|Retreat Title: Low Tide Yoga surf and yoga retreats
|Dates: February 14-21 (ten retreats throughout 2015)
|Name of Teacher: Indrawati Widjanarko
|Location: Medewi, Bali
Description: Low Tide Yoga surf and yoga holiday retreats are held overlooking the surf break at Medewi, a little village out on the quiet west coast of Bali.Medewi is on the west coast of Bali, a scenic three-hour drive from the airport. Our holiday retreats are seven nights, and run from Saturday to Saturday.
On the first and last nights, you will be pampered in a beautiful five-star villa – think luxurious bubble baths; delicious, fresh, healthy food; and the option to have a massage or spa treatment in the privacy of your suite. The villa is in Jimbaran, just a five-minute walk from the beach and a 15-minute drive from the airport.
The surf and yoga holiday itself is held in Medewi, and here you will stay in a lovely, simple hotel that's less than 200 metres from the beach. The beauty about staying here is that once you arrive, everything is just a few minutes' walk away – our yoga pondok, the surf shops, the point, restaurants, massage and beach are all within 200 metres of the hotel. That sense of freedom that comes with simply wandering down to the point, coffee in hand, to check on the swell, or to meander along the beach to get a massage, or to walk through the palms to get to our peaceful yoga pondok, really is hard to beat.
We want you to revel in that freedom, and so the only structure that the days have are two yoga classes, which are scheduled around the tide. The days are yours to do as you please. While in Medewi – you'll be here for five nights – you will enjoy five free hour-long massages, which you can take any time; unlimited surfboard hire; and one half-day activity (snorkelling, jungle trekking or Balinese crafts). Breakfast is included, and for lunch and dinner we recommend you get to know the restaurants around the beach.

Look out, the NHL's highest scoring team is learning to play defense too. The Pittsburgh Penguins have ripped off 13 straight wins, the second longest streak in franchise history. While they're getting the typical production from star center Sidney Crosby, the Penguins are developing into one of the league's top defensive teams. Pittsburgh has allowed just nine goals in its last nine games, the lowest total in the NHL over that stretch. Defensesman Brooks Orpik says the team just got tired of trying to win every game in a shootout and knew it needed to tighten things up if it wanted to make a serious run at the Stanley Cup. The Penguins will try to make it 14 in a row Thursday when they host Winnipeg.

Jen Steele directs the largest telework program in Louisiana state government — and is a teleworker herself.
The new faces of teleworkPioneering a home-based commandTrademark attorneys can call it in Casting a wide telework net
The Work@Home program Steele helped establish last July for Louisiana Department of Health and Hospitals' Medicaid agency is on track to have 134 participants by the end of February. That's out of a universe of 900 employees. Teleworkers handle tasks such as Medicaid eligibility determination. The largest single group of department teleworkers came from a once-centralized call center that has since dispersed into home-based offices.
AGENCY: Medicaid office of Louisiana Department of Health and Hospitals.
TELEWORKER POPULATION: About 15 percent of 900-employee workforce. Telecommuting policy applies to the entire department, but Medicaid is the only agency participating. There are plans to have 160 to 170 teleworkers in place by the end of 2009.
TYPES OF JOBS: Program management, eligibility determination and call center representatives.
TELEWORK GEAR: Wyse thin-client computer and two flat-panel displays; wireless router; Centrex phone lines for call center reps; access to the state network and applications through Citrix Access Gateway.
Teleworkers, Steele said, "have to be well suited both in terms of job duties and work habits…and they have to have a supervisor supportive of the program as well." Steele moved into telework in steps.
She initially commuted 60 miles one way to a full-time job with DHH in Baton Rouge. Years later, after the birth of a child with special medical needs, Steele transitioned to a part-time position in a department office closer to her home in Lafayette. Issues with her child care arrangements, however, led to discussions about home-based work.
In October 2007, Steele began working at home and was soon assigned to create a telework pilot program, which became the Work@Home program. She developed the program's policies, training materials and teleworker-selection process. She pursued this research and development phase with the agency's managers, IT and field staff. She also drew on the experience of the Arizona Medicaid agency's telework program, Virtual Office.
Most Work@Home participants are frontline workers, such as employees who determine Medicaid eligibility.
Steele said such workers were not candidates for telework until recently because the state used to require face-to-face interviews with Medicaid applicants.
By transitioning from paper files to electronic case records, the agency paved the way for eligibility-determination staff to telework.
A 2008 Gulf Coast hurricane, meanwhile, was the impetus for the Customer Service Center's telework push. The storm knocked out power to the Baton Rouge state office building that housed the call center, which operates toll-free lines serving Medicaid applicants and enrollees.
Steele said the center's manager quickly realized the benefits of decentralizing the unit: Many home-based workers could still have power even if the main office doesn't.
Work@Home participants also will include unit supervisors. Steele noted that the first local office manager begins teleworking in January.
The program has had to work around some business process and regulatory considerations. For example, teleworkers must visit a health and hospitals office once a week to sign a payroll sheet. She said the state's Office of the Legislative Auditor requires paper payroll sheets with original signatures.
However, for the most part, Work@Home has encountered only a few hitches. "We were surprised how smoothly it went," Steele said.

This month we're giving away copies of Giulio Mozzi's This Is the Garden, translated from the Italian by Elizabeth Harris and pubbing in January.
Although Mozzi's stories have been excerpted in just about every magazine imaginable, this is the first full collection of his to be published in English. This Is the Garden won the 1993 Premio Mondello and astonished the Italian literary world for its commanding vision and the beauty of its prose. In the eight stories of this collection, we see a steady reworking of the idea of the world as a fallen Eden. Here, in Mozzi's garden, quasi-allegorical characters seek knowledge of something beyond their shaken realities: they have all lost something and react by escaping, retreating from reality into a world, as Mozzi says, that is "fantastic, mystical, absurd."
Or, in the words of Minna Proctor:
Gorgeously rooted in the best modernist tradition of writers like Italo Calvino and Antonio Tabucchi, Giulio Mozzi is among the most fiercely literary authors emerging from Italian literature today. These stories, which in so many different ways are about writing itself, are like rivers cutting through the northern Italian countryside—lush, limpid, exotic. Elizabeth Harris's translation beautifully renders the noble grit of Mozzi's distinctive voice.
If that doesn't sell you on it, there's also this bit of praise from Federico Fellini:
I read Giulio Mozzi's first book with real enthusiasm. What struck me most was his everyday language. Even when his subjects rely on metaphor, his words are plain, and so turn mysterious.

Giveaway ends September 30, 2013.

Pedro Zarraluki's The History of Silence (trans. Nick Caistor and Lorenza García) begins with the narrator and his wife, Irene, setting out to write a book about silence, itself called The History of Silence: "This is the story of how. . .
There are plenty of reasons you can fail to find the rhythm of a book. Sometimes it's a matter of discarding initial assumptions or impressions, sometimes of resetting oneself. Zigmunds Skujiņš's Flesh-Coloured Dominoes was a defining experience in the necessity. . .
In a culture that privileges prose, reviewing poetry is fairly pointless. And I've long since stopped caring about what the world reads and dropped the crusade to get Americans to read more poems. Part of the fault, as I've suggested. . .
I would like to pose the argument that it is rare for one to ever come across a truly passive protagonist in a novel. The protagonist (perhaps) of Three Light-Years, Claudio Viberti, is just that—a shy internist who lives in. . .
The last five days of the eleventh-century Icelandic politician, writer of sagas, and famous murder victim Snorri Sturleleson (the Norwegian spelling, Snorre, is preserved in the book) make up Thorvald Steen's most recently translated historical fiction, The Little Horse. Murdered. . .
We all know Paris, or at least we think we know it. The Eiffel Tower. The Latin Quarter. The Champs-Élysées. The touristy stuff. In Dominique Fabre's novel, Guys Like Me, we're shown a different side of Paris: a gray, decaying. . .
One hundred pages into Birth of a Bridge, the prize-winning novel from French writer Maylis de Kerangal, the narrator describes how starting in November, birds come to nest in the wetlands of the fictional city of Coca, California, for three. . .
At 30, the Mexican writer Valeria Luiselli is already gathering her rosebuds. Faces in the Crowd, her poised debut novel, was published by Coffee House Press, along with her Brodsky-infused essay collection, Sidewalks. The essays stand as a theoretical map. . .
Fantomas Versus the Multinational Vampires: An Attainable Utopia (narrated by Julio Cortázar) is, not disappointingly, as wild a book as its title suggests. It is a half-novella half-graphic novel story about . . . what, exactly? A European tribunal, Latin. . .
Marie NDiaye has created a tiny, psychological masterpiece with her Self-Portrait in Green. In it she explores how our private fears and insecurities can distort what we believe to be real and can cause us to sabotage our intimate relationships.. . .

New Rugby Faucet
First disclaimer...haven't installed this thing yet, so I might be singing a different tune a month from now but I hope not.
Second disclaimer.. I don't have any relationship with Rugby, I'd never heard of them two weeks ago. But one of the nicest things about this forum is the ability to learn of things one has never heard of before, so I wanted to share this tale of my new faucet.
I'd been looking around at faucets, wanted good quality but didn't want to spend what I consider megabucks on one. One day I was in a good local hardware store (Elliotts for those of you in the DFW area) looking at the high end faucets they have and bemoaning the prices and the salesman told me I should check out this Rugby. He said it was all metal, stainless steel, lifetime warranty. We're looking for a pullout and I liked the style of theirs but they also make pull downs. The price wasn't too bad but it was close to $400.
So I decided to check it out more. Went home and googled it. Link to site provided below. Checked the site to see if there were other dealers locally and found a local granite shop that has a very good reputation (Heritage Stonecraft) that sells them as well.
So I gave them a ring and asked about the faucets, can you get spare parts, etc. They said yes, no problem, but you probably won't need them, the faucets are great. Occasionally they've had a few start to drip and in that case, the company sends out an entire new head, since they have the lifetime warranty. Best part, their price, $275!
So I went down one day, gave the faucet another once over and then had them order one for me. A few days later it was ready for pickup so I went to get it.
OMG. See the photo. I've bought jewelry that didn't come in as nice a box as this faucet!
Feels great, very solid and heavy. So here's hoping it performs as well as it looks and feels.
Here is a link that might be useful: Info about Rugby faucets
This person seems to like them: http://byshea.hubpages.com/hub/Best-Stainless-Steel-Kitchen-Faucet
Here is a link that might be useful: Rugby
Well through no fault of the faucet, it took more than a month to get it in but here is the faucet installed.
So far we love it. Since we are using temporary counters, we are still playing with placement. May try it at the back corner for a while too. Sorry for the mess, it's still a construction zone here.

Thank you Chickadee2!
I love the Little Cod, and it will fit right into my firebox. Thank you so much, I would never have thought of that. I am meeting w my contractor tomorrow to make sure he thinks it'll be ok.
Did you choose a color?
Great! I hope it works for you. I just got the plain black iron one with the glass front because I wanted to use a black stove pipe. I was also worried I'd chip the enamel and didn't want to worry about that. It comes with an oil to rub it down, and I can always paint it black if I need to. It's still sitting on the floor waiting to get hooked up. Let me know what your GC thinks. It's really hard to find a small stove that will service a small space without sending out too many BTU's. If you think you want one, order it soon because it takes at least 6 months or longer to get one. Andrew had a long waiting list when I ordered last year.
That is exactly what I am looking at. Plain black iron w glass front. We are twins! I've been in touch w Andrew.
They are so beautiful. I love the look of the halibut, but it'd serve no purpose!
I looked at chickadee's link in the other thread about flooring and immediately thought of how wonderful it would be to be able to heat water for tea or hot chocolate in a kettle on that stove in mtm's studio / guest room /retreat. The blue enamel one is so adorable it almost looks like a pet.

Some will cringe
I was in Lowe's the other day and saw some Sagae and Earth Angels for sale. I thought what the heck, I'll get a couple of Sagae. When I took them to the register they rang up at $1.99 @. I left them there and went back and got another and an Earth Angel, I went back the next day and got some more and then a third day. They were from Berry Family Farms, Sims NC; which I looked up and all I know is they are huge. Maybe someone has some information on them. All the plants there looked fine.
OK, so....
One Earth Angel on a hillside I'm not very proud of.
Two Sagae flanking the steps down to the shed...
...eventually down to the ravine where two Earth Angels were added to a virgin area up top. Kind of messy as of yet.
One EA added up top where this one was struggling desperately.....
....and another at the bottom. They say repetition is good garden design....we'll see.
Three more Sagae placed in another gully, expanding the plantings a bit further.
Three more Sagae adding a little interest to the entrance from the other side. Ringing a knoll where my weeping Japanese Maple and some Japanese Painted fern reside as well as some NOIDS on top.
...and it seems the raging waters of the ravine have split and formed a small island which seemed an ideal place to plant another Sagae.
...and near where we started, with 4 Sagae lined up in front of 3 (so far insignificant) Liberty as an eventual edging and focal point on Mt. Jon.
I count 5 Earth Angels and 13 Sagae. 18 hosta @ $2 ea is a $36 investment which should fill in a good sized chunk of real estate.
I just can't seem to pass up a bargain.
It used to look huge and barren, now it is starting to fill in with the size of the existing plants and the 9 new added to the existing 18 hosta in the Ravine proper is a 50% increase. What seemed to be a huge sparsely filled plot now is starting to look as if it will be borderline lush next Spring.
They are a good size. The leaves are fairly big and the roots were very large. The roots were folded over and tucked into the potting soil. Very few roots were visible when taking them out of the plastic pots, but the soil easily fell away and the roots plopped down twice the depth of the pots. They all looked real healthy. It looked as if they were not in the pots for very long. I flooded the hole easily spread the roots out over a 'volcano' of wet soil, buried the roots and flooded the area. Mulch. Rinse hands. Happy plant.
I have never seen long roots folded over and tucked into a pot like that. If they had grown in the pots they came in they would have been pot bound, for sure.
PS- Its only a 'dry' creek if you have no imagination. Someone suggested to me the other day that I scatter blue rocks to simulate water...AAAAAARRRRRRGH!!!
;~ ) Jon
Cringing here. No problem buying them, as they appear to be a wonderful bargain. I am cringing because you put them in the ground w/o testing them, or did you test them for HVX? I have a GE from Home Depot and it doing very well..in a pot.
In this area I do need to cover some turf. 4-5 hosta that grow to 5-6 feet across can cover a wide band and I think it will look very nice.
Thanks Barb,
I found a lot of problems with Home Depot that I would never buy. These looked very good and I didn't see any I suspected of being diseased in the whole lot they had, including many I just wasn't interested in.
Sweet deals indeed Barb.
DD, this time of the year these deals pop up. I have never seen this supplier at Lowes before. Evidently many nurseries want to unload their stock. Good that they can get rid of what they may have to throw away and good deals for those who don't mind a partial season with the promise of good things in the Spring.
These are all separated and will be for many years. If any show any signs of HVX or any other virus I will simply treat them with glyphosate and look for a replacement in the following Spring. Even if they were planted in proximity to one another I still don't see a problem if you are not digging around in them or pruning without sanitizing your tools. HVX cannot live without live tissue and can only be transmitted by a cut or scrape in both the infected and potentially infected plant. Knowing this and how to identify HVX, I don't see the problem. I am more worried about other viruses that can be transmitted by insects and can travel from hosta to hosta and cause great damage. If I tested negative for HVX at quite an expense, there would be zero guarantee other viruses more dangerous weren't active. I think HVX testing and other tests has value for nurseries, but not for the home gardener. It is impractical for anyone to do a full battery of tests when buying hosta, yes buying from trusted suppliers will eliminate chances of HVX, but not being infected by much worse viruses.
Many don't want to agree, but to me, HVX is easily identified and controlled.

Nice finds Jon!
I don't cringe at Lowes purchases. I think a few bad apples do not spoil the lot in this case as I have some plants from Lowes I bought years ago and they are beautiful and disease free. I agree with your stand on hvx. I've even found it on a striptease. I think it's good to be aware but not overreactive for personal gardening. If I tested every plant for hvx I'd be broker than broke.
No cringing...but definitely greening with envy! :)
I love earth angel. I think I have 6 now. Can't help myself. And the ones you found are nice sizes already.
End of season bargains are nice finds. Last year I ran across a nursery that had all their hosta marked to $1 each. So I took every last one they had. I think I came home with 13 or so. I lined a fence line with them.
Jon, I agree HVX is easily identified and controlled....nematodes are easily identified, yet not so nearly easily controlled. You can have a hosta for years befor it exhibits signs of HVX, as we know, and I have had hostas show signs of nematodes that have looked clean I'm previous years. So what I do is look for HVX in the spring and nems in the fall, with all my hostas, and just accept that is part of my hosta gardening experience. We don't live in a sterile world. My intention is to enjoy what I have and hope for the best....
Good luck with the new acquisitions!
ThistleAndMaize; A buck apiece...great!! I thought I got a bargain. I figure next year we should be seeing some pictures of a nice fence edging????
Thanks coll, I 'Googled' the grower and found no complaints of HVX or anything else, I observed a large display of healthy plants and will be surprised if I have a problem. If there is a problem, I have no one to blame but myself and it is not a big loss, if it turns out well (as I expect) then life is good and everyone will never hear the end of it.
BC, they are already enhancing the landscape. Things should be really popping in the 'Ravine' next Spring.
Thanks everyone.
Jon- I am happy to hear that you feel that you have everything under control regarding HVX. I mess with my hostas every day moving them around, snipping off ugly leaves, and removing scapes...caressing them, poking the soil to see if they need water, etc. I DO NOT carry with me a bucket of bleach to dip my tools or fingers. I have 1 single hosta (my 4th GE) from Home Depot that I do last then clean my tools. Our Lowes has hostas displayed with HVX. So do local nurseries
I only purchase from retailers who know about HVX and are confident that their suppliers take the necessary measures to guarantee that the plants are disease free, so they get the best start possible in my collection.
I have three Sum and Substance and they are great. I am leery of putting any light hosta in the area because it is so shady. Maybe I might divide one up and give it a try in the Fall. Most of the large flat area is set up with large hosta, 4-5 in lines paralleling the 'flow' of the ravine. A Sum and Substance would have to: conform with multiples or be set up as a specimen and I don't have any idea how, right now. .
Dawn antibacterial dish washing soap is just as good as bleach and I prefer it to bleach for obvious reasons. My hosta don't require much clipping, I yank off scapes when they dry up and I guess you have almost certainly almost eliminated any chance of HVX leaving only Impatiens Necrotic Spot Virus, Tobacco Rattle Virus, Arabus Mosaic Virus and other diseases and pests such as blight, nematodes, various root and crown rot problems, Anthracnose and varmints which are all far more easily transmitted and bigger problems than HVX which is by far the easiest disease to control of all that affect hosta.
We should all be aware of HVX and take reasonable measures to avoid introducing it, however knowledge of how it is spread and avoiding panic can avoid any widespread 'epidemic'. HVX has caused a lot of plants to be infected largely because of tissue culturing. It is, however, the least communicable of all hosta diseases.
You must have a weird Lowes! We never get anything that big,or any good named hostas there,at our Lowes. I've said it before,but it deserves repeating. I have never gotten an HVX infected plant that was in a pot when I bought it. Any that I ever had that had HVX came from bagged hostas,where you can't look at them first. Good find,and I probably would have gotten some(though not as many),as I already have two Sagaes,and one Earth Angel. Phil
Phil, it is unusual here as well. I have never seen them either. I have never seen any from Berry Family Farms, Sims NC. They have 4-5 huge operations all over, but that can't be too far from you. I put in Greensboro with a radius of 20 miles and 36 locations popped up on their website (see link below) I found 7 listed within 20 miles of me, but a good 15 miles away for any of them. 5 of the 7 were Lowes which gets us closer to solving the mystery.
They found their way there somehow. Around here it is not unusual for a lot of stock to suddenly appear at big discounts this time of the year. I like to make the rounds bargain hunting.
I did see some hosta that had HVX at Home Depot this year and told them about it and they were pulled...but replaced with worse looking ones the next day. It was a Ct supplier, which is why I will never buy from HD with that supplier.
I don't regret jumping at the opportunity. I could, at worst, lose $36. I think I have gained 18 nice plants.
Here is a link that might be useful: NC Berry Farms 'Where to buy'
Be aware that HVX apparently goes dormant when the plants do, and even positive plants will test negative. My local hosta club did some testing in August one year as part of a lecture, and everything, even plants with very clear symtoms, tested negative. Testing is best done very early in the season when the hostas are putting on new growth.
Regardless of what is put on the spot after a positive HVX hosta is removed, you should never plant another hosta in that location. The virus remains in the soil for an undetermined amount of time, and the recommendation is to never put another hosta in that spot.
Thank you Jo. I rushed to get to respond to bk and rudely forgot you. My apologies.
True, and in Fall when hosta start to go dormant the chance of transmitting HVX drop as pointed out by Steve Mass some time ago.
I disagree that you should never plant any hosta in the same spot. If there is no living tissue there is no HVX virus. It can live over 2 years in any small bit of root, crown, stem that may be left in the ground. I recommend killing the infected plant to the very tips of the roots with glyphosate (RoundUp). Doing this and waiting over the winter insures there is no living tissue. Hastily digging it out and leaving any tissue at all can spread the virus years after the plant is dug out; from the tissue only.
HVX does not live in soil alone or go dormant and re-emerge. It only survives in live hosta tissue, period. This has been proven by university studies sponsored by the Hosta Society. Anyone that tells you any different is provably wrong.
Sweet of you, but no need for apology :-) ...re your Sum and Substance comments...mine gets dappled light and the colour is really fresh (not an apt description, is it? Lol) and stays a bright green/chartreuse. If you were to consider siting it in the shade it would certainly command attention...if you are looking for a more subdued feeling to the area, it might be too bright? Personally I love Sherry's suggestion! (I also love the "serene" look you appear to have right now...which will be more emphasized as the plants fill out. I like the "flow" so far....kind of mimics your "River".)
Jon, that wasn't me. I have not commented on this thread, although I've followed it.
Like Phil, I have bought from Lowe's in the past. They no longer have any decent hosta at the Lowe's in this area. You can buy Frances Williams, undulata or Wide Brim at the Lowe's here.
The Berry family of nurseries was selling to Lowe's here at one time. Then a customer threw a fit about HVX infected plant and they removed all the Berry family hosta. There has not been any in this area since then.
Since I was the misinformed customer who declared a stressed Paul's Glory (labeled Forbidden Fruit) to have HVX, I keep my mouth shut about Lowe's (other than griping about mislabeled plants).
Sorry bk, I sometimes rush to type out an answer and don't pay enough attention.
They do have a lot of mislabeled plants at the Lowe's nearer me, but not at the location where I made the purchases (Dartmouth, MA).
Jo, Maybe I will put SSs on either side of the bench to highlight it, give some focus to the somewhat isolated bench, lighten the spot a little, if they do well it may encourage me to create a meadow around the bench of lighter plants and relieve the growing pressure I have from the building consensus to lighten up a little.
Placing lighter hosta in the area of the ravine itself will draw the eye toward the light. Right now the rocks are light colored (for the most part) and that is where the attention should (must) be. I'm sure you might understand that after hauling tons of boulders and rocks to form the Ravine, I want it to command attention.
Turning into quite a temperamental artist, Jon
Dear Mr. Temperamental Artist,
Your idea of creating more of a "destination" at the bench sounds like a lovely addition - the lighter coloured plants will lift your spirits and the calmer ones will soothe when you need it...and I sure do understand the rationale regarding the Ravine. It definitely is the prominent feature.
The Sky is the limit - or rather, the woods...let that creativity flow! I'm really enjoying being able to follow your new creation...even though it's just looking at pictures. Thank you.
Not to plant again a hosta at the same spot where an HVX infested hosta grew means that no other hosta should be planted into the same soil. I do not keep the infected soil, that one gets bagged and picked up by the garbage people. I then line the hole with landscape fabric, put fresh soil in it anf plant another hosta.there. I had no reinfections. My hostas also can not find the bad soil in the dump. I do the same with hostas having obvious signs of other viruses.
My experience is that you will never know which hosta is infected with HVX until you see it. They might not show any infection for years being at the same location.
I also wouldn't have a problem replanting a hosta in the same spot, with some precautions taken.
The ebola virus has been in the news recently and that is another virus that is easy actually fairly easy to avoid catching- IF you can avoid direct contact with bodily fluids from infected people. Meanwhile, the common flu kills many thousands every year and no one freaks out too much about that, right?. I agree that containing and dealing with HVX, if you have it, is not something I lose a lot of sleep over. I treat every hosta as if it potentially carries the virus, no matter where it was purchased. I don't go cutting off bits of one plant and then on to the next. It's not going to wipe out my garden, even if shows up again (I've had two cases since 2006).
Oh, and my big box stores never, ever, ever have anything other than the most common varieties either.
A collection is a large group of portraits. A landscape is when you use plants to paint a large picture.
If you get all the roots, stems and any other living tissue you are fine. The fabric will not stop infection. I had a hosta planted in a hole in fabric and it grew right through the fabric which was compressed into solid plastic. If you dig out one that is in close proximity to another your method won't work and over time the fabric will restrict root growth.
My advice is: if it's not broke, don't fix it. If it works for you, fine.
I compare HVX in hosta to AIDS in people. There has to be exchange of fluids for infection.
Bk, when the story broke about the American doctors contracting ebola I asked the same thing- how did they get it. I saw one article that said they contracted it in the scrub down area of the hospital, but I would love to know more details about that. Sanjay Gupta on CNN is swearing up and down that no one taking care of them in the Atlanta hospital is at risk.

TV Ratings: 'Ray Donovan' Premiere Tops 'Homeland' With Showtime Record
UPDATED: Buoyed by another record opener for "Dexter," the new drama pulls in 1.35 million during its inaugural airing.
Ray Donovan brought Showtime its biggest premiere to date on Sunday, averaging 1.35 million viewers during its first airing. The series followed another record for Dexter, which returned for its final season to a premiere high of 2.5 million viewers.
Compared to Homeland, Ray Donovan's opener was up 25 percent from the Showtime darling's 2011 premiere (1.08 million). Ray Donovan delivered 2.22 million viewers with an encore, eclipsing Homeland by 61 percent.
PHOTOS: Dexter, Ray Donovan and More TV Antiheroes
As has become something of a tradition for Showtime, the network offered wide sampling of the Ray Donovan premiere in the ramp-up to Sunday's premiere. The network estimates 816,000 subscribers sampled the series On Demand and on Showtime Anytime -- and those numbers do not include additional online sampling for non-subscribers.
Even bigger for Showtime was Dexter. Entering its final season, the network veteran was up 4 percent from last year's premiere during its first summer opener. All previous seasons of Dexter had run in the fall. An encore of the episode brought the series' nightly total up to 3.2 million viewers.
Dexter, like all Showtime series, sees significant time-shifted viewing. The series generally adds 64 percent of its viewers after Sunday's 9 p.m. original, and the last season of Dexter saw gross weekly viewership hit 5.9 million.
Dexter has been a proven launchpad for Showtime, a major factor in the series' summer move and pairing with Ray Donovan. After leading into Homeland for the Emmy winner's first two seasons, last fall even saw Dexter's viewership eclipsed by the younger drama on several occasions.

Reno Saccoccia
Usually its athletes who are arrested or reprimanded for behaving badly, but what about when the coaches and others who help run athletic programs are caught breaking the rules and in trouble with the law? Check out BET.com's list of coaches behaving badly. --Dominique Zonyéé
Steubenville, Ohio, high school football coach Reno Saccoccia was in hot water, when two of his players were found guilty of raping an intoxicated teenage girl. During the March 2013 trial testimony and a text message raised suspicion that Saccoccia was privy to the rape, however Saccoccia was never put on trial. He received a two-year contract extension in April 2013.

Autotecnica Gauge - Digital, 52mm, Tacho
- 52mm
- Digital readout
- Inbuilt warning light
- Includes fitting kit
- Suits 4/6/8 cyclinder electric & coil ignitions
Features & Benefits
Is this product for you?
This digital Autotecnica Tacho Gauge is used to indicate an engine's RPMs (the speed of the engine's rotation) and compliments a speedometer, which measures the kilometres per hour. This relationship is very important because if RPM increases without vehicle speed increasing, it could indicate transmission problems. When driving manual, it assists the driver to shift at optimum RPM and in automatic transmissions when driving uphill or dragging a heavy load.
Where can you use it?
This digital Autotecnica Tacho Gauge is made to suit 4, 6 and 8 cylinder electronic and coil ignitions. Aftermarket gauges like this can either be installed on your vehicle's dashboard or on the panel near the driver's side door. All hardware and fitting instructions are included in this package.
There are rules and regulations that cover the installation of aftermarket components in Australian road vehicles. As these rules differ from state to state, please check with your local transport authority for further information.

Help... mower trouble
okay so this is my first post so go easy on me but we are having some trouble with our craftsman Briggs & Stratton mower. it wasn't new when given to us but ran just fine. in the middle of mowing one day it started running very loud and choppy. belching white smoke and it looks like oil misting out of the exhaust. the spark plug is oily when removed and the oil smells like gas. it runs when started but has no power and will die if pushed into grass. Is it worth trying to fix?
Lookup for videos on youtube for lawn mower carburetor repair. You will need a repair kit from HD/Lowes for 6-7 bucks. It is not difficult. Also change oil and put fresh fuel. Oh, and replaced the spark plug too, seems like it is fouled Check the air filter too. It should take an hour to do all that and about 20 bucks.

Bay Area Bites Guide To 5 Movie Theaters Serving Food and Alcoholic Beverages
Date night just got easier with this list of five local theaters that serve more than just popcorn and Junior Mints.
From Mark Kurlansky, the author of Cod and Salt, comes The Food of a Younger Land (Riverhead Books: 397 pages, $27.95)– "A portrait of American food before the national highway system– before chain restaurants, and before frozen food, when the nation's food was seasonal, regional, and traditional– from the lost WPA files."
That's quite a mouthful.
Reading this book at a time in history when eating local, organic, seasonal food in an urban setting like San Francisco is either a genuine passion, a fashion statement for those wealthy enough to afford it, or somewhere in between, it's a pleasure to find a book that chronicles a time when eating in such a manner was not a matter of choice or politics, but rather one's only option.

Back home, the WG girls had the no. 4 seed going into its sectional quarterfinal against a no. 5 Nottingham side it beat 48-39 on Jan. 17. Here, it would get even more points, largely because the Bulldogs had no answer for Vicki Graveline early or Melissa Fumano late.
Graveline owned the first half. Pushing her side to a 23-12 first-quarter edge, Graveline made everything from lay-ups to three 3-pointers to five free throws. She had all of her 22 points in the first two periods, and needed them to counter Nottingham's efforts as WG led 36-26 at the break.
Fumano got 10 first-half points. And when Graveline cooled off in the second half, it was Fumano, working hard on both side, helping WG out-score Nottingham 14-7 in the third period to all but put the game away as she finished with 21 points overall.
And now the Wildcats get C-NS, whom it lost to 66-50 on Jan. 29 in a game that was close going to the fourth quarter. Of course, the Northstars also beat WG in last year's sectional final at the Carrier Dome, to where the Wildcats want to return and face Corcoran or CBA in the Feb. 28 title game.
