Rose question: moving to Springfield, Virginia from Dallas
This is a cross-post from the Antique Roses forum.
Even though I'm excited to move to the DC area in a few weeks, one thing that has been tugging at me is leaving my roses behind. I thought I'd ask the Virginia residents (and maybe even someone who lives in or close to Springfield) which of the roses listed below (in containers right now) do well over there.
- Dame de Coeur
- Mevrouw Natalie Nypels
- Marie Pavie
- Perle dÂOr
- Souvenir de la Malmaison
- Coldwell Pink
- Francis Dubreuil
- Pink Gruss an Aachen
- Paul Neyron
- Climbing Iceberg
- Charles Darwin (David AustinÂs)
- Mrs. R. M. Finch
- Pink Rosette
- Charity (David AustinÂs)
- Baby Love, miniature
- Deep Velvet, miniature
- RainbowÂs End , miniature
To add insult to injury, the relo company just told me that it would not move the plants, so any container I take with me would travel across the country in a van with our three big dogs... I will rehome the others with family, friends or rose enthusiasts...
Thank you very much for your input.
Welcome to Virginia!
I live in the vicinity of Springfield.
Roses can be somewhat challenging to grow here due to long stretches of extreme humidity. I'd suggest leaving behind any rose easily susceptible to blackspot. Or bring cuttings of everything and next year ruthlessly weed out those which prove attractive to blackspot. Local blackspot is easily controlled with either a mild baking soda solution drench or with a milk spray, both of which require re-application after each rain. This spring we have had very little rain, and I have only had to make one application since the beginning of April. OTOH, I have been irrigating since mid-April.
Your other challenge is going to be a heavy clay soil. Unless you are fortunate and find a house previously owned by an enthusiastic gardener, please expect to do some extensive soil amending. Local roses do best in raised beds of at least a foot above ground level. Fairfax County runs a superb leaf recycling program, with free composted leaves available almost all year at Lorton and at West Ox Road (FairLakes) as well during late fall to summer at smaller locations. One small pickup area is near North Springfield, just off the road to Lake Accotink - if you can stand all those horrid speed bumps. The leaves make an excellent soil in one year, less if used in a lasagna-type bed.
When planning and preparing the beds, do make provision for drip irrigation. We are presently in drought condition (my garden has had 2" rain in the past four months), and drought is normal from the end of July through August, unless a hurricane or tropical storm passes through.
In moving the plants: prune back, water well, wrap pot to the base of trunk with plastic to retain moisture; cover with heavy paper or bubble wrap [leave an air space if bubblewrap is used] and then securely tie with twine; and it's okay to let them travel on their sides. Traveling in August is going to be very difficult, both because this is not their normal dormant period and because you are likely to subject them to extreme heat. Leaving them in a closed vehicle on a hot day can literally bake them; remember that an 80° day can raise the car's interior temperature to 120° in about 15 minutes, 135° in less than an hour. I know of no moving company that is willing to take the responsibility of shipping plants, however, you might wish to check into UPS or FedEx express service. The dogs would likely be better off *not* cuddling up to the roses.

Along with the appropriate folks discussing and dealing with the advertising parts of your company, you can easily subdue this challenge as well as subsequently arrive up along with favorable results.
That is your eyes, ears, as well as mouth rolled in to one. That is actually a pleasant spy to maintain you upgraded and also a lot more experienced.

Silver Linings Playbook

Read the book, much better than the movie which was a big disappointment.
I really liked this movie. I found it touching and surprising. Good performances all around.
Enjoyable & engaging film about real feel people that happen to have a diagnosed mental illness or addiction, and their families. It's nice to see portrayals of whole real people who struggle in popular media.
Just another 2 hour plus EXTREMIST commercial for the DEEPLY RACIST NFL,BUT I DIGRESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
stupid movie! I cannot stand Bradley Cooper. Lousy actor. Not Oscar material. I only was interested because of Robert Deniro . Could not get past even 5 minutes of this movie. Do yourself a favor and pass this one.
One of the funniest movies in years. Especially, Robert De Niro playing the Dad in the film. He and his superstitions are hilarious. Don't miss this one!
Good movie but not Oscar material or performances.
This movie just didn't do it for me. I thought the father, Robert DeNiro was crazier than his adult kid, Bradley Cooper. The acting was great, but I just didn't click with the story line. All I got out of it was Bradley Cooper was stalking & obsessed this ex-wife. The whole bi-polar thing with Bradley Cooper & Jennifer Lawrence just didn't work for me. I'm glad I didn't waste any money to see this one.
While the plot may be a bit predictable, Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence both deliver high-caliber performances. Robert DeNiro does a solid job as well.
It's rare for a movie to tackle mental health related issues in a realistic way and this movie manages to do a great job of showing the highs and lows that some face daily.
Predictable plot lines - definitely not Oscar material.

Arizona Cardinals
Report: Arizona Cardinals interested in outside linebacker Mike Neal
While the Arizona Cardinals' front office currently finds itself in Indianapolis taking inventory of the best young prospects the upcoming NFL Draft has to offer, the prospect of upgrading the roster through free agency is apparently not far from their mind.
According to Bob McGinn of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, the Cardinals are one of the teams rumored to be interested in outside linebacker Mike Neal.
Neal, a former second-round draft pick out of Purdue in 2010, has played his entire career with the Green Bay Packers. Last season, he set career highs in games played (16), solo tackles (36), total tackles (47), sacks (5) and interceptions (1).
The Cardinals entered the 2013 with plenty of depth at the outside linebacker position, but season-ending injuries to Sam Acho and Lorenzo Alexander forced Matt Shaughnessy and John Abraham to play a bit out of position. Arizona relied on Dontay Moch and Marcus Benard to fill the void, as well.
Neal wasn't without his own ailments last season, either. The 26-year-old suffered a knee injury that forced him out of the Packers' Wild Card round loss to the San Francisco 49ers.

Parunthumpara, near Peerumade, is a trekkers' delight that provides a bird's eye view of an endless stretch of green forest land and low-lying areas.
Parunthumpara is six km from Peerumade on National Highway 220 and is increasingly being visited by tourists who are on their way to Thekkady and others as well. If the sky is clear, visitors can get the view of the Sabarimala forests.
A narrow, but well-maintained, road from Kallar Junction leads to this hill station which has wide grasslands to spend some quiet moments. It is also a place for off-beat travellers and a large number of domestic tourists visit the place on holidays.
Though the place is yet to be included in the tourism map of the district, the place can stand up to any other hill stations. On a sunny day, it is just verdant beauty all around.
However, the steep hills also pose a threat to reckless visitors. There are a few deep slopes and one should be careful while visiting Parunthumpara.
The District Tourism Promotion Council plans to develop Parunthumpara as a hill station and as a stopover place for tourists who come from Kumarakom to Thekkady. There are two main roads through which the domestic and international tourists reach the district — from Nedumbassery to Munnar and from Kumarakom to Thekkady. Between these main tourism destinations, there are a few must-see places and Parunthumpara had been identified as one among them, said an official at the District Tourism Promotion Council. Some more basic facilities needed to be arranged there, he said.
A project had been submitted to the government for constructing a protective wall and for allotting a parking area so as to prevent the entry of vehicles on the grasslands, he said.
Sabarimala pilgrims visit the area to witness makarajyothi, making it a busy place during the pilgrimage season.

Great Magnets!
I Got You Babe! Save the Date Magnets We just got our magnets in the mail and we're super pleased with them. Everything is just as it looked when we customized it. The only complaint I have is that our picture isn't tack sharp. I suggest sharpening your image a little extra before sending it off. If you don't know how to do that, ask someone with a photo editing program like Photoshop.
I Got You Babe! Save the Date Magnets These save the dates were exactly what I wanted for our wedding. They were a great price and I was really able to customize. I love that I was order just one to see if I liked it before ordering all of them. What a great option!
I Got You Babe! Save the Date Magnets Loved the magnets and the silver lined envelopes!!
I Got You Babe! Save the Date Magnets I loved everything about my save the dates. Personalized colors, heavy duty magnet and easy to order. Fast shipping and a great price too. I just thought the envelopes looked a little cheap. But I would definitely recommend Magnet Street.
Great Save the Date!

Kahr makes some decent guns for affordable prices. And they're small for carrying. Personally I don't like how they feel but that's in my own hand and I know a lot of guys that love them. How do you feel about a .40 cal? A guy I know recently bought a compact .40S&W Kahr for roughly 350 brand new and he loves it.
Get a NEW S&W Sigma in .40 S&W caliber. Then get someone to do an trigger job on it.
I'm going with canebrake on this one. If your buying a gun for nothing but personal protection, you want it to go BANG EVERY time. Like cane mentioned, if you can find a 9mm or 45 for under $400, there is something wrong with it and pawning it off was easier or cheaper than having it fixed. Although it isn't impossible, it is very rare to find someones "gingerly used" old protection buddy that still goes BANG EVERY time. If a gun works perfect, the owner is going to keep it.
Most used guns that are in my dealers display case, IMO, are usually someone buying on impulse and trading it in after 100 rounds because they don't like the feel of it. The gun shops are going to resell it as "Like New" and charge close to MSRP. In that case, your better off buying brand new and getting a lifetime warranty.
Every gun I have bought, except for one which was handed down to me, was bought brand new and I couldn't be happier. I like knowing things like, it has been cleaned perfect every time, how many times it has been dropped, and what ammo and how much has been through it.
Sorry to change the subject but on a side story, my first gun purchase was a M&P 40. Although its not THE BEST (and tupperware, shut up cane), its still my first and I love it to death. I have put 3000+ rounds through it and have taken very good care of it. There isn't one scratch, nick, ding, or blemish on the exterior and still looks like its from the factory. My neighbor came over one day, I asked him if he ever wanted to go shooting, he asked if he could see what I have for guns, I showed him my M&P, he fumbled it (just holding onto it) did a "one, two, three" attempt to catch it (I had my eyes closed at this point) and he dropped it on my semi-new wood floor..... I'm not going shooting with him. Ever.
ANYWAYS, look at the guns cane suggested. They are very good deals and although I have never personally shot a XD (another gun thats illegal in MA) they are a quality product and will go BANG EVERY time. Did I stress the BANG EVERY time enough?
If you're looking for a low cost, well made no frills .45 1911 go with Rock Island Armory. They also have customer service as good as any large manufacturer and better than most. Bought one for my son several years ago and he's put all makes of ammo down range with never a hiccup. About $350.00 + -. But remember, a 1911 is a big gun for daily carry.
... ed ...
MAINE - The Way Life Should Be ...
A carry gun should be one you trust to go bang EVERY time. Revolvers do this better than semis, as long as it is a well made and kept pistol. For me, a carry pistol should also be light enough to carry comfortably. It is hard to find a revolver in larger calibers that are not heavy and bulky in that price range. I've done lots of searching, and I have found Budsgunshop to have good prices on good firearms. For a used gun, usually police trade-ins are well kept and has not had a high number of rounds through it. Cane has good advice there and links for you. (See Cane can be serious and informative when he wants to be.)
Good luck, and let us know what you get.
From C3Shooter:
Skullcrusher, you are evil, sick, demented, twisted- and my hero!
I agree with skullcrusher that a revolver - .38 Spl. - would be an excellent choice. A small S&W J-frame or a Charter Arms or Ruger can all be found in your price range.
I do not agree that used guns are someone's problem child. I own quite a few guns. My carry gun, my hunting rifle and my target pistols were all purchased used. The Gold Cup I bought used in 1981 has given me 25+ years of faithful service. My used Hi Standard .22 Trophy is the most reliable automatic I've ever owned.
I'm sure others will agree. Yes, there are lemons out there, but many used guns (as dnthmn2004 mentioned) still have years of good service ahead of them.

Went to Divi Tamarijn for 5 days, Dec 20-Dec 25, 2012 with my boyfriend. It was nice to be there right before Christmas, right before the big rush, and cheaper, too. The rate for 2 people was $480 per night which includes a room with a balcony right on the beach and overlooking the beach (if you open the patio door you can sleep while hearing the waves). It also includes all meals, alcoholic drinks, entertainment, non-motorized water sports and towel service. There is no waiter service on the beach but it doesn't matter, everything is just steps away.
The beach is serene and after visiting the strip of hotels where the high rises were, we realized that this was the best beach. It is about a mile long and very relaxed, spacious, with palm trees and a great view. We stayed on the Tamarijn side but you can go from and to the Divi with your wrist band and you can be at their beach, pool, restaurants, etc..
The plus sides:
- Beautiful, turquoise water, white sand that's not hot, huts on the beach for shade
- Good restaurants
- unlimited cocktails
- oceanfront quiet rooms with cable, very comfortable
- non-motorized water sports (wind surfing, kayaking)
- gym overlooking the beach
- relaxed setting, a true vacation
- beautiful island
- you get a lot for your money
- 7 different bars
- the pools aren't too terrific, but we didn't go there for the pools.
- if it's too windy, they cancel windsurfing for the day, so i recommend doing it the very first day to get it over with.
- a lot of kids (but honestly, there is enough room on the beach and at the resort
- not much variety in the breakfast and lunch buffets form day to day. While they are big buffets, they get old by the 3rd or 4th day since it's the same selection. And of course there is the danger of eating too much just because you paid for it already
I would highly recommend this all-inclusive resort as a relaxing, stress-free vacation. Watch for deals and it's definitely worth $250 per night per person, or less. If it's any more, then I'd do some comparison with other deals in Aruba or the Caribbean to be sure you're getting the most for your money.

West Midlands Police have launched an investigation after a fire destroyed a community centre in Birmingham.
Emergency services were called to the blaze yesterday morning at the Ulfah Arts Centre in Highgate Square.

Detective Chief Inspector Richard Agar, from Birmingham East Police, said:
"The motive for the blaze is unknown, however we are aware of a malicious letter sent to the centre earlier this month."
"We are investigating this as a hate crime and, although apparently unconnected, we will explore any links between the two incidents."
"We have increased patrols in the local area and I would like to reassure the community that we are doing all we can to find those responsible."

Sam Witwer has revealed how the chemistry between himself and his Being Human co stars, Sam Huntington and Meaghan Rath was instant, as they connected in their very first audition together. Sam added that, when it came to shooting the earlier episodes of the first season, they were told to tone down their on screen chemistry.
Witwer explained, "When me and Sammy and Meaghan sat in a room together, it was immediately apparent that this was the group that was going to get cast. There was just something about everyone's energy, where we understood exactly where our performances need to sit, opposed to each other. Sammy knew when to come in and say something off of my timing, which I knew because Meaghan gave me an opening to say something else. It was just this weird voodoo where we immediately not only knew how to work with each other, but liked each other a lot, just from the get-go, and really enjoyed each other's performances immediately."
He added, "Especially in the earlier episodes, we were taken aside by producers and directors and told, 'Listen, you have to tone down the chemistry. You guys don't know each other well enough yet. The chemistry you're bringing now will be great toward the end of the season, but not now. The rhythms can't be this established. There needs to be little stilted moments. It can't be this smooth yet.' It's funny because you usually get the opposite note. The director usually comes up and says, 'Okay, remember, you really like each other.' But, they told us, 'You guys like each other too much. You need to be more wary. You don't know each other that well.' We had to work on that."
Sam continued, "But, after they live with each other for awhile, we had permission to finally bring more of Sam Witwer, Sam Huntington and Meaghan Rath to those characters, so Aidan gets progressively funnier and Josh is hilarious. The cool thing about the funny stuff that I have to do is that the show isn't reliant on it. Sam Huntington is really the comedic genius of us three, and so is Meaghan Rath. Those two crack me up so much. I'm the dramatic anchor of the trio. Those guys really impress me with the things that they can do that I can't. It's really just so much fun, and we like each other so much."
He concluded, "It's like having an adopted brother and sister, and it happened immediately. It takes me awhile to get to know someone and get comfortable with them, so to be comfortable with them so fast was a real treat." Sam Witwer, Sam Huntington and Meaghan Rath can be seen reprising their roles, when Being Human season two premieres on January 16, 2012.

NBC's American Odyssey attempts to woo viewers who have given up on the networks for cable but it misses its mark.
The video of 2014's memorable "Remembering Roger" panel at Ebertfest.
Hard on the heels of "The Sum of All Fears," here's Jerry Bruckheimer's "Bad Company," another movie about an American city threatened by the explosion of a stolen nuclear device. This one is an action comedy. There may come a day when the smiles fade. To be sure, the movie was made before 9/11 (and its original autumn 2001 release was delayed for obvious reasons), but even before 9/11 it was clear that nuclear terrorism was a real possibility. While "The Sum of all Fears" deals in a quasi-serious way with the subject (up until the astonishingly inappropriate ending), "Bad Company" is more light-hearted. Ho, ho.
The nuclear device is really only the McGuffin. It could be anything, as long as bad guys want it and good guys fight to keep them from it. The movie's a collision between three durable genres: Misfit Partners, Fish Out of Water and Mistaken Identity. After an opening scene in which the Chris Rock character is killed, we learn that he had a twin brother named Jake Hayes; the babies were separated at birth and never knew about each other. The first was adopted by a rich family, went to Ivy League schools, and joined the CIA. Jake is a ticket scalper and chess hustler who's in love with a nursing student (Kerry Washington).
One problem with the movie, directed by Joel Schumacher, is that it jams too many prefabricated story elements into the running time. Consider the training sequence, in which Rock has nine days to perfect the mannerisms and absorb the knowledge of his dead brother. Odd that most of the coaching sessions have him learning to recognize fine vintages of wine and evaluate ancient cognacs; is he going to be dining with the terrorists? Meanwhile, he's apparently expected to learn to speak Czech from a dictionary tossed onto his bunk.
His minder at the CIA is Gaylord Oakes (Anthony Hopkins), a spookily calm veteran operative whose plan is to substitute this twin for the other in a sting operation designed to buy a stolen nuclear device. When another would-be buyer enters the picture, the film descends into a series of chase scenes, which are well enough done, but too many and too long.
Hopkins plays his character right down the middle, hard-edged and serious. Rock has some effective scenes played straight, but at other times he goes into a nonstop comic monologue that is funny, yes, but unlikely; when he's being shot at, how can he think of all those one-liners? The movie's strategy is to make every sequence stand on its own, with no thought to the overall tone of the film, so that we go from the deadly serious to something approaching parody.
Of the plot I can say nothing, except that it exists entirely at the whim of the stunts, special effects, chases and action. The two competing teams of would-be evil bomb buyers function entirely to supply an endless number of guys who fire machineguns a lot but hardly ever hit anything. The motive for blowing up New York is scarcely discussed. And could I believe my eyes? Here in 2002--another Red Digital Readout counting down to zero, just when I thought that was one cliche that had finally outlived its viability.
As for the girls, well, Kerry Washington is sweet and believable as Rock's girlfriend, but a Bruckheimer movie is not the place to look for meaningful female performances. No doubt there was a nice payday, but meanwhile Washington's fine performance in "Lift," the shoplifting film from Sundance 2001, goes unreleased. Even more thankless is the role by Garcelle Beauvais-Nilon as a CNN correspondent who was the girlfriend of the first twin, and spots this one because he kisses differently. She disappears entirely from the film after an ironically appropriate slide down a laundry chute. (By the way: During the shoot-out in that hotel, how come not a single guest or employee is ever seen?) I won't tell you I didn't enjoy parts of "Bad Company," because I did. But the enjoyment came at moments well-separated by autopilot action scenes and stunt sequences that outlived their interest. As for the theme of a nuclear device that might destroy New York, I have a feeling that after this generation of pre-9/11 movies plays out, we won't be seeing it much anymore.
