Ok, there are three Asian restaurants on Milpas Street (two of which are Chinese, one is Thai.) Where's the fourth?
And where's the middle eastern place?
Posted on September 26 at 3:40 p.m.
Thanks for the falafel tip.
Jack's Bistro is in the shopping mall next to Trader Joe's way at the end of Milpas near the 101 entrance. It's not in the funky, central part of Milpas where most of the restaurants are located.
I only know of two Chinese restaurants on Milpas. What are the other two?
And what Middle Eastern restaurnant is on Milpas? Sam's To Go is not Middle Eastern just because the owner may be. . . .
Posted on September 26 at 12:54 p.m.
The winners seem reasonable to me. Currently the Shop Cafe, which I've only been to a couple times, is the only coffee shop on Milpas.
The folks who live near Milpas are white and hispanic, so there's certainly no reason every restaurant on Milpas should be a Mexican one. Certainly the most popular spots on the strip, Super Rica and Los Agauves, both attract largely whites (lots of tourists) anyways.
Personally, I wish there were more quality Asian restuarants (Korean, Malaysian, Thai, Vietnamese, etc.) in Santa Barbara. A really good/healthy falafel shop would be a great addition too.
Posted on September 25 at 4:15 p.m.
You still can't name a single, great affordable restaurant in Santa Barbara though you claim that "any number of places use fresh, real ingredients."
Come on, I can't wait to hear this long list of yours. I live in Santa Barbara too, and I can't think of any that aren't mucho dinero, unless you consider a pineapple from Whole Foods dinner.
Posted on September 25 at 10:51 a.m.
They have five very successful restaurants, and still have lines on weekends. They're doing something right!
What are the "any number of places that use fresh, real ingredients?"
Low priced restaurants (ie diners) only work because they use commercial bulk purchased ingredients. For "farm to table" quality, you either have to eat at home, or splurge on occasion at the Stone House.
Stop the hating!

It's too late to save the funk zone from gentrification.
It's already become a mini Montecito.
He should use his brother's millions to building a big shared art workshop space on the first floor and galleries above.
Building hotels and condos may be profitable, but the time and costs in Santa Barbara, would be better allocated if this guy followed his heart instead of his wallet.
Think art. Think galleries. Forget big profit. You're already rich.
Posted on September 22 at 11:34 a.m.
Compared in Tokyo, Santa Barbara is dirt cheap. And if you can't speak Japanese, must Japanese landlords will say "sayonara" faster than you can eat a Rainbow Roll at Arigato.
Posted on September 22 at 11:10 a.m.
It's more than a matter of opinion, NoletaLady. We're basing our opinions on facts, experience, and credible economic theory. Name calling is uncalled for. While we obviously don't agree with your baseless opinions, we don't attack you personally or malign your character over and over ad nauseum as you do.
Posted on September 22 at 11:01 a.m.
I agree with Sam about rents finally starting to catch sales prices. At some point, it has to happen. It's basic economics.
During the last real estate bubble, Santa Barbara prices were on par with other very desirable locals like SF and NYC. Recently, prices (and rents) in SF and NYC have spiked, while Santa Barbara's have only increased modestly in comparison.
SB housing prices and rents will continue to increase until parity is reached with other highly in demand locals -- think Laguna Beach, Malibu, Beverly Hills, etc. There's no reason SB prices and rents would stay low while other comparable "resort towns" see massive price increases.
And it's not because of greedy landlords or rich foreign students (as much as the haters like to believe) that prices are going up. Macro-economic real estate trends combined with Santa Barbara's unique desirability (despite all the vagrants) is a recipe for rising housing prices and rents wheather we build "affordable housing" or not.
Posted on September 22 at 7:15 a.m.
Botony summed it up perfectly and it's worth repeating:
"The people that blame landlords when rents rise are likely the same ones that blame speculators or oil companies when gas prices rise. The concepts of supply and demand simply elude them."
Noletalady can call us trolls all she wants, but she can't refute the truth. If she could, she wouldn't have to resort to name calling.

Garden Journal: Electronic vs Paper
Thought this might be useful in terms of landscaping management and design...
Summary: In reviewing options for garden journals, there are three main choices: paper, online, or software. A fairly in-depth analysis reveals that a journal created by the gardener is almost always superior to the garden journal software currently available.
Paper-based garden journals were the way people originally tracked information about their garden or landscape, and it is still very popular. There are a number of different methods from Rolodex cards to professional paper-based systems. Generally, paper-based systems are inexpensive, mobile, and easy accessible. In fact, paper-based systems are the most cost-effective way to start a journal, since the other two methods require hardware. High quality, sturdy components generally performed better than cheaper alternatives and lasted longer.
Three-ring binders afford gardeners the ability to remove or add notes, sections, sketches, or other paper-based materials at will an advantage over hardbound diary systems, journal-style calendar books, or compositions books. Components, such as a manila folder for receipts, pocket folders for seed packs, or index cards for quick notes, can be added to the system fairly easily. Archiving is easy and stable, compared to the other two options, and some people enjoy the thought that their garden journal could be a legacy to other family members sometime in the future.
The disadvantages of paper-based systems include time consuming searching, running out of space within the system, loss of notes or other papers, and lack of flexibility in terms of moving individual pieces of data (e.g. one plant entry) around within the system. Some gardeners report being overwhelmed by all the different pieces of paper that needs to be managed. Inserting photos into some forms of paper-based systems can also be challenging. Finally, sharing the information in a paper-based system, especially remotely, is neither quick nor easy.
An example of a professionally done paper-based garden journal system: A GardenerÂs Journal
The older of the two electronic means of tracking gardening information, garden journal software is still popular. Like paper-based systems, there are a number of different options from spreadsheets to dedicated gardening management software. Software has the benefit of rapid data aggregation, increased flexibility, better reporting functions, and superior search abilities. It also allows the creator to easily share information rapidly and remotely.
For simplicity sake, the main focus of this section will be dedicated software packages for garden management. User created electronic garden journals (using spreadsheets, Word documents, etc.) will be addressed at that end.
As with the paper-based system, there are a number of drawbacks to the software model. First, the software is tied to the developer  if the developer stops supporting the software, goes out of business, or stops upgrading the software, there is no recourse. All the years of data you have put into the system may be jeopardized, especially if there is no way to export the data. In addition, the software is molded to the developerÂs way of thinking and gardening  too bad if it doesnÂt match yours.
Second, it is unlikely that any software package will have all the components that you want and in most cases you will be unable to change this. Software garden journals also require hardware, so they are more limited and less mobile in this way then paper-based journals. A brief scan of the Apple iStore suggests that cell phone apps for garden journals are not yet ready for prime time, some being little more than templates.
Third, data entry can be time consuming depending on the interface and the userÂs typing skills.
Finally, archiving and data corruption are significantly larger and more difficult issues with a software solution.
Some software garden journals currently available:
1. Garden Tracker
Offers worksheets, database, reports, to-do lists, ability to organize photos and videos, and ability to create markers/labels/seed packets. May be useful for someone with only basic needs. The program offers no way to pull out or compare weather data, for example, and comes with only limited plant information. There is also no built in backup function. Developer has been supporting product for 8 years and is responsive to email inquiries. Standard Edition $59.95; software alone $29.99
2. Premier Gardens by Pleasant Lake Software
Billed as software for home garden, professional landscape, and master gardener, Premier Gardens has fair number of components: plant catalog provided by a bulb company, ways to track multiple gardens, plant inventory, planning list, grids, weather, and various reports. The developer offers a 30 days free trial and is responsive to email inquiries.
The program has some quirks. For example, the Plant Catalog has an area to put in the botanical name, but no column that shows it in the grid below, so you are limited to searches by common name. Plants cannot be put into the Garden Plants sections directly  they have to be imported ("planted") from the Plant Catalog.
The Garden Plants section offers common name, cultivar, primary and secondary color, pattern, flower date, information on purchasing.etc. There are no input areas for light, moisture, dimensions, soil type, pH, botanical name, etc. unless you use the comments area, which does not appear to be searchable. The program does have a Planning section for tracking plants you may want to acquire and a Transplant tracking function.
The website speaks about a maintenance section, which turns out to be an add-on you need to order separately and is still in development. Thus, no real ability to track monthly gardening tasks, "to-do" list tasks, etc. as yet in the main program. There is no real diary function with this program and you cannot paste data into the database using the right click of the mouse  you need to use keyboard commands. The interface is easy to use, however, and the program comes with an extensive userÂs manual. The program does have the ability to allow unlimited pictures in the Garden Plants section and there is a limited amount of customization available via the Settings section.
Price: $39.95
3. Gardens and Plants 6.02
Seems more for nurseries  allows you to build a database of plants.
4. Garden Organizer Deluxe 3.3
Reviewed by CNET Â three out of five stars. Reviewers disliked program interface, the navigation system inspired dread, and nothing about the program was intuitive.
5. HMK Consultants Garden Management System
Billed as a garden management package, HMK claims to, "store horticultural information, plant detail and plant images for the plants in your garden." One reviewer found that the garden description information for each plant was awkward and she had trouble returning to the main menu without having to completely reopen the program each time, which lead her to return the product. Another reviewer felt it was targeted to the casual gardener because of the lack of detail you can enter into the program. Two other reviewers enjoyed the program.
$30 Canadian
6. My Garden Journal by Upper Shores Software
Excellent program: icon driven navigation, weather database, diary, plant inventory, seed inventory, maintenance planning, garden reminders, garden tips, calculator, frost table, built in backup system, and photo viewer. Drawback? The developer stopped selling/supporting the software, which makes it untenable to own it any longer.
A new form of tracking gardening information is to store it online, either on a dedicated site or via a blog. Online gardening journals enjoy many of the same benefits as the software option: rapid data aggregation, increased flexibility, ease of sharing with others, and superior search abilities. Archiving is still an issue, but there is less of a problem with data corruption.
The biggest drawback with the online gardening journals is that your information is on someone elseÂs server. If they decided to discontinue the site, your information could be lost as well. Access can be a problem if you are not at a computer or if your online connection goes down. Also, sharing is different in this environment  instead of sending the information itself, users typically send the URL of their blog or online data. If at a future time you do not want people to have access to this data, or if you only want them to access to some of it, things become more difficult.
Example of a dedicated online gardening journal: Green Thumb Journal
Personal Solution:
The take home lesson seems to be that a garden journal created by the gardener is superior to the limited software packages currently available. Whether paper-based, or created either with applications or online, the DIY solution is cheaper and provides the possibility of the best-tailored solution for the gardener. This is also evident in other Gardenweb threads discussing this topic:
Because of this, I decided to build my own garden journal using components of Office 2007. This could probably be done equally well with the free Open Office suite. First, I created an Excel spreadsheet with the following tabs: Weather, Plants, Diary, Maintenance, Activities (for planning), Sections (of my landscape), and Seed Inventory. The Plants section, for example, tracks botanical name, cultivar, common name, date planted, plant type, area planted, light requirements, moisture requirements, pH, soil type, flower color, foliage color, bloom time, climate, dimensions, and notes. There is also a status area that lets me track plants that have died or that I removed and why.
Second, extensive notes and photos for each plant is held in a separate Word document that I have been creating for years.
Finally, all components are held together in One Note. I created a new notebook called Garden Journal and a section called Dashboard that has all the components (Excel spreadsheets, Word docs, website links, etc.) hyperlinked in one place for easy access. I also have a section called Articles for relevant gardening information. It would be easy to have a section called Blogs to archive all blog entries in order to access them offline when necessary. The permutations are endless, depending on your needs: a Dairy section, a Photo section, a Plans or Design section etc. For mobility and archiving, it is a simple matter to make a hard copy as needed.
It never would have occurred to me to purchase software to track my garden. Like you, I find an Excel spreadsheet to be a versatile tool for tracking the information that interests me, and a simple Word document, or file of documents, can contain any quirky info not suitable for a spreadsheet. In addition to the computer-drawn plan, I have a large-scale printout of my new garden plan with a 10' by 10' grid for a visual record of the location of specimens. The grid coordinates go into the spreadsheet, and my husband swears he's going to give me GPS coordinates for the plants. : )
I once had a paper garden journal, but my entries were very sporadic so the result is incomplete, and the journal lacked any organization beyond calendar dates, not very useful for the type of data you are keeping. These days I type far better than I write, such has been my evolution...
I had a fantasy that, with a software package, everything would be integrated in one place. Like the landscape design software packages, however, this is far from the case, which is surprising. If we can create a reasonable garden journal with Excel and Word, how hard can it really be?

Cullen adds to racquetball resumé
Kurtis CULLEN of Brandon, the national junior singles and doubles champion in the boys' 18-and under division, has added a pair of provincial titles to his racquetball resumé.
Cullen, who recently turned 19, won the 2011 Manitoba Racquetball Association titles in the men's open singles and doubles last Sunday in Brandon.
Cullen defeated Canadian women's singles champion Jennifer Saunders of Winnipeg in the men's open final 15-8, 15-10.
"We found out it was the first Manitoba provincial final to feature two current Canadian champions," said Saunders, who plays in the men's open division since there are no other women's open players in Manitoba.
Cullen won the doubles title with partner Dennis Oteyza of Winnipeg, who defeated Saunders and her partner, Pat Madill of Brandon, 13-15, 15-13, 11-4.
Cullen was also honoured as the at junior nationals with the prestigious Sherman Greenfeld Award for excellence on and off the court. The award was previously won by two other Brandon athletes -- Sam Morrissette in 2009 and Scott Campbell in 2005.

The St. John's-Ravenscourt School's varsity co-ed team won the 2011 Canadian High School Ultimate Championship title last Sunday at Mississauga, placing first among 15 schools.
Ultimate is a non-contact sport played with a flying disc in which teams try to score points by passing the disc into an end zone.
Kate Scarth, a Grade 12 captain of SJR, was named her team's championship MVP while Elliot Wong was the SJR spirit winner for the final.
Scarth was on Canada's national U-20 Ultimate team last summer which played in the Ultimate World Championships while both she and Devon Willitts, also a Grade 12 captain, are Manitoba provincial team members.
Coach Dean Wright's SJR team, seeded second in the tournament, recorded a 15-7 win in the championship game over top-seeded Barrie North.

Tia Coulter of Brandon's Crocus Plains Plainsmen varsity girls basketball team has been selected as the Home Run Sports urban high school athlete of the week.
During the basketball season, the 6-foot post led her team to a Final Four appearance where she was a provincial all-star. The Grade 12 student has been on the honour roll for four straight years in high school and has a current average of 91 per cent.
Rae Nakonechny of the Nellie McClung Stingers badminton team in Manitou is this week's Tri-Star rural high school athlete of the week.
Nakonechny and her girls' doubles partner Haley Nakonechny, went undefeated in zone play and won gold at the provincial badminton championships in Carman. The Grade 12 student has a 92 per cent average.

Chaffetz says he's not convinced Boston bombers acted alone
Ben Brewer, Deseret News
SALT LAKE CITY — Rep. Jason Chaffetz said Friday he's not convinced the "two punks" suspected in the Boston Marathon bombings acted alone and suggested they may be part of a larger terror network.
"I don't think it's necessarily just two kids who watched some YouTube videos and went awry and decided to do this mayhem," the Utah Republican said on C-SPAN. "No, I worry that they were radicalized in a way that others may have also been radicalized."
Chaffetz, a member of the Homeland Security Committee that has already received classified briefings on the case, said he's not alone in questioning whether suspected bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev and his brother, Tamerlan, had help.
"There are also lots of us that aren't convinced this is just an isolated case. One of the things that concerns me is, right at the very beginning, the officials quickly said, 'Oh this is an isolated case,'" Chaffetz said.
The congressman later told the Deseret News, "It would be irresponsible to assume these are the only attacks" and that he believes authorities are pursuing that angle.
"We should be worried this is a bigger, broader plot," Chaffetz said. "This is a highly unusual, yet sophisticated attack. It begs the question of who else may be involved."
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev reportedly told authorities earlier this week after being captured that he and his brother, killed in a confrontation with police, were operating alone and had received no training or support from outside terrorists groups.
The pair are accused of planting two homemade bombs along that killed three people and wounded more than 260 at the finish line of the April 15 race. Officials have said the brothers also intended to attack New York City's Times Square.
During the half-hour interview on the cable channel's "Washington Journal" program that aired early Friday morning, Chaffetz said he expects Congress to take a closer look at how the investigation into the bombings has been handled.
Congressional hearings could start as soon as next month, Chaffetz said. Still, he said, he's willing to give the authorities involved time "to make sure there aren't other people out there in this same situation" who need to be stopped.
"We're going to need months to let this play out," Chaffetz said. "Let the law enforcement folks do what they need to do now without the pressure of having to prepare some sort of testimony for the Untied States Congress."
He said the concerns raised about the investigation, including whether information was properly shared among agencies in the Obama administration, is "not a partisan thing. We're all rooting for them, cheering them on."
Questions that need to be answered include how the ethnic Chechen brothers from Russia who came to the United States about a decade ago were able to construct the bombs and plan the attack, Chaffetz said.
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev reportedly told authorities that his older brother was upset by the U.S. involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan and that anger was the motivation for the bombings.

"The harder you work, the luckier you get."
Gary Player
Below is the poem entitled The Sculptor which was written by poet
Vijayan. Please feel free to comment on this poem. However, please remember, PoetrySoup is a place of encouragement and growth.
Read Poems by
Bindu Vijayan
His chiselled arms coaxed the reticent rock
To hew out life as he soothed the stone
His gentle blows rang to ancient notes
Sounds of heaven threaded to creation's dance
His thoughts caressed to sculpt her alive
Urging her softly to a hypnotic consent
Toiling hard in the enthralled union
The sculptor carved his poem in granite
Her long-eyed gaze came alive to arrest his tawny eyes
A helpless captive to her moulded perfection
Brooding darkly at her beauty and allure
He lost his soul to her in lone nights
Remains of time when insanity reigns
Reality playing ruse at a dark table
Haunted desires stalking a Creator
Driven to submission by his rage to create...

AYP Engine Drive Pulley
I am in the process of fixing a mower for a neighbor. He has a Troy-Built/Craftsman 21" Self Propelled mower. It is missing the engine drive pulley that drives the self-propel. Based upon the exploded diagrams; I purchased the drive pulley only to find out is is for a 1" output shaft where the output shaft on the mower i'm fixing is 7/8".
What i'm trying to find is the Craftsman/AYP part number for an 7/8" engine drive pulley.
The Mower/Engine Model# are below:
Mower - 917.376536
Engine - 78SXS.1901VH

Why would this be a bad idea?
Does the yeast cake require cleaning before doing this even if I brew the same type of beer?
When I bottle I like to also brew a new batch for the fermentor... once the wort is cooled, why couldn't I just pour the wort on the yeast cake? I do have a new yeast pack... I still need to start the starter for it... so I figured why not re-use the yeast cake for the same type of beer.
I've done it, when I specifically made a "small beer" in order to have a large amount of yeast for a bigger beer- like 3 gallons of lager, and the entire yeast cake then used for a 10 gallon batch of lager.
But for the most part, it's not a good idea. here's some good reading on it: http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f163/why...t-cake-166221/
I've done it a couple of times when I didn't have new/washed yeast and wanted to flip batches quickly. I haven't had any problems in my few times doing it but yoopers thread has some great info. Give it a try... It's only beer!
I want to try washing my yeast, not yet but i intend on starting 1 gallon beers and brewing every 3 weeks on the dot and I would like to only buy yeast every 3rd or 4th brew (heard that yeast mutates funky after the 3rd or 4th generation) so I would be interested in a very fast washing method.

Sandpiper Dunes: Swakopmund
If you are travelling with a group of friends, for business purposes or with the family and kids, then i strongly recommend the Sandpiper Dunes. This is a gorgeous self catering Hotel with excellent service, amazing units which each comprise up to 3 bedrooms with double or single beds and a braai (BBQ) indoor area. Its living room is spacious and the kitchen has everything you could possibly need. No need to buy plastic plates etc because they stock it all! Theres a lovely swimming pool ,well and safely gaurded for the kiddies and chairs for that sunbathing afternoon and a entertainment room with a pool table etc. Whats brilliant about it is that its situated on the outskirts of Swakopmund on the way to Walvis so if you need your privacy to escape from the city. here you will find it. If you also wish to escape for a walk along the beach or perhaps in the desert, well then this is the perfect location too. The only negtiave aspect i found was that one might need their own car because there isn't a shop in the vicinity and therefore one would have to go into the city for supplies. Its a small area whith other accomodation places and private homes which are gorgeous sights for the eyes so therefore there is security walking around and at night its safe too.
I found the service and the staff exceptional and friendly and professional in their manner. The house-keeping was done everyday and when we arrived at the end of a long day we always returned to a spotless unit. If your with a huge group renting out half of the place, like we were and quit a noisy bunch too....its such a relaxed environment that noone minds and everyone just relaxes and does their own thing.
I must say it left a fantastic impression on me and if you should ever consider visiting this area then i strongly recommend that you check out this place!
As i mentioned:
-Swimming Pool
-Entertainment Area
-Kiddies play park (small but sufficient)
-Beach a few steps away
-Desert across the road
-Indoor BBQ area/fireplace (with everything included...ok except the meat and charcoal...dont push your luck)
-Wireless Internet
-Own television.
-Main Bedroom with bathroom and seperate bathroom too for other rooms.
Everything you need in one place...!

Alternative Space: Great Place to stay in Swakopmund
A bit out of town, but the place is truly unique. Frenus and Sibylle Rohrig are your congenial hosts, and Frenus is an architect, so you really have a very unique mixture of unique rooms and indoor and outdoor living space. Each room is unique. Frenus is a great host and if you want some interesting conversation, he was a wealth of local knowledge.
Unique and pleasant rooms, with a great mix of indoor and outdoor living space. Georgette loved the outdoor bathtub and took full advantage of it.
Parking is a bit quirky, you can fit four vehicles, but Frenus may have to park yours for you and if you are the first one in, you will be the last one out.
Location is perhaps the biggest drawback, as you are a good 4 minute drive / 15 minute walk from downtown.
Frenus and Sybille live about three doors down, so when you ring the doorbell, it rings at their house and someone comes dashing down the street to let you in.

I noticed that most of the overland tour groups stay here. Did not go in, but it seemed like it was more the younger crowd that stayed here.

Even when is not near downtown, i really enjoyed this nice bed and breakfast, (great rooms), i stayed at the cormoran´s room. I was the only guest at that time, but the staff was very friendly and helpful. They even took me downtown in their own car. Highly recommended.

'American Idol' Country Finalists: Where Are They Now? [Pictures]
You may be surprised just how many country singers got their start on American Idol.
You may be surprised just how many country singers got their start on American Idol.
Fast-rising country star Casey James debuted his new single 'The Good Life' on 'American Idol' Thursday night (April 4), coming back to the place where it all began.
Thursday (April 4) is going to be one heck of a country music-filled night on 'American Idol.' Not only is Season 4 winner Carrie Underwood taking the stage to debut her new single 'See You Again' for the 'Idol' faithful, but former contestant Casey James will be on hand for the live premiere of his new song 'The Good Life' during the very same episode.
Casey James' third single from his self-titled debut album is a pleasing three minutes and five seconds, but the toe-tapper is easy to forget. 'The Good Life' lacks the emotional hook that the best carefree country expressions posses.
What do Joel Crouse, Brett Eldredge, Florida Georgia Line and Casey James have in common? They've all been invited to fill the guest slots on Taylor Swift's upcoming Red Tour, which launches March 13 in Omaha, Neb. Talk about a sweet gig.
Fans present at the Casey James concert at the Grizzly Rose in Denver, Colo. last weekend were treated to a healthy dose of new material from the 'Cryin' on a Suitcase' newcomer.
The Taste of Country Christmas Tour is only a few days away! That means that Casey James and JB and the Moonshine Band will be taking the stage. Cadillac Cruz recently interviewed Casey James and called him out on being a momma's boy!
December is here and that means the Taste of Country Christmas Tour will be here in no time! With two great acts taking the stage the question arises, 'Who'd you rather have a beer with, Casey James or JB and the Moonshine Band?'
During the month of November, Casey James and his band grew out their beards for No Shave November. Last Friday, during a concert, he shaved it off on stage.
It's always fun when bands host contests in honor of their music. JB and the Moonshine band is doing just that. In honor of their latest single, 'Kissing Me That Way' they are hosting a Kissing Booth Photo Contest.
Casey James is known for two things: him music and his beautiful blonde curls. But have you ever wondered how he discovered he had curly hair?
It's nice when bands use their celebrity status for a good cause, especially helping kids. Casey James and his band are teaming up with St. Jude Children's Hospital for 'No Shave November.'

Lost and found: What do you do?
It's not unusual for us to find stuff when we're out on the trail. Rope, earrings (who wears earrings while hiking?), knives, sunglasses, tent stakes, even money. Since we generally pack out whatever garbage we find, sometimes we'll bring things home with us (particularly the cash – finder's keepers!). Sometimes we'll just leave whatever it […] [Read More]
More wildflowers
We didn't see as many wildflowers this weekend as we did the week before. I suspect it's because of the type of forest we were hiking through – spruce and pine, which makes for more acidic soil and a lot less sunlight. So we saw a handful of red trillium, a couple trout lily, some […] [Read More]
A wild goose chase (literally!) near Crane Pond
After taking us up the wrong mountain on last week's bushwhack, we decided this week to stick to the marked trails of the Pharaoh Lake Wilderness. Our trip was a fairly easy 8-mile loop past four scenic ponds, a marsh that's nearly a pond and several nice waterfalls. We started at the official beginning of […] [Read More]
Herb vs. the Outside Magazine Buyer's Guide
We received our copy the latest Buyer's Guide from Outside Magazine in the mail the other day. To the hiker, this is a lot like the Sport's Illustrated Swimsuit Issue as in it's filled with stuff that I'll probably never have. Still it's fun to admire (I'm talking about the gear guide.) I thought I'd […] [Read More]
Mud, glorious mud
It's that time of year again… I wrote a short article for today's paper on mud season. It includes some hard-won lessons, such as: don't dry your boots in the sun and invest in a pair of gaiters. I wish we had some funny mud stories to share, but all we have is run-of-the-mill "I […] [Read More]
A new, "exhaustive" history of the 46ers
Monday's Times Union featured this story on the new book out about the Adirondack 46ers, "Heaven Up-h'isted-ness: The History of the Adirondack Forty-Sixers and the High Peaks of the Adirondacks." We haven't read it, so can't really provide an opinion, but writer Paul Grondahl notes it's 702 pages and calls it "authoritative and exhaustive." I was […] [Read More]
I've done all the dumb things (part one of a seemingly endless series)
You're five miles from home on a morning bike ride, late for work, your bike has a flat tire and you're dressed in lycra. Could things get any more frustrating? I had to ask. Yes, yes they can get more frustrating. "Be positive," I told myself as I grabbed the tools out of the small […] [Read More]
Old friends and an interesting stranger
Despite my pessimism on Friday, our hike Saturday to Barton High Cliffs was not a water-logged disaster. In fact, though the brook we followed was running really high, the ground itself was pretty dry. We saw the Schroon River as we went down Rt. 8 from Chestertown and it was roaring – quite a few […] [Read More]
Climbing every mountain… except the one you set out to climb
Bushwhacking — that is, hiking without a trail by map and compass — is a humbling experience. I was reminded of that again Saturday on what I thought would be a fairly easy trip. Ten of us set out for the Barton High Cliffs. The cliffs are pretty amazing, nearly 300 feet high in places […] [Read More]

I inherited a few Cascade/Centinneal plants in the off season from a friend (4-5 yrs old). We've had a significant drought here in Northern California with consistently warm conditions and i noticed the hops are starting to come up already. Should I think about trimming these back as its so early in the season or just let them go. This has probably been covered but i couldn't find it. Thanks
I'm not experienced by any means but seems I've read in Heironymus' For the Love of Hops that some folks routinely cut back the first growth, forcing stronger but slower growing sprouts to emerge. I haven't seen a thing with my cascades yet and hope I don't till I can get some transplanted to a better location this year. Had the site prepped weekend before last but horses knocked down the fence & thrashed things pretty badly. Last weekend was a deluge so hoping to complete the job this weekend. I need to move about 20 crowns - hope I'm not too late.
Wow. My beds are under a couple of feet of snow with more on the way. If the past three years are prologue it'll be a solid two months before any hop shoots break ground around here...
My two 2nd year plants are just coming up but no where near as tall as in your pics. I read that you should let them go until about March then cut them back to the ground and new shoots should come up. You can let them go but they will have a poor harvest.
I could be wrong so do some research. This drought sucks doesnt it!
I'm in East Bay. The three crowns i bought and planted last November are sprouting now too (Feb 8). My 7 other plants (2nd 3rd and 4th year) are still dormant.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Home Brew mobile app
Just noticed my 2 yr cascades are doing the same thing.... While I love the weather I'm not too sure how this is gonna affect the crop. Unless someone has a better idea I was just gonna cut them back until April/May....?
I transplanted a couple of dozen cascade crowns today. They're just starting to bud, longest buds were maybe 3/4". These were planted along side my pool fence in some pretty poor soil that came out of the pool excavation. I added soil amendments (sand & compost) when I planted last year but I wasn't happy with how they did there. They're in my garden now.

DEFINITION of 'Reverse Floater'
A floating-rate note in which the coupon rises when the underlying reference rate falls. The floating rate resets with each coupon payment and may have a cap and/or floor. The underlying reference rate is often the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), the rate at which banks can borrow funds from other banks in the London interbank market, the most common benchmark for short-term interest rates.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Reverse Floater'
For example, the coupon on a reverse floater may be calculated as: principal*(10%-LIBOR).
Floaters (bonds or other types of debt whose coupon rate changes with short-term interest rates) are also known as "floating-rate debt." Reverse floaters offer guaranteed principal and are an option for investors looking to benefit from falling interest rates.

Ratings & Reviews
Overall, others give this:
via sears.com
Good Material but more importantly, a accurate fit according to size ordered (not always the case).
Glen Allen, VA
via sears.com
These pants are well constructed and comfortable. They are a loose fitting pant that is good for working in or casual wear. They may seem a little stiff when first purchased but a couple of washes and they feel great!
Ketchikan, AK
These pants are really good. Had to order two to find a pair that fits. I fit normally a size 34 to 36 waist. The first pair i ordered was a 36" waist. These were tighter than any 34 pants i have on both my thighs and waist. I then ordered the 38" waist. They fit, but are a little snug. As for comfort, they are spot on. Haven't had them long enough to justify a complete review.
Jarrettsville, MD
via sears.com
I ordered two different colors and both came the same, but was happy just to get anything. My son loves these for his work.
via sears.com
Our son works in heavy industry and gets through work clothes frequently. Although he normally buys C******ts, they are expensive. This time we got him these for a gift and they have perfomed slightly better than the expensive option. - Way to go!!
Denville, NJ
via sears.com
I was very surprised how well they fit. Normally these kind of pants don't fit too well and are pretty uncomfortable but not these. They wash well also.
Birmingham, AL
via sears.com
These pants are extremely beneficial to the blue collar working man who needs to look somewhat professional. There are a lot of tool pockets which make house projects much easier. Good buy!
via sears.com
Clip on tags said right size. Tag in pants were sizes too small. Pants too small.
The reviewer indicated they are affiliated with this product.
Los Osos, CA
via sears.com
The pants appear to be well made with decent tool pockets. I don't expect the canvas duck fabric to last as long as heavy cotton duck, but the lighter weight is a benefit on hot days. Regardless, using knee pads will save the knees (the primary wear point for me) on any work pants, so I expect these to hold up well enough to be a good value overall.
Palmdale, CA
via mobile
Love this pants I recommend them to my coworker in construction

Flosstradamus spent the last 8 years breaking new sounds around the globe and becoming club kings in the process. But how do they keep doing it? J2K and Autobot's knack for flipping your favorite tracks in unexpected new ways (from their earliest DJ blends to high-energy hybrids like the duo's hit remix of Major Lazer's "Original Don") certainly helps. So does having a catalog of original bangers on Fool's Gold, Green Label Sound and Mad Decent/Jeffree's. Yet the real reason Floss has been able to reinvent party rocking for close to a decade is because these Chicago boys bring an irresistible sense of fun to every single set, whether it's a sweat-soaked nightclub or in front of thousands at Lollapalooza. Armed with a gang of new tunes straight from the studio and a brand new, extra-hype stage show, Flosstradamus is coming back to a town near you… get ready to juke!

by Nathaniel Darnell of Persevero News - Women Against Feminism"A man has no right to define for himself what his wife will do to please him. He must adopt Christ's ideas, as revealed in Scripture, for what a wife must do to be a helpmeet to a husband and for what he must do to love her. Ephesians 5 tells us that this entails him giving up his life for her as Christ does for His Bride the Church. This involves a tremendous amount of unselfishness. It is a spending and being spent for her. What the authority of a man over his wife amounts to is that he is ultimately responsible for what goes wrong in his family. In the end of the analysis, no matter what the failures of his wife, he takes … [Read more...]
An Open Letter to Duggar Defenders
by Libby Anne cross posted from her blog Love, Joy FeminismMore than two years ago I wrote a blog post titled My Concerns about the Duggars. To this day it continues getting hundreds of hits daily, along with the random comment. Probably half of the comments left on it defend the Duggars as upright, responsible people raising healthy, well-adjusted young people. These comments often lash out against me, calling me bitter and so forth. I've often thought of responding to these comments with further blog posts, but so far I haven't.Today that changes. This post consists of four parts, which deal with the Duggars' subculture, the argument that they are happy so nothing must be wrong, th … [Read more...]

CTBHHM: Wear a Sack
by Libby Anne cross posted from her blog Love, Joy, FeminismCreated To Be His Help Meet, pp. 201—202We're in Debi's chapter on being "chaste," and not surprisingly, we're discussing modesty. I actually found this passage really interesting myself, because there are several times when Debi departs from the conventional evangelical script—though not in good ways.A chaste woman is a modest woman. God speaks of a woman maintaining her chastity and purity by the clothes she wears. "In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array; But (which becometh women professing godlines … [Read more...]

Of every virtue a child could have, the one my mother prized above all else wasobedience. My mother was influenced by Michael Pearl's book, To Train Up a Child, which stipulated that obedience should be immediate and without question—and with a smile.

Mother and ducklings Adrift on Louis Road
Original post made by Nancy, South of Midtown, on May 28, 2007
But, it's Memorial Day so there is no one available to rescue the family. So far they've probably survived raccoons, possoms and neighborhood cats, but the crows are circling overhead just waiting to pick them off.

I once, together with a neighbor, escorted a lost family of ducks from our front yard to the safety of the creek. It was a long arduous journey for them, but a pleasant afternoon activity for us. We stopped traffic, encouraged them out of dead ends and eventually were rewarded by the family swimming away, completely non-plussed at the excitement they caused. My neighbor and I became closer friends and we both had a story to tell. The rewards for us were probably just as lasting as it was for the ducklings. I encourage anyone to do the same. We didn't have to capture them, just help. They don't need rescue, just a little enterprise and time from their human neighbors.
Don't miss out on the discussion!
