Forever remembered by film buffs as the man who brought King Kong to New York, American actor Robert Armstrong was a law student at the University of Washington in Seattle when he dropped out in favor of a vaudeville tour. Learning by doing, Armstrong worked his way up to "leading man" roles in a New York stock company run by veteran character man Jimmy Gleason. Gleason's play Iz Zat So? led to a film contract for Armstrong, whose first picture was The Main Event (1927). The actor's stage training served him well during Hollywood's switchover to sound, and he appeared with frequency in the early talkie years, at one point costarring with Broadway legend Fanny Brice in My Man (1930). An expert at playing sports and showbiz promoters, Armstrong was a natural for the role of the enthusiastic but foolhardy Carl Denham in King Kong (1933). Armstrong enjoyed some of the best dialogue of his career as he coerced erstwhile actress Fay Wray to go with him to Skull Island to seek out "money, adventure, the thrill of a lifetime", and as he egged on his crew to explore the domain of 50-foot ape Kong. And of course, Armstrong was allowed to speak the final lines of this imperishable classic: "It wasn't the planes...It was beauty killed the beast." Armstrong played Carl Denham again in a sequel, Son of Kong (1933), and later played Denham in everything but name as a shoestring theatrical promoter in Mighty Joe Young (1949), wherein he brought a nice giant gorilla into civilization. Always in demand as a character actor, Armstrong continued to make films in the 1940s; he had the rare distinction of playing an American military officer in Around the World (1943), a Nazi agent in My Favorite Spy (1942), and a Japanese general in Blood on the Sun (1945)! In the 1950s and 1960s, Armstrong was a fixture on TV cop and adventure programs. Perhaps the most characteristic moment in Armstrong's TV career was during a sketch on The Red Skelton Show, in which Red took one look at Armstrong and ad-libbed "Say, did you ever get that monkey off that building?"

Did Easter weekend here. Room fantastic, while a bit far from the beach - by about 20 metres the only problem I had was not being able to go out the backdoor and lockit, and the light switches. Light switches at far end of room so a bit of astumble in the dark, as in line with requests and island lifestyle switched lights off when out to save power.
Walk to beach was great going but coming back we found back way so not to have to walk through reception while dripping wet.
Biggest problem and let down was the restaurant. We had appaling treatment from the lady who appeared to be the senior staff memeber running kitchen and dining room. Treated like we were idiots and liars. The only redeeming factors were that what she did to my pizza was so Monty Pythonish that all I can do is laugh about. The rest of our stay there all the local retsuarants got our money for lunch and dinner. If you do stay do not complain about cold food, or you too may get a Monty P show.
Overall a great place, great rooms but all ruined by the experience in the restaurant, would recommend to others but would have to mention experiences.

unicode possibilities
It would be nice if cl-user would display unicode input for CJK text. With PCL and On Lisp getting new printings in Japan, it might be beneficial to attract more brain-share from that side of the world. Would this be considered out of cl-user.net's scope?

re: unicode possibilities
I have to think about it.
The use of English as the standard language is prefered so that the information is useable by most lispers.
I don't mind some other language content though.

Vancouver's expensive housing make it tough for companies to bring in new talent from other regions, in particular senior managers and executives as lofty housing prices are forcing young professionals out of the city and into long commutes to far-flung suburbs, with some choosing to leave the entire region behind for better opportunities in neighboring provinces.

Simple, elegant, and sturdy
John from Orange, CA– Verified Buyer
I bought the Milano Plus stand for a 50" plasma in our master bedroom. I would describe the color as a dark cherry. The veneer and underlying wood are real wood, and the finish is beautiful. No cheap-looking vinyl over particle board here. The shelves are glass, painted black on the underside, resulting in a deep, glossy look that compliments the dark wood.
Great, just a few nit picks, but %100 satisfied with
Andrew from South Deerfield, MA– Verified Buyer

Very Nice Stand....
Victor from Scottsdale, AZ– Verified Buyer

Great product matches description and other customer reviews.
Brenda from Clinton, MA– Verified Buyer
Love the contemporary style. Very sturdy - as long as you move the stand using the wooden legs and not the glass shelves. Very pleased with the overall product. One thing I have to point out is the assembly instructions can be a little confusing - as there are no written instructions only drawings - and some of those aren't too clear. In the end we accomplished the assembly and were pleased with the end result.
Nice looking piece of furniture
Richard from Toms River, NJ– Verified Buyer
The Innovate Milano Plus Foldtech TV Stand is very classy and easy to assemble. The glass shelves are adjustable. I hung the tv on the wall with no wire exposure.
good looking
Kellie from Burke, VA– Verified Buyer
Assembly was fairly straight forward and the quality of the TV stand is pretty good. The glass is placed on top of the frame with little dots that stick onto it. Having young kids I was a little worried about this, however they stay in place very well. We have the stand to hold a TV underneath a cabinet and it fits perfect.
Gopod TV stand, has been holding my heavy 55" plasma for over a year
Timothy from Sanford, FL– Verified Buyer
It's not the sturdiest tv stand, not great quality either, it cost very little and can hold up to a 100lb tv (I wouldn't go any higher no matter what it's rated for. The swivel is great, the shelves more than adequate to hold my receiver, components, and center speaker. If it looks like what you want (color, shelf size) and you are on a limited budget then this is a good stand.
Great quality
Anne from Columbia, MO– Verified Buyer
This tv stand is quite sturdy. Assembly was straightforward, using the included instructions and parts. I particularly appreciated the clear labelling on the parts. The stand fits in our living room perfectly and I really like having our tv up a bit higher.

Robin from Fort Washington, MD– Verified Buyer
It was delivery right on time and in great condition. Although I didn't assembly the TV Stand it appeared to be easy. The television I have on the stand is a 32" but it looks so small I think I need to invest in getting a larger TV.
Good Product, but showed up damaged

This is a very nice product, but the packaging is below par. Shipped to my house with a couple nicks.

Astros report: Rookie-heavy rotation shows signs of growth
Blown saves, poor defense and an inconsistent offense are overshadowing improvement from the Astros' starting pitchers. The club still holds the worst team ERA (4.94) in MLB, and starters possess a 4.70 mark, which tops only Minnesota and Toronto. But during the Astros' last 11 games, starters have combined for a 3.69 ERA while recording […] [Read More]
First pitch: Villar still out for Astros; Rangers eye seventh straight win
The Rangers can take a four-game series against the Astros with a victory Sunday during a 1:10 p.m. contest at Minute Maid Park. The Astros blew saves during the initial two games of the set, recording No. 21 Saturday in a 5-4 loss. Lefthander Dallas Keuchel (5-6, 4.96 ERA) takes the mound for the Astros, […] [Read More]
Nolan Ryan foresees no changes in role with Rangers, for now
The Rangers' spring training was dominated by dramatic Nolan Ryan news, with many believing the organization's CEO would leave the franchise and some hinting Ryan could rejoin the Astros in a front-office role. More than four months into the regular season, a revamped Rangers squad entered Saturday 16 games above .500 with another playoff appearance […] [Read More]
Dilemma in bullpen has no easy answers for Astros
It took 114 games for the 2013 Astros to bottom out. When five relievers, including four rookies, took the mound Friday during the eighth inning of a 9-5 loss to the Rangers, the challenges of evaluating recent minor league talent at the major league level and running a stripped-down professional operation at the same time […] [Read More]
Another blown save leads to another Astros loss to the Rangers
Moments after a "Let's go Rangers" chant broke out Saturday evening at Minute Maid Park, the Astros' already upside-down season sunk a little lower. What appeared to be a smooth tagout of Alex Rios at home plate during a 4-4 game in the eighth inning suddenly turned into a one-run Rangers lead, when Astros catcher […] [Read More]
First pitch: Astros' Peacock returns to mound; Rangers add Rios
Brad Peacock follows up the best start of his pro career when the Astros host the Rangers during a 6:10 p.m. American League West matchup Saturday at Minute Maid Park.

Astros prospect George Springer reaches 30-30 club
While the Astros continually fail at the major-league level, top prospect George Springer continues to excel in the minors. Springer, 23, hit his 30th combined homer this season at the Class AAA and AA levels during Oklahoma City's 6-4 victory against Las Vegas on Friday. The 6-foot-3, 200-pound center fielder has hit 11 home runs […] [Read More]
Astros' woes continue as Rangers strike late to take first game of series
In four simple words, Bo Porter summed it all up. The blown saves and torched games. The late-inning giveaways and nightly throwaways.

First pitch: Rangers return to Houston tied for first in AL West
The Astros' in-state rival is visiting Minute Maid Park for a four-game series. The Rangers are 7-2 against the Astros this season heading into a 7:10 p.m. American League West contest Friday. Veteran lefthander Erik Bedard (3-8, 4.29 ERA) faces Rangers righty Matt Garza, who's 1-1 with a 2.82 ERA since being acquired in a […] [Read More]
Astros report: Villar to return in upcoming series with Rangers

Seven early spring tornadoes hit near Tulsa, in Moore and SW Oklahoma City, and in AR on Wednesday, March 25th. One person was killed and several injured when a tornado destroyed 60 mobile homes in Sand Springs near Tulsa. Some homes in Moore were damaged in the same area hit by the massive 2013 tornado. MNA Disaster Response checked with disaster response coordinators in PCA churches across OK; no damage has been reported. Right now, we don't see the need for outside assistance but we will continue to monitor the situation.

Reference is made to and commonly assigned U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/378,550 filed Mar. 17, 2006 entitled �WIRELESS SPEECH RECOGNITION,� the content of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
While great progress has been made in the development of communication systems, only recently with the advent of Bluetooth and similar open specification technologies have developers been given the freedom to design, short range, wireless devices that can connect to a variety of different networks and systems while offering worldwide compatibility. One type of device resulting from the development of these technologies is a wireless headset that can connect to any similarly enabled device or system. When used with a cellular phone, for example, that is enabled/adapted for use with one of these technologies (for example, Bluetooth), the user of such a headset is able to talk freely, unencumbered by wires or cables, while taking advantage of the many benefits of the cellular phone. However, current wireless headsets provide very limited, if any, speech recognition functionality, although speech recognition is a natural interface for such wireless devices.
The discussion above is merely provided for general background information and is not intended to be used as an aid in determining the scope of the claimed subject matter.
This Summary is provided to introduce a selection of concepts in a simplified form that are further described below in the Detailed Description. This Summary is not intended to identify key features or essential features of the claimed subject matter, nor is it intended to be used as an aid in determining the scope of the claimed subject matter. The claimed subject matter is not limited to implementations that solve any or all disadvantages noted in the background.
The present embodiments relate to a method of interacting with a speech recognition (SR)-enabled personal computer (PC). In embodiments of the method, a programmable user SR profile is transferred from a wireless-enabled device to the SR-enabled PC. Interaction with an SR application, on the SR-enabled PC, is carried out by transmitting speech signals wirelessly to the SR-enabled PC. The transmitted speech signals are recognized with the help of the transferred programmable user SR profile.
The present embodiments deal with portable systems that enable users to wirelessly interact via voice with devices/environments that have speech recognition (SR) capabilities. However, before describing the present embodiments in greater detail, one illustrative environment with which the present embodiments can interact will be described.
The present embodiments can interact with numerous other general purpose or special purpose computing system environments or configurations. Examples of well-known computing systems, environments, and/or configurations that may be suitable for interaction with the present embodiments include, but are not limited to, desktop personal computers (PCs), server computers, hand-held or laptop PCs, multiprocessor systems, microprocessor-based systems, set top boxes, programmable consumer electronics, network PCs, minicomputers, mainframe computers, telephony systems, distributed computing environments that include any of the above systems or devices, and the like.
With reference to
Computer 110 typically includes a variety of computer readable media. Computer readable media can be any available media that can be accessed by computer 110 and includes both volatile and nonvolatile media, removable and non-removable media. By way of example, and not limitation, computer readable media may comprise computer storage media and communication media. Computer storage media includes both volatile and nonvolatile, removable and non-removable media implemented in any method or technology for storage of information such as computer readable instructions, data structures, program modules or other data. Computer storage media includes, but is not limited to, RAM, ROM, EEPROM, flash memory or other memory technology, CD-ROM, digital versatile disks (DVD) or other optical disk storage, magnetic cassettes, magnetic tape, magnetic disk storage or other magnetic storage devices, or any other medium which can be used to store the desired information and which can be accessed by computer 110. Communication media typically embodies computer readable instructions, data structures, program modules or other data in a modulated data signal such as a carrier wave or other transport mechanism and includes any information delivery media. The term �modulated data signal� means a signal that has one or more of its characteristics set or changed in such a manner as to encode information in the signal. By way of example, and not limitation, communication media includes wired media such as a wired network or direct-wired connection, and wireless media such as acoustic, RF, infrared and other wireless media. Combinations of any of the above should also be included within the scope of computer readable media.
The system memory 130 includes computer storage media in the form of volatile and/or nonvolatile memory such as read only memory (ROM) 131 and random access memory (RAM) 132. A basic input/output system 133 (BIOS), containing the basic routines that help to transfer information between elements within computer 110, such as during start-up, is typically stored in ROM 131. RAM 132 typically contains data and/or program modules that are immediately accessible to and/or presently being operated on by processing unit 120. By way of example, and not limitation,
The computer 110 may also include other removable/non-removable volatile/nonvolatile computer storage media. By way of example only,
The drives and their associated computer storage media discussed above and illustrated in
A user may enter commands and information into the computer 110 through input devices such as a keyboard 162, a microphone 163, and a pointing device 161, such as a mouse, trackball or touch pad. Other input devices (not shown) may include a joystick, game pad, satellite dish, scanner, or the like. These and other input devices are often connected to the processing unit 120 through a user input interface 160 that is coupled to the system bus, but may be connected by other interface and bus structures, such as a parallel port, game port or a universal serial bus (USB). A monitor 191 or other type of display device is also connected to the system bus 121 via an interface, such as a video interface 190. In addition to the monitor, computers may also include other peripheral output devices such as speakers 197 and printer 196, which may be connected through an output peripheral interface 195.
The computer 110 is operated in a networked environment using logical connections to one or more remote computers, such as a remote computer 180. The remote computer 180 may be a desktop PC, a laptop PC, a hand-held device, a server, a router, a network PC, a peer device or other common network node, and typically includes many or all of the elements described above relative to the computer 110. The logical connections depicted in
When used in a LAN networking environment, the computer 110 is connected to the LAN 171 through a network interface or adapter 170. When used in a WAN networking environment, the computer 110 typically includes a modem 172 or other means for establishing communications over the WAN 173, such as the Internet. The modem 172, which may be internal or external, may be connected to the system bus 121 via the user input interface 160, or other appropriate mechanism. In a networked environment, program modules depicted relative to the computer 110, or portions thereof, may be stored in the remote memory storage device. By way of example, and not limitation,
It should be noted that
In some of the present embodiments, such as the embodiments shown in
In general, a SR-enabled PC (such as 214), with which system 200 can communicate, can utilize the programmable user SR profile in memory 206 to provide relatively accurate recognition of speech signals that are wirelessly transmitted from system 200. Synchronization of the programmable user SR profile with the SR-enabled PC can be accomplished with the help of software that is capable of automatically carrying out the synchronization. This software can be included in memory 206 along with the programmable user speech profile. In some of the present embodiments, memory 206 is non-volatile and therefore its contents are not lost when system 200 is turned off. Details of more specific embodiments of system 200 are provided below in connection with
As can be seen in
In general, system 300 enables a user to wirelessly interact via voice with any compatible SR-enabled PC (such as 306). System 300 includes a number of stored resources that provide for such interaction. In addition to the user SR profile, stored resources include drivers that provide an interface between a PC and system 300, secure user data and resources, �voice in/voice out� applications (VUI) that can provide, for example, real-time driving directions, meetings notifications, natural assistance and/or interactions with devices/appliances such as home entertainment centers, etc. Different methods of using headset 302 and wireless adapter 304 to provide a SR �portable user experience� are described below.
In one method of using system 300, a first time user can log in to a desktop PC, for example, and plug connector 307 of wireless adapter 304 into the PC's USB port (or any other suitable computer port/slot). If suitably configured, the PC automatically detects headset 302 and launches a SR configuration application for a first time user experience. The user can now configure SR settings and can proceed to take an interactive tutorial. A programmable user speech recognition profile that includes results from the interactive tutorial and the chosen SR settings is produced. A copy of the programmable SR profile is stored in memory 206. It should be noted that programmable user SR profile may be blank (or may include an initial speech profile which is tuned for a particular embodiment of headset 302 by any speaker) before first use of system 300. After the interactive tutorial, the user is ready to carry out relatively complex tasks, such as word processing, using SR.
For example, the user can enable SR by pressing SR on/off button 212, on headset 302, and then utter �Open Word Processing Software,� for example. In response, a new document window is opened on the PC. The user can then begin dictating words, which get inserted into the document. The user can disable SR at any time by pressing SR on/off button 212 on headset 302. Of course, the user can re-enable SR by pressing the same button. The user can save a draft document in memory 206 and then remove adapter 304 from the computer port of the desktop PC. It should be noted that the programmable user SR profile adjusts to the manner in which the user pronounces words and therefore memory 206 can be updated with a current copy of the programmable user SR profile when the draft document is saved in memory 206, for example.
At a later time, the user can plug wireless adapter 304 into a computer port (for example, a USB port or any other suitable port currently known or developed in future) of a SR-enabled laptop PC, for example, and turn wireless headset 302 on. A SR user interface launches and confirms that SR is enabled. This is followed by a transfer of the programmable user SR profile to the laptop PC. The user can then press SR on/off button 212 on headset 302 and substantially immediately begin editing the draft document.
In another method of using system 300, a user can wear headset 302, turn it on, and communicate with a compatible cellular telephone and/or a compatible automobile computer.
For example, when using headset 302 with a �smart� cellular telephone, the user can press button 212 and say �Where's my next meeting?,� for example. The cellular telephone can respond, through output transducer 204 of headset 302, �Your next meeting is at campus number 1, Building 17, office 3075,� for example.
When the user's automobile is started, the cellular telephone and headset 302 can automatically establish a network connection with the automobile's central computer via a wireless hub (for example, a Bluetooth hub). The wireless hub can be built into wireless adapter 302. The user can be notified of a successful connection with the automobile's central computer via a recognizable herald, which the user can hear through output transducer 204 of headset 302.
To customize a driving experience, the user can say, for example, �Start listening. Set the temperature to 70 degrees and tune into WXYZ.� In response, the automobile's temperature and radio settings can substantially immediately be adjusted. If the cellular telephone has traffic monitoring software, the user can begin interacting with it by saying, for example, �Start listening. How's traffic on route 520?� Traffic updates can then be provided to the user from the cellular telephone through output transducer 204 of headset 302.
If the user has to make a call to inform a superior of a delay caused by traffic, for example, the automobile radio's volume is muted as soon as the call goes through. Once the conversation is completed, the automobile radio's volume setting is automatically restored to its original state.
In general, system 300 provides with an un-tethered manner of interacting with several different compatible devices. Other embodiments of the portable wireless-enabled system that operate in a manner similar to system 300 are described below in connection with
In general, the above-described portable wireless systems provide users with a hands-free method for interacting with compatible devices. The systems provide users with an un-tethered manner of interacting with SR applications. Further, as discussed above, the present embodiments provide users with an instantaneous and intuitive manner of launching, setting up, learning, using, synchronizing, and porting their SR user experience to any compatible device.
Although the subject matter has been described in language specific to structural features and/or methodological acts, it is to be understood that the subject matter defined in the appended claims is not necessarily limited to the specific features or acts described above. Rather, the specific features and acts described above are disclosed as example forms of implementing the claims. Although the embodiments of

Her History in FHM's 100 Sexiest Women
This dinky brunette from The O.C. has a big love for My Little Pony toys. So now you know how to step up from 'stalker' to 'thoughtful gift giver'.
She has a much lauded sex scene with Zac Braff in The Last Kiss. In case you wanted to know.
Bilson is scared of Beagles because one bit her upper lip when she was very young.
Was injured in a car crash at 14, meaning she sometimes gets memory loss
There's no better way to sign up millions of extra fans than by playing the role of 'really cute girl with a soft spot for geeky guys'.
Los Angeles born Rachel Bilson's character from The O.C., Summer Roberts, did just that, and arguably better than it's ever been done before. But it wasn't just the geeks who noticed. Everyone did.
Howard Stern called her "the hottest chick in Hollywood". Co-star Adam Brody asked her out and bought her a bulldog. We listed her as the 16th Sexiest Woman in the World in 2008.
To hammer home the point that she digs a guy who knows his way around a D&D board, Rachel Bilson jumped into a relationship with Jedi boy Hayden Christensen after they filmed the film Jumper. They pair have had an on, off, on again, engaged, off, on again, we think, relationship for some time, but we bet they're really happy.
Rachel Bilson has most recently been in Hart of Dixie, one of the glossy American TV series that usually make their way over here at some point. In Dixie, Rachel Bilson plays Dr. Zoe Hart, a sassy New York cardio thoracic surgeon, who finds herself working at a small medical practice in Alabama. Some people don't like her, some people do. Some fancy her. It's a bit like like Doc Martin, but only really in that both feature doctors. And Rachel Bilson is infinitely more palatable to look at than Martin Clunes.
In How I Met Your Mother
That means bikinis
She's always been lovely. Now she's lovely and single
InStyle is the magazine yeah!
Rachel Bilson sex scene is a bit of a let down
That guy from Scrubs is feeling, like, pensive.

Induction - maximum pan size?
I was looking through the Miele manual to get a sense of how the cooktops work, and for each hob, they specify a minimum and maximum pan size. I'm not much worried about the minimum, but I am concerned that the maximum pan size would limit my ability to shuffle pots around on the cooktop while I'm working.
Has anyone encountered a problem like this? If you put a large pot on a small-ish hob, does performance drop off?
I saw this only after I responded to a similar question at the end of the other thread on "Induction Question."
I'll just summarize. You can move large pans onto small hobs just as you can on any other kind of stove. And, you will have the same kinds of considerations that you have when putting a large pan on a small burner or any other kind of stove. Obviously, a small burner puts out less heat that a large one, so performance drops off in that sense.
You should be able to avoid one problem that occurs with oversize pans on radiant smoothtops, Oversize pans on smoothtop radiant burners can confuse the sensors that regulate heat cycling and result in large pans not being able to boil water or result in taking an extremely long time to bring water to a boil. Induction does not use those kinds of sensors.
See this link for a more detailed recent disucssion of this subject:
No need to apologize. Also, I think I posted the same link twice when I meant to have a link to another thread on a similar question. I meant to send you to the one below. See if it has answers for your questions. if it does not, it should at least help narrow things down.
Here is a link that might be useful: Using two 11 inch pans on induction
There is an issue on some units of a hot pan overlapping under-surface electronics and overheating them. Use of silicone pads to "air-gap" the pan from the surface MIGHT extend the safe diameter in these cases. It likely depends on what temperature one runs the pan base at. Wokking is a lot hotter than frying eggs.
Also note that the diameter bounds specified for hobs is the flat bottom surface of the pan, and not the wider diameter at the top of the pan.

As an Irishman the result could not have been better and under Schmitt there is alway a plan to get the result. I have to say though, right from the olf against the Baa Baa's the Aussies have played the most entertaining brand of Rugby in these Autumn Internationals. Two unbelievable tries (even if one wasn't, it deserved to be). I will be following Ireland in the RWC, but should they exit, we'll I might turn Yellow.

Close game. Might have been different without the sloppy intercept try. Wales have the talent, speed, bulk, with the exception of a decent 10 and tactics (Gatland). If the latter two were sorted prior to WC, I think they could be contender.

We are seeing a bit of the end of season European fatigue in this first performance from Ireland,that and a fair few younger players getting a run. I do think Schmitt will continue to experiment and give younger players some experience before World Cup, so result should be second to performance.. I do share the same concern as others about Luke Marshall. It almost seems like every match now. »

Canstar Community News - ONLINE EDITION
Don't look down
Jenn Lusby, account executive for Canstar Community News, was one of the brave souls who rappelled 200 feet down the 17-storey RBC Building at 220 Portage Ave. on Aug. 15 for the 2013 Easter Seals Drop Zone fundraising event. Lusby, seen dressed as Mario of Super Mario Bros., raised $2,000 toward the $3,500 brought in by her team 'J2,' with teammate Jennifer Sutherland. This year's Drop Zone was projected to raise a total of $150,000. The money raised from the event will go toward vital programs and services that help more than 47,000 children, youth and adults with disabilities in Manitoba.

Friday Fun day in Cognac
... to take a tour of this factory, however you can
only make reservations through the tourist office and the tourist office was
closed for renovations. Apparently Dana and I chose the wrong weekend to go
exploring in Cognac.
Putting the disappointment aside, Cognac had a very
interesting downtown area. Again, this was a place where only pedestrians could
walk. It was cobble stones and there were some very cute, typical French buildings
with ...
And so the weekend travelling has begun. Even if it was a nice little short day trip to Saintes. Saintes is about a half hour train ride South East from Rochefort, it is also found along the Charente….the river that Rochefort is on. BUT, in Saintes, the water is a nice bluey green colour, rather than the muddy brown colour we have in Rochefort. If it wasn't such a gloomy, misty day it would have been much ...
Bordeaux to St Porchaire
... and in one town the musty smell of wine was overpowering. Interestingly too, the shops in this area -supermarkets etc, still shut at lunchtime. David had a wander around the town to size up the boulangeries in the town. Only three camping cars ...
Day 26 - Point de Garve
... stop at a Tabac with plastic cups (see photo) and then early lunch stop to dry tents before the rains came in again. In the event we keep dry and a bit sunny through this afternoon. This evening we are back to wild camping but we're not sure when Pat's going in for a swim. We'll go to sleep with the sound of the sea. Tomorrow it's over the ferry and northward from Royan. Bon ...
Day 25 - pauillac
... we rode 30 miles through the Medoc region before arriving at our campsite (our 3rd in 3 days). A first for our trip was a puncture this afternoon. A Big Bang and split tyre. Now we are eating supper before this evenings forecast rain! Fingers crossed. Sleep well, Bon Muir PS.

Height to chop of tops of tall ornamental grasses.
albert_135(Sunset 2 or 3)May 12, 2011
I noticed all over town the professional landscapers have chopped of the top of ornamental grasses about a foot above the ground. The new green growth is just now taller than the old dead growth.
How is it determined how high above the ground to chop off last years growth?
It's probably personal preference. I prefer to cut them shorter, about 3" or less, but it really doesn't matter to the grass. One of the benefits of cutting them shorter is the fact it enables you to better clean out the top of the crown. A thick accumulation of rotting leaves and such can lead to crown rot, and kill the grass. If you cut them shorter, you can easily rake out the gunk.

" Peonies won't bloom "
hollyhocker_123(6)August 28, 2012
I posted this question. In the cottage section. The responses did,t help. My peony is about 13. It used to have lots of blooms. The last two years zilch. It gets morning sun. Then part sun. What should I do!
calistoga_al ca 15 usda 9
Almost every garden gets less sun as the trees mature. Thirteen years could mean quite a change in the sun on your peony. It also is possible that the soil is now higher on the roots and is preventing the blooming. This fall I would dig and divide it, replant divisions at the right level where I am sure of enough sun.
