There's something very dangerous happening in states across the country.A wave of legislation, introduced in more than two dozen states, would allow people to discriminate against their neighbors.

Fire at Spring Valley Farm in Montgomery County kills 24 pigs; horses savedThe Associated Press, ABC 7 News Hace 5 horas
POOLESVILLE, Md. (AP) - Nearly two dozen pigs have been killed in a barn fire in Montgomery County. The fire broke out Sunday at Spring Valley Farm. Montgomery County firefighters were called to the scene, along with large capacity water tankers because there were no fire hydrants in the area. Fire department spokesman Pete Piringer says the barn collapsed shortly after crews arrived. Horses in the area were not harmed, but about two dozen pigs died in the blaze.
Calvary Temple in Sterling investigated for decades of alleged sexual abuseDiane Cho, ABC 7 News
STERLING, Va. -- Dozens of people held signs across the street from Calvary Temple in Sterling this morning protesting against the church. The Loudoun County Sheriff's Office confirms that they are now investigating allegations of sexual abuse at the church. In a statement, the spokesperson said that they could not provide additional details because the investigation is still ongoing. ABC7 spoke to one of the alleged victims by phone because she was out of town. She said the sexual abuse started when she was about 12 or 13 and she's now 26. Former members describe it as a cult-like atmosphere. Andrew Lawrence says he was raised in the church for nearly three decades and left it when he started questioning its practices. Lawrence was among the protestors across from the church. "I'd like to see everything exposed. The more we can get this nationally the better," he said. "At the end of the day, that's what we want, I think, is for justice to come out." No one at the church would speak with ABC7. Detectives are asking anyone who has any information that might help the investigation to call the Loudoun County Sheriff's Office.

?Washington Business Report? ? March 29, 2015Rebecca Cooper
WASHINGTON (WJLA) – On this week's edition of "Washington Business Report" with ABC 7 News National Correspondent Rebecca Cooper: One-on-one with D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser The job of mayor of D.C. has brought many diverse challenges to Muriel Bowser, from policy issues to the weather. In her one-on-one interview, Bowser discussed what she describes as the biggest challenge, what her managing style is, and being a female mayor. Biggest challenge: • Unpredictability—Bowser's days will often stray from the scheduled agenda. • She addresses spontaneous issues, but says it is vital to always return to the agenda. Managing style: • Bowser tackles problems by calling together her staff. • As was the case with the heavy snow this winter, Bowser says she and her staff view each issue from top to bottom and look for solutions moving forward. Being a female mayor: • Bowser, though key on being a mayor for all, embraces being a female mayor with pride. • She says she likes the opportunity to inspire younger females. Small business spotlight: Baby Got Booked Media coverage is a precious resource. Small businesses sometimes struggle to convince media outlets, which receive hundreds of pitches a day, that their story is one worth telling. Geeta Nadkarni, founder of Baby Got Booked, shares how to set yourself apart and command media coverage: PR: • Nadkarni is a proponent for DIY (do-it-yourself) PR, especially for small businesses that do not have large budgets. • Make sure to research the media outlet and identify the proper individuals to contact who are in a position to tell your story. Pitches: • Producers may ask, "Why now?" and "What's in it for our audience?" • Make sure your elevator pitch is succinct and strong. • Nadkarni says small business owners should learn to "speak in sound bites." Round table: Lowering taxes and key issues For this week's roundtable, Rebecca Cooper was joined by former Virginia Governor Jim Gilmore and the Washington Post's Steven Overly. The trio discussed lowering taxes and the issues they see as most important today. If we as a country want lower taxes, Gilmore says we must: • Spur investment from tax reform. • Harness wealth. • See job growth and wage increase. Key issues: • Overly says he will pay careful attention to Congress when it returns from spring recess. • Gilmore says international instability, such as in Russia, could affect the U.S.

Hundreds attended the memorial ceremony to support the families and survivors. The department has one of the highest rates of officers killed in the line of duty in Virginia.

14-year-old girl injured in D.C. apartment shootingABC 7 News, Richard Reeve
WASHINGTON (WJLA) - A 14-year-old girl was injured during a shooting in Southwest D.C. Friday evening. The girl was shot while sitting on a front stoop with her family at the P Street Apartments. When officers arrived, they found the girl wounded in the leg. She was transported to Children's Hospital. The girl's identity has not been released, and it's unknown whether the girl is recovering at the hospital or at home. Metropolitan Police officers arrived Saturday night to set up emergency safety lights around P and 1st Streets as they continue to investigate this case. Several MPD cruisers set up watchposts on opposite ends of the block. Police believe a lone gunman was shooting at multiple targets. It's unclear who the gunman was firing at and why. Bullets shattered or broke several nearby windows in the neighborhood. Police so far have released little information on this case, except that they are searching for a white-colored car.

Nephew charged with threatening to kill his uncle, a Montgomery County judge, and torch his homeKevin Lewis
CHEVY CHASE, Md. (WJLA) - A Montgomery County Circuit Court judge's life threatened, his adult nephew is now behind bars. Police say Hugo Albornoz, 35, of Chevy Chase, divulged murderous plans that included slicing Judge David Boynton's throat, shooting Boynton in the head, plus torching the county justice's million-dollar Bethesda home. "Initial indications are there was some sort of blame being placed on the judge for [Albornoz's] particular circumstances," Montgomery County State's Attorney's Office spokesman Ramon Korionoff said. On January 2, and then again on March 10, Albornoz allegedly told his father about the violent measures he wanted to take against his unsuspecting uncle. Following the second telling in March, Albornoz's father called the Montgomery County Crisis Center. Police were dispatched to the Albornoz residence where they handcuffed the 35-year-old and took him to Suburban Hospital for a mental evaluation. Prosecutors later charged Albornoz with two counts of Threatening to Injure a State Official. "If you look across the county, from Illinois and Michigan and other places, there have been judges that have been attacked, that have been seriously injured or killed even," Korionoff remarked. For instance, in April 2014, Montgomery County Circuit Court judge Audrey Creighton was kidnapped by her estranged lover, Rickley Senning, 25, formerly of Gaithersburg. Creighton, who said she feared for her life, escaped from Senning's grip outside a Darnestown Harris Teeter grocery store. Senning was later sentenced to three years in prison. "As far as making sure that the courthouse and members of the bench are protected, the Montgomery County Sheriff's Department does a tremendous job, and they'll continue to monitor the situation," Korionoff concluded. Despite much speculation, police have not revealed why Albornoz allegedly schemed to kill his own uncle, judge Boynton. Albornoz does have a criminal record for offenses like assault, harassment and drug distribution. In fact, Montgomery County Circuit Court judge John Debelius III sentenced Albornoz in March 2014, to three years of probation in an assault case. His most recent arrest violates the terms of his probation. If he's found guilty of threatening to kill Judge Boynton, Albornoz could spend up to six years in prison. His next court date is April 27, in Montgomery County District Court.

N.Y. woman charged with stealing Bethesda woman's dog to recoup debtKevin Lewis
BETHESDA, Md. (WJLA) - A New York woman is charged with stealing a Bethesda woman's dog to recoup an unpaid debt. Aparna Reddy was charged Friday for the theft of a $2,000 Yorkshire Terrier. According to Montgomery County Police, the two women were long-time friends, and the dispute started over a $7,000 loan. The dispute reached its peak when a break-in occurred at the woman's Bethesda home. Days after the break-in, Reddy reportedly offered to help the woman find her dog for $5,000. Later, a call came from a blocked number telling the woman her dog would die. Detectives reviewed Reddy's cell phone records and discovered she was in Bethesda on the day of the break-in. The Yorkshire Terrier was found and returned safely to the woman.

16th Street Bridge construction keeps residents up at nightRoz Plater
WASHINGTON (WJLA) – Night construction along 16th Street NW is not only creating a headache for drivers, but is also keeping neighbors up at night. ABC7 did not hear much noise Friday evening, but area residents say it usually starts much later at night. People who live nearby called 7 On Your Side when they couldn't get any answers from the city. Crews are working to replace the 57-year-old 16th Street Bridge over Military Road. The work and disruption of traffic flow are expected to go on the next four months. The D.C. Department of Transportation (DDOT) put out a notice that beginning Friday night, and on some other upcoming weekends, crews will work from 7 p.m. Friday through 5 a.m. Monday. The agency also said that during the week the construction would take place during the day. But some folks who live in an apartment building right next to the construction called 7 On Your Side. They say they've been putting up with construction noise at night since mid-February—noise that sounds like drilling and jackhammers. "All you hear is duh-duh-duh-duh-duh-duh and the cranes moving," said Sheila Dade. "It's constant." Katherine Gaines added, "Every night. Every night, there is no break, there is no let-up. It's like when you open your blinds and you see that bright light coming through, you already know that you're not going to get any sleep that night." DDOT promised 7 On Your Side it would look into the issue. ABC7 has also put calls out to other agencies, trying to find what work the contractors are allowed to do at night—what their permits say.

PG Co. Police officer who died in crash had BAC of .07, reached 106 mphThe Associated Press, Richard Reeve
PALMER PARK, Md. (AP/WJLA) – Prince George's County Police say an officer who died after crashing his cruiser had a blood alcohol concentration high enough to have been charged with driving while impaired. Officers said in a news release Friday evening that speed may have also contributed to 26-year-old Officer Brennan Rabain's death on March 7. Investigators had reported that Rabain was off duty and driving his girlfriend home when he spotted a speeding car. Police said Friday that Rabain reached a speed of 106 mph during the pursuit. Officers say at 64 mph, Rabain lost control of his car, which went off the road and crashed into a wooden fence along Greenbelt Road in Lanham. The fatal impact occurred at 50 mph. Rabain's girlfriend survived the crash. Hours later, friends and family were at the scene, grieving. Chief Mark Magaw said in a statement that he does not condone Rabain's decision to drive after consuming alcohol. Police say they will never know the exact cause of the crash, but that it may have been a costly case of distracted driving under icy conditions. It happened when Rabain reached for his radio to call in to dispatch. "Reaching down and changing on a police radio, that spit second—if I had to guess—that's when he lost control," Magaw said. Investigators insist this was not a police pursuit and that alcohol was not the primary cause. They say Rabain drove about six-tenths of a mile from the time he was passed by the reported speeding car to the crash. Investigators say they sifted through video surveillance, interviewed a Park Police officer who spoke with Rabain, and a driver who followed his cruiser, who says he saw no signs the officer was intoxicated. The police department has a zero-tolerance alcohol policy in its cruisers. Civilians are permitted to ride in police cars, with previous written permission. Officers are told to use their discretion when responding to emergencies, and when making decisions whether civilian passengers should be let out beforehand. The chief says the Prince George's County Police Department will review its policies about civilians riding in police vehicles—and its pursuit policies in general. "While we will never know what role alcohol played in this crash, the outcome is tragic," Magaw concluded.
Md.-based CharmedBars supports Autism Awareness MonthAlison Starling
GAITHERSBURG, Md. (WJLA) – Autism Awareness Month kicks off in just a few days and two Gaithersburg women are doing their part to support the cause. Jen Burnstein and Debbi Ascher started CharmedBars 13 years ago after the women, who were both fighting health issues, discovered that changing their eating habits improved the way they felt. "When I cut those things out of my diet—the gluten, the grains, especially the refined sugars, the soy—my inflammation is much lower and I don't suffer," said Burnstein. After having trouble finding snack bars that fit their special dietary needs, the women decided to develop a product of their own. CharmedBars are filled with fruit and nuts and are free of gluten, grains, dairy, soy, refined sugars and more. The women initially tested their recipe on friends and had great success. "We would hand them out, we wouldn't tell them what we were doing, but we would give the bars to friends and they would come back and say, 'Can I have some more of those bars?'" Ascher said. "So, we knew we were on to something." CharmedBars now produces an estimated 30,000 bars each month and ships its products worldwide. Burnstein, who has family members with autism, said the bars are an "autism approved," healthy, whole-food snack. For the month of April, CharmedBars is donating 10 percent of each bar sold to the Autism Hope Alliance. CharmedBars come in three flavors and are available at Whole Foods and Kroger grocery stores.

New thyroid test could aid in weight loss effortsLiz Bonis
CINCINNATI, Ohio (Sinclair) -- If people are feeling tired all the time or have trouble losing weight, a new test now available could give some additional information to help people get the right treatment. It's called the Thyroflex. Angie Montgomery recently decided to take the Thyroflex test which starts with a comprehensive questionnaire and information put into a computerized machine. Jeff Hogrefe, a pharmacist, explains, The Thyroflex machine measures whats the functionality of your thyroid. Hogrefe is a pharmacist who administers the test. It is approved for use by the Food and Drug Administration. It measures what the thyroid does in the body. Part of what made Montgomery say she felt like an ideal candidate for the additional information and additional testing was that she'd already had a blood test and that blood test did show her thyroid was within normal ranges. She said, however, she was still feeling some symptoms associated with lower thyroid; fatigue, lack of concentration, feeling cold all the time. Montgomery said, I'm cold all the time. My nose is cold, losing weight is difficult. It works with small hammer that is connected to a computer. The hammer is used to strike a tendon near the elbow which measures the rate and caliber of the reflex response to determine thyroid function. Hogrefe said generally the longer it takes for a reflex response, the more thyroid a person generally needs. Montgomery's tests from the Thyroflex came up within normal ranges. So for right now she will continue vitamin supplements and a healthy lifestyle and will follow up with her healthcare provider. This test is not covered by most medical insurance plans. The test itself is $60, but people do need a nurse practitioner visit for assessment first. That can be an additional charge.

'Drunk' driving Secret Service agents may not have actually been drunkABC News
WASHINGTON (ABC News) - New documents obtained by ABC News reveal conflicting accounts by top Secret Service officials about whether two senior agents were drunk when they drove into the White House complex. It all started with an allegation -- via anonymous email -- that Secret Service agents were "extremely intoxicated" as they drove through an active crime scene set up just outside the White House complex on the evening of March 4. But documents obtained by ABC News show that two senior Secret Service officials who believed the two agents involved in the now infamous incident were not intoxicated, based on their interactions with the agents that evening. The agents, Marc Connolly and George Ogilvie, had been accused of driving through the crime scene near a White House gate while possibly under the influence of alcohol after attending a retirement party for a colleague. The accusation of drunkenness was slow to move up the chain of command and word of the anonymous e-mail only reached Secret Service Director Joseph Clancy five days later on March 9. Secret Service officials then gathered information on the allegations of agent misconduct to be passed on to the Department of Homeland Security Inspector General, in accordance with agency policy. The information was based in part on recollections of some of the supervisors involved in the incident five days earlier. The documents were part of the material presented to the DHS Inspector General by the Secret Service. One of those documents details some of the recollections of Secret Service Deputy Chief Alfonso Dyson and Captain Michael Braun, both of the Uniformed Division. "Deputy Chief Dyson advised that based on his conversation with DSAIC Connolly, it did not appear as though DSAIC Connolly [was] impaired," according to Dyson's account of his phone conversation with Connolly described in the document. Dyson called Connolly on the evening of March 4, after he was alerted to the incident. Connolly told Dyson that he had made a mistake, which Dyson believed to be referring to driving into the crime scene at that entrance caused by a suspicious package tossed at that location by a woman earlier that evening. The document goes on to say, "Captain Braun advised that the driver of the [government vehicle] (ATSAIC Ogilvie) did not appear to be intoxicated." And though Braun advised that Connolly's eyes appeared glassy, he commented, "that he did not believe that DSAIC Connolly or ATSAIC Ogilvie was intoxicated." According to documents, Deputy Chief Dyson had been briefed on the incident on the evening of March 4 by Uniformed Division Inspector Keith Williams. Citing an "unknown source," Williams said he was told Connolly, a passenger in the car, "smelled of alcohol," the document states. According to congressional sources, no other evidence other than the anonymous email and the unknown source has been presented to suggest that either agent was drunk. Multiple sources who have reviewed video of the incident tell ABC News that it does not provide any conclusive evidence of impairment. The documents also show that the Connolly told Dyson that he and Ogilvie did not realize that the White House complex was under alert condition yellow due to the suspicious package investigation at that entrance. Only when they noticed that the security post was unoccupied did they check their BlackBerry devices and learn of the alert. A detailed timeline of events obtained by ABC News shows that Director Clancy was called at 10:48 p.m. on the evening of March 4 to inform him of the suspicious package. The two agents arrived at the White House only 10 minutes later, at 10:58. Yet, records show, no one from the Secret Service bothered to call Clancy back that evening to inform him of alleged misconduct. Video of the incident released Tuesday shows no drama, no collision and at most, a low-speed vehicle maneuver which bumped a temporary traffic barrel out of the path of the entrance of the White House complex. The video has a limited view, but does not show indications of a particularly active crime scene. The video also does not show that the agents flipped on their lights to go around the barrier, as they are accused of doing in the anonymous email. It does show a vehicle moving just behind the agents' car followed closely by a police car that did have its rooftop light bar flashing. Rep. Elijah Cummings was troubled by the e-mail, telling the Director Clancy at a Tuesday hearing, "It appears that we have an agency at war against itself. The idea that in an organization like this that somebody would create this kind of document to bring this kind of disruption when they are supposed to be guarding the president of the United States of America. We are better than that." It is now up to the inspector general to determine whether the allegations of misconduct have merit, why they were not communicated more quickly up the chain of command and what can be done to get the Secret Service can get back on track. That process, sources say, could take several weeks.

I have a question about 3.5G (H+) in cloudyStock 2.2. When I connected the 3G connection on Stock Rom (D805 - Brazil) I could browse 3.5G (H +) normally. But now that I'm in CloudyStock Rom 2.2, I turn on 3G and appears only the "H" symbol. Because it no longer appears the symbol "H +" on CloudyStock? Is it normal? is that I am no longer looking at 3.5G in CloudyStock?
What should I do to re-navigate 3.5G (H +) in cloudyStock?
OBS:. Did a clean install and installed the baseband D805.
Sorry for English, I used Google Translate for that.
Thanks, awaiting an answer.

What HAVE I done?!
Okay, each and every one of you are a horrible influence!!!! . . .I've ordered more Hoyas. *sigh* My hubby is NOT going to be happy with me (if he NOTICES the plants). hehehe
Okay, here's what I have ordered in the last 72 hours . . . ready?
sp. Biak Island
sp. Kapit
sp. Kast (yippee)
onychoides 'Venus'
I think I have a problem . . . ;)
OMG Carolyn!!! Didn't you just get a bunch and don't you have a big ol' wish list with Joni going? That's it, I'm going to show this to my husband so he can see for himself that I'm not as nearly as far gone as I could be ;) Goofy girl!!!
I am truly very excited for you Carolyn!
I feel your pain Carolyn. I got impatient waiting for my order from Hawaii so I put in one from Thailand and another small one from the Netherlands. I am going to have to go out and get more potting supplies just deal with all of the cuttings. The worst part is that as soon as I get all the plants on my wish list I just go and make another list, I'm hopeless.
Congrats on the new cuttings
I have a request. And remember, it's only a request: Can I see where you are putting all these hoyas? I want to know how you are arranging them. I'm having a bit of a time trying to figure out how to accommodate all the hoyas that I really want, but still manage to keep them happy.
Good haul, by the way!
Carolyn....congratulations!! What a nice selection you've made, I'm sure they'll all please you tremendously. Mike, don't worry about being "hopeless"...most of us feel the exact same way....and by the next day, we're looking for more!! LOL Fondly, Patrick
Wowsers Carolyn ! That's quite a load. . . lol.
I have H. montana (of coarse I do) I got it from CN and Crassicaulis (from Gardinos). Montana is a nice little plant. Crassicaulis on the other hand is a hard one to decribe. I can't tell if it wants to climb, hang or just grow in a cluster. The leaves are really stiff and one is as long as my hand. It took awhile to get used to me but now it's taking off.
Enjoy all your new bebies. . .
I recently gave a little slide show presentation of my hoyas to a gardening club. One of the attendees asked how many I had and when I answered he said, "You know you need a 12 step program". He could not have been more right! Since then I have acquired 18 more cuttings and have 2 more coming any day! In defense of acquiring more (as if I need to defend acquiring hoyas on this forum!) 2 were a trade and 12 were pretty inexpensive...
...I love my hoyas!
Nice selection, Carolyn!
Quinn . . . here is an old picture . . . There are more, now, but they are on a utility shelf with a plant light on them.
Mike, that's what I did . . . ordered one from FL and had it held for a bit, so made two separate HI orders! It's killing me!!!
Maid, can't wait to see what they all look like. :) What fun!!!
Carolyn, OMG!! Congrats...are you sure you won't need a whole
UPS truck just to make the delivery just for you? You have really been bitten by the HOYA Bug really bad!! Enjoy your new babies!!
Here's hoping your hubby doesn't notice the UPS truck unloading your hoyas on a flatbed,lol...
ROTFLOL.....12 step program! My DH is afraid to walk out into the Screened Florida room. He says he afraid on of my Hoya vines will take a life one of these days....ROTFLOL.
Whats that at the bottom of the latter...attached to the moss???
LGS, that WAS a NOID Dischidia . . .didn't make it. And I got tired of fighting with it! Some plants are just more trouble than they are worth. And THAT was one of them. These pics are quite old! End of last summer, I think. I'll take a pic of my kitchen shelf sometime. I'm just not motivated.
I spent the last hour potting up some trade cuttings and plants I got in the mail, today. Luckily, the hubby wasn't home!
Depending on how old the pics are, you and I are kinda in the same boat. Baby hoyas don't take up the same kind of room as what I call grownup hoyas. But maybe you've already rearranged and bought new furniture for your hoyas since then : ) Argh. I'm trying to figure out who will live where. My windows are not huge and I have a window AC unit in one of them. And I also have a large African violet collection. Methinks I need to start taking over some of the windows in the rest of the house...
You, my dear, are also a BAD INFLUENCE... I just bought two more hoyas, and I was promising myself no more until I figure my space out. I'm also trying not to spend much right now. Oh well. I got sp. Square leaf and benguetensis. So that leaves me trying to squeeze australis ssp. Tenuipes, a second var. macrophylla, calycina, benguetensis, and sp. Square leaf into this:
Yeah, this isn't even the most recent pic. I rearranged to better accommodate what I had. And now I probably gotta do it again. Just out of curiosity, what is your grand list of hoyas now? Mine's posted on my member page. I'm still really itching to get finlaysonii, but I absolutely need to see where I'm at before I even think about it. AND every time I see villosa I feel like I need it. Seriously have to watch it with the larger leaved hoyas though. I have a problem ; P
I have wicks on almost all of my African violets. Otherwise, it takes way too long to water them, and I don't get around to watering them as often as they prefer. Now they seem much happier and bloom better for me. I'm tempted to wick my multiflora though. I think I might wait until it gets bigger and therefore might use more water. Right now it is little and cute and in a 3 in pot.
Here is my solution to growing larger Hoyas. The shelves are fully adjustable chromed wire and I use three levels with two for stabilization of the rack and just one to place plants on. The window is south facing and there is an LED panel at the end of the shelf that is farthest from the window plus an LED spot light that shines on a large plant that is placed on the floor.
Each drain tray holds two rows of 6"-8" pots with 4-5' bamboo trellises and the trays are aerated with an aquarium air pump and stone and drain down to a bucket.
Here is a tray with half of the plants removed so that you can get a better view. Hoya sp Palawan is in bud to the far left in the photo.
This photo shows the lower tray that is placed on top of a low table. This tray also holds two rows of plants.
These plants can end up taking up lots of space. I have four trays like this for larger plants and the rooted cuttings are all mixed in with my orchids on two three tier shelving units each with a dual fluorescent light strip.
What is that lovely leaved one to the far right, Mike? Yours look happy for the extra space. Also, your window looks bigger than mine, I'm a little envious.
I'm forced to utilize the 'keep wrapping it around a hoop' method for now. Which will work okay for the smaller leaved guys. Not so much for the big leaved ones. Thanks for sharing your pics. Are you happy with the LED lights? I'm on the fence about getting some...
Carolyn because I am in an apartment all of the usable windows are along the South facing walls, almost the entire length of my 2 bedroom + all of the living/dining area. I have occupied most of this space in two rooms with scattered plants in the living area. As you can imagine I was very picky when choosing an apartment, #1 priority was windows.
Quinn that is a Hoya sp. collected on Sulawesi and it is probably related to Hoya macrophylla. That plant has been a slow grower but each new leaf is larger than the rest.
The LED lights are good but they are not powerful enough to light a dim area as the only source of light unless you get the really high wattage ones. I like mine for adding a little light here and there and they are good in that during the summer they help to reduce the heat indoors by not heating up themselves. I also use a lot of flourescent lights, tubes and compacts.
Are you talking about the dark leaved one that is just barely in the 2nd photo, or the dark veined one on the shelf? I was wondering what the veined one was. But now I'm curious about that dark leaved one too. So many hoyas, so little time/space/money...
Thanks for the info about the LEDs. I think I may hold off for now then. They aren't the easiest for me to find, and kinda pricey.
Here is an old photo of the one with the dark veins. I think it may be Hoya callistophylla but it came to me from Paul Shirley labeled as Hoya meredithii GPS 3576 20033. There are three peduncles budding up one this plant right now but the blooms are really small. The blooms are fully open in the first photo to give you an idea of their size.
The large dark leaved Hoya is also from Paul Shirley as is Hoya sp. Sulawesi GPS 8867 but it is probably a form of Hoya macrophylla. The developing leaf in the photo is still growing and is already 4.5" across and 6" long.

|Reviews for Good Old Fashioned Lover Boy
| go.suck.on.a.lemon chapter 1 . 12/27/2013
At first I was like, "a stripper AU, what the heck is this?" And then I was like, "damn, Phil's hot like that." And then you cracked my heart open and feelings pure out. Now this is going to be headcannoning in my brain for weeks.
| AlienTourist chapter 1 . 6/8/2013
This was really good!
| Kaerith chapter 1 . 3/7/2013
I haven't gotten into Avengers fanfic before, but I found the link to this on someone's Faves list and decided to read it and ended up really liking it. The characterizations were good as AU characters, but I did like the in-jokes that tied the story to the movies. Having Steve top was a great way to go, that sharpened the contrast of his personality and his appearance, which is what made his pre-transformation character more interesting for me in the CA film. I also appreciated the political references you made; while Phil's character wasn't explored as much as Steve's (well, his /personality/ I mean ;), the brief insight into why he was discharged provided a nice connection between the characters. Most of all, I loved how you made both characters masculine, and didn't default to short scrawny girlishly cute.
| Vampirelle chapter 1 . 2/12/2013
I love it! The story is amazing and the way it's written, just, damn! Straight to favourites and I'm off to read your other stories.
| Precira chapter 1 . 12/21/2012
God I could read this story again and again, I just love it!
| Storm.Gazer chapter 1 . 11/20/2012
aw, this was surprisingly romantic
| Crystal M. Key chapter 1 . 10/23/2012
This was both adorably awkward and sexy as hell. This was a great read and I appreciate that you worked all the Avengers into it, even if we didn't see Clint in-story. I giggled when I realized that the bartender was Bruce wearing the Purple Shirt of Sex. Thank you!
| nellisnellis chapter 1 . 10/15/2012
New OTP? NO DON'T GIRL! *whispers* I'm sorry girlllllll
And now that girl, has left science boyfriends and ventured in to the land of capsicoul... SHIT HOT DAMN THIS FIC WAS GREAT! PERFECT AU I MUST SAY . JOLLY GOOD FRIEND, JOLLY GOOD!

Sorry, forgot to sign in, that last review was from me.
| Guest chapter 1 . 10/11/2012
I know it says complete, but I'd be interested in reading more within this universe. Its very sweet, with the right hint of melancholy, not to mention ripe with possibility. Overall good, into the favorites it goes.

there is not enough capsicoul in this world! so goooooood

Dennis Selvig of Sumter, SC - June, 03 2013:
Superb! What an upgrade from a previous version that I bought and wore out! Inflatable pad is already slotted into the bed. Pouch underneath to hold those odds and ends (like the packing bag)! Wider and longer than older version, so now I can roll over without getting out and back in. Overall, improving an already good idea results in a super product!

Charlotte man drowns while fishing at Catawba pond
Catawba County deputies say the victim of a drowning Sunday morning was a Charlotte man on a fishing trip.
The Sheriff's Office said Richard Cain, 39, died after a boat in which he was fishing overturned. It took place about 11:30 a.m. at Murray's Mill pond, a few miles south of the town of Catawba.
Authorities said Cain and a relative were fishing a short distance north of the Murray's Mill dam, when their boat overturned. The relative swam safely to shore, but Cain disappeared.
Catawba County rescue teams arrived quickly, authorities said, but it took nearly two hours to find Cain's body.
