How cold is too cold?
I planted Turnips this year for the first time. I waited a month too late to plant according to my chart. I was wondering what is the lowest temperature that turnips can stand. Saturday night it is expected to be in the high 20's here where I live in Georgia. Will I need to cover them up or will they handle the cold just fine. This is my first year will a fall garden so I am still learning.
Forget about "frost", we have been seeing temperature drop
to 15F. We have had freezing nights for the last week or so and there seems to be no end at sight. Throwingblanket is not going to help.
To me this year so far(January i.e.) has been the coldest persistantly for so long around here. Amazingly it has been as cold as the Northeast states even colder here.
This is a joke, I don't believe in global warming. hehe.
Lets count our causualties now. Do you have any?
I have a few; My chinese/korean big radishes are gone.
Chinese cabbages/nappa have fallen flat. Will they rise up when it gets a bit warmer? we shall see.
kohlrabies, cabbages seem to be alive and fighting. So are the lettuce and arugulas. Garlics and parsley are well and alive, so are thyme and sage, onions, leeks.
We will do another count of the causualties in the spring.
Will my stevias, lemon grass and horse radishes come back?
I had covered them with fall leaves before this cold.
This year was a good testing laboratory for cold/freez hardiness in mid-north GA.
Maybe there will some benefits with all this cold and it may have killed some bad insects.
Unbelievable, this cold in our neck of the woods!
My broccoli & cabbage are still hanging in there; I didn't cover anything.
What's REALLY unbelievable...my wave petunias that I started from seed last year & that thrived all summer and fall...are STILL alive! And actually look very healthy & green. Every day I go to look at them, thinking the previous night's 20 deg. temps would have done them in...and they're still going.
cyrus, has Stevia or lemon grass ever come back for you? I've seen it come back in the veggie garden at Callaway, but not in the city for some reason...I took mine inside where it's 58 and it's thriving and multiplying nicely. I don't grow stevia but it used to die in pots at the nursery and not come back...
Please tell me more about growing nappa cabbage? I would like to grow it but I've heard it gets super buggy here. Have you grown it before?
I'm hoping my dakon have survived. It is under a tent, although the tent, it's not heated or anything. I'm hoping that keeping moist and cold air off of it will help. I haven't looked at the kales today, but yesterday they seemed alright. Frankly it's hard to tell what is just frozen solid and upright, and what is toast...
So far I can see perennial veggies are fine, it looks like most of the endives are fine. The gardenias are not very pleased, and the pittosporum have frost burn (easy to cut off...)
Stevia came back from the roots at Truly Living Well last year; it was late to show up and I was surprised to see it, didn't know at first what it was but when I tasted one of the tiny leaves there was no mistaking it. The roots look similar to bears breeches roots, long white ropy things all coming from a central point at the ground.
I can't imagine that lemon grass would make it through even our ordinary winter cold weather; we brought ours indoors in the fall.
Horseradish will live through any extreme cold; I think it may be native to Russia. Hope you've already harvested some roots, Cyrus, but if not, you should do so when the weather warms up enough to soften the ground. They say that horseradish gets hotter in flavor after a couple of frosts; it should be burning hot after this cold spell!
I decided to cover my Turnips with newspaper extra thick, then put a thick layer of hay on top of that. It still didn't prevent them from getting burned. But they MADE IT!! I was extremely surprised to find them showing signs of life. I bet it has stunted their growth for a while. Maybe it is best just to start a new crop as it is about time to make spring plantings isn't it?
I know one thing, I have had enough of this extreme freezing temperatures. I'll bet that Florida has too.
How'd y'all fair out?
GGG, this was my first season with both Stevia and Lemon grass. I have heavily covered them with oak leaves. I am crossing my fingers. With Lemon grass, it is not a big deal. I can get some from HMART and root them. Very easy.
About napa, I have had lots of snails and did not do anything about it. they did ok. Again this was my first year. I have some real big ones that have fallen flat but the smaller ones look OK. I think the roots and core are alive.
They were doing fine when it was in 20s-F. But 14-15F, haha.
But lettuce and Aurugulas were big surprise, no casualties there.
I hope the worst is over. HOPE!

why isn't my spicebush caterpillar becoming a chrysalis?
I brought in a spicebush caterpillar I found on a spicebush leaf that had fallen from the tree. It is November, and in my area, most spicebushes have lost all leaves and we have had a few frosts. I figured it would turn into a chrysalis in a couple days, based on the time of season. I have kept it outside with natural temp. and light, and have misted it every so often. It has been at least 4 days, and no change. Anyone have any advice? I have another chrysalis I am overwintering(outside so it won't change pre-season), so I'd like to keep this one too. Also, our spicebush trees have had a good bunch of caterpillars, but never any hanging chrysalis. Are the caterpillars getting eaten, or do they sometimes form a chrysalis that stays on the ground with the other fallen leaves?
Normally, they leave the spicebush to make their pupae (chrysalis).
If you are getting 30/40 degree nights and 50/60 degree days that is another reason the caterpillar isn't pupating--it's too cold.
They can also eat Sweet Bay. I think it still has its leaves. I'd find some Sweet Bay and bring the caterpillar inside so it can finish its pupation. As soon as it pupates and hardens, I'd take it back outside.
Another possible reason for it not to pupate is it could have a parasite or disease.

I am using the StreamWriter object to write to either a file that is created by the constructor or already exists. If the file exists then it appends data. If not, then it should create a file and then also append data. The problem is that when the file needs to be created, the StreamWriter constructor creates the file but does not write any data to the file.
bool fileExists = File.Exists(filePath);
using (StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(filePath, true))
if (!fileExists)
EDIT: Thanks for the answers. The using block takes care of closing the writer. As for other people saying it works for them, is there any information I can give you to further diagnose the problem? The file is localed across a network. Could that be a potential problem. Intermittently I receive the errors, "Could not find a part of the path ..." and "The specified network name is no longer available."

The recent economic downturn has intensified the need for cooperation among carriers in the container shipping industry. Indeed, carriers join inter-firm networks for several reasons such as achieving economies of scale, scope, and the search for new markets. In this paper we apply network analysis and construct the Cooperative Container Network in order to study how shipping companies integrate and coordinate their activities and to investigate the topology and hierarchical structure of inter-carrier relationships. Our data set is comprised of 65 carriers that provide 603 container services. The results indicate that the Cooperative Container Network (CCN) belongs to the family of small world networks. This finding suggests that the most cooperative companies are small-to-medium-size carriers that engage in commercial agreements in order to reduce costs and, when in partnership with larger carriers, these cooperative companies are able to compete, especially against the largest carriers. However shipping companies with high capacity engage in cooperation with other carriers by merely looking for local partners in order to increase their local and specialized market penetration.

Customer Raves & Reviews
Perfect Modern Boho Design!
Woodland Charms Rectangle Invitations This was the perfect mix of modern and bohemian. I loved the way the colors turned out! This company was recommended by a friend, and I'm so thankful! Speedy delivery too!
simple and to the point.
live.laugh.love Rectangle Invitations Loved this invitation. It wasn't fussy or frilly and didn't beat around the bush!
Amazing Wedding Cermony Programs!!
Seasonal Snowflake Half-fold Programs I decided to order programs for the ceremony last minute. I luckily found this website, picked a design that was perfect for my winter / snowflake themed wedding, filled in the template and had my programs in less than a week. They were beautiful and elegant. I received so many compliments.
Perfect Invite
Patterned Billy Ball Foldover Pockets The patterned billy ball foldover pocket invitation turned out better then i could ever have imagined! I have gotten so many compliments on them! Magnet street does a wonderful job!
Bliss, is right! ... part two
Botanical Bliss Pocket Invitations Loved our Botanical Bliss save the date magnets, and love our pocket invitations just as much, if not MORE! Happy with our paper selection of Luxe Pearl, for how it adds that extra something; silver is one of our accent colors, and so the pearly sheen helps to dress and fancy up the invitation. I have a few critiques though, despite my love for this product: 1) I'm not a big fan of the Luxe Pearl envelope style, since (and MagnetStreet does include a disclaimer about this) it's hard to get stamps, labels, etc. to really stick well to it, 2) there's no slit in the front to insert the top into the bottom so that it closes flat, and 3) the RSVP Postcard and Enclosure Card are the same size, so there isn't one larger to make it so they stagger inside the pocket.

CONTEXTMENUITEM2 structure
The CONTEXTMENUITEM2 structure is introduced in MMC 2.0.
The CONTEXTMENUITEM2 structure is passed to the IContextMenuCallback2::AddItem method or the IContextMenuProvider::AddItem method (inherited from IContextMenuCallback) to define a new menu item, submenu, or insertion point. The context menu is built from the root down, with each new item going to the end of the submenu or insertion point where the new item is inserted. The CONTEXTMENUITEM2 structure supersedes the CONTEXTMENUITEM structure (other than the strLanguageIndependentName member, all of the members of CONTEXTMENUITEM2 are in CONTEXTMENUITEM).
typedef struct _CONTEXTMENUITEM2 { LPWSTR strName; LPWSTR strStatusBarText; LONG lCommandID; LONG lInsertionPointID; LONG fFlags; LONG fSpecialFlags; LPWSTR strLanguageIndependentName; } CONTEXTMENUITEM2, *LPCONTEXTMENUITEM2;
- strName
A pointer to a null-terminated string that contains the name of the menu item or of the submenu. This member cannot be NULL except for a separator or insertion point.
- strStatusBarText
A pointer to a null-terminated string that contains the text that is displayed on the status bar when this item is highlighted. This member can be NULL.
- lCommandID
A value that specifies the command identifier for menu items. If the menu item is added by IExtendContextMenu::AddMenuItems and then selected, lCommandID is the command ID parameter that is passed back to IExtendContextMenu::Command. If this menu item is added by the IContextMenuProvider interface and then selected, this is the command ID that is passed back to pISelected by IContextMenuProvider::ShowContextMenu. If this is an insertion point (CCM_SPECIAL_INSERTION_POINT is set in fSpecialFlags) or a submenu (MF_POPUP is set in fFlags), use lCommandID in subsequent calls as lInsertionPointID (for more information, see the following table). Carefully read the following discussion because specific bits in the new insertion point ID must be on and others must be off.
The following bits in the command ID require special handling for items that are not insertion points or submenus.
Value Meaning
- CCM_COMMANDID_MASK_RESERVED = 0xFFFF0000
Items other than insertion points and submenus cannot be added when these bits are set.
The following bits in the insertion point ID require special handling for items that are insertion points (fSpecialFlags and CCM_SPECIAL_INSERTION_POINT) or submenus (fFlags and MF_POPUP).
Value Meaning
- CCM_INSERTIONPOINTID_MASK_SPECIAL = 0xFFFF0000
Special behavior. Snap-ins can use the other bits as required.
- CCM_INSERTIONPOINTID_MASK_SHARED = 0x80000000
These insertion points and submenus are shared between the creator of the context menu, the primary extension, and the third-party extension. Items added to a shared insertion point or submenu are available to the creator of the context menu, the primary extension, and the third-party extension.
If this bit is not set, the IContextMenuProvider interface and each extension can use the same ID. Each ID refers to a different insertion point or submenu.
Only the context menu creator and the primary snap-in can create shared insertion points or submenus.
- CCM_INSERTIONPOINTID_MASK_CREATE_PRIMARY = 0x40000000
This bit must be set for shared insertion points and submenus created by the primary snap-in and not set for those created by the context menu creator. This prevents ID conflicts between the two sources of shared insertion points and submenus.
- CCM_INSERTIONPOINTID_MASK_ADD_PRIMARY = 0x20000000
Allows the primary snap-in to add items to a shared insertion point or submenu.
- CCM_INSERTIONPOINTID_MASK_ADD_3RDPARTY = 0x10000000
Allows extension snap-ins to add items to a shared insertion point or submenu.
- CCM_INSERTIONPOINTID_MASK_RESERVED = 0x0FFF0000
Insertion points or submenus cannot be added with this value set.
- lInsertionPointID
A value that specifies where in the context menu the new item should be added. Snap-ins can only add items to insertion points that are created by the menu creator or the primary snap-in. The following are the insertion points created by MMC in the default context menus for items in the scope pane and list view result pane:
Value Meaning
- 0 (zero)
An lInsertionPointID of 0 refers to the root menu for this context menu. The value 0 can be used interchangeably with CCM_INSERTIONPOINTID_ROOT_MENU. Be aware that only IContextMenuProvider is permitted to add items directly to the root menu. Extensions can only add items to insertion points and submenus added to the root menu by IContextMenuProvider or by MMC.
- CCM_INSERTIONPOINTID_PRIMARY_TOP = 0xA0000000
The primary snap-in can use this insertion point to add items to the top of the main context menu.
- CCM_INSERTIONPOINTID_PRIMARY_NEW = 0xA0000001
The primary snap-in can use this insertion point to add items to the top of the New submenu. The New submenu is available in context menus of the scope and result panes.
- CCM_INSERTIONPOINTID_PRIMARY_TASK = 0xA0000002
The primary snap-in can use this insertion point to add items to the top of the All Tasks submenu. The All Tasks submenu is available in context menus of the scope and result panes.
- CCM_INSERTIONPOINTID_PRIMARY_VIEW = 0xA0000003
The primary snap-in can use this insertion point to add items to the View menu. If the user clicks the View drop-down menu on the toolbar, this insertion point will be present, but the New and All Tasks insertion points will not appear.
- CCM_INSERTIONPOINTID_3RDPARTY_NEW = 0x90000001
Extension snap-ins can use this insertion point to add items to the bottom of the New submenu. The New submenu is only present for context menus in the scope pane and not for context menus in the result pane.
- CCM_INSERTIONPOINTID_3RDPARTY_TASK = 0x90000002
Extension snap-ins can use this insertion point to add items to the bottom of the All Tasks submenu.
- CCM_INSERTIONPOINTID_ROOT_MENU = 0x80000000
IContextMenuProvider can use this insertion point to add items to the root menu.
Neither primary extensions nor third-party extensions can add items to the root menu except through insertion points added by IContextMenuProvider.
- fFlags
A value that specifies one or more of the following style flags:
Flag Meaning
The created item is a submenu within the context menu. Menu items, insertion points, and other submenus can be added to the created submenu; the new menu item, submenu, or insertion point should use the created submenu's lCommandID member as the lInsertionPointID member value.
These flags are not supported; IContextMenuCallback2::AddItem will return E_INVALIDARG.
Draws a horizontal seperator line.
Only IContextMenuProvider can add menu items with MF_SEPARATOR set.
The following flags function in the same way as they do in the Windows API.
The following groups of flags cannot be used together:
- MF_DISABLED, MF_ENABLED, and MF_GRAYED
- MF_MENUBARBREAK and MF_MENUBREAK
- MF_CHECKED and MF_UNCHECKED
- fSpecialFlags
A value that specifies one or more of the following flags:
Flag Meaning
- CCM_SPECIAL_SEPARATOR = 0x0001
Ignore all other parameters except lInsertionPointID. Add a separator to the end of the menu or at the specified insertion point. Separators placed at the top or bottom of a menu or submenu will not be displayed. Separators with no menu items between them will be collapsed into a single separator.
Only IContextMenuProvider can add separators, special or otherwise.
- CCM_SPECIAL_SUBMENU = 0x0002
If this submenu is empty, it appears dimmed; this is only valid for MF_POPUP items.
- CCM_SPECIAL_DEFAULT_ITEM = 0x0004
This is the default menu item. If more than one menu item specifies this flag, the last item in each submenu takes precedence.
- CCM_SPECIAL_INSERTION_POINT = 0x0008
Ignore all other parameters except lCommandID and lInsertionPointID. This flag creates a new insertion point at the end of the insertion point or submenu identified by lInsertionPointID. New menu items, submenus, or insertion points can be added to the created insertion point; the new menu item, submenu, or insertion point should use the created insertion point's lCommandID member as the lInsertionPointID member value.
- CCM_SPECIAL_TESTONLY = 0x0010
Validate the item parameters, but do not add the menu item. Returns a result code that indicates whether an Add operation would have been successful.
- strLanguageIndependentName
The language-independent name of the menu item. Retrieve this value in MMC 2.0 Automation Object Model applications by getting the MenuItem.LanguageIndependentName property. The strLanguageIndependentName member cannot be NULL or an empty string unless a separator or insertion point is added; otherwise, the IContextMenuCallback::AddItem method will fail with E_INVALIDARG as the return value.

This chocolate cake is totally to die for but it does seem to be super addictive. Way more than anything else I've ever made. It's richer and way more delicious than any conventional chocolate cake I ever made or tasted. Trust me I've tried a lot of chocolate cake in my life.
Crust – to be honest the last few times I've made it I've just stuck in any nuts that happen to be handy
2 cups of pecans
½ cup of pinhead oatmeal
12 dates pitted
½ cup Brazil nuts
½ cup cashew nuts
¼ cup of coconut oil
Grind ingredients in a food processor. You may need to add a small amount of water to the crust mixture. Press the crust into either an 8 inch spring form pan or pan of your choice.
2 cup of agave
2 cup of coconut oil
2 vanilla beans
½ teaspoon of salt
4 cups of raw cacao
In a high speed blender blend all the ingredients, blend until creamy smooth.
Transfer the mixture to the pan. Allow to chill in the fridge until firm – normally takes about two hours.
Store leftovers in the freezer - will keep for a good few months frozen
OK for a slightly less extreme version of this cake add I cup of hemp seeds to the crust, for the filling reduce everything by ¾ and add 2 cups of cashews soaked for 3 hours - still taste totally divine

One-step-at-a-time approach clinches Lakers Section 8-2A championship
One hole at a time.
Although it was a philosophy which took some patience to follow through on, it worked splendidly for the Detroit Lakes girls' golf team, which played each hole with those five words in mind all season long.
In the end, it led all the way up to a Class 2A state berth.
The Lakers shot near a season-low 335 to win the Section 8-2A meet at Longbow Golf Course in Walker Tuesday and qualify as a team for the Class 2A state meet, June 16-17.

Veteran Umaga handed Chiefs start
ESPNscrum Staff
February 17, 2011
The Chiefs' Tana Umaga has beat out tough competition to earn his place © Getty Images
Former All Black skipper Tana Umaga is set to become Super Rugby's oldest ever player on Saturday after the 37-year-old was named in the Chiefs side to face the Brumbies.
In a fitting feature of the first round of the inaugural expanded Super Rugby season, a player who was present in the original edition of the Super 12 tournament will take his place in the Chiefs midfield.
Umaga, who last played in the competition four years ago, has been handed the No.12 jersey for the opening-round fixture in Canberra, with Dwayne Sweeney outside him in the centres.
Coach Ian Foster said the decision on the midfield combination had taken a bit of thought, with Sweeney, Jackson Willison and Save Tokula all having gone well in the pre-season matches.
"But Tana has been out of Super Rugby for a while and I think the best way to get true value out of him in this campaign is to give him that early taste of it," he said. "He's performed well. He's earned the right and I know he's looking forward to it."
Umaga, whose Test career brought him 74 caps, 21 as skipper, was part of the very first match of the-then Super 12 in 1996, between the Hurricanes and the Blues. He went on to turn out 122 times for the Hurricanes until 2007. He came back from France last year to be player/assistant coach of Counties-Manukau.
Foster said it was a significant adjustment for someone to return to Super Rugby after four years away, but he was confident Umaga would make it.
"Mentally he's strong, he's very experienced and he's been able to figure that out himself," Foster said. "That's what the preseason is about, to try to give guys a taste as early as we can. He'll be fine."
The Chiefs' starting lineup also features the inclusion of All Black winger Sitiveni Sivivatu, who spent most of last year on the sidelines recovering from shoulder and knee issues. While Sivivatu's problem knee was iced up after he came off against the Blues last Friday night, Foster said the move was precautionary.
"We're delighted he's back and he can't wait to get on the park," he said. "He's a very enthusiastic youngster."
Sivivatu will line up against another Fiji-born flyer in 22-year-old former Waikato representative Henry Speight, who will make his Super Rugby debut in the Brumbies' run-on side.
Apart from Umaga, others who will don the Chiefs' jersey for the first time are No.8 Fritz Lee, hooker Dan Perrin, lock Hayden Triggs and loose-forward Scott Waldrom, with Lee making his debut at this level. Perrin, Triggs and Waldrom, recruited from the Crusaders, Highlanders and Hurricanes respectively, will be on the bench.
Hooker Hika Elliot (hamstring), first five-eighth Mike Delany (facial cut) and Isaac Ross (chest) were not considered for selection because of niggles. All three are considered likely to be available for the away match against the Highlanders next week.
Foster said he was happy with where his squad were at on the eve of a new campaign. He said the players were aware they had to lift their intensity as they headed into the competition proper.
"We're more than comfortable," he said. "Like everyone, we're nervously excited about starting."

recessed socket clip HELP!
jhough1925August 11, 2012
If you can see from the picture, the socket on my recessed light has a clip that screws into the top of the socket. On one of my outside fixtures, this clip has rusted apart. The clip serves two functions. The extensions hold the baffle to the socket and the part of the clip that is flush to the top of the socket has holes in either end that the wire "thingy" that lets you push the baffle up, clips into. I just need this dual clip and can't find one online. Can anyone help. I think they are Progress lights.

Motoi Fuyukawa is providing the art and story for the adaptation of Kazuma Kamachi's spin-off light novel series. The manga began serialization in ASCII Media Works' Monthly Comic Dengeki Daioh magazine in 2007. The manga's 10th volume was released in July.
Seven Seas Entertainment licensed the series for North America in 2010 and shipped the manga's ninth volume in April.
