By HaRav Dov Begon
Rosh HaYeshivah, Machon Meir
"Thus did Hillel when the Temple stood: He would combine matzah and marror [bitter
herbs] and eat them together to fulfill what it says, 'They shall eat it with matzah and marror'
(Numbers 9:11)." (Haggadah)
As is known, matzah recalls freedom while marror recalls slavery. Seemingly, the two
are opposites. Even so, Hillel, whose identifying trait was that he "loved peace and would
pursue peace, he loved his fellow men and would bring them close to the Torah" (Avot),
would combine matzah and marror and eat them. Why?
Rabbi Avraham Yitzchak Kook (Olat Re'iyah 289) explains that we have to view
slavery and freedom not as two distinct forces that do not influence each other, but as two
forces which are linked together and which complete each other.
Matzah, symbolizing freedom, alludes to Israel's instinctive love of G-d, His Torah,
His mitzvot and His creations. By contrast, marror, symbolizing slavery, teaches us that we
have to bring that love from a potential to a reality through our being slaves to the will of Gd.
This is exalted enslavement, enslavement to the King of Glory, which is total freedom.
Thus, the perfect form of freedom emerges when it is linked to slavery.
Today, we must learn from Hillel the Elder as we approach reclining on the seder
night as free men. As we celebrate the holiday of freedom, we must tell our children, and
ourselves, the remarkable story of our people when they were first born in the darkness of
Egypt. We must tell of the miracles and wonders which G-d performed by dint of His love
for His firstborn son Israel. We must tell of Israel's good soul, which serves to bring light to
the entire world despite the forces of darkness which rise up against us in every generation
with the intent of snuffing out the light of the world -- it will never be!
We must remember
that freedom truly demands enslavement, and we must combine the two together, as in the
words of Rabbi Yehuda HaLevi (Kuzari 5:205):
"I seek only freedom from enslavement to man. I seek enslavement to One -- to G-d,
because enslavement to Him is freedom, and surrender to Him is the true glory."
With blessings for a joyous festival of freedom,
Looking forward to complete salvation.
By Rabbi Steven Pruzansky, INN
POTUS (the President of the United States) is pouting over the re-election of PM Netanyahu. He withheld his congratulatory phone call to Netanyahu for two days. By comparison, Obama called Iran's Rouhani immediately, perhaps even before the polls closed. Netanyahu received the al-Sisi treatment, another leader who is disfavored by the White House and received the two-day delayed phone call.
There is something perversely delightful in observing the irrational anger in the administration and among Jews on the far left of the political spectrum on Israel's election results. Granted, millions of dollars were wasted trying to unseat Netanyahu and augment the vote the Israeli Arabs – some of that, disgracefully, US taxpayer dollars. Watching another's tantrum is often amusing and it doesn't seem to abate. The commentators and activists who hide their anti-Israel animus behind their Jewish genes – the Friedman's, Klein's and J Street's of the world – are nearly apoplectic.
It is sort of funny – the irrationality of it all, especially considering the number of dictators and thugs with whom Obama plays footsie – but Obama can still be dangerous. Now, the threats against Israel are mounting. As predicted here last month, the US will soon recognize a Palestinian state and seek a UN Resolution that enshrines in international law that amputation of the Jewish homeland. Obama is simply using the Netanyahu's re-election as an excuse to execute one of his cherished goals.
The two pretexts that Obama and the left have seized on were comments made by Netanyahu in the days before and on the day of the election. Last week, he was said to have walked back his support of a "Palestinian" state by saying that such would not happen as long as he was prime minister. For sure, one can see that the ambiguous language used was designed to win him votes from right-wingers who otherwise would have voted for the "Jewish Home."
If one parses his words, Netanyahu was not saying that he was "against" a Palestinian state, but rather that such would not happen while he was prime minister – not because he personally opposes it but because the conditions he placed on the creation of such a state would not occur while he is prime minister. There are no Arab interlocutors who would agree to a demilitarized Palestinian state that recognizes Israel as the nation-state of the Jewish people.
Add to that the radicalization of the Middle East, now well under way, that has brought radical Islam to the gates of Israel – and the dominance of the genocidal Hamas in Gaza and ISIS just over the border – and anyone with sense realizes that conditions are not ripe for the creation of an irredentist Arab state in Israel's heartland. Big shock.
But that statement sent the White House into paroxysms of rage. Rather than attribute the statement to a campaign ploy, Obama went into rhetorical overdrive, and his minions began threatening Israel with dire consequences. How ironic – how drippingly cynical is it – that Obama, of all people, is complaining about the effect of misleading rhetoric. Apparently what Netanyahu should have said on the eve of Election Day was this: "If you like your peace process you can keep your peace process." Indeed, keep it.
Netanyahu's Bar Ilan speech from 2009 in which he unilaterally reversed a campaign pledge (hey, there's a tactic Obama could appreciate) and endorsed a Palestinian state was a mistake, but a tactical mistake. Netanyahu today operates based on a formula that much of the world – even much of the Arab world – tacitly but never explicitly supports: favor the establishment of a Palestinian state in theory but not in practice. From my perspective this too is a mistake – you don't offer your divinely-given patrimony to others because you are effectively renouncing your rights to it – but at least it has strategic value. Indeed, that tactic has worked for five years, as the hatred of the Palestinians for Israel is so intense and unhinged that they have repeatedly rejected the two-state fantasy.
But the diplomatic outrage itself is so contrived as to be farcical. Conventional wisdom is that Israel has walked back from the Oslo Accords and refused to implement the clause calling for a "Palestinian" state. But – note this well – the Oslo Accords did not guarantee or even offer the Arabs of the land of Israel a second "Palestinian" state. (Jordan remains the first.) Yitzchak Rabin opposed a Palestinian state, and he thought – perhaps foolishly – that he could thwart those desires by offering self-rule and Israeli withdrawal.
Nor is support for a "Palestinian" state long-standing Israeli or American policy – exactly the opposite. Until two decades ago, the mainstream of Israeli politics – both Likud and Labor – opposed a Palestinian state. In the 1970's, none other than Shimon Peres himself equated the creation of a "Palestinian" state with the destruction of Israel. So did Golda Meir, Yitzchak Rabin, Menachem Begin and of course Yitzchak Shamir. It was a sign of bad faith, fatal to the electoral hopes of any Israeli politician. It was assumed that a second "Palestinian" state would lead to Israel's demise.
Israeli politics has changed but the basic equation remains the same. The assumption of the 1970's is as true today as it was then. There is not a shred of evidence indicating otherwise, notwithstanding the pronouncements of Israeli politicians or the blathering of the liberal left in the American Jewish community.
American diplomacy also opposed a Palestinian state for decades. Jimmy Carter publicly opposed a Palestinian state (in private he was adamant about it, and was studiously ignored by both Begin and Anwar Sadat). Ronald Reagan was opposed, as was George Bush I. Bill Clinton was opposed, at least until the Israeli left started to weaken and permeate Israeli society with their weakness. It was George Bush II – with the acquiescence of Israel – who officially endorsed a Palestinian state on June 24, 2002 – the same letter in which he endorsed the retention of Israeli settlements in any agreement. As noted here, that part of the letter was renounced by Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. So, tantalizing question, why can the Americans change their minds about paragraph seven of the letter and deem it no longer binding, but Israel cannot do the same about paragraph three of the same letter?
Some questions are only answered by references to double standards and anti-Jewish bias.
Support for a Palestinian state is therefore a relatively new diplomatic phenomenon. More importantly, the Arabs of the land of Israel have consistently rejected this offer – most notably from Ehud Barak in 2000 and Ehud Olmert in 2007. Spend one day in law school, and you will learn that an offer that is rejected is construed as revoked. Israeli concessions do not remain on the table for eternity and certainly not embarrassing concessions that trifle with the sanctity and inviolability of the land of Israel. Finesse it all you want with diplomatese, but it is quite reasonable to maintain that that Israeli offer has been withdrawn in light of the new and catastrophic strategic environment in the Middle East.
The second Obama pretext was Netanyahu's Election Day warning to his constituents that Arabs are voting in "droves" and his supporters must get to the polls. Racist? Hardly. It did frustrate the Obama team's efforts to so discredit Netanyahu that his base would stay home; hence the feigned anger. But, hey, that's hardball politics, with which the Obama team is very familiar. Those who equate producing photo ID's at the American voting booth (by the way, the law in Israel!) with suppression of the black vote (!) cannot in good faith claim that a call for one's voters to vote because one bloc inimical to Israel's national interests is voting in large numbers is racist.
And wasn't Obama the one who told a black audience (August 14, 2012) that if Romney was elected, they would "put y'all back in chains?" No, it was actually Joe Biden, but Obama's White House said that they saw nothing wrong in Biden's remark. And he's complaining about Netanyahu exhorting Likud voters to vote? It is difficult to stomach a White House that uses self-righteous phoniness and feigned outrage as a fig leaf for its Jew hatred. Both are execrable.
What is as clear as the hostility of Barack Obama to Israel is the panic among liberal American Jews. I recall quite well being pilloried for my public opposition to Oslo by liberal Jews and their organizations for "opposing the will of the lawfully elected government of Israel." Hmmm… Will these same Jews and their organizations now defy President Obama – risking their invitations to the White House, photo ops and other perks – by supporting the duly elected Prime Minister of Israel? Will they lovingly embrace – as they should – a Foreign Minister Naftali Bennett?
Or will they persist in their defense of Obama? That Jews can be fooled is obvious. That Jews allow themselves to be fooled is even more obvious. That some Jews beg to be fooled is obvious and sad.
It is crunch time for Jewish identity in America. The land of Israel is under attack, and the people of Israel – and its leaders – have been marked by this administration as global enemy number one. How will those Jews respond? With cowering and double talk, or with pride and outspokenness?
If the latter, then the Netanyahu re-election could not only be good for Israel but it could also spark a revival of Jewish identity and a deeper connection with Israel among all Jews, especially those whose bonds with Jewish life are fraying. That itself could hasten the process of redemption, the only clear and certain way out of the morass.
Until then, let POTUS be POUTUS – but let Jews state firmly and unequivocally that the land of Israel was given to the people of Israel by the G-d of Israel, and no president or prime minister can change that.

If you're looking for anime similar to Earl and Fairy, you might like these titles. All recommendations are made by Anime-Planet users like you!
Fifteen-year-old Tsukune Aono is average in every way; he has no hobbies, less-than-stellar grades and he's even flunked his high school entrance exam. His parents have managed to enroll him in a school, but it's no ordinary school! Tsukune will be attending the Youkai Academy, a place where monsters learn how to co-exist with humans! As the werewolves, vampires, witches and other monsters are required to retain their human forms, Tsukune - the lone human - is able to avoid their bloodthirsty gazes. However, he quickly attracts the attention of a number of devilish beauties including the vampire Moka, a busty succubus and even a young witch! It seems Tsukune's average life isn't so average anymore!
Both Earl and Fairy and Rosario to Vampire have avery similar structure. A romance, in a world of legends; one being faeires, and the other monsters.
Rhiannon is the fair and gentle daughter of a village chief. Unfortunately for her, she's also exactly the sort of maiden who is needed as a sacrifice to wake the Demon King Arawn from his thousand-year slumber and is soon kidnapped for this very purpose. However, when Arawn is summoned, he decides to spare Rhiannon's life, instead killing her captor and freeing her from mind control. Taken with his kindness, Rhiannon immediately decides to marry the Demon King, making him the new village chief. All of this is bad news for Rhiannon's protective but hot-headed brother Arthur, who must now pledge his knightly service to his new Lord, Arawn. Together the three of them must journey and together they must fight, encountering new friends and new foes along the way.

Both Tears to Tiara and Earl and Fairy are very similar feeling animes, in that they center around a world that deals with gaelic/celtic lore, particularly fairys. Tears leans towards action, and Earl leads more towards romance, but both are full of action, adventure, romance and comedy. Very similar series.
Awayuki Himeno is a normal schoolgirl who is in a bind: her father's remarriage yielded two new cruel stepsisters, and to top it off, she meets seven men who call themselves Liefe Knights. They reveal to her that she's a Pretear, someone who can lend powers to them when their powers aren't enough to defeat the evil creatures called mayouchuu. Now, she has to fight the ambitious Fenrir, whose only purpose is to leech the life force from all living beings. Can Himeno save the world and find a way to deal with her growing feelings for one of the Liefe Knights?
They both have strong main female characters. While Himeno is more teenaged & goofy, & Lydia is more adult & sure of herself; they both have one thing in common. They both have a man behind them, the men want to protect & love these women.
In Hayate's case, he's just too chicken to tell Himeno how he feels. Edgar is the opposite, he will do whatever it takes to make Lydia love him back.
They're both lovely & they are both enchanting stories.
A young galaxy is crumbling and their queen is in a deep slumber - but there is hope, for according to prophecy a young girl will become the "Etoile" and save them. Shipping one hundred talented girls to their land, the queen and her nine guardians look for the Etoile to no avail - save for one: Angelique, an insecure and clumsy girl from the countryside. It is she who is destined to fulfill the prophecy. Eventually Angelique accepts her fate, but with so many obstacles to overcome and with doubts in her heart, can she succeed in saving the galaxy?

I would not mind being surround by a bunch of handsome men as the two heroines are in Earl and Fairy and Angelique. Each series is sent in a magical world with mystery and fantasy.
Ayakashi Kan is a haunted condominium where every resident is required to have a bodyguard. When socially inept Ririchiyo moves in, she's looking for peace and quiet. However, she quickly discovers that her bodyguard isn't just foxy; he might actually BE a fox. In fact, all of Ayakashi Kan's residents, and their agents, have both human and non-human ancestors. Welcome to the weirdest, wackiest mansion in town where no one is entirely human and mayhem is the order of the day in Inu X Boku SS!
Both anime are romances with a twist of the supernatural. The stories themselves revolve around different issues. In Inu x Boku the story is more about character development, while there is a sort of adventure plot driving Earl and Fairy. All in all they're both solid stories told in just a few episodes.
If you liked or , you'd like the other because...

user = find_by_email(email)
user && user.has_password?(submitted_password) ? user : nil

#return user if user.has_password?(submitted_password)
I've been looking at some example rails code and I'm a little confused by this. I understand that it's calling the authenticate method on the user object and then sending in an email and password values, but what is the :session symbol for? I look all through the code to find it, but I can't seem to figure it out. I don't see a method named session or anything.
Also, when the user actually uses the program, they only give a value for email and password, nothing for session. Not really sure what it's doing.
I'm asking this because it seems like some "rails general practice" type of thing. However I might be wrong and am not providing enough information. Please let me know if I have not.
Lastly, the Class << self, that is just there to define that the User object is being created in that class correct?
Thanks for the help in advance! (Also I know the moderators are going to edit this to fix my code block, if you guys could tell me what I'm doing wrong and how to fix it, I'd appreciate it!)

A woman who stabbed and killed a neighbour after a fight over a loaned air conditioner has been sentenced to six years in the penitentiary.
Karen Flynn, 44, of Hamilton sobbed in court on Tuesday as she read a statement before being sentenced in the death of 56-year-old Margaret Elizabeth Steer.
She was fatally stabbed on Jan. 4 of this year, just after a brawl between the women's boyfriends over an air conditioning unit Steer had loaned Flynn.
"I am consumed with overwhelming guilt, shame and self-hatred over the death of Ms. Steer caused by myself," Flynn said. "I live with the reality every day knowing that I took someone's life, and it's heartbreaking."
She pleaded guilty to manslaughter in June.
Ontario Justice Frederic Campling said Flynn deserved credit for pleading guilty and eliminating the need for a trial.
However, he noted, "it was after the fight was over and the air conditioner had been turned over that you got hold of a kitchen knife and fatally stabbed Ms. Steer for absolutely no good reason."
Court heard Steer and Flynn were neighbours in the building at 500 MacNab St. N. Steer had loaned Flynn the unit the previous summer and, on that day, Steer's boyfriend Barry Wheeler got what Campling called "a stupid idea" to get the air conditioner back, despite it being of no use to anyone in January.
Steer tried to talk him out of it but a fight broke out in the doorway of Flynn's unit, between an apparently drunken Wheeler and Flynn's boyfriend, Stephen Davis. At one point, Flynn grabbed a bat and hit Wheeler. Then she grabbed the knife and stabbed Steer once in the chest.
Paramedics were unable to save Steer.
Campling accepted Flynn's remorse but noted she has a previous criminal record for violence and use of weapons and was subject to two probation orders when she killed Steer.
Assistant Crown attorney Tim Power read out four victim impact statements from the family before the sentencing. They were from Steer's adopted brother John Steer and cousin Debbie Steer, who were both present in court, biological sister Darla Waite of Calgary and Steer's partner Wheeler — who started the fight and now lives in Newfoundland.
John Steer described his sister as a caring person who was "always ready to give of herself and to help others."
Her sister, Darla, said "I am lost, alone and very, very lonely for my sister. … I have lost many people but none as special as Margaret and, aside from my children, I have never loved anyone more. … I still wake up every day and want to call her."
But Waite also said she does not hold Flynn accountable, adding "I know that had Barry (Wheeler) not pushed my sister to come to your door, no one would be dealing with this right now."
Defence lawyer Larissa Fedak said Flynn stated her culpability when talking to police the night of the stabbing. Fedak also noted Wheeler went into Flynn's home "very aggressively."
Fedak said Flynn, a letter carrier from 1990 to 2002 until she was injured, doesn't forgive herself.
She has five years and 56 days to serve on her six-year sentence after getting credit for time spent in custody.
Campling also ordered Flynn to provide a blood DNA sample for a national crime database and prohibited her for life for possessing firearms or illegal weapons.

Why Portland will be the Next Tech Hub
The demand for software continues to rise. I've written before on the current workforce gap and how that gap will be filled through vocational programing schools, and I've written about how the progress of software and how it follows evolutionary paths. This article is a prediction on where the next epicenter of software innovation and talent will be - and that city is Portland. Here is why
Drupal 8: First Impressions for the Back-End Developer
Drupal 8 is in beta now, and recently I've had a chance to start working with it.

In this post, I will be looking at file system and database structure changes, Drush setup, and the new configuration entity type.
The Toads Have Leapt!
After three wonderful years at our previous office, Metal Toad has outgrown our lilypad.
What Being a Metal Toad Means to Me
The term amateur first appears in English usage in the late 1700s. The origins of the word indicate the original intention, the purest meaning, of this beautiful word. Amateur derives, via French, from the Latin amator - lover. An amateur, then, is someone motivated by love. Her focus and activities are directed by emotion, passion, and all the searing, all-consuming, laborious insanity that may accompany this prerogative. And I can think of no better motivation. If humans have deep…
How to thrive as a Junior Developer
I've been a junior developer at Metal Toad for about a year now. In that time, I've learned and grown more than I would have thought possible...and, yeah, that's as exciting, and as uncomfortable, as it sounds. I'm thriving in the junior dev program and I wanted to share some things I wish I'd known back when I first started.

Sound "Bytes" from the 2014 Digital PM Summit
With the dust settled following the 2014 Digital PM Summit in Austin, it's time to take a moment to refelct on another year of great keynote sessions, enjoyable conversations with like-minded PMs, well-attended afterparties, and a fun host city. The event grew in size and improved on the 2013 event in many ways.
The Challenge to Innovation
Recently inspired by Peter Thiel's excellent book Zero to One, I've been reflecting on the software industry as the preeminent place where we can expect to see radical innovation - and the blockers that exist in the industry that need to be addressed for us to maximize the pace of change.

Guys, guys! I am at Emerald City Comicon (Seattle, WA) starting today through Sunday!
This is my first-ever American con and I am absolutely thrilled (but also really stressed out)! It's be the biggest con I have attended so far. How intimidating is this floor plan?! (It's not even the whole thing)
As you can see, I'm sitting waaaaay in the back in the Artist Alley, so please take the time to drop by! I'll have Boumeries books (including my very last copies of volume 1), magnets, buttons, my few remaining charms, and I'll also be giving away some sweet bookmarks. On top of that, I'll be doing some $10 Boumeries-style marker commissions as well!
Come and say hi and witness my funny French accent in person. I don't bite!
See you there!!

NEWPORT, R.I., Sept. 19, 2013 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- In its second edition of "Safe Management of Wastes from Health-Care Activities," released in August, the World Health Organization (WHO) singled out contact with residual amounts of chemotherapy drugs as a significant risk requiring collection, containment and proper disposal in order to avoid exposure "through contact with body fluids and secretions [urine, feces and vomit] of patients undergoing chemotherapy."
Genotoxic/cytotoxic compounds, most commonly found in chemotherapy drugs, work by either mutating or killing cells. Unlike poisons, which can be safe when exposure is limited to tiny amounts, genotoxins/cytotoxins act more like "chemical germs," where even minimal exposure can cause a devastating chain reaction. The risk from contact to an otherwise healthy person is especially heightened when there is a significant amount of cell development happening — for example, among children and women of childbearing age.
According to the WHO report, any wastes produced by these patients within 48 hours of drug administration, and in some cases for up to a week, should be considered genotoxic.
Despite the otherwise well-regulated and well-managed handling of dangerous medical waste, chemotherapy patients treated with any of more than two dozen different chemotherapy drugs who return home after outpatient treatment can inadvertently but easily expose others to genotoxic contamination through seemingly benign occurrences such as urine splashed on a bathroom floor, clean up after an episode of vomiting, or the handling of bed sheets or a bedpan for a patient unable to use a bathroom.
The WHO report address what many in the field of chemotherapy-based treatment have long acknowledged as a dangerous "blind spot."
The human body can only destroy a portion of these genotoxic drugs. The r

Replydeny-li, February 11, 2012, 18:38Rookie
The first step is to open the glove box. Then you want to extract a GM-supplied special component that's in there, open it, then add the fluid. That component, by the way, is commonly known as "the owner's manual".

Tuesday, May 20th (All times Eastern)
Los Angeles Dodgers (23-22) at New York Mets (20-23), 7:10 p.m.
Probable Starting Pitchers: Los Angeles - Josh Beckett (1-1, 2.38) New York - Rafael Montero (0-1, 4.50)
(SportsNetwork.com) - The Los Angeles Dodgers will continue their nine-game road trip on the East Coast when they start a three-game series against the New York Mets Tuesday at Citi Field.
The Dodgers lost two of three games against the Arizona Diamondbacks to start the trek and dropped a 5-3 decision in Sunday's rubber match. One game after suffering a lopsided 18-7 setback in the desert, the Dodgers still couldn't solve the D'backs and starting pitcher Dan Haren was touched for five runs -- four earned -- and 10 hits in six innings.
Hanley Ramirez and Adrian Gonzalez both homered for Los Angeles, which is 14-9 as the visitor this season.
"In this ballpark you have to be able to put runs on the board and we just didn't do it," said Dodgers manager Don Mattingly.
Yasiel Puig, who was recently named NL Player of the Week, was 0-for-3.
Josh Beckett gets the call for the Dodgers Tuesday and earned his first win of the season last Tuesday in a 7-1 defeat of the Miami Marlins. Beckett gave up an unearned run over 6 1/3 innings and is 1-1 with a 2.38 ERA in seven starts.
Beckett has achieved success in his career against the Mets, going 6-2 with a 2.27 ERA in 14 starts.
New York is back in the friendly confines of Citi Field for the next nine games versus Los Angeles, Arizona and Pittsburgh, and lost two of three games in Washington over the weekend.
The Mets sustained a 6-3 setback in Sunday's rubber match with the Nationals, as Zack Wheeler was reached for five runs -- three earned -- in six innings.
Juan Centeno drove in two runs and Juan Lagares added an RBI in New York's fourth loss in five games.
"We know when you're facing this staff in particular to be able to bust the game open is few and far between," said New York third baseman David Wright, who had two hits and scored a run. "You're going to have to chip away, but it seemed like we couldn't go out and throw zeros on the board after we would score."
Mets pitching prospect Rafael Montero gets the call Tuesday and made his major league debut in last Wednesday's 4-0 loss to the Yankees. Montero was dealt the loss for allowing three runs and five hits, including two homers, in six innings.
The right-hander struck out three and walked two batters, and is trying to make a case for New York's rotation.
Los Angeles and New York are meeting for the first time since the Dodgers won five of six matchups a season ago.

Permitting rq'd for waterproofing
I'm having a waterproofer install an interior drainage system (actual product is by Basement Systems). They will be replacing an existing sump pump and installing a dehumidification system (sani-dry).
My question is do I (or the contractor)need to obtain a building permit for this work? I've spoken to a licensed architect, a comercial contractor a building inspector from a different town (all of which say one thing) and another building inspector from my town (who says something else).
I just want to do the right thing. If anyone has any information or documentation, please let me know. I'm in the state of NJ.
It totally depends on the rules in your town and your state. In my town a permit would not be required for it unless it exceeded $2k in cost or electrical was being done or new plumbing added. If the work is a "re-do", a permit isn't required at all (such as a new roof).
Does your town have a website? This information might be available on there.

Ingrid Bergman (and Tuscan Sun)
I just love Ingrid Bergman, a super red rose that loves to bloom. Here are a few photos of her,
And since Tuscan Sun is her neighbor, why not?
Your Ingrid Bergman looks perfect! Very healthy and as you said astonishingly floriferous for an HT! Is this rose fragrant?
The Taitian Sunset if exactly the kind of rose that I need to see today. Very cheerful! Here in SoCa we are having another cold and windy day with plenty of rain showers and honestly even though we need the rain (I know...) I am sick of this kind of weather!
Ingrid and Tuscan Sun are my favourite and most floriferous roses! Your photos are just wonderful. My TS blooms aren't as large, but it is just a 1 year old plant, maybe the size of the blooms will improve with time. However, I just love the way it blooms constantly and just love the colour of it.
Thanks for all your positive comments. I do want to add that it takes a good three years for some roses to come into their own, and Ingrid was a good example. Give her time to get that great root system and stand back.
Dh confirms just a hint of scent. Alas, sometimes you can't have everything. I need a rose that doesn't fade to pink or blue and Ingrid is it.
Does Tuscan Sun fade to a pink? I hate non-pink roses that fade to a splotchy faded pink. If it doesn't, then that's a rose I would like to get - that rose looks AMAZING!! That bud shot is out of this world, and I love it in the shot above that!!
Ingrid Bergman looks stunning!!!!! I especially like the shot of it with Tuscan Sun!! Lots, and lots of wonderfully shaped red roses. Now that's a rose!!!
Wow, stunning roses, Kathy! I love both! I really enjoy rich reds and sunset colors and the orange gradations!
Carol, you are just like me, in that I stay far away from rose blends that fade to a blotchy pink...Uneven mottling I'm not fond of like the Bellaroma that one finds in Kansas nurseries. Certain combinations of climates, soil, and rose genes make that blotchy mottling more pronounced...

Rapid Hiv Testing Information
Here's a taste of what TheBody.com has to offer on this topic:
Get the Facts
HIV Testing...may think that, since the test uses the mouth to test for HIV, that HIV can be transmitted to other people through saliva, spit and/or oral mucosa via kissing, sharing utensils, or sharing glasses.

Rapid tests are extremely accurate. However, since rapid tests have a small margin...
