All the streets in zone 2 are paved with a smooth water stone pulled form the shore of the lake. Some of the nicer houses have gutters to wash the refuse from the streets down to the harbor, but the lower houses have no such luck at having a free service such as this to clean their streets.
Houses vary from size to size, the smaller houses are closer to the warehouse and waterfront districts in zone 1. With the nicer and much larger houses being toward the better districts of zone 3. These usually house richer merchants or guild officials.
All the streets in zone 1 have been paved with red brick cobble stone. The rain gutters lead down to the dockside and the harbor where the dirt and refuse is washed away by rain and by a Service crew designated by those in the Civic District. Most of the cleaning duties are done at night when the streets are devoid of travelers. Different service crews handle different zones. One is designated for each zone as the duties required to keep up the districts and zones different slightly per zone.
Star lake is the city in which Blackrose Academy is built on. The city was originally a small spot on the way to the school but has grown into a vast city sprawling acorss the island like a weed. The city has been divided into four Zones, each one housing the different districts of the city itself.
If it was not for the city's stance on tradition (and prohibitively heavy taxes on the buying or selling of property outside one's family) these homes would of been abandoned or been a slum. However the founding trading families built homes here decades ago and have adapted in a fine fashion since then.
The Antioch river is slow and broad in most places. Due to some quirks of biome geography, the best place for riverside docks between the headlands and the sea is Antioch. Given the biome's convient access to a number of other biomes (and paths to said biomes), it is only natural that a trade city with a dock would thrive here.
Old Town is anything but old and stuffy. Though the city is trying to be respectable, at its roots, it is as rough and tumble as they came in the day. You can see what the city was like "in the day" by strolling Old Town by waterfront.
If thrown into a moat or a ditch, they react with water to make an area of ground a foot wide and solid enough to walk on rise from the bottom. If eaten-well, the body of the one who ate one of them is a real mess. Used to storm moats and forge rivers, streams and ditches. Must be kept dry until used.

'The Inbetweeners' To Return For Surprise Fourth Series
Picture: James Buckley The Inbetweeners Yearbook - book signing at Waterstone's in Piccadilly London, England - 29.09.11
The hit Channel 4 comedy The Inbetweeners will be returning to TV for a surprise fourth series. The Daily Star revealed today (April 17, 2012) that James Buckley (who plays the role of Jay Cartwright) let the news slip that the four lads will return for more outrageous adventures, in a series set when the boys are either in college or working.
There will be a serious shock in store for fans of the comedy show, though, as it appears that one of the four main characters is going to be killed off. James wouldn't be drawn into revealing exactly who that would be, but either Jay, Simon, Will or Neil are going to come to an unfortunate end in this fourth series, it would seem. "We have to see what happens. Maybe one of them dies and the other three have to join up for the funeral," he said whilst talking about the new show on a trip to the USA.
Damon Beesley and Iain Morris, who created the show, have previously indicated that they had finished with the characters that became so popular over the last three series. However, the success of the Inbetweeners movie forced them to have a rethink about bringing the boys back to the small screen. The movie, released last year was filmed on a budget of 3.5 million and raked in an impressive 45 million at the box office.

I never won a Nobel Peace Prize.
Paw Prints: Writings of the maddog
I woke up on the morning of October 9th to find that President Obama had won the Nobel Peace Prize.
There was a lot of discussion about whether President Obama had "earned" the honor or not, and a lot of discussion about how the Nobel Peace Prize is not always for what you have done, but encouraging you to keep going in what you are doing.
As I read his acceptance speech, I thought about Free and Open Source Software, and applied parts of his speech to my favorite subject.
"Let me be clear, I do not view it as a recognition of my own accomplishments"
A lot of people have said to me, "Thank you for what you do for Free Software". I tell them that I was someone who was in a particular place at a particular time. I did what I thought needed doing, and what I had skills to do.
I also tell them that if they want to see the most important person in Free Software, all they have to do is look in the mirror....for everyone can be important to Free Software...everyone can contribute in some way.
"men and women who've inspired me and inspired the entire world"
Certainly I have been inspired by some of the great computer people of all time, most of whom I have been lucky enough to meet and have discussions. Rear Admiral Grace Murray Hopper, Maurice Wilkes, Douglas McIlroy, Ken Thompson, Dennis Ritchie....the list goes on and on.
There are present-day heros too...and each person working into the night trying to get that one nasty bug fixed in a piece of Free Software is one of those heroes. The person who translates a piece of documentation so some other person can use that program is a hero. The person who sets up a user group meeting, so others can find out about Free Software and share it. All of these are "heroes" to me.
"this prize reflects the kind of world that those men and women and all Americans want to build"
A world of collaboration, where people build, standing on the shoulders of those who have gone before....not "re-inventing the wheel" or having to spend time "programing around" some software patent. The Freedom to see how a program works, and to try to make it better.
"it's also been used as a means to give momentum to a set of causes."
President Obama goes on to list a number of causes, of which we are all probably familiar, but several of them stood out for me:
- accept responsibility for transforming the way we use energy
- the ability to get an education and make a decent living
- global economic crisis
These are things that I think Free Software can help and I will try to help solve them with Free Software.
"I know these challenges can be met, so long as it's recognized that they will not be met by one person or one nation alone. This award is not simply about the efforts of my administration; it's about the courageous efforts of people around the world. And that's why this award must be shared with everyone who strives for justice and dignity."
I believe that it takes the entire Free Software community to meet the challenges of today. Of course we can not solve the world's problems by ourselves, but the philosophy of collaboration nurtured by Free Software is spreading, and will be key to solving these problems.
Perhaps some day there will be the "Free Software Peace Prize".
Carpe Diem!
Those 'Economists'.."If anything, a Nobel Prize should have gone to the few awake economists (I can't recall any name right now) who warned two or three years back of the impending economic crisis and who of course were not listened to."
01. Peter Schiff
02. Ron Paul (not necessarily and Economist - but could be considered one)
03. and many other "Austrian" economists.
I never won a Nobel Peace Prize.Me neither, I never won the Nobel Prize. Oh well. To tell you the truth, I don't think someone like Barak Obama deserves such a prize. His discourse was fine and dandy, but it's just that, a discourse. Fundamentally the American Administration is pursuing what it has always done: imposing its own view of democracy by any means necessary, including war, for its own benefit. And when I look at the bailouts handed out to the American banks and the auto industry I don't see it as paving the way to a more sustainable and fair world order.
If anything, a Nobel Prize should have gone to the few awake economists (I can't recall any name right now) who warned two or three years back of the impending economic crisis and who of course were not listened to.
You write: "I believe that it takes the entire Free Software community to meet the challenges of today. Of course we can not solve the world's problems by ourselves, but the philosophy of collaboration nurtured by Free Software is spreading, and will be key to solving these problems."
Man, I agree with you full pin.

Peppers no growth
I'm just a little concerned, its been just about a month here after i transplanted my seedlings (diff types of peppers and tomatoes) and havent seen much growth. Especially my cayenne and jalapeno's. The seedlings are about 6 inches still, and hardly any movement the last week. The weather has also been great last few days.
I had similar issues last year and ended up basically with dying peppers that resulted in no fruits or growth.
This year i rotated with new appropriate soil in my planters, added fertilizier, water appropriately. added mulch. Figured i have been doing every thing right so far, but i dont want to end up like last year with no peppers. Am i being paranoid as a new gardner? will they bounce back? should i replace the seedlings that arent growing while early in season stiil? i dont want another season like last
Two years ago i had 2 cayanne plants in the smallest box and they grew beautifully. Last year expanded to very big outdoor space for plenty of plants and saw terrible results, and seeing not much results (except tomato) so far this season
would appreciate any help or advice.
I would assume it has something to do with temperature outside. If the few first weeks were not very warm that could slow growth down. Otherwise it could be your soil. Search your zone on google and find out what type of soil you have. That could maybe help you out. Good luck!
I doubt it's the soil. Peppers don't NEED incredibly rich soil.
My guess would be temps also. Hard to believe with a good part of the country having a late winter that it was appropriate for you to plant them early. I'm in zone 10 and I usually don't put mine in the ground until the beginning of April.
I'm all about mulching, but not too early. For now, pull the mulch back so that soil can warm up some around the root zones.
Good luck.
This post was edited by woohooman on Mon, May 5, 14 at 12:55
Thanks, I'll pull back some of the mulch, maybe get some more warmth there.
I planted the pepper seedlings maybe around april 10th, we had no more frost, temps maybe dipped in the mid 40s first week or so at night, but well above since then. Just didnt want the same thing happening again like last year where i got nothing from the pepper plants, this is why i am being cautious, or over-thinking it at this point i suppose. I will try to be more patient, hopefully things will start progress with increased temps. May post pics as well later on
I live just across the river from you in Maryland, mdy. It has been a hard year for peppers for me and many others because of the cold. It has definitely been too cold to put out pepper seedlings and get much from them all month. This is the season to be hardening the peppers off, not putting them into raised beds yet. Not that they will die, just that it is not an optimal time yet. Put-in-ground time is almost here though,
Since they are in raised beds early, I would recommend leaving the mulch over their rooms. That will help them stay warmer at night much the way a blanket helps keep you warm at night.

2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer • 96,500 miles
My car has been blowing a lot of white smoke/exhaust from the muffler every time I start it up. Doesnt matter if it is first start of the day or not. After a couple of this my check engine light came on. I called onstar for a diagnostic and the advisor said the problem was an abnormal problem with the oil pressure. Any ideas on what I am looking at when I take it in? The car isnt overheating or anything. It doesnt smoke when I accelerate. Once I start to drive the exhaust dissaptes. Thanks

(JOE)Parlor Palms, Arrowheads, Scheffs, Pothos..? (Joe)
This thread is aimed at Joe bu of course anyone can chime in as I love hearing what others have to say about a situation.
First I want to say, I have the itch for more plants already. Didnt take long did it? However, I dont particularly have the room or the proper onditions to venture out of what I already have. So, I will do the smart thing and wait. Unless I find a plant that will fit into our current conditions and will fit in the smaller space I have avaiable.
I also dont have a favorite plant as of yet. If I had to rank what I had so far, my Scheff,philodendron ( i think) peace and rubber are at the top of the list and the palm is a little on the low end of the list. The arrowhead is also high but that is because she is being finiky and I am trying to keep her going.
So as far as parlor palm goes, I a not sure the repot is sticking well with her. She was seperated into two different pots as there were two plants in one pot and it was crowded. I have pulled ALOT of stems? strands rigt up out of the soil as they were dead and not holding onto anything. I am not sure this is root rot because when I cleaned her off I dont remember seeing anything that resembled brown, slimy roots. They seemed to be more fine and stringy, from what I remember. I should have taken pictures. So I dont know what she is going to do now. I guess time will tell.
My arrowhead has had yellowing leaves from time to time on the bottom leaves. From what I have heard ppl say and what my book said, this can be common...or something to do with leaf maturity??? Now I will say the repot for her was a litte scarey, the roots were browning but not slimy. I repotted it anyway because I just had a feeling she still had lfe in her as there is or was 5 new growths coming up. They are growing by the day. But I also just cut 4 leaves from her in the past week.
My scheff is one of my favs because it was my first plant and she is doing so well. Recently though, in the last week, I have had leaf drop and in some cases total stem drop. Now I did read this is common as the plant grows...? True? She was having new shoots frequently but they have slowed down and the new ones coming up are taking a long time to grow. I assume because of winter coming?? (which leads me to a different qestion for a new thread) (you all love my questions huh) Im sorry. :(
Finally Joe, I think my favorite by a leaf or two is the new philodendron. I am highly confused on if it is al philo or pothos. The encylopedia says they are very very closely related but it would still be nice to know. I would like to understand the new growth on him. So a new leaf comes out of the vine and seems to have a 'covering' on it...which eventually turns brown and falls off??? What is this and what purpose does it serve. It only bothers me slightly because it looks like dead stuff or dying stuff on the plant...
Thats all. I do have two more threads I would like to post regarding the season change that I have been meaning to, but I dont get the time I would like on GW till after the kiddos are in bed and I am relaxing with the hubby before bed. I read everyones responses though on my phone through my email. Just takes me longer to respond.
G'night all. Love it here.
I have a 2 sheff's as of today, and 1 parlor palm, and a couple pothos. The parlor palm hasnt been any problem for me. I am surprised. I live in a northern climate (NEPA)with the heat on a good portion of the year. Its very dry in my house in the winter. I had the sheff for 5 years then it went to another home. It was just returned to me last week.The other one I just bought today. They are a goregous plant. My mistake was I didnt know about pruning. NOW I KNOW!! LOL My pothos get a little ratty during the winter months. A Pothos has yellow on the leaves, phila is dark green. I believe that is the difference.
I have to look up the arrowhead, I am not sure what they are. I do have a few plants that I don't know what they are.
hey Tiff!
oh wow you like 'called-me-out' lolo
Dont hate me, but earlier this afternoon, after going out for brunch, i stopped by HomeDepot (its righ nxt door like, so i 'had' to lol) and snagged a little Jade, and some type of beautiful purple succulent,,, but Just those two, i mean they had Lots more! lol
I havent had a palm in years, but kinda remember them being a leetle funny?
i 'thought' they said a little more humdity, but as i recall (maybe?) just an evenly moist-ish soil,,? but i wouldnt rely on that, my memories bout as long as.. well n/m lol
Tiff been meaning to ask, can you define your new gritty mix, did you use turface, granit, and bark? specifically? any substitutes??
I hafta admit, i havent had a chance to catch up on all your posts just yet, so youlll have to fogive me,, and honestly the gritty mix is fairly new to me as well,, i gotta LOTTA repottin to do. :x
Im just getting used to how it holds moisure, particularly underneath (where its harder to check) the weight difference is significant, and thats what im used to going by,,,
Im also wondering how/if it will 'ball-up' once roots start forming into it,,,
If i go to repot in a year, two, whatever, will it just all fall apart like im imagining??
As far as the arrowhead (Nephtytus?) i actually have (2) but kinda just got them recently, same original soil and container,, but they each have had several yellowing 'leaves' which end up falling (or i usually pull them) off. In all fairness, i ahvent found a 'permanent' low/medium light position for them yet, so theyve been moved around a lot while everything around here manuevers for an appropriate spot,,, no plant really likes that (being moved constantly)(i think).
hmm, luv/hate thing w/me, lol
i luv them, they dislike me (i think) as i mentioned (on 'my' thread)
ive two that were seriously water-logged, one's surviving, showing promis, the other,, not so sure about, but theyve All (even the healthy, non-problematic ones) lost leaves and stems even, they seem to 'tolerate' lower light levels, if you can kinda 'match' the watering level to that, if that makes any sense to ya,,
ahhh the Philo, your really gonna hate me now, and i wanted to mention this on your other thread... (man, you got a BUNCH of threads here Tiff!) lol
but i also got one of those about a week? back, $2.75 at walmart, how could i resist? right? its like a silver variegated one, kinda cute! even tho i'd really just as soon have had a regular ol Scandens, i just cant seem to find one around here,, weird,,
hmm i 'think' their in the same family as Pothos, i better let someone else chime in there
just dont let em get too dry, dry between waterings, but some humidity (like take her in the shower w/ya on occasion maybe?) hubby will luv that lol
i always luv'd that they were easy to propagate (in water) :)
oh man youve got me ramblin here! lol
i was actually watchin Avatar (for like the 4th time lol) and came in to shut-er-down, I'll peek back tomm,, w/(better~?) pics,,, and Tiff (your call) but, i could never feel bad spending a cpl dollars on a plant if it makes me happy, just sayin, keep it in check, but why be a martyr~? im fortunate (in Many ways, Blessed even) i live within a a city block of Goodwill, and Rehabitat~ (large thrift stores) i got a handful of pots over the weekend, some for like a dime each! If your babies eat That much ya cant afford a dime for... oh shoot im goin on again, lol hey, smootch the boogers for me. Nite kiddo. :)
hey gorgeous Syng there Polly! any idea how old? :)
Ah, Syngonium, that's what arrow head is! Lovely plant, had one years ago. I love how the leaves change shape as the plant matures. So want another!
As for the parlour palm, is this a Dypsis, Howea or Chamaedorea?
Ive had all three over the years, Dypsis was my fave, but it got too big sadly.
Chamaedorea is the most common over here, often sold small in mixed arrangements, usually Mothers Day and such. I do know that palms don't like root disturbance and that repotting can be a tricky affair. I usually leave the roots intact to be on the safe side.
Silentsurfer, yea Philos, Pothos, Scindapus and Syngonium are all in the Arum family (Araceae), same as Swiss Cheese Plant.
Out of those Ive only had monstera and Syngonium. Never fancied a pothos as you guys call em as Im not keen on hanging plants.
Surfer,Hmm. my syngonium podophyllum is maybe 5-6 years old. Sometimes it dies back in the winter and then grows out again. They grow like weeds and are easy to propagate. One year when we lived in our other house I put it on the deck facing west. IT turned a beautiful reddish. I entered it into a flower show and got a blue ribbon. LOL. It got I think about 2 hrs of filtered sun. Even though it says not to put it in the sun, it seemed to love the filtered sun. I havent seen it that pretty since.
Avatar? only 4 times??? HA I got you beat, I love that movie.
Larry, I love my monstera, I have to figure out how to tie it up. It might already be to big.Its starting to take over the house, I call it my monster. Hehee
Polly: Its a philo then. The leaves are a dark green with light green striped through them. I will get a picture soon. I love it! Polly, WOW, your arrowhead is amazing. I have a long time to get to where yours is.
Joe: I dont hate you!!! Silly. I use 5:1:1, not gritty mix. It is 5 parts repti bark, 1 part perlite and 1 part cactus soil. I am wondering also if it will fall apart. I heard it wont. It will grab on to all the stuff.
I know I have a bunch of threads, I am so sorry. I am sure everyone hates me and is sick of hearing from me but I have alot of questions as I begin this journey. So I am so very sorry for all the threads.
Its not that my babies eat alot...my 4 month old has had a bad bout with acid reflux, collic, possible food allergy. When he was a month old I had to stop giving him breast milk because they suspected a food allergy. That was terrible in of itself because I was mass producing. It was insane. 110 ounces in the freezer and he wasnt even a month old yet...plus what he was already eating everyday. It was crazy how I was producing milk.
He was crying and fussy non stop. It was awful. At that point they put him on a special formula and acid reflux medicine. When that didnt work we went to a GI doctor who changed his medicine and changed his formula. Since that change, he has been great and a happy baby. It comes at a price though. $9 a day for the bottle of special formula. He drinks a bottle a day. So that is about $275 a month. Then his one medicine is $40 and the other is $15. :)
So I do have a plant budget as the expense of this issue is kind of extreme. I am hoping once he gets on solids we can change the formula. The doc thinks we can. So with that and diapers for both boys....I have to have a little buget for extras that arent so important. Luke, the 4 month old has been awesome for about 3 months now and hasnt had any issues so we hope he is getting better.
Your arrowhead is also very pretty. I cant wait till mine gets bigger.
Tiff I love your threads.
I am sorry to hear your son has acid reflux etc and I really can sympathize. My son had horrible colic and he cried nonstop. I understand. It wont last, hang in there. Hes 34 now with kids of his own.
This is a great release for you. Keep posting.

[Philodendron 'Silver' Scindapsus pictus argyraeus] $2.75 /Walmart
Thank you sir, she's a keeper. :)
Hi Tiff,
Pothos & Philodendron are 2 different plants, both from the family of Aroids. They are related but look different, if you Google each for images & look closely, you'll see the difference.
The little leaf covering you're mentioning that comes out covering each new leaf is entirely normal.
Don't know what it's called, but I think its job is to protect the leaf from sun & injury as it unfurls & opens. It's completely normal that it dries up & falls off, so pls. don't remove it until it's done so, it's apparently doing its job (or it wouldn't be there).
Tiff, please post away! I am loving it...
One bit of advice though...
Before you start to cover your entire home as I did, make sure you set yourself up a baby sitter or a friend you can bribe to care for your plants so you can run away from them for a day or two for a much needed vacation down the road..lol..seriously. I am afraid tyo taken a weekend off.
I did once, and 1/4 of my plants dried out and died because my relative thought they were watering right.
I have not been away that many days since.
You have to teach someone how to water your plants and how to judge when to, in the great mixes you are using, or you will have to pass up that next big vacation like I have too now.
Now, lately, my vacations are days off from work spending it at my home with all my plant buddies! I can tell you though, that the money I save from going away allows me to buy more plants though..lol You see how it goes? Fun.
Thank God I built that pond in my yard!
I wonder how many of us here are afraid to go away to leave our plants behind and would much prefer to stick around with them?
Polly and Larry. Thanks. Luke is doing much better since being on the special formula and medicine. He started cereal the other day but HATES the taste of it. So I chanced it and mixed some baby fruit in with it and he loves it. He is a ham.
Mike, Glad you enjoy my posts. Everytime a new question pops in my head I say Oh Geesh, they are going to hate me there. Im just trying to learn though and I like talking to you all!
As far as traveling and plants...I cant say I would get to the point that I couldnt travel. Although we are limited right now with the little ones, hubby and I love to travel and see things. Life is too short not to see all the beautiful things in this world and the memories we have made as a couple are priceless. We cant wait to make memories now with the little kiddos.
Next week we are actually going to Vegas. Hubby has a work trip he has to go there for and when that happens we try to take advantage and have me come along. Hotel and food is covered and all we have to pay for is my plane ticket. YAY! Cant wait. Although, I will probably not even get out of bed the whole time. Need to catch up on sleep!
You guys are all awesome. Thank you all for your input the last few weeks!
im Srry again mr,,
i guess "$2.75/Walmart" doesnt do you a dang bit of good
across the way there does it my friend? lol
i keep hoping to catch (a shot) of it in the daylight! darn waning daylight,,
hope ya can source somethin local :)
...are you in Vegas gurl?? hehe
[/me reaches up n tries to pluck a piece of Polly's......Syngonium] lolo :)~
btw my Sheffs lookin better (above) 1 of the 3 survived, :)

Color dilemma
DD is expecting her second baby (a boy) in early August. I have been happily knitting away for him. I am nearly finished with a log cabin baby blanket done in pastels: white, yellow, mint green, baby blue, and a variegated yellow/mint green/baby blue. I think it's lovely. I showed it to her the other night and asked for her opinion on how she would like the squares arranged (there are at least a dozen possibilities). She played with the squares and came up with one that she liked best. My grandson asked who I was making it for and I told him it was for his little brother. DD spotted my Vogue Book of Baby Blankets and began leafing through it and spotted a blanket she fell in love with. She asked if I would make it for her. Of course, I said yes. Babies need more than one blanket, right? But she wants me to make it in GRAY. She went to Michael's and looked, but couldn't find just the right yarn. She didn't like the colors of Cotton-Ease, which was the yarn I suggested. So, I told her we could look through my stash and see what we could come up with. Darn it, I had forgotten about the Red Heart Shetland Chunky in Oxford Gray that I bought a couple of years ago to make a sweater for myself and never got around to. She spotted it and squealed with joy, saying that it was just perfect. And there's more than enough to make the blanket. I was hoping to present it to her at her shower, but I'm afraid that everyone will ooh and ahhh over the blanket, then go home and say, "What was her mother thinking? GRAY?"
I can't find that particular brand anywhere, but I discovered that Joanns has Patons Shetland Chunky and in some really nice colors. Tonight she is going with me to see the colors. I'm hoping to at least convince her to let me alternate the squares with another color. But unless she chooses blue, I just don't think there's any way it's going to look like a baby blanket. At the same time, it really is all about her and if she really wants gray, I guess it's gray.
I guess I'm not really asking for advice. Just needed to get it off my chest.
Hey, Donna, maybe a solution would be to tie small, baby blue (checked?) ribbons, like in a quilt, where the squares meet. She could remove the ribbons easy enough to suit her taste later, and for the shower, make it look and feel better to you, too. You're such a thoughtful Mommy and Grandmommy! Who knows, she may like it better with the baby look, and still be able to use it without the ribbons for when he is more of a "little man".
I know you're not really asking for advice but maybe you can convince your daughter that babies see primary colors better (seems like I read that somewhere a long time ago when my kids were little) , Marvel's idea of ribbons is a great one - you could also maybe weave it into the knitter fabric but it can be removed later. Maybe she'll like it so much that you won't have to!
I appreciate your concerns, Donna. You are making this afghan to provide a loving gift to your daughter as well as grandchild. If grey will make your DD happy, who cares what others will think? You are her mom, so make her happy. (It's not like she is making some very poor decision that will be a disaster. It is just a baby blanket, and she wants a grey one. So????) But of course, you don't have to give it to her at her baby shower. You could give her something else at the shower, such as a sweater, hat and matching booties.
It does seem like I hear of more new moms these days that do not want baby pastel colors, especially for little boys. For them, I usually make something in crayon colors of red, yellow and blue unless they have specific colors in mind.
Thanks, Sheila. I know, it shouldn't matter to me what others think of the gift, when I know it's exactly what she wants. I'm not the world's fastest knitter and the shower is at the beginning of June, so most likely, this will be the gift I give at her shower. I have other things I want to make, but I know I won't have them all done before then. And since she requested this blanket, I have pretty much put other projects on hold to complete this first. She did look at the Patons Shetland Chunky and decided she would like a medium blue as a contrast, so I ordered it. But now I'm feeling as if I've manipulated her a bit, so I will make a couple of blue squares and then we'll lay them out with the gray and I'll let her make the final decision.
the square is very nice and the gray is a nice shade. Of course we think more in baby colors or primary colors (I have also used them) but you want her to be happy. The blue is a nice accent if she does like it. Bottom line is what she wants - you on the other hand need to keep a "happy face" when she opens it so others don't see your true feelings. You can make a fuss about actually finishing it in time for the shower since you knew how much she wanted this lovely gray blanket for the baby. I remember my son when he was young - wore gray and black sweatclothes for years. We didn't allow him to paint his room black when he was in elementary school. Now is does wear other colors (at age 31) but he is still conservative in his shades. We all have our favorites, that's what makes this an interesting planet. Enjoy it, you have plenty of other things to make in other colors!
That is a nice pattern, Donna, and it is light gray (baby grey?) and not Charcoal :) at least.
As long as your daughter knows you really would be happiest with what she really likes best, you'll both be pleased. I think the wording Profsusan suggested would work. Tie it all up with a big blue bow and wide blue ribbon as presentation. I still like my little ribbon idea, will be fun hearing what she and you work out. You sure are doing a nice job of knitting.
Mine wasn't for a baby, but for our German exchange student. Dani came to us after a disastrous experience with her first family. She was very timid, quiet and shy. After admiring both daughters afghans I offered to make her one as well. I gave her several patterns to choose from and then we shopped for yarn at walmart.
ARGH, she chose a very tough pattern, and a tough color (tough for me, as I really didn't care for the color at all). I started on this afghan right away, and it took me till three days before she flew back home to get it finished. There were 5 stitches that needed knitting together every so many rows.... They were killers.
Dani still has and treasures this afghan 12 years later. I know it is at the bottom of her bed all winter long.
Donna, all that really matters, is that your daughter will love it. I think it is really nice of you to let her make the final decision before you add the blue squares.

To sum it up should I buy sim free (expensive) or go with Desire on the Three network?
I am due to get a Desire handset on the Three network in Ireland through a work contract.
As I understand it the rollout is currently delayed due to issues loading the Three applications, branding and customisations on to the devices in Ireland..
I am assuming if this is the case, that the handset will then be both locked and branded, also whenever Froyo comes to device via HTC i will not be able to upgrade due to the Three branding and apps.
So to get froyo (whenever) i assume I will have to unlock and debrand, and get the stock HTC rom - is this all possible? anybody been through this?
Otherwise I am seriously considering just purchasing SIM free althought that will be at least double the price.
Just looking for advice on my best option?
Cheers for any experience, advice (maybe from three UK customers)

barking dog ► Open3805 Aurora Court Haltom City, TX
This dog barks at just about anything all day and night. Although the constant barking is very annoying while I'm doing yard work or anything close to the fence, I can ignore it during the day. The constant daily night barking is becoming an issue. I had hoped the owner would have done something about this but it has gone on far too long· Reported by Ranger (Guest) · Share · Flag Flagged

Noise Complaint ► Open5213 Ammons Haltom City, Texas
The residents at 5213 Ammons have a party almost every weekend. They blast their tejano music until well after midnight and when asked to turn it down, they just tell you to F*&^ off! The police have been called multiple times, but they just wait until the police leave and turn the volume right back up. Extremely rude for the surrounding neighbors!!· Reported by ressa073 · Share · Flag Flagged
Charessa (Guest)
No it's not been resolved. They still party every other weekend. When I called the police dept (twice before anyone responded) they sent an officer out, but he never even got out of his car. He drove by to see what he could hear, but he needed to go to my backyard to see what I was hearing!! The 2 backyards back up to each other so it's MUCH louder out there! He basically blew me off and their party lasted until after 2am

To citizen helper, I can only speak from my experience with code enforcement, when I complained about a guy on the opposite block from me who continually uses his backyard for his parking, I allowed code officer to enter my yard to see, the thing he emphasized the most was am I willing to go to court about this because if code officers can't see it from the front of said house they can't do anything about it, I would have to attend to represent the city, that's just ludicrous! Again why bother.
J L Fletcher (Guest)
Same here. The house behind me @ 1921 Oakwood (I think) has a effeciency apt in the back. Many years ago the man that owened the property was allowed to let his Mother live there, yet my Father was told he had to remove the house he had built (50's) as these were Single Family dwellings. Last time I looked at my Appraisal, it still shows Single Family Dwelling.... SO ?? why are they allowed to rent out &/or let people live there? Codes advised if they would not let them go in back yard to see it, they could do nothing. CODE is being violated, and they cant do anything???? Thats why the properties around here are rented and they rent to druggies, low lifes, and sex offenders. Go figure.
Tony Hiles (Guest)
I completely understand your frustration, almost seems like a city philosophy to help the code violators get away with stuff as in tell them to build a fence or screen your property and nobody will be able to see the dozen wrecked vehicles in your back yard! I was asked by code enforcement was I willing to go to court about some code violations, if that's what it take I would welcome the opportunity!
j. Fletcher (Guest)
I filed a complaint to HC website and today codes came by and took picture of truck in front yard (mind you 2 drive ways and no cars there, yet they park in middle of yard??) Also took picture of 3ft grass at side of house and a couple other pictures and posted sticker on truck and tag on front door. Now this was early morning, and the ole gal just got up (nearly 4pm) and went out to truck and left. geez. They think they still live south of the border. As far as the house in back.... he is still sawing and building on it. Guess its ok to not follw codes for some. A-1Single Family Dwelling on Appraisal must mean you can build it---they will come.

House next door had 2 dogs in back yard they had just left-- no food, no water. I called Animal control. He came by and put note on door. Advised me NOT TO FEED OR WATER THE DOGS. The oldest son came by house next day and removed the sign. I called Animal controal again, and he came back and put another sign on the house. Advised again, NOT TO FEED OR WATER DOGS. That evening the woman that had lived there came by and got some more stuff from house and tore the sign up. 2 days late Animal Control came by to get dogs.... after 5 days they would have been dead.... yes I fed and gave them water. How inhuman to tell me me not to. Humane Society of Tarrant County as most upset and was going to come get them the day HC animal control showed up. Can anyone explain this nonsense to me?????
