Why Has Every Single Leaf Fallen Off My Climbing Roses?
I have 2 Zepherine Drouhin and 2 Climbing American Beauty roses planted on the sunny side of my yard. This is the 3rd summer I've had them. They all bloomed beautifully this year then, somewhere around the end of May, every single leaf fell off all four roses.
I did not add any fertilzer nor did I do anything different this year than I normally do. I did NOT spray even once this year for blackspot or any other disease and we did have a very hot, wet, steamy spring.
Could blackspot or some other disease have caused the leaf drop and, if so, will the leaves come back?
I have been busy this year with a lot of personal things so I did not happen to notice what kind of shape the leaves were in before they dropped (insect damage, yellowing or blackspot)so I'm clueless as to what could have happened and how serious this problem might be.
Please help if you can :-(
just_me, it's hard to say what might have happened without some more information or pictures.
Are they re-leafing now? If so, don't worry about it. If not, well, wait awhile and then repost with more information about the roses and maybe some pictures.
Good luck!
I'll second the Blackspot. Zephy is very prone to it and drops her leaves faster than a speeding bullet. I moved mine because I had her on my front arbor and she was so unsightly most of the time. She is now in a place where she gets only afternoon sun and she seems to be doing much better. Go figure.
I have a climbing Rainbow's End that does that in the Spring when it gets blackspot - this Spring it dropped all of its leaves when it was in full bloom - the flowers were not affected - it looked hilarious, with all of those lovely blossoms on a naked plant. After the blooms faded, I cut them all off, and now it has leafed out again, and looks fine. It is the only rose I have that does this.
I vote for BS as well. I have Climbing American Beauty. For the first few year it got BS real bad and I had to spray it. Now that I have had it for about 7 yrs, I noticed especially this year even without regular spraying it is finally staying pretty clean. I am trying to go no-spray so it was sprayed early spring and that was it.
well, yeah, blackspot; if so, it should releaf.
but what about drainage problems? I'd wonder about that too, esp if it's been really wet. Wouldn't that cause leaves to yellow and fall off and subsequently probably NOT releaf?
Maybe I'm nuts, but that's what I was getting at.
Here is a link that might be useful: drainage prob with roses
I tried to post this yesterday, but it didn't take?
When there's total leaf drop, you can't omit the possibility of Downey Mildew. Usually with Black Spot, the older leaves drop but the newer leaves remain. It just takes the newer leaves a bit longer to get BS sick enough for them to drop.
Right now, the heat should suppress either disease. But you might want to be ready this fall to contact your county extension agent and for he or she to have someone at state up to snuff on DM identification, just in case.
DM is a lot more serious than BS.
I am the original poster of this message. I haven't had a chance to take photos yet but I will do that soon. I remember when I looked on the ground around the base of my roses, it was as if the leaves had just disintegrated. The leaves weren't even in big enough pieces to see what happened to them.
As I said before, I had been distracted with houseguests and other things for awhile so I didn't notice this problem until it was way too late to look at the leaves and try to diagnose what happened. The leaves just seemed to have ended up on the ground as a sawdust-like material.
I will look tonight to see if there are any new signs of leaves. They have been without leaves for a long time now.
I did think of one thing that I did differently this spring. In addition to an extremely steamy, humid and wet spring and early summer, I put down a heavy layer of shredded wood mulch from Southern States. Not sure exactly what it was comprised of. I usually use a thin layer of pine chips.

Heya all I'm thinking about transfering to a new RP realm to call home but would like to know how active the community is first. I'm also looking for one thats more on the eastern timezone if possible. So far Farstriders seems to fit the bill.
Im generally a medium type Rper still new to the ways of Roleplaying in WoW. I'd be interested in joining a Rp guild on Alliance side as well. I'm comfortable with Night Elves and Worgen mostly, though my NE tend to be a bit more curious/adventurous then most of thier kind. I feel I also should mention that I prefer to follow WoW Lore for my RPing characters but I keep an open mind for others.
I haven't gotten any solid characters going yet but have ideas for very many and would even like to do events. I'd be very interested in doing overworld RP more then anything. Really I dislike the fact everyone stays in the Major cities. And only the ones in Vanilla now.
Anywho any thoughts? What are good RP guilds Ally side? Times you would say are most active maybe?
Thank you for any help you can give.
100 Human Warrior
Farstriders is kind of an oddity amongst the servers. What we lack in quantity we make up for in quality. We, as a whole, tend to embrace those that follow lore and shun those that don't. That said, we don't have RP on every corner and it DOES primarily take place in cities. But getting friends and dragging them elsewhere is easily done. I know I'd jump at the chance to RP outside of the cities, especially with new people.
Alliance hosts at least 1 public event a month, everything from speed dating to auctions. Guilds run story lines and plots and a few plots will leak out into other guilds, depending on the people involved and the type of plot.
The Big Three for RP guilds are The Shadow Hall, The Bottleneck and The Silver Legion. Though, there are others that are rapidly making themselves known. The Alliance RP guild roster is as up to date as I can keep it. Those three differ in a pretty big way. Bottleneck focuses on their bar and those that frequent it, Legion is military oriented and the Hall is a refuge for the unwanted.
Good times... Most of our events start ~7 server (8 EST) and last until much later. Evenings are definitely the more popular times.
I'd recommend you pop into the OOC channels - Pester anyone in The Shadow Hall for the public OOC channel and they'll gladly relay it - and joining an RP guild. I'm sure we can give you a home and I know we'll welcome you with open arms.
Thank you very much I'll have to poke someone then for the OOC channels and lurk about <^.^> I'm mostly active around evening times anyways so its nice to see it gets active round then as well.
85 Undead Rogue
If you stay Alliance, you'll be set for finding good RP from the guilds there. Hordeside IS dead savefor one or two guilds. Anyone who tells you otherwise is clinging onto false hopes.
Threats of violence. We take these seriously and will alert the proper authorities.

"Alternative" Spring Break at Growing Local NOLA!
Some colleges are now encouraging their students to take "alternative" spring breaks – where the main focus is community service and learning through experiences. This past week, Recirculating Farms Coalition hosted two groups of Spring Breakers – one from Kentucky and another from University of Southern Cali Law – at our Growing Local NOLA community garden in New Orleans.
Students got out in the garden and cared for chickens, built, filled and waterproofed raised garden beds, reorganized our greenhouses, cleaned and planted our aquaponic system and much more!
Farm Manager Ica Crawford even cooked some local dishes for all the students to sample – using fresh eggs, greens and herbs right from the garden.
Big thanks to our friends Capstone Community Gardens and David Young for connecting us with the schools sponsoring these programs, the schools themselves for encouraging community service during spring break and of course all the students who worked so hard this past week – our garden looks amazing!!

So'oialo to join Honda Heat

June 2, 2011
Rodney So'oialo has signed a two-year contract with Japanese outfit Honda Heat © Getty Images
Former All Blacks back-row Rodney So'oialo has revealed that he will quit his native New Zealand at the end of the current Super Rugby season to move to Japan.
The Hurricanes ace, who was capped 62 times by his country between 2002 and 2009, has put pen to paper on a two-year contract with the Honda Heat. So'oialo is looking forward to the challenge of adapting to life in a different country but admitted that it will be a wrench to leave his homeland.
"I want to thank the NZRU, Hurricanes and Wellington for their continuous support for me over such a long time," he said. "I really appreciate everything done for me. It has been a privilege and an honour for me to play for these teams and for my country."
New Zealand head coach Graham Henry was quick to pay tribute to a player who captained the Kiwis on seven occasions during a glittering international career.
"[He was] a special All Black and an exceptional man in the team," the former Wales boss said. "His total commitment and passion for the All Blacks jersey has been inspirational and a marvellous example to others.
"He has also been a key member of the leadership group, commanded enormous respect from his fellow players and was the obvious choice as stand-in captain when Richie McCaw was injured.
"Everyone in the All Blacks has the utmost respect for Rodders and we wish him and Marilyn and the family all the very best for their adventure to Japan and in their future endeavours."

Let's welcome back Ms. Mari Martin and her oversized vocal pipes to our musical carousel of a stage this week. I know, I know, she just played here last Saturday with her rootin-tootin band of musical outlaws, but this time around we're really mixing it up.
First, throw Mr. Mike DiBari, glitarist deluxe, a veteran ack-ack gunner, into a large pot. Then add the pulsations and random cacklings of that tonsorially-challenged timekeeper; Mr. Steevee Chaggaris. Fold in two quarts of vodka-infused bass by yours truly, then pour in 180 pounds of fatback organisms and keyboard stylings of the prolific Mr. Mark Retallack. Beat well. Strain through a felt hat.

Make a payment and Save the day!
A $100, non-refundable, fee is required to save your day.
We accept cash or personal checks. You can easily make your payment right here through PayPal.
To explain why the fee is non-refundable: Most of the work we put into your wedding is done before the actual wedding day. The act of simply signing the papers for you and making it legal doesn't take much. This is why we offer that as an inexpensive option. Whey you book a wedding with us we customize your wedding ceremony for you or with you. We have meetings, telephone calls, emails and the writing of the ceremony itself. These take time and it's our business. It how we pay our bills. We also book ahead so we can budget our own lives. If you cancel last minute because you have an emergency or a break up we do our best to understand and won't charge you the full price. The deposit covers our actual expenses. I put several hours of my time into your wedding ceremony before the actual day.
Please be advised that if you choose to pay by personal check we will wait for it to clear before performing services. If you pay with a check the day of your wedding we will keep your marriage certificate until your check clears before we will file it for you. We offer many price points including the least expensive legal wedding in town. You can choose the $50 quickie. Yes, one bad check spoils it for everyone. Sorry. We have kids to feed too.

What To Order at Shiso Tree CafePosted: February 15, 2015 Filed under: Food | Tags: Cheap Eats in Markham, Clam Pasta, Japanese Italian Fusion, Markam Eats, Markham Foodie, Must try Markham, Okonomikyaki Fries, Shiso Tree Cafe, Smoked Salmon Wafu Salad, Unagi Don, Where to eat in Markham Leave a comment
Cy takes after his mom – looks, organization, creativity, and his love for classic rock and guitars. Both of them have cool looking glasses too. Last week, she visited us and new baby D!
With the frigid temps, we haven't really gone out (plus, I was house bound by Chinese tradition – no going out for 30 days post baby's birth). Jail time was over, and we decided to go out to eat in Japan Town's Shiso Tree Cafe. We shared a bunch of dishes (family style of course), and here are the verdicts:
Verdict: Order this, it's like a fancy Japanese Caesar salad. They didn't skimp on the smoked salmon!
Verdict: Order this once to try. I liked the sauce, but the fries weren't the best – they were fried for too long and hard.
Verdict: You must order this, it's kinda life changing. It's creamy, and the barbeque eel was meaty and flavourful.
Verdict: You could pass on this one. It's good but doesn't compare to the Unagi Don (I took the leftover Unagi Don sauce and dumped it on this dish).
We were stuffed by lunch end, I mean look at those portion sizes – they were pretty big. After lunch, we went to Pacific Mall to look for cool, red glasses for Mom. You can never had enough pairs of cool glasses!

Secret Weapon Brownies + Enter to Win a Trip to Spain (Yay)!Posted: January 5, 2015 Filed under: Food | Tags: #Persimonsays, Easy quick brownie, Holiday entertaining recipe, Persimmon recipe, Persimon from Ribera del Xuquer, Ribera del Xúquer persimon, spain trip contest Leave a comment
I've always been the world's slowest eater according to family and friends.
- I take tiny bites to draw out the time that I spend with a really good chocolate cake.
- I distract myself by chatting and forgetting that I have to eat even if it's delicious dim sum.
- I sometimes pick at my bento boxes and eat the good parts (ie. not the rice) then slowly eat the not-so-good parts (ie. the rice).
Then, D came along. He is the boss, and he won't put up with my slow-eating habit. In fact, cooking and baking has to be done in ultra speed too.
So during the holidays, any baking had to be made with easy-to-find ingredients, quick and super delicious. Here is the recipe that did the trick:
Brownies! But, brownies with a secret weapon: Persimons®.
Growing up, my mom bought the short and stout persimmons for the family. They took awhile to ripen and sweeten, but Persimons from Spain are different.
So, here is the recipe! Most of the ingredients are likely already in your fridge and pantry:
1 Persimon®, peeled and chopped
⅔ cup (150 mL) sugar
1 tsp (5 mL) lemon juice
Place the chopped Persimon® in the bowl of a food processor and puree until smooth. Pour the puree into a saucepan. Add sugar and lemon juice stirring slowly over medium low heat until the consistency of jam. Approx. 5 minutes. Set aside.
½ cup (125 mL) unsalted butter
5 oz. (150 g) bittersweet chocolate (70%)
⅔ cup (150 mL) granulated sugar
¼ cup (50 mL) Persimon® jam
3 large eggs
1 pinch of salt
1 tsp (5 mL) vanilla
¾ cup (175mL) all-purpose flour
Grease an 8 X 8 inch (20cm) baking pan and line bottom with parchment paper, leaving a 1 inch (2.5cm) overhang on two sides. Place butter and dark chocolate in a sauce pan over low heat and melt until smooth. Add sugar and stir until dissolved. Add the Persimon® jam, stir and remove from heat.
In a large mixing bowl, beat eggs with a pinch of salt and vanilla until slightly foamy. Add sifted flour and blend until just incorporated. Being careful not to over mix. Pour the brownie batter into the baking pan.
Bake for 30 minutes or until a cake tester comes out clean. Remove from the oven and spread the remaining Persimon® jam over the top of the brownie while it is still hot. Allow to cool completely before cutting into 2 inch squares.
Makes 9 servings
Tah-dah! Easy peasy brownies with Persimons. Cy helped me with the garnishes – sliced persimons and some lemon!

Our baby is here!Posted: December 18, 2014 Filed under: Home | Tags: baby announcement, judy and cyrus ourtorontolife, newborn baby Leave a comment
Little D made his way into the world on December 11th!
Things are settling down at home, and it is a huge help to have my mom from Vancouver here with us.
So far, the little guy is finally sleeping ok, eating well, pooping the stinky diapers, and loving his YouTube playlist including Baby Beluga and Elmo's song.
We are having a baby!Posted: December 3, 2014 Filed under: Event | Tags: december baby, maternity photography toronto, maternity photoshoot, modern nursery, photor maternity, we are having a baby 3 Comments
It's been awhile, I know. The last 9 months, I've been growing this baby bump. Cy and I are expecting a boy later this month. We are a mixed bag of excited, scared and farts.
Did you know? Pregnant women fart more and sometimes they smell like funny eggs.
How do you feel? Pretty good. No morning sickness, and now it feels like there is a bowling ball in my tummy.
Do you have any cravings? No, how boring!
Have you finished the nursery? We are now! We turned the office into a nursery. Out went the desks, and in went the crib, change table, baby stuff and a forest curtain on a steel rod along the glass wall.
Do you have a name? Yes, we will share that once the little guy is born.
Are you ready? We've watched Youtubes, downloaded the apps, and read articles. Last weekend, we just finished our child birth classes where we learnt about everything from dealing with contractions to cuddling your baby. We may or may not be ready, but we will try.
Special thank you to Anooja, Sagar and Sandy for the special gift of a maternity shoot – and a newborn shoot!
Judy and Cyrus Eat Poutine in MontrealPosted: June 23, 2014 Filed under: Food | Tags: best poutine in montreal, canadian poutine, la banquise, la banquise poutine, poutine, poutine in montreal, review la banquise, traditional poutine, where to go in montreal 4 Comments
Poutine has this special little spot in my heart. There are only good memories that came served fries, cheese curds and gravy.
Friendship Poutine One of my best friends, Pia, loves poutine as much as me. When we have a serious catch up, I'd message her on the way to her place and ask, "what do you want?" She almost always says poutine, and I'm glad. So, I call it friendship poutine.
Ottawa When Cy lived in Vancouver and I lived in Toronto, he had a work trip in Kingston. It was perfect meeting place to start a mini trip to Ottawa together. It was in the middle of the winter, and all I remember was the bumpy Rideau Canal skate, hundreds of layers, and Smoke's Poutinerie shared as a snack and breather from the cold.
Giant Poutine I dare you to find someone who loves poutine more than my friend Say who layers it with a pack of bacon in giant aluminum pans.
A new memory was made recently at La Banquise. Cy and I drove almost 6 hours to Montreal for a mini getaway and to eat some poutine. No kidding, we checked into our Buddhist Temple (thanks Air BnB), and walked over to the "best poutine place in Montreal" in the Plateau Mont-Royal neighbourhood.
We go there, and no line ups! It was late afternoon, way after lunch and a bit before dinner so go then. We were seated right away, and we had choices to make with the menu of over 28 poutine kinds.
Forget it, I went with the traditional poutine, La Classique. That will give you the real benchmark of a good poutine.This was all mine, a regular-sized portion of fries, cheese curds and gravy. There was a generous amount of squeeky cheese curds and an even amount of not-too-salty gravy all over the fries. Together, it was good but not the best poutine because of the foundation ingredient aka fries could have been more crisp and less burnt. Plus, some of the cheese curds could have been layered into the fries so that they melted a bit.Cy got something different, and he ordered Le Elvis. Look at that, it's a bit of a heart attack with the ground meat, green peppers and mushrooms. It's a hamburger poutine (that's what Cy said)! The toppings really made the poutine taste far different than mine, and a bit sweet. Look at our excited faces. There is no after shot, but we really did finish our poutines and washed it down with some San Pellegrino. And, it just cost us over $20. Not bad for a good poutine, and another good poutine memory for the brain bank.
La Banquise:
994 Rue Rachel Est Montreal, QC H2J2J3
It's open 24 hours for your serious poutine fix
Potato Waffles > Regular WafflesPosted: June 14, 2014 Filed under: Food | Tags: brunch 2014 toronto, brunch for groups toronto, Brunch in Toronto, potato waffles, starving artist st. clair, waffles in toronto 1 Comment
Almost a year ago, I joined American Express. In ways, it was like starting at a new school with a new building, new things to learn, and new people.
Some of those new people became friends, and it's just nice to have coworkers that you actually want to spend time with outside of work.
Recently, Cy and I joined Lucy, Sandy, Crysthian (Sandy's husband), Anooja and Sagar for some morning brunch – my favourite meal of the day! We picked Starving Artist on St. Clair from a friend's reco of the waffles.
And, we ordered waffles and more.
This is what you have to order here: potato waffles. They taste like crispy mashed potatoes in waffle format. Mine were ordered with sour cream, cheese, chives and bacon (Fully Loaded – $11). The salad and fruit were so so.No surprise here, we all ordered some kind of waffle. And, the verdict was that they were all pretty good – everything but the slow service. From top left (clockwise): The Hitchhiker ($11) with that healthy side of bacon; BLT Sandwich ($9) without the bacon; Tex Mex Chicken Sandwich with really sweet beans ($9); and Breakfast Benny ($11.50) with that creamy hollandaise on poached egg and potato waffle – what a combo!Food and friends, that's a better combo.

Happy Mother's Day + ContestPosted: May 5, 2014 Filed under: Event, Seasonal | Tags: casey stewart gelaskins, gelaskins, gift idea, gift idea for mother's day, happy mother's day, mother's day contest, tech gift for mother's day, unique gift mother's day 16 Comments
Mothers are superheroes. They are strong, fearless and put up with us through all the good and bad. For example, Cy's mom supported us in words and actions when we made our big move to Toronto after our wedding. There was a lot of packing involved there!
This is what Cy had to say about Mom:
Her Super Power: Muscle mimic. She could see something, and then pick it up easily like piano, arts & crafts, cooking, kung fu and tai chi.
How are you most like your mom? She is always happy and tries to look for the best in all scenarios.
My Favourite Memory: As a kid, she would tuck me into bed and tell me that I was the best. She is the best too.
I have to add that she really is great, and she has a wonderful way of making you feel comfortable.
This year, Cy and I chose to do something different for Mother's Day. Flowers die, and chocolates are old. She has an iPhone 4S, and a new case to match her style would be something that could brighten up her Mother's Day and everyday when she uses it.
We asked her to pick a case, and the selection is the best – yes, it really is. This isn't the kind of case design or quality that you will get at some cheap Asian mall.
She picked her top favourite designs, and Cy and I picked Mandevilla Flower because it was vibrant like her.
Win $50 towards any Gelaskins product like an iPhone case, iPad skin or fine art print for your mom. Enter by posting a comment with your name, email and what your mom's superhero power is.
The winner will be drawn by random end of day on May 8th.
**Special thank you to Casie Stewart of Gelaskins for sponsoring this special giveaway contest**

Low Fat, Fat Free, Reduced Fat…
Author: Tedd Falk You might think you are doing your body a favor by purchasing low fat or low calorie food items, but what do these labels really mean? Are these items really the best choice for maintaining good health? First off, don't always assume that "light", "low fat", or "reduced fat" means there is going to be no fat in the food you are buying. Each one of these terms has its own definition of what they really mean. "Light" for example means the food must have 50% less fat. Ok well 50% less fat is pretty good right? Maybe, but it probably comes with an addition of sugar or salt. The truth is that fat tastes good. So when you reduce the fat, something like sugar, salt, or artificial sweetners will be added to bring back the lost taste or else nobody will eat the product. Another side effect of reducing the fat is that it makes the food become less satisfying, which may cause you to overindulge. So what's the alternative? It's quite simple actually, with no gimmicks involved. Think about sticking to whole foods. A "whole food" is a food in its original state without having been processed and is free from any artificial substances. Sure, these foods contain more calories and fat, so the next step is portion control. Know your body and understand how many calories you need on a weekly basis. Think about planning out your meals so you can hold yourself accountable. And, last but not least, exercise! Our bodies are designed to move! So schedule 20-30 mins out of your day and find something you enjoy doing, whether that be running on the treadmill, riding an exercise bike, or taking a fitness class. You'll thank yourself afterwards for doing it.
Cross Training: Why It's Important
Author: Tedd Falk You and your elliptical are basically best friends. You two spend 3 days of the week together for at least 30 minutes and have done so for the last 3 years. You are really good at working out on your elliptical. Maybe TOO good? Problem is, that grocery bag seemed extremely heavy when carrying it up the stairs, and when you dusted off your bike for a ride over the weekend it felt really hard. It might be time to meet some new friends. Hello Crosstraining! Look, we all want to be really good at things, but sometimes specializing isn't always the best solution for us. This is especially true in fitness. We are unfortunately creatures of habit that get stuck in the same routines, all while our bodies crave to move in different ways. So, you don't have to completely break up your relationship with your elliptical, but think about supplementing your elliptical workout with a different form of cardio once and a while. For example, you could make Monday your elliptical day, Wednesday your stationary bike day, and you could even add a strength training day on Friday. If you have a specific goal in mind, find multiple exercises that all work to achieve similar results. By doing this you'll start to find that your fitness level will become much more rounded and stronger overall. Not only will you become stronger overall, but cross training can also prevent the potential for injury. Runners are always a good example of how our muscles can become imbalanced by specializing. Runners are typically very powerful and have high endurance, but constant running causes their quads to overpower their hamstrings. Let's also not forget to mention running completely neglects the upper body. Most runners also fit the stereotype of being very inflexible. All of these factors combined make the body more vulnerable to injury, where they could be avoided by mixing up your workouts. Even in sports, coaches are beginning to encourage kids not to specialize in a sport at too young of an age. Many scouts/recruiters are reporting that they are able to pick out young athletes who have specialized due to weaknesses in overall strength and coordination. If for no other reason, cross train to cut out the monotony! Doing the same thing over and over again gets boring! Freshen up your workout and have some fun with fitness!
Interval Training: What you should know
Author: Tedd Falk Is your regular workout on the treadmill or elliptical getting old? Try pushing that interval training button on the console of your exercise equipment for a new challenge! Interval training is a workout consisting of short, alternating bursts of high intensity activity and light intensity activity. For instance, if you enjoy walking outside, you could begin to jog every 30 seconds. By doing this you will now combine aerobic exercise with anaerobic exercise. What does that mean? Aerobic exercise can vary in intensity based off the individual, but when exercising you are sufficiently generating enough oxygen to meet energy demands and this type of exercise can be performed for longer periods of time. Anaerobic exercise is higher in intensity to the point where lactic acid will begin to form. This type of exercise would more likely be performed by an athlete such as a short distance sprinter. Well I'm no athlete so how will this help me? To start, more intense exercise will in fact burn more calories, and I think we all know why this is important. Your Aerobic capacity will also improve, so that 30 minute workout on the elliptical can turn into 45 minutes. Or, you will be able to perform that 30 min workout at a quicker pace, which again will increase your calorie burn. Lastly, it will keep you from getting stuck in the same old routine. Anyway we can motivate ourselves to get back on our exercise equipment and challenge ourselves to become a healthier person is a good thing. The Octane Fitness 30:30 workout is a great example of an intense interval training workout:
Which type of exercise bike is right for me?
Author: Tedd Falk It's time to get a piece of in-home fitness equipment and you've narrowed it down to an exercise bike. But now you went to the store and you learned that there are 3 different kinds! Here we make the case for all 3 so you can choose the right machine for the right reasons: 1. Recumbent Bike: The La-Z-Boy of exercise equipment. Recumbent bikes have a back rest to lean against for a little bit more comfort and support. This can be a plus for certain medical conditions and for the right person, the added comfort can be a motivational tool as some machines can become uncomfortable which can deter you from using it. Working out is hard enough as it is! Recumbent bikes can also be a bit easier to access as they are lower to the ground and have the option to have what's called a "walk through" design. Therefore, you won't have to step up, or step over anything to get on the bike. Recumbent bikes can have simple or more complex workout features, but almost all will have the option to choose a program that will guide you through a workout. It will be up to you to decide whether these programs will help you better achieve your specific goals. 2. Upright bike: As the name suggests, you are seated upright with no back rest when riding this bike. Where the recumbent bike can cause the perception that you are not working as hard because you are leaning back, the upright will not, and this can keep some riders more engaged in their workout. The majority of upright bikes have a large cushioned seat as opposed to what you would find on an outdoor bike, which most people find to be ideal to maximize comfort. This type of bike is best for the rider that likes to stay seated throughout the workout as most of these bikes are not built for standing sprints from a feel or durability standpoint. Like the recumbent style, the upright can come with simple or more complex workout programs that can guide you through a workout. 3. Spin Bike: Spin bikes are for the true bike riders out there and they do a better job of replicating outdoor road biking. If you are the more aggressive racing type rider, this might be the right bike for you. While some seats can be replaced, spin bikes typically come with your standard outdoor bike seat which may not be comfortable enough for some riders. You will also have the ability to ride while standing and this will feel more natural as opposed to if you were to do this on a standard upright bike. While upright and recumbent bikes will include a computer console to guide you through a workout, everything will be up to you on the spin bike. Most spinners only include a resistance knob that you can turn to either increase or decrease resistance and the option to add a computer to track RPMs, calories, distance, time etc. No matter which one you choose, they can all help you achieve your goals! Good luck!
Why Hire a Personal Trainer?
Author: Tedd Falk 1. Motivation! : Usually working out with a partner helps us push a little harder, but having someone who truly wants to help you achieve your goals can be extremely encouraging. It also takes away the ability to make excuses as you're ultimately paying for the service so you don't want to be throwing money out of the window. 2. Personalized workout plans and goals: Not everyone knows exactly what they should be doing at the gym or on their piece of in home fitness equipment so a personal trainer can help you come up with a more efficient way to reach your goals. You may also have specific needs as far as past or current injuries or medical conditions and a trainer can help you work around these issues. 3. Nutritional advice: Whether you are looking to lose weight or put on muscle, nutrition is going to be half the battle and a trainer can give you advice on when and what you should be eating. 4. Better utilize your equipment: If you have a home fitness gym or are utilizing a health club, there's always the possibility that you may not be using all the features your fitness equipment has to offer. Chances are your trainer does and can help you get the most out of your equipment. 5. A helping hand: I've always found that stretching can sometimes be best performed by two people. Whether it's that tight hamstring or back muscle, an extra hand to apply a little bit more pressure or better alignment can make all the difference in increasing your flexibility.
Dynamic Warmup vs. Static Stretching
Author: Tedd Falk Did you know that the classic thinking of static stretching before your workout is actually making you weaker? We used to think that if we are warming up for a run on the treadmill we should hold a static hamstring stretch to "loosen up". This idea is starting to lose traction as studies are showing that a dynamic warm up is the best way to prepare before any intense physical activity. Dynamic movements work to put the muscle and joint through a series of challenging repetitive motions. The goal of these movements is to truly "warm up" the muscles and get them ready to fire for peak performance. Static stretching works the other way in that holding a specific stretch for 30-60 seconds will lengthen and relax the joint and muscle but will not prepare it for physical activity and this can lead to weakness or potential injury. While both are important, dynamic movements should be performed prior to a workout and static stretching should be performed post workout. So what kind of dynamic exercises should you do? Walking Lunges w/ Twist: Take a deep step forward and turn away from the back leg to get a good stretch in the hip then repeat with the other leg. Inchworm: Start in the pushup position and with straight legs slowly step your feet forward until you reach your hands. Then move back into the pushup position and repeat Explosive Skipping: Skip with one leg exploding as high into the air as you can and repeat with the other leg Explosive Push Up: With your hands on the floor or a bench push up as high as you can so that your hands come off the surface and repeat
Lumbar Disc Injuries and Exercise Benefits
Author: Tedd Falk Let's first begin with the fact that all lumbar disc injuries are different and can create many different symptoms. Always consult your physician before you start any rehabilitation. That being said, any careful exercise that can safely be performed will be extremely beneficial to the healing process of that disc. Personally, I was a collegiate hockey player who ended up with two bulged discs and DJD (Degenerative Joint Disease) at the L-4, L-5 and L-5, S-1 sections of the spine. 3 months and 2 epidural shots later, I was lying in bed thinking my life was over. Unbearable sciatic nerve pain, muscle spasms, and the inability to bend over to even brush my teeth, I did not see any light at the end of the tunnel. Luckily, I am back to the point where I can play the sport I love pain free again. Here are a few exercise related tips that I believe can help you too: 1. Move, move, and move some more. Whatever movements, stretches, exercises you can do, do them! Being a couch potato is one of the worst things you can do with a disc injury but it is unfortunately, sometimes the only thing we feel we can do. Our muscles eventually get used to that lack of movement, which will in effect tighten them up and make us less flexible. And tight muscles (hamstrings, quads, back, etc…) mean more pressure on our joints and disc! 2. So what can I start doing? Typically, walking on a treadmill, riding the exercise bike, or maybe even using the standing or seated elliptical is a good place to start. You will probably find one to be more comfortable or enjoyable than the others, but this low impact exercise should not agitate your symptoms any more than they already are. You will probably find that when you are done, the increase in blood flow, and heat in the muscles will decrease your symptoms. The increased blood flow will also hydrate your discs with the necessary nutrients to aid in healing. 3. Now that I am starting to feel a little better, how can I continue to progress? Core strengthening is very important when it comes to the healing process. A strong core will help protect the area around the spine, so when you do bend over to pick up that heavy box on the ground those core muscles will kick in and make sure you don't get injured again. Grab an exercise ball, medicine ball, or Bosu ball to really work those small stabilizer muscles around the spine. I recommend the static plank as a great core exercise to work on and eventually master. 4. I've lost some flexibility since my injury, how can I get it back? A stretching regimen can work and your physician will most likely recommend a plan for you, but one thing I found to be totally lifesaving is YOGA. Yoga is all about the lengthening of your muscles and spine and this will ultimately take pressure off of your back. Yoga can seem a little intimidating at first, but every instructor I have ever met is always willing to help you through a practice if you ask. Just make sure to start slow and avoid any painful forward bending. 5. I sit all day at work and it is the worst! What can I do to make work more tolerable? I recommend sitting on an exercise ball to help keep the core engaged and to work on good posture. Also, I would strongly consider the LifeSpan treadmill desk so you can walk and work at the same time.

Eggshell over satin
I am in the middle of painting the kitchen and nook with BM Aura. I tore down wallpaper, put Gardz over everything, patched and skim coated the walls, primed and now I'm painting. I got satin sheen because it's the kitchen but, even after the skim coat, there's lots of defects that are accentuated by the satin finish. I've got most of the walls cut in and about half of the walls painted. Now I'm wondering if it would be worth it to change to eggshell. Can I do that midstream? It looks like there are some places that I'd need to do a second coat (or at least patch anyway) but I'm worried about that turning into 3 coats because of the difference in sheen.
Would eggshell make a significant difference in appearance? If so, should I go ahead and finish up full coat with the stain and then do eggshell for the second coat or can I switch over mid job and save myself some work?
Except for trim, I use eggshell on everything. Well, I use flat on ceilings only. Anyway, eggshell will certainly look duller, but it won't accentuate every tiny defect in he wall either. You should be able to paint right over the satin as long as there are two good coats everywhere. I've heard some bozos say you shouldn't do that or it'll peel, but they obviously falsely assume that satin = oil based and eggshell = latex. Wrong! A latex eggshell can be applied right over a latex satin. If you're not fully convinced, then put a coat of primer over everything and then apply your latex.
I had to decide fast so I talked to the people at Benjamin Moore. They were wishy washy about switching finishes midstream and I already had the satin paint so I went ahead and did one coat with that and then did the second coat in matte. It looks orders of magnitude better. There are a couple of places near the trim where a little sheen shows through but that should come up with touch up. I haven't done it yet but they say touch ups won;t show with the Aura.

A few more portraits in this series as I travel through an extensive archive of photographs from Yunnan revisiting a world so different to yours or mine.
Tag portrait
Yunnan's Smoke Culture~
Going back through images from a past trip to Yunnan's Honghe area. I am planning a return visit to the region very soon. This is the first of a series on images of smoking inside the traditional life of the ethnic minorities residing in Yunnan.
The Moment of Truth
There is a moment, a split second, when you are with your camera in the streets, and a moment you were hoping for surrenders itself to you. I am referring to that brief time before your subject has a time to react to your lens. I love that magical click that finds the person inside of their essence; a line of connection between you, the lens and the person.
Street Portraits~ Finding Myself in the Streets of Dubai
These striking men are part of the foreign working force that powers the engine of the Dubai metropolis. They granted my eye contact and for that I am grateful.
Images taken during our last 'finding yourself in the streets' street photography workshop earlier this month.
Feature in 'Inspired Eye'
Thank you 'Inspired Eye' for a great feature and interview with other fantastic photographers. You can get your issue here!
Summer in the old alley~ Shanghai
Each time I start a new walk into one of the old alleys of Shanghai, I feel as though I am entering another world where simple life, community feeling, tradition and open communication thrive. There is a charm to the old alleys and a distinct sense of nostalgia that makes them so attractive and keeps me coming back. As long as they are there, the spirit and essence of Shanghai continue to live on.
Holding on to innocence~
As my little girl grows up, I watch with quiet desperation how her innocence begins to recede to the background. The old simple jokes that made her laugh again and again are now silly, the complete freedom with which she skipped all over the world and its problems is beginning to allow bits of worry into her magical world. Questions about the state of the world arise causing a frown to form on her previously every radiant and smiling face. Nothing prepares a parent for the inevitable letting go of their child's innocence. We hold on to it desperately, we pray that the hugs will last longer, that the laughter will ring louder and that worry will keep its fangs away from our babies.
Gentleman of the Bund~ Shanghai
lonely together~ Shanghai
We created and developed technology to connect us, little did we know how lonely it would make us…
First snowflakes in Shanghai
And it took us all by surprise, the first snow in Shanghai…
