are truly breathtaking. I read that it is one of the hardy camellias so I am wondering if it will be ok to plant this in my woodland garden under very tall oak and tulip trees. The area receives just the right amount of light and moisture but I am wondering if the camellia will be ok not planted against a house or a fence.
Avoid putting it within the drip line of the tulip tree; its sticky drippings in the spring are an invitation for diseases to get started. The camellia doesn't need anything like a house or fence, though if a house or fence are somewhere not too far away, the resulting windbreak in the winter would be nice.
Most of ours are far from the house and they do fine that way. One thing you can do about the windbreak situation is to plant the camellia in a small grouping, so that all the plants within the grouping are somewhat more sheltered from the wind than they would be if planted totally alone as a single plant. All of ours that are far from the house do have some protection from other nearby large plants (rhododendrons, azaleas, and other camellias).
Best wishes,

Comedy Update
Over the past month, things have really started to pick up steam! I just did a comedy contest at Joker's Wild in New Haven last night, and now my new comedy song "The Chosen People will air, possibly as soon as this weekend on Vinnie Penn Project on New Haven's 960 WELI!
I guess I've found my niche in musical comedy although I still do some stand-up as well. I'm hoping to still do occasional comics when I have time but based on results it's hard to justify. But I still have some ideas that don't translate well to anything but comics so when I'm bored you'll get a comic.
If and when I figure out how though, this site will also be used to display video, news and other media that involves stand-up. But I'll see if I can make it it's own page on the site with my limited website design know-how. I have this website hosting for at least 2 more years so I gotta make the most of it, ya know?

ESPN Adds Landon Donovan to World Cup Analyst Roster
Landon Donovan will be part of a World Cup team after all.
Despite not being selected for the U.S. team by coach Jurgen Klinsmann, the three-time World Cup star will be part of ESPN's coverage and contribute analysis from the ESPN-ABC studios in Los Angeles.
Donovan -- the all-time U.S. leader in both goals and assists -- will make his debut Wednesday during ESPN's two-hour FIFA World Cup Preview, according to a statement from the network.
PHOTOS: Goal! Hollywood's Best Soccer Movies
His focus will be on the U.S. team's three opening round matches: June 16 vs. Ghana, June 22 vs. Portugal, and June 26 vs. Germany; and he will then contribute to pre-, halftime and post-match coverage editions of SportsCenter, World Cup Tonight and other shows.
"Adding Landon to our ESPN roster just before the World Cup is a coup because he knows the United States team better than anyone, having played such a huge role in its success, especially at this event," said Jed Drake, ESPN senior vp and executive producer. "Landon is also one of this country's biggest sports stars, and we believe that he will help attract even more fans to our monthlong coverage."
Q&A: ESPN's Bob Ley Talks World Cup Fever, Landon Donovan's Snub
L.A. Galaxy star player Donovan went on to say: "I am excited to be joining ESPN's coverage of the 2014 World Cup from Los Angeles, and I look forward to working with the talented ESPN broadcasters to provide unique insights for our amazing U.S. Soccer fans."
Donovan, who was part of the final cut in May when the 23-man U.S. roster was set for Brazil, is the all-time leader in goals and assists with the U.S. National Team, scoring 57 goals and adding 58 assists in his 157 games. He has played in 12 World Cup games and scored five career World Cup goals, both U.S. records. A seven-time Honda Player of the Year and four-time U.S. Soccer Male Athlete of the Year, Donovan won both awards in 2009 and 2010.
He was also the breakout star of the 2010 World Cup, scoring three times in the four games that the U.S. played, including a historic goal in stoppage time to give the team a 1-0 win over Algeria and the top seed in Group C.

New release simplifies deployment of multi-tier applications and adds support for latest versions of Windows, Apple, Linux and virtual applications
Maidenhead, U.K. - August 19, 2014 - Flexera Software, the leading provider of next-generation software licensing, compliance and installation solutions for application producers and enterprises, announced today the launch of InstallAnywhere 2014. The new release simplifies deployment of multi-tier applications and adds support for the latest versions of Windows, Apple, Linux and virtual applications.
Simplifying Deployment of Web/Server Applications
Agile development is increasing the frequency of software releases and, as a result, the time and effort around developing software installers. InstallAnywhere 2014 is the only multi-platform installation solution capable of automatically detecting and removing previous versions of an application, and correctly upgrading a previous version on an existing customer's PC. This new standard installation framework simplifies development and installation of upgrades for application producers.
In addition, InstallAnywhere 2014 is the first multi-platform installation solution to provide out-of-the-box support for the latest versions of MySQL and its supporting user dialogs. This allows developers to install databases and supporting panels to MySQL locally and remotely in a simplified environment.
Moreover, Java web application archive (WAR) files are a common way of packaging a web application into a Java style ZIP file. However these files do not include a customer-facing interface for deployment, and they are limited in their ability to bundle supporting prerequisites, runtimes, and machine configuration tasks. InstallAnywhere 2014 now provides new built-in panels that give end users more flexibility by supporting easier deployment of WAR files to local or remote Apache Tomcat 6, 7, and 8 servers.
Support for the Latest Versions of Windows, Apple, Linux, and Virtual Appliances
InstallAnywhere 2014 provides new platform support for:
- Apple: Apple OS X Mountain Lion (10.8),Apple OS X Mavericks (10.9), plus Java 8 support for OS X;
- Microsoft Windows: Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2012 R2;
- IBM: IBM SUSE Linux 11.3, Ubuntu 12.04, Solaris 11 Sparc, HP-UX 11i, AIX 7.1, IBM i5/OS, z/OS;
- Red Hat: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and Fedora 16.
"Virtualisation and the cloud continue to deliver tremendous benefits for both application producers and their customers," said Maureen Polte, Vice President of Product Management at Flexera Software. "InstallAnywhere 2014 accommodates both existing and emerging environments, enabling producers to support the physical configurations that customers still need and want, while delivering applications as cloud-based offerings."
