From Sugar Hill Gang to Biz Markie to Kanye to Drake, this is the abbreviated history of crooning MCs.
Drake's opening bars on "Pound Cake/Paris Morton Music 2″ could cost him and his label some money.
April Fool's Day, Drake dropped "Draft Day", a tribute song for fellow Canadian, Heisman winning quarterback Johnny Manziel. In the song, the YMCMB rapper also responds to JayZ's diss and more.
Via Soundcloud, Drake released a new song last night (April 1st), 'Draft Day.' The big question is if he is responding to Jay Z's verse on Jay Electronica's 'We Made It' remix. Which you can find out more inside 'The Wire.' Listen here and tell us what you think.

Homestead Brand Nectar
A friend of mine has purchased this store bought nectar thinking that the label stating that is stuff is better for the birds, was accurate.
It contains some vitamins and calcium (along with the #40 dye of course) it also states that #40 dye has been approved by the FDC? or something or other, for animals and humans.
So, the Readers Digest answer, that I can offer him? What benefit/risk ratio exists with this vs home made sugar water?
Too bad he got taken. I'd tell him to take it back for a refund or throw it out. If he wants to know why tell him to read up on red 40 at this link.
Here is a link that might be useful: Should I add red dye to my hummingbird food?
Plain sugar water is cheaper! But let's say your friend is rich and weighs 180 lbs. I've read that hummers can consume up to 2 times their body weight in water each day. Let's just say they only consume their body weight. Ask him how long he thinks his kidneys would last if they filtered #40 red food coloring from 21.6 gallons of water each day?
Any Hummer expert (I'm NOT one) will tell you that dye is harmful, and homemade nectar is preferred over any store bought kind...a simple 4/1 water to sugar ratio...very inexpensive and easy...I put mine in the fridge, then make new nectar, and add to the other, so I'm never without any and it doesn't disrupt the feeding.

Vina Alicia Paso de Piedra Malbec 2007
Malbec from Argentina, South America
Winemaker's Notes
Deep purple in color, with a spicy aroma, plum, raisins, and dark cherry-like flavors. Tannins are soft, velvety, and sweet. Very elegant, full-bodied, and a long finish which shows off its splendor and richness.
Enjoy with pasta, roast lamb suckling, lamb, cheese, fish and other white meats.
Critical Acclaim
International Wine Cellar - "Medium ruby. Slightly high-toned aromas of blackberry, licorice and crushed pepper show a lightly roasted quality that is enticing. Rich, intense and seamless, with a penetrating sweetness to the black fruit and smoked meat flavors. This, too, is impressively deep for the price. Finishes rich and long, with sweet tannins and a note of roasted chestnut. "
Vina Alicia Winery
Alicia Arizu established Viña Alicia in 1996. With 25 years of research in both viticulture and wine making, she dedicated herself to creating Mendoza's most elegant wines from vineyards that have been in her family for 3 generations in Mendoza's Lujan de Cuyo.
Viña Alicia has two vineyards: "San Alberto" and "Viña Alicia" in Lujan de Cuyo. The geographical location, the type of soil and the regional climate place these lands among the most wanted lands of the world. Climate is template, Mediterranean, dry and the scarce rainfalls (180 mm, annual average) add up to the ideal conditions for vine growing. The soil origin is alluvial and has a loam-silty to sandy texture. Water for irrigation comes from the snow break in the high mountains of the Los Andes mountain range, through a unique irrigation system in the world. All these benefits plus water management according to the actual growing needs in terms of frequency and quantity make Lujan de Cuyo the first viticulture zone in Argentina.

About ArgentinaView a map of Argentina wineries (ahr-jen-TEE-nah)
Notable FactsUnlike its Chilean neighbor, Argentina's vineyards are spread out around the country. The best known region is Mendoza, almost parallel to Santiago to the west. Mendoza contains the sub-regions of Maipu (pronounced MY-pu) and San Rafael. Grape-wise, the most important white is Chardonnay, making wine similar to California's style on the variety. Another fun white grape to try is Torrontes. Almost only grown in Argentina, Torrontes makes wines that are crisp, aromatic and easy-drinking. Some of the best versions of this wine come from the northern region of Salta, with very high altitude vineyards. As for the reds, Cabernet Sauvignon is the main grape for many wines leaving the country, but Malbec, the grape Argentinians like to call their own, makes very distinctive wines that are structured, dense and velvety. Many more varieties happily grow in the country, but for export, and consistent quality, these are the primary grapes.

Alcohol By Volume GuideMost wine ranges from 10-16% alcohol by volume. Some varietals tend to have higher (for example Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon) or lower alcohol levels (Pinot Noir and many white varietals), but there is always some variation from producer to producer. Some wine falls outside of this range, for instance Port weighs in closer to 20%, while Muscat and Riesling are usually a bit below 10%.
Wine Style Guide
Light & Fruity
- Red wines that are more fruit-forward and lighter in tannin and body.
Smooth & Supple
- Medium bodied reds that go down easy, with smooth tannins and supple fruit.
Earthy & Spicy
- Wines where earthy and/or spicy dominate the flavors – typically medium to full body.
Big & Bold
- Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.

Cyberpunk isn't Dead
The original Deus Ex has a fond place in my heart. The large amount of choice and intriguing dialogue options were a new experience for me, in a time when few games had (at least succesfully) done so before. Although I still enjoyed it, the second game in the series failed to capture that same feeling of wonder. With Deux Ex: Human Revolution, I was entrapped in a way not experienced since the original game. Deus Ex was back and better than ever.
In 2027 (the year in which the game occurs), mechanical human augmentation is becoming increasingly popular due to the promises of increased strength, speed, cognitive abilities, concentration, etc. that they promise. This has resulted in a social divide between those who feel that the humanity is playing god with augmentations and thus wish for them to be abolished, and people who embrace augmentations as the next stage in human revolution.
In Deus Ex: Human Revolution, you play as Adam Jensen: newly appointed chief of security at Sarif Industries. Early in the story, a tragic incident occurs, which leaves Adam fatally wounded. Heavy augmentation surgery is performed to save his life, essentially making him half man and half machine. Soon after recovery, Adam performs a mission which leads him on a long, and twisty road filled with themes of conspiracy and morals coming to the forefront.
As a whole, the story in Deus Ex: Human Revolution is fantastic. Many interesting characters with contrasting personalities help to keep the player interested and emotionally involved in the next act, which is propelled by an interesting setting and atmosphere. The game makes you care about the characters, while at the same time throwing enough curve balls that you're never really sure about who exactly is a good guy or not. And in some ways, no one is. Characters have noticeable flaws which remove the aura of invincibility which many games seem to place on the shoulders of the designated "good guys".
In addition to this, the world of Deus Ex: Human Revolution is very immersive. Outside of the main goals, there are side-quests to undertake and a large amount of information which can be obtained from computers, newspapers, ebooks and other sources. Much of this information has absolutely nothing to do with the main story at hand and instead simply intends to portray the world as "real", which it succeeds in doing. There are many easter eggs as well, pointing fun at Nigerian 419 scams, or referencing Megadeth. The game succeeds in being serious, with a sense of humour. There are also several subtle tie-ins to the original game in the series, which explain the early goings on of events leading to Deus Ex.
Deus Ex displays a very renaissance-esque contrasting of gold and black visuals to a stunning effect, and is one of the major selling points which keep the player invested in the world they're exploring. Displaying the traditional cyberpunk visuals of "high society and low life", large corporations are noticeably high class, while streets are quite the opposite. Eidos Montreal has done a fantastic job of showing the Deus Ex universe the way that people would expect to see it.
The music in Deus Ex: Human Revolution, assists greatly in enhancing the story and cyberpunk feel to the game. Consisting mostly of electronic music (although not the kind you would hear in a dance club) , it helps to bring the world of Deus Ex to life. The soundtrack varies from dramatic, to suspenseful, to depressing, all fitting of the location and scenario in question.
One of the great things about Deus Ex: Human Revolution, is the ability to play the game in one of several ways. You can initiate a firefight and play the game like a traditional shooter. You can play stealthy by sneaking about, hacking doors and finding alternative routes through vents or climbing scaffolding. Or you can play somewhere in the middle, by taking the direct route, but instead eliminating enemies with close range takedowns while their back is turned and then hiding the body so others won't see your handy work. For the majority of the game, I played a combination of the latter 2, and it was extremely thrilling and satisfying every time I performed a takedown. In the last few hours of the game, I decided to take the more full frontal approach since the heavy assault rifle in my inventory was just too tempting. It was also very satisfying, and many of the death-dealing weapons definitely succeed in catering to those just wishing to deal death without all this sneaking around business. Very little manages to make a person feel like a badass more than unloading a combat rifle into someone as you run at them, and then punch their friend in the face, knocking them out instantly.
Playing the game in the stealthy way, performing non-lethal takedowns on enemies provides the most experience, although to be fair, it is also the most difficult way to play the game. The difference can be large per enemy (a non-lethal takedown rewards 50 experience, while shooting an enemy to death will only reward 10), however it never really feels unfair at any point. There were a few locations, where after spending a large amount of time trying to sneak around 2 enemies with little success, I simply shot them in 2 seconds and was on my way. It felt like a fitting trade off.
The combat system in Deus Ex: Human Revolution is very intuitive, yet controls are comfortable enough that making a choice to do a quick takedown on someone will occur as soon as you think about it. Fumbling around for the proper keys was a problem I rarely encountered. In many games with cover mechanics, "sticking" to a wall when you need to move quickly, or not being able to stick fast enough are common problems. This is definitely not the case in DX:HR. Holding the right mouse button allows the player to press against a wall, and releasing the button will instantly remove Adam from this position, allowing for a surprising level of fluidity in movement, which is especially noticeable when trying to play as a stealth character or sneaking up on someone for takedowns.
Takedowns play a large role in the overall gaming experience. If the player decides to go the stealth route, it will be their primary form of combat since it generates no noise and allows the player to instantly hide the body. Even when playing in Duke Nukem mode however, takedowns have a very critical and valuable role. If an enemy sneaks up on you from behind or you manage to get close to an enemy, takedowns will instantly resolve the problem, regardless of how heavily armored the opponent is (something especially important when fighting heavily armored enemies that require a large number of rounds to kill). When taking an enemy down, you have the option of doing a lethal or non-lethal takedown, both of which have multiple extremely satisfying animations. Choosing between lethal and non-lethal is as simple as deciding between pressing or holding the takedown key when in range. Although I was apprehensive at first, since I was afraid I would accidentally perform a lethal takedown when I didn't want to, I was pleasantly surprised that this never occurred. Takedowns require a bar of energy to perform, which is something that recharges over time and can be enhanced through augmentations.
Hacking makes a return in DX: HR. In the original Deus Ex, hacking was one of the few areas which I felt could be improved. It was simply a matter of waiting until the hack was finished with no real interaction at all. Improving your hacking skill didn't make any real change to the interaction. Human Revolution has created a very fun and interesting hacking mini-game, which not only requires user interaction, but some luck and risk versus reward as well. You must move from node to node, trying to either get to the circular data center you're looking for, or to shut down the anti-hacking node. Based on your hacking ability and the level of the node, some nodes are easier or more difficult to hack. You may also fortify already owned nodes to slow down the anti-hacking software if they discover you're there. Some nodes also contain rewards, such as experience, cash or beneficial viruses to aid in hacking, and others assist you in preventing capture. All around, it is a very fun and interactive mini-game that I thoroughly enjoyed through my entire playthrough and I felt it added a lot to the experience.
Augmentations are one of the key elements in Deus Ex: Human Revolution and not only drive the plot, but enhance the character as well. Augmentations provide various forms of passive or manually activated bonuses to Adam Jensen in various ways. Praxis points are used to obtain or enhance augmentations, and can be obtained by finding or buying praxis kits, and through obtaining experience. None of the augmentations are required to beat the game, although many do feel far more useful than others. Putting points into hacking expertise or the stealth cloak feel like a wise investment which will immediately pay off, while spending 2 points on the ability to perform a dual takedown with only a small number of opportunities in the game feels far less so. Certain augmentations definitely exist to help a certain play-style over others. For example, enhancing dermal armor or reducing recoil are only useful for the assault approach, while stealth cloak and silencing footsteps are great for someone wishing to sneak through the game like solid Snake.
That being said, it is still quite possible to play the game a certain way with no beneficial augmentations whatsoever! I didn't obtain any recoil reduction or armor until very late in the game and I still handled myself well in a firefight when they occurred, it just required a bit more strategy than it would have otherwise, and I died more than I probably would have if I hadn't bypassed those augmentations. That's how augmentations are meant to be portrayed in this game: As something which can assist the player in performing a task as opposed to doing it for them. The one exception to this rule are the hacking upgrades. You are unable to hack higher level terminals without the proper augmentations to do so. However, you do not need to hack them at all. Most passwords can be located through computer terminals or through intel obtained from looting enemies or searching rooms.
There are some minor flaws with the game, of which I feel none take away from the experience in any real noticeable fashion. First of all, some of the boss fights (particularly the first) feel a little short and uninspired. Although this may seem like a major issue, I didn't feel this to be the case at all (well, except for that first boss once again). The envionments where you fight bosses are among the most visually appealing of all the sights in the game, and the game does such a great job of building up suspense for the boss fights, that they still manage to be a fun and enjoyable experience, with the feeling that something is on the line prevalent in all of them. The environmental impact was so strong for the 2nd boss fight for example, that it was one of the most enjoyable experiences in the entire game for me.
A lot of people have been complaining about loading times from what I have seen. I will admit that loading times in this game can be a bit frustrating sometimes, especially when you're in an area where you die multiple times and have to wait 7 tedious seconds before loading back in. However, I did not find them so bad as to hamper the experience at all. The longest load times I experienced were less than 20 seconds, and most significantly shorter than that. With the exception of dying, you encounter few enough loading screens that it's a moot point unless you're an incredibly impatient person.
All things considered, Deus Ex: Human Revolution is an incredible game, and is without a doubt one of the best gaming experiences I've had in years. If you are a fan of the original, or of first person shooters/RPGs in general, I would highly recommend picking it up. Eidos Montreal has done an amazing job of bringing cyberpunk to life in the best way possible, and has created a truly immersive experience.

Every single country that implemented a full assault weapons ban saw large reductions in murder rate, specially mass murders and suicides.
Not the completely watered down, no teeth legislation that passed in the US Congress a while ago.
But since a very large and very activist portion of the US population don't want any gun controls, more mass murders will happen, again and again.

Oga fights Jabberwock to free Hilda while Aoi and the gang are playing a game with Lord En after Aoi had defeated Agiel.
"Only you -Kimi to no Kizuna-" by Lc5
Aoi asks Agiel what she and the Pillar Generals are up to. Meanwhile, Behemoth answers the same question to Zenjuro and his friends. The, he spots Oga and jumps to his location. At Akumano Academy, Agiel charges past Aoi, and she pounces down on Aoi. Yet, she gets hit by Koma's paws. When the others want to help, Aoi charges her power and Koma's demonic aura into her sword, and the two women clash with all their might. Even though Aoi's bokken's tip breaks, she defeats Agiel with her clothes ripped apart. A mob appears. On the roofs of St. Ishiyama, Behemoth explains that Jabberwock is in command of the 34 Pillar division. While the delinquents beat up the mob, Furuichi tells them that these guys are their classmates. Lord En announces that Furuichi is right as he appears with Quetzalcoatl. Back at St. Ishiyama, Hilda attempts to attack Jabberwock, but Jabberwock tells his dragon, Sodom, to catch her after crashing down on them. Genma and Ittousai restrain Oga before he attacks Jabberwock. After Jabberwock and Zenjuro exchange some talk, he and Behemoth ride Sodom into the sky. At Akumano Academy, Lord En uses Quetzalcoatl to explain how the mob of students obey him. He tells the Ishiyama gang that they have to beat them in a game in order to free the mob under their control.
In the skies, Behemoth asks Jabberwock about his impressions of Oga, yet Oga interrupts them. After Behemoth goes away, Oga drinks some of the milk and attacks Jabberwock with his explosive Zebul Emblem. Though, Jabberwock has Oga in his grasp until Oga has Beel shock him to get free. Oga increases his power by drinking more milk. However, his attack fail against Jabberwock. After Oga gets thrown by Jabberwock, Hilda urges Oga to retreat. Oga decides to deliver a Zebul Emblem sextuple hit on the dragon to free Hilda. While Oga, Beel, and Hilda fall, Hilda gets close to Oga and makes him listen her words. She tells Oga to take care of Beel with a smile as she gets swallowed by Sodom. Oga realizes he is out of milk, and Beel opens the bag only to have croquettes come out. Beel starts eating all of the croquettes. Oga realizes that Beel can also have same power up similar to how he drinks Beel's demon milk.
Super Croquette Time!
With new powers, Oga soars through the skies and opens Sodom's jaws open. He grabs Hilda's hand, and the two leap out of the dragon's mouth. Jabberwock orders his dragon to eat Oga, but Oga blows up the beast. He grabs the dragon's feet and throws it at Akumano Academy. Meanwhile, the delinquents are playing a game (Twister) with Lord En. After the dragon has fallen, Oga prepares to fire all his energy into one attack. An massive explosion takes place, and when the debris clear away, Oga, Beel, and the dragon are nowhere to be seen.

Wow! If you guys aren't on board what will it take? I spoke to Bill Dark about him. He just smiled and said "He's freaky good." Stopped 42/43. I believe, while he may lack a bit of positioning, his mobility and lateral movement stood out for me. Unbelievable game from Kevin Bailie. Jump on guys!
I'm not on the Bailie bandwagon and never will be but he has been solid... seems like every post your trying to be the salesmen and convince everyone else... I'm not concerned about him now it's the playoffs and if he's still around that concern me.
Griffith may have had a goal and a couple of helpers but the guy was flat out lazy last night... no hustle didn't battle for any pucks and is turning the puck over too much.
Ferry treats the puck like a hand grenade with the pin out... taking half a second to see if there is a play with the puck is better then icing it and getting a face off in your own end.
Maatta to me is struggling right now... not involved physically and has been standing around alot of goal mouth scrambles that have lead to goals.
I've been saying Zadorov needs to be used more on the PP with that shot... but it's Dale so Zadorov will see 30 seconds a game.
Something that goes unnoticed by most is Kevin Raine's first pass... I really haven't seen him miss one to date and usually the forwards have no problems controlling it and it's usually a smart pass.

I have to admit, I was a little disappointed when I saw the March selection for Sew the Show — Broadway Empire. I had never seen it before but a 1920s-era mobster show just really didn't sound like my cup of tea either in a show or style. Still, I kept an open mind and gave it a try.
Coffee Date {#54}
Happy Friday! After a couple days of cold and rain, it is beautiful again in Kansas and this weekend promises more of the same. The warmth and sun puts me in such a good mood after winter. I know there are many out there who dread the coming of summer, but I love it — the baking sun, the green grass, the blue sky…I pretty much love everything about summer.
Coffee Date {#53}
Hello on this beautiful spring day! I hope everyone had a lovely weekend and a great start to spring break (if your break hits this week like ours does).
If we were having coffee today, I would tell you that we had a nice weekend with my parents. They were down for their monthly visit and it was sunny and warm the whole time they were here. We played outside, went to the park, hiked, rode bikes, and ate out since we didn't feel at all like cooking. Spring weekends are just so much more pleasant than winter ones!
On Dress Forms
A couple of posts about dress form popped up in my feed last week (Cloth Habit here, and Clothing Engineer here), which got me thinking about my own.
I do actually have a dress form, which may come as a surprise to some because it rarely, if ever, appears on this blog. That's because I hardly ever use it. And that's because it's the wrong size.
You might think that the sizing issue should have been apparent when I ordered it, but in my defense, it really wasn't. I ordered a professional body form from The Shop Company many moons ago when reviews and discount codes for them were all over the sewing blogosphere. It's a very nice quality dress form (very nice, particularly considering the cost), and my measurements put me exactly in a size 10.
Finally finished — my Purl Soho Stitch Block Cowl
Wooohoooo!!! This thing is finally DONE!!!!!!!
Okay so now it's almost spring, our temps are almost 60 and technically I finished this cowl a month ago. But we had such a streak of cold weather (rather unusual for Kansas at this time of year) I wore it almost non-stop for at least 3 weeks straight. After all, when it's below freezing outside and you just spent 3 months knitting the warmest, squishiest, most wonderful cowl ever, naturally you must wear it every day.
Coffee Date {#52}
Wow, it has been waaaay too long since we sat down for a coffee date! So much has happened in the last 6 weeks. Some good, most not-so-good and stressful. Wish I had a better report for you but I just don't.
Completed Work Staples: The Sutton Blouse
And now for the other part of my Sew the Show outfit — the True Bias Sutton Blouse.
Another hole in my wardrobe is woven blouses. Now that I'm in a more formal office, it's nice to have some proper blouses to wear to work and to court, rather than knit tanks and t-shirts. The Sutton Blouse was an obvious place to start.
The Absent Woman
It's been too long, my dears. I just realized that I have been absent from this space for a month and haven't posted anything substantive about sewing in longer than I care to calculate. I wish I could tell you that the cause of my absence was something fun and exciting but my mother taught me not to lie.
Last month, Alida from Alida Makes announced a really fun sew along for the year called Sew the Show. Each month she selects a Netflix show and asks sewists to make an outfit inspired by that particular show. Like many others out there, I use my sewing time to catch up on Netflix shows, so I loved the idea of this challenge!
The first show Alida selected was new to me — a BBC drama called The Honorable Woman. Since I had never seen it before, obviously I had to watch the show to get inspiration for my Nessa Stein-inspired outfit. I can already tell that this monthly challenge will be both good and bad for my TV-consuming habits! I loved The Honorable Woman. I watched the whole mini series in just a few days — I couldn't pull myself away!
But on to my outfit. Nessa Stein, played by Maggie Gyllenhaal — wears simple, utilitarian, but classically beautiful business dress clothes. She has a penchant for solid-color silk blouses, wide-leg trousers and simple shifts. She also spends a lot of the show in her silk undergarments, but I opted to build my work wardrobe with this challenge instead :)
Coffee Date {#51}
If we were having coffee this morning, I would tell you that it's been a seriously rough week at our house. J was sick but that actually wasn't our major stressor. I can't really talk about it here but I'm hoping next week will bring some resolution.
Is January too early to plan for Me-Made-May?
Ok so I know it's only January and Me-Made May is still 3 months away, but I'm already starting my planning!
You see, I love participating in MMM every year — it's such a great way to connect with the larger sewing community — but this May will present a few me-made challenges for me. Specifically, I am scheduled to be in a 3-week trial for almost the entire month!

Who needs white? Part traditional, part funky, Gwen Stefani's bridal gown was kind of like her. The one-of-a-kind gown the No Doubt songstress wore when she married Bush frontman Gavin Rossdale in London in 2002 was solid white on top, but had a burst of rosey pink on the ample train. The Christian Dior dress, created by John Galliano, is now on display at the Victoria and Albert Design Museum in London.

Playing this game and love it as a "side" game for me.
I don't outright play it, I just turn on a battle and just afk and go to another game.(battles are automated for you, based on the skills you pick which have a certain proc rate during each turn).
Lots of ways for newbs to improve and many servers (chances to redo your character).
Simple game for casual playing, IMO.

Okra Yields Question
Hi GW,
My family eats gombo weekly and we use about four pounds of okra each week to make our gombo. I am planning to grow my own okra again this year - this time working with Clemson Spineless seeds. My question is, how many okra plants do I need to have to be able to harvest four pounds per week in total? We have a lot of sun, if that's of any help.
PLEASE if someone knows the answer, I'll be superhappy. Thank you.
(As a side note, if anyone knows how high my raised bed should be for Okra plants (minimum height, please), I would really appreciate it. We have a weed mat on the ground made of some sort of cloth...if that's relevant)
Black plastic mulch. http://www.gardenharvestsupply.com/ProductCart/pc/Black-Plastic-Mulch-1-Mil-Smooth-3-x-50-p360.htm
4 lbs a day would be a lot of plants. They arn't the tightest spaced veg, nor the garden's biggest producer. You may be better served by growing less of your own and picking a variety for flavor and then supplementing your own harvest with some high yeild commercial varieties from the farmers market or store.
4 pounds per week would translate to between 25 and 35 plants. My rule of thumb is to have 2 okra plants every 18 inches. You could squeeze that much into a single raised bed about 9 feet long by 4 feet wide using 3 "rows" each with 6 hills of 2 plants. It would require cutting okra in the middle of the bed which could be a "prickly" proposition.
Perfect DarJones. Thank you everyone for your feedback. I need just that, four pounds per week. I'm hoping to maybe put additional dwarf plants into containers to ensure that I have enough to freeze for the winter months, too. 25 to 35 plants sounds PERFECT. Thanks again for your help!
The variety was Clemson Spineless. It was also a great year for Okra, Dry and Hot! However, the best thing was the plastic mulch and spacing it one foot apart. I have never had Okra do this well before. I am planning on doing the same thing this year and see what the results are.
Plastic mulch or landscape fabric (that is what I used) comes in 3 foot by 50, 100 or 300 foot rolls. I am using black plastic mulch this year and I purchased a 4,000 foot roll. I will have it around for a few years!

Tree peonies from seed
I know it could take years to see a bloom, but I really want to try these tree peonies from seed. My grandmother saved them for me from hers. I have regular peonies, but they seem to grow like no-brainers. Any tips on growing tree peonies from seed would be appreciated, as I am starting from zero here.
I'm guessing you have the seed now? This year's seed should be ripe by now. Sow immediately. The easiest way for you would just be to place it outside, possibly in a covered container or a cold frame. You should then see a shoot in spring. Growth will be slow, you'll have to pamper it for the first year or two. Do you know which species you have?
No idea what species. Two different ones a light pinkish and a darker wine color. Will try some in containers.Thanks for your response. Wish me luck!
Pink peony seeds are supposed to be the sterile ones...they will not germinate. I treat my tree peony seeds in exactly the same way as herbaceous peony seeds.
In one of those shallow containers that you get deli olives & stuff at the grocery store, 1/2 fill with vermiculite, moisten, then mix the seed in. Put the lid back on & stick it in the fridge, pulling it out every 2 weeks or so to see if they've germinated. Once you see the primary root, take them out of the fridge and pot them up. Sometimes you get a leaf in summer #1, sometimes the first leaf waits until summer #2. Either way, peonies from seed will take several years to flower.
I always allow at least one pod of seeds to form on each of my tree peonies, then I let the seeds fall to the ground. It's rare that I do not have seedlings every spring. I gave away 3 really nice sized plants last spring. They were 3 years old. Some of the 3 year plants have bloomed for me. I have lavendar, red yellow pink and white tree peonies. Lots of the seedlings are maroon. It's always fun to see what you will get for color.
They are all only making 1 leaf so far on their 1st year, but I think that 1 leaf is very important given that it gives them all the photosynthesis they need for the following years.
Only thing I can do is give them ideal conditions, and hope they come back a lot stronger the following year.
Here is a link that might be useful: tree peonies sprouting
1st yr tp seedlings are tiny;dont be surprised if they completely disappear by end of summer.
2nd yr sdlngs arent much bigger.
Our 3rd yr plants are about 1ft tall.
4th yr plants bloom.
Are your seedlings in pots or in ground?
Good luck!
I have all of them in the ground in a garden bed, and I don't plan on touching them. It looks like most of them are stuck with just 1 leaf for the longest time while it looks like one of them is trying to put on a 2nd leaf, but thanks for the information. I think it's OK to have a bunch of them growing together anyways.

I totally agree with you logic. That's how it is and that's how I want it to stay. So third one for me too.
holy **** this looks twisted and i LOVE IT!
good job sir!
you just made my day!
lol activision is the Apple of games software :P! take something out, then put it back in when demand rises, giving a fake incentive to customers so they buy their games. Its getting ridiculous and gamers need to stay away from it.
keep dreaming
holly hell....something real bad is gonna happen here :P
yup +1 on that. awesome update btw!
lol very nice!
I'd rather start off as a mod and see where it goes from there. Good response, consider turning into stand alone, bad response don't even think about it. GREAT response = sign up with Valve :P, but o well, i'm just a level designer :/
all links work fine!
grandpa has some serious issues with trippin :P
there is a wad file installed with ZHLT tools when u install it, (named zhlt.wad). Use that for starters, if you want more wads you have to use a program called GCFScape to extract them from the game you want to mod with GCF's File inside steamapps folder. I didn't cover that here since all I wanted to cover is how to set up Hammer 3.5. For more info google GCFScape from Nemesis on Nem's Tools
nice, this games is gonna be awesome!
NICE!!! very efen nice!
i was here to see it and it looks awesome !!!
i know its supposed to be a pay what u want type of deal but seriously ppl need to pay e bit more damn it!
it's just awesome m8! well done!
it's the same process as counter-strike only that you change the name and directories according to where your blue shift folders are
the FGD is in thte folder where Valve Hammer Edit (it was automatic for me so there is no difference what version of the game u have). You need to find the executable files and put them according to ur installation folders, ie: C:\Program Files\Valve\half-life\cstrike might be your mod directory if u're mappin' for CS
right on time :)
got it :P
seeing this thing and thinking: how the f#@! did we loose to the combine!?
Black Mesa related? what happened before Adrian went on Black Mesa? Maybe! O.o Who gives a rats *** lol as long as it looks like that IM SOLD!!! You already had me at the freaking water reflections :P. o o maybe multiplayer?!
Usually when the possibilities let me and CON = NONE :P I do everything from scratch, otherwise when time is short I use some already tested method.
o common do u really have to tease us :P +1 tracker
looking awesome right there!!!
O FUUUU i KNOW this is gonna bring some PAIN!!!
i wish...im half a world away with little to no money :P
the game is failing to copy the files you just executed to the default map folder the game has...my suggestion is change the folder where your maps get rendered to the default one I wrote above or before u run the map copy it to the default location and when u get ingame open the console (`) and type: map yourmapnamehere (enter)
PS: make sure you wrote the correct address on the Build Programs tab
images and videos, simply cause it takes to much do describe something in words when u just can see it yourself!
good stuff, keep it going :)
it was awesome the viral campaign they did a wile ago :)!!!!

Married Michigan same-sex couples seek recognition By The Associated Press • Aug 21, 2014 user dbking / Flickr DETROIT (AP) - A lawyer has urged a judge to order Michigan to recognize same-sex marriages performed in March, saying the unions are valid even if a higher court reinstates the state's gay marriage ban. More than 300 couples were married before an appeals court suspended a decision that had overturned the ban. The American Civil Liberties Union insists those marriages are legitimate. But Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder, unlike the federal government, won't recognize them while the legality of gay marriage remains contested in court. ACLU attorney Julian Mortenson says a marriage performed when gay marriage was legal can't be broken by the state. He urged federal Judge Mark Goldsmith to issue an injunction Thursday. Michigan wants Goldsmith to wait. A Cincinnati-based appeals court recently heard arguments in cases from four states. Some Michigan Republicans have changed their minds and now support gay marriage By Jack Lessenberry • Jun 18, 2014 Listen Listening... / 3:09 When Rick Johnson became Speaker of the Michigan House of Representatives, I was a little dubious. He was a dairy farmer who had only gone as far as high school, and I worried what this might mean for higher education. But as it turned out, while he was Republican to the core, he was generally a reasonable, open-minded man. Not, however, on the issue of same-sex marriage, which he opposed. That was 10 years ago, and he wasn't alone. A large majority of Michiganders who went to the polls that year voted to amend the state constitution to outlaw same sex marriage forever. But forever didn't last. Across America this year, judge after judge has overturned state prohibitions against same-sex marriage. Same-sex couple from Grand Rapids sues to get state to recognize out-of-state marriage By Lindsey Smith • Jun 12, 2014 Governor Rick Snyder's statement after a federal court overturns Michigan's ban on same sex marriage in March 2014. Christian leaders speak up for same-sex marriage: "We stand with the God of compassion" By Sarah Cwiek • May 23, 2014 Sarah Cwiek / Michigan Radio A group of Metro Detroit clergy leaders stood together Thursday to send a clear message: They support same-sex marriage and equal rights for LGBT people. They also strongly condemned some of their fellow Michigan Christian leaders who are fighting to uphold the state's ban on same-sex marriage. Last week, a group of about 200, mostly Michigan-based black pastors declared that "the fight is on" to protect "traditional" marriage. Same-sex marriage backers launch education campaign in Michigan By Steve Carmody • May 8, 2014 Steve Carmody / Michigan Radio Backers of same-sex marriage are launching what an education campaign that could eventually evolve into a ballot effort to reverse Michigan's constitutional ban on gay marriage. Emily Dievendorf is part of the "Michigan for Marriage" campaign. She says Michiganders need to understand why gays and lesbians want the same ability to marry as heterosexuals. Michigan gay marriage appeal will follow usual track By The Associated Press • Apr 29, 2014 user Tyrone Warner / Flickr DETROIT – A federal appeals court won't give special treatment to Michigan's dispute over gay marriage. The court says the state's appeal of a decision overturning a ban on same-sex marriage will follow the usual course. The case will be heard by a three-judge panel, probably later this year. Attorney General Bill Schuette wanted the full court to leapfrog the panel and take the appeal. But there's no interest from judges at the Cincinnati-based court. A brief order unanimously rejecting Schuette's request was filed Monday. More than 300 same-sex couples were married in March after a Detroit federal judge said Michigan's ban on gay marriage is unconstitutional. The appeals court has suspended the decision while the appeal is pending. Former Republican state representative says he was wrong to oppose same-sex marriage By Stateside Staff • Apr 8, 2014 Dave Trumpie - trumpiephotography.com / Dome Magazine Listen Listening... / 12:31 Former Michigan State Rep. Chris Ward talks about why he regrets his vote on same-sex marriage. It is never too late to offer a public "mea culpa" for taking a political action that you later believe was a serious mistake. That's the idea behind a recent entry on the blog Republicus. Former Republican State Rep. Chris Ward wrote the post declaring that he'd been on the "wrong side of history" when he opposed same-sex marriage during his time in Lansing. Schuette asks for fast action on gay marriage case By Rick Pluta • Apr 4, 2014 Michigan Attorney General State Attorney General Bill Schuette has asked a federal appeals court to put the legal challenge to Michigan's ban on same-sex marriage on a fast track. Schuette is defending Michigan's ban. Schuette's filed a motion with the US Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals to skip a hearing before a three judge panel and go directly to the entire 15-judge court. That could shave months, maybe as much as a year, off the appeals process. Schuette says the question needs to settled regardless of who wins in the end. US Attorney General says federal government will recognize Michigan same-sex marriages By Michigan Radio Newsroom • Mar 28, 2014 U.S. Dept. of Education The federal government will recognize the marriages of 300 gay and lesbian couples performed last weekend in Michigan before more weddings were blocked by an appeals court. That means they will be able file joint federal tax returns and share federal government benefits. "I have determined that the same-sex marriages performed last Saturday in Michigan will be recognized by the federal government," Holder said in a written statement. "These families will be eligible for all relevant federal benefits on the same terms as other same-sex marriages." Democrats ask for recognition of recent gay marriages in Michigan By Rick Pluta & The Associated Press • Mar 27, 2014 Lindsey Smith / Michigan Radio Michigan's congressional Democrats are asking U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder for federal recognition of the more than 300 same-sex marriages performed in the state this past weekend. The letter is signed by Sens. Debbie Stabenow and Carl Levin, and Reps. John Dingell, Sander Levin, Gary Peters and Dan Kildee. A judge ruled last Friday that Michigan's same-sex marriage ban is unconstitutional, but the U.S. Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals put a hold on further same-sex weddings while it deliberates the Michigan marriage case. Yesterday, Gov. Snyder said the marriages performed over the weekend in Michigan are legal, but they cannot be officially recognized by the state because of current law. Here's what he said: In January, U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder said the government would honor same-sex marriages in Utah in a case very similar to Michigan's. The Justice Department so far has said it's monitoring the situation in Michigan.

TORONTO (AP) — Research In Motion Ltd. co-founder Mike Lazaridis said Thursday as he prepared to leave the company for good that the board had asked him to reconsider his decision to step down as co-CEO.
RIM founder says board asked him to stay as CEO
Lazaridis and Jim Balsillie stepped down in January 2012 after several quarters of disappointing results. Lazaridis said he stayed on as vice chairman and a board director to help new CEO Thorsten Heins and his team with the launch of the BlackBerry 10 smartphones, an update considered crucial to the company's future. With that underway, Lazaridis, 52, plans to leave the company on May 1.
In an interview with The Associated Press, Lazaridis said the board wanted both him and Balsillie to stay, but Lazaridis decided "it was the right time" to leave.
"I was asked to reconsider my decision to give up the CEO post, but I promised the board I would assist Thorsten and his team in the completion and development of BB10," he said. "Now with the launch of BB10, I believe I fulfilled my commitment to the board and told them it is now time to move on to my new adventure."
Lazaridis started a new venture capital fund last week and is also a major philanthropist.
Lazaridis said he has no plans to sell his significant interest in RIM. According to FactSet, Lazaridis is RIM's second biggest shareholder with a 5.7 percent stake.
Lazaridis helped turn the email smartphone into a ubiquitous device that many could not live without, but U.S. users moved on to flashier touch-screen phones such as Apple's iPhone and various competing models that run Google's Android software. RIM's modern operating system, BlackBerry 10, faced numerous delays before launching Jan. 31, starting in the U.K. A U.S. launch was further delayed until last week.
Heins, formerly RIM's chief operating officer, took over as CEO and has spent the past year cutting costs and steering RIM toward the launch of new BlackBerry 10 phones. The Waterloo, Ontario-based company said Thursday that it sold about 1 million phones running its new BlackBerry 10 system, more than analysts had expected. It also surprised Wall Street by returning to profitability in the most recent quarter.
Lazaridis said Heins has done an excellent job completing the BlackBerry 10 system and launching it around the world.

Makridakis, Hogarth and Gaba-business professors and risk management experts-explore the powerful role of luck in our lives. For example, it's commonly accepted that to live a long, healthy life, weight, blood pressure and cholesterol should be controlled and smoking is verboten. However, the authors cite an analysis of mortality rates that suggests that these factors have only a minimal effect on longevity-and in the case of body weight, our common knowledge might be entirely wrong. Early sections reconsider medical and investment advice in the light of the unacknowledged and unstudied role of pure chance, and the authors make surprising recommendations: avoid doctors, seek boring investments and ignore almost everything in business books. The second-and weaker-section of the book offers abstract strategies for living with greater uncertainty. Although lacking in specific practical advice, the book is worthwhile for its provocative thesis and its invitation to readers to relinquish the "illusion of control."
