From Library Staff
These simple, affordable designs are typical of the thousands of houses built in the Portland area during the housing boom of the 1940s. Most of the houses shown in this book are far more down-to-earth than glamorous or space-age, but they definitely have a modern tone with practical floorplans, ... Read More »

i had diarrhea for 2 days and then now i dont, can anyone tell me if thats a sign of early pregnancy i kinda nausous (sp) sometimes and right before i got my diarrhea my tummy hurt like pins and needles is that a sign?posted 01/25/2010 by a BabyCenter Member
I had this with all 3 of my pregnancies. I believe it is the way I have morning sickness. My body just didn't know how to deal with anything, and so, just got rid of it as violently as possible. Fun, I know, but it passed by 15 weeks with all 3 of them. Hang in there, it will pass.posted 01/12/2010 by tallmama2
My dr. says it could be a reaction to the progesterone in your bodyposted 01/04/2010 by Lulysmom
This is my second pregnancy, and with both, I experienced diarrhea - especially early on. It is a little scary, with the stomach cramps and everything, not knowing! It was scarier the first pregnancy. Maybe it is the iron or something in prenatal vitamins, I don't know. All I know is, it's not fun, but it is worth all of this when you hold your baby in your arms the first time!posted 12/30/2009 by smdwriter
9 weeks pregnant,all day nausea,but seen to be at the toilet on and off with the wickedest runs!! HORRIBLE!!! Glad to hear it's normal,I never had it with my first two children......hopefully it's gone soon.posted 12/30/2009 by sheeproo
I'm about 6 weeks pregnant and have been experiencing the same on and off. I also have nausea but have not been throwing up. I am very relieved to read that others are experiencing the same, as I find myself overly worried that something might be wrong. :)posted 12/05/2009 by carito2385
I am also 4 weeks pregnant and suddenly began experiencing diarrhea about 2 days ago. I'm so glad this blog is here and it seems like a normal symptom. I was really getting worried. I have been able to keep down gatorade to stay hydrated and I've been eating BRAT diet-friendly items and they seem to be helping (not fixing, but helping) the situation. I've lost interest in food, but havne't really experienced real nausea, just a general lack of hunger or desire to eat. I've found that having something very small but often has improved my discomfort (again not fixed, but improved) and has also helped avoid any big diarrhea emergencies.posted 10/14/2009 by a BabyCenter Member
I'm in my 15th week of pregnancy and my first 3 months went great. No morning sickness or anything. Yesterday after eating dinner I started getting stomach cramps really bad. It ended up being the worst case of diarrhea then I got really hot and sweaty and then ended it all with vomiting (eww) Has any one ever experienced it this far long into your pregnancy. Is it normal? I was a little constipated before but I'm sure not any more. I'm just wondering if it's a normal thing at 15 weeks and maybe after being constipated this happens? Of course the first thing you think about is a miscarriage but I am not bleeding thank goodness. Any answers to this will be very helpful. Thank you so muchposted 10/12/2009 by a BabyCenter Member
THANK YOU!!! I am 7 weeks pregnant and started having diarrhea about 6 days ago. Have been nervous about it, this is my third pregnancy and didn't experiende this with either of the previous two. I can take comfort in the fact that it seems to be relatively common, although not one of my pregnancy books even mentions it just constipation!!!posted 09/28/2009 by jenbrightman
I am pregnant with my third child and with all three I had diarrhea for the first 9 weeks or so, my OB GYN thinks it could be related to a sensitivity to progesterone that is increasing a lot those first weeks. Good to know I´m not the only oneposted 09/25/2009 by Lulysmom

Hello Sarah , I have heavy soil, overall my spring bulbs do reasonably well.
A year ago I bought a lot of different daff bulbs- spent a little bit of money on some of themThe ones that did the best for me this Spring were the cheap ones bought from Wilkos etc. This may have been down to the weather both at the time and the year previous. I had a lot that came up blind or too early so the flowers were damaged.
All the bulbs are still in the ground so I'm hopeful to have a better show for the Spring.
Interesting advice kate- I begrudge spending too much money on the garden but £2.50 sounds like my sort of price. Just out of interest how much grit do you put in to the planting hole- some bits of my garden could always do with some more drainage.
Just my experience....... I'm going to take some care about where to plant any new daff bulbs ( and there will be some) as when the flowers are over, you have to leave the leaves on them til they die down to feed the bulbs for flowering next year.
I love daffs, one of my favourite- but they can take a while to die down after flowering and look messy & scraggly whilst they are doing so.
That was my feeling as well Kate, plant them out after the frost has gone. I have had 2 larkspurs in the garden this year grown from seed, have flowered very well but are now dying off.
I struggle also with the hardy/half hardy annual description. I have some small larkspur plants grown from seed, not really sure at the moment whether to plant them out at the end of October or just to over winter them.
Thanks for the great photos, love the hogbox
I inherited a clemais montana. My advice would be just let it be and let it die back naturally
.I wouldn't prune it now as it flowers on this year growth. Last year Monty on GW advised re Clemantis- if it flowers before June don't prune. Seems to work for this plant
I generally have an approach that I expect a few plants to get eaten. I only grow flowers so I try and grow them on til they hopefully they have a chance. Very occasionally I put down slug pellets just to give a plant a fighting chance. I did that with some Echinecias that I grew from seed and they have bounced back.
LIke the malt vinegar approach and have heard of the leopard slug, but don't know anything about them
Hope this is going to be fixed soon
I know what you mean Gracie.I think a hardy annual means that it will survive a frost if it's roots are established. I grow lots of Calendula, which are hardy annuals. I've had some plants that were grown from seed and flowered last year and still flowered this year. I will regrow from seed to replace them as I think they have just run out of steam now. I guess it depends on the climate and how harsh a winter we all have. Last year for me it was very mild which might explain why those plants survived.
That's my experience
Welshonion, for what I know it was all a bit strange. She lives up a lane with a few houses around but no garden ponds, although there I'm sure there are some natural ditches close by. They just appeared, she said it was of almost bibilical amounts! They were so tiny they hopped under the doors. We just thought that they all lost sense of direction and just followed each other.
She had maybe 4 cats at the time, they didn't know what to do with them.
They were all released into the garden and it's never happened again
Me too, I really enjoying coming on here

Businesses outdoors in the region should probably factor in the abundance of sand. But they don't, apparently.
November 9, 2010 3:16 by shafeer
We've been banging on about environmental concerns over the last month or so, but there's more than one kind of environmental issue businesses should be concerned with. Some recent news has underlined that, even before sustainability, businesses should concern themselves with where they are operating.
Word has reached Kipp that in internal meetings at Yas Island, the problems with the world's fastest roller coaster at Ferrari World have been explained: It's all down to sand. The Formula Rossa was plagued by problems at the opening (attended by Kipp), and apparently it was all down to sand in the braking system. Engineers giving a talk to other construction managers at Yas Island said the sophisticated braking systems were not designed to deal with sand.
It is, at the very least, a bit of an oversight for a ride placed slap bang in the middle of the desert.
But Ferrari World's ride designers aren't the only ones to miss this trick. Remember Masdar's recent announcement? Apparently, the reason the project's developers are having so much trouble making efficient solar panels is that every time they put them out in the desert, a fine layer of dust diminishes their efficiency by significant amounts.
Frank Wouters, Masdar's Power Director wryly observed: "There's a huge difference between PowerPoint and real life." Until the problem is solved, solar power in the region seems doomed. Masdar boffins are scratching their heads as we speak.
Finally, the port of Jebel Ali was brought to a standstill earlier this week by a sandstorm. Not much to be done about that, we admit, but all this sand-related chaos made a very clear point to Kipp: When doing business in the desert, bear in mind you are in a desert.

What have we achieved so far?
Since our foundation in 1993, literacy levels have increased by 24%, with 80% of 11-year-olds reaching the stage expected for their age group in 2009, compared with only 56% in 1995. Yet, as demands on literacy skills are rapidly increasing, there is still much to do to reach those people who are in most need of literacy support.

Our special coverage of the closest race for years
Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
25 Oct 2011 21:37 GMT | Middle East, Libya, Yemen
Sporadic explosions and gunfire have been heard in the Yemeni capital Sanaa hours after the government announced a ceasefire with a breakaway general and armed opposition tribes.
On Tuesday evening, residents of the Hasaba and Sofan neighbourhoods reported that they could still hear fighting nearby after the 3pm ceasefire deadline earlier announced by state television.
Tribal sources told the AFP news agency that at least one man was killed and nine people were wounded when shelling struck Hasaba. Fighting also continued in Taiz, Yemen's second-largest city, where 15 people were killed, the AFP reported.
According to the earlier government announcement, embattled President Ali Abdullah Saleh had reached a ceasefire agreement with dissident General Ali Mohsen al-Ahmar. The two sides' forces have been engaged in bloody battles for weeks, and the violence escalated in recent days.
After the fighting seemed to continue on Tuesday, state television said that the truce was "stabilising" and that a mediation committee set up to negotiate the ceasefire was still "making contact with all parties".
Saleh, who has ruled for 33 years, also summoned the ambassador from the United States to say that he is prepared to sign a deal that will see him step down, a promise he has made several times before.
Tribal chief signed ceasefire
Tribal forces led by the powerful Sheikh Sadeq al-Ahmar, who backs the general and who has thrown his support behind the pro-democracy movement that has rocked Yemen, also agreed to the ceasefire, sources in Ahmar's office said on Tuesday.
The truce, state media said in its statement, had the "goal of ... bringing calm ... and ensuring the safety of the capital, its people and their properties".
The statement added that the government and rival forces would remove checkpoints and barricades set up throughout the capital as deadly clashes and battles intensified between the feuding parties.
Yemeni troops loyal to Saleh have fired on crowds of protesters calling for his removal multiple times in the past week, killing at least 20 people, medics have said.
Another demonstration formed in the early morning hours in the capital Sanaa, with protesters marching through the streets surrounding Change Square, the epicentre of the nationwide movement calling for Saleh's resignation.
The protesters were marching towards the al-Qaa district, an area controlled by pro-Saleh troops, when they were fired upon with live ammunition, witnesses told the AFP news agency.
Three of the dead reportedly reached a field hospital run by the revolutionary doctors, while three other bodies were taken to the state-run al-Jumhuri hospital in the capital, sources told Al Jazeera.
'Listen to your people'
"The people want to prosecute the butcher," the Associated Press news agency quoted the protesters as chanting. They were demanding a trial for Saleh.
Some also held up posters saying that after the death of Libya's Muammar Gaddafi, it was time for Saleh to "listen to your people".
Live Box 201131716250932154
Amid the shooting, the marchers were forced to retreat from the surrounding streets towards Change Square, AP said.
Saleh's forces in Sanaa have exchanged gunfire with army units who defected to the opposition early on in the uprising and whose forces now escort and protect the protesters.
Mohammed al-Qubati, who runs a field hospital at the protesters' camp site, said at least 40 people were wounded by Saleh's forces during Tuesday's shooting.
He said dozens also suffered breathing difficulties because of tear gas fired by the troops and several passed out.
Violence in Sanaa has escalated in the wake of a non-binding UN Security Council resolution urging Saleh to sign a Gulf states-brokered deal that paves the way for his resignation.
Saleh welcomed the resolution on Monday, but has so far refused to sign the agreement, despite increased regional and international pressure to do so.
Meanwhile, in Yemen's second largest city Taiz, seven civilians died and at least 30 others were wounded in shelling and in clashes between armed tribesmen who back the anti-government protesters and pro-Saleh troops, medics and sources told Al Jazeera.
Witnesses there described scenes of fear and chaos as mortar shells fell randomly on city neighbourhoods overnight and early on Tuesday, damaging dozens of houses and forcing schools to shut down.

One of the favorite pastimes of Russia's political analysts is guessing what the results of a free and fair election in the country would look like—no easy task, since the last genuinely competitive vote was held in 1999. With most polling agencies taken over by the government, and online polls clearly unscientific, any prediction is as good as another. One way to gauge public opinion and measure the relative standing of political parties is a "mock election"—an exercise launched by the opposition Solidarity movement earlier this year. Every few weeks, Solidarity activists across Russia—from Archangelsk to Yaroslavl—print mock ballots, set up mock ballot boxes on the streets and squares, and ask passing citizens to register their votes by means of a secret ballot. The results from around the country are then tabulated and published.
Western proponents of realpolitik and the Kremlin's "fellow travelers" routinely caution world leaders against criticizing Moscow over its dismal human rights and democracy record, as such criticism, in their view, would only "irritate Russia" and sour relations. This argument is true—if one takes "Russia" to mean Vladimir Putin's unelected clique of corrupt bureaucrats, former security operatives, and billionaire friends. For those who do not equate a great nation with a rogue regime and pay attention to the genuine voices of Russian society, such a view is a travesty. With regard to human rights, nowhere is the discrepancy between the two Russias more evident than in the attitudes toward S.1039, the Sergei Magnitsky Rule of Law Accountability Act of 2011, a US Senate bill that would impose visa sanctions and asset freezes on Russian officials responsible for violating human rights, including "the freedoms of religion, expression, association, and assembly and the rights to a fair trial and democratic elections."
Western leaders must envy Vladimir Putin. They can only dream of a primetime television interview, broadcast by all major networks, with obsequious, prescreened questions, and the knowledge that nothing they say—however untruthful or outrageous—will be publically challenged, since their opponents are not allowed on the air.
For all the obvious similarities between Vladimir Putin and Soviet dictators—from stage-managed party congresses to farcical "elections"—the regime in Moscow was at least shy to admit the likeness publicly. No longer, it seems. In a television interview last week, Putin's press secretary, Dmitri Peskov, not only accepted the comparison of his boss to Soviet leader Leonid Brezhnev, but readily embraced it. "Brezhnev was not a negative for our country's history," Peskov opined to his interviewers' disbelief, "He was a huge positive."
Following the events of September 24, when Vladimir Putin announced his intention to remain in power for another twelve years, it is becoming increasingly likely that the next change of government in Russia will take place outside of the official "electoral" schedule. Growing discontent, falling oil prices, likely economic downturn, and a rigid authoritarian system devoid of checks and balances—or even "steam valves"—do not make for a stable combination. Opposition leader and former Deputy Prime Minister Boris Nemtsov called Putin's decision "the catalyst for civil unrest and possible revolutionary events" in the country.
One of the surest signs of repression in Russia is a flourishing culture of political jokes. The 1930s and the 1970s, in particular, bear testimony to this. In 2008, when Vladimir Putin tricked term limits by becoming prime minister under hand-picked President Dmitri Medvedev, a new joke was born in the Moscow intelligentsia's kitchens. The year is 2020. Putin and Medvedev are in a bar, drinking beer. Putin looks up and asks: "Dima, do you remember which one of us is president, and which one is prime minister?" Medvedev thinks for a short while, then replies: "I think you are president, Vladimir Vladimirovich, and I am prime minister." "Then it's your turn to pay for the beer," responds Putin.
One inconvenience of heading a puppet political party is that, at any moment, the puppet master may remind you who is really pulling the strings. Mikhail Prokhorov learned this lesson the hard way. Last week, the Forbes billionaire, whose fortune is estimated at $18 billion (making him the third-richest man in Russia and the eighth-richest man in Europe), was publicly shown his place by a midlevel Kremlin apparatchik. Radii Khabirov, deputy head of the internal politics section at the presidential administration—a subordinate of the Kremlin's notorious deputy chief of staff, Vladislav Surkov—directed the national convention of Right Cause party to dismiss Prokhorov as leader.
As Russia's "parliamentary campaign" gets underway, its participants—the handful of officially sanctioned parties—try their best to animate the predetermined spectacle, which will end on December 4 with a convincing "victory" for Vladimir Putin's United Russia. Two parties—Right Cause and Just Russia (through its youth wing, the Young Socialists)—have unveiled "shadow governments" that would take power if they win in December. Right Cause, led by Forbes billionaire Mikhail Prokhorov, staffed its fantasy cabinet mainly with business figures, such as banker Yevgeny Ivanov (finance minister), power company executive Mikhail Slobodin (energy minister), and pharmacy owner Artyom Bektemirov (health minister). If Prokhorov's list at least has some corporate logic, the "shadow government" presented by Just Russia defies comprehension.
On Monday, during his meeting with leaders of the seven registered political parties, Russian President Dmitri Medvedev signed decree number 1124, calling parliamentary elections for December 4. Between ten and thirty days from now, parties must hold their conventions and nominate candidates for the State Duma (by way of nationwide lists). The four parties currently in the Duma—United Russia, Just Russia, the Communists, and LDPR—are placed on the ballot automatically; the three remaining groups—Yabloko, Patriots of Russia, and Right Cause—must collect at least 150,000 signatures by October 19 in order to be registered.
Just the same, no simpler Are the tests of our times:Can you come to the square?Dare you come to the square?Can you come to the square?Dare you come to the square?When that hour strikes?
— Alexander Galich, St. Petersburg Romance (1968)
When Vladimir Putin's government set out to mute public criticism, its censorship primarily targeted large television networks: NTV, TV-6, TVS were successively shut down or seized by the state. The squeezing of influential newspapers soon followed. Today, it seems, even talking to people on the streets or in their homes has become a censored activity.
This year, which has been dominated by news from the Middle East, also marks the twentieth anniversary of the dissolution of the USSR. There may be more in common between the two than first meets the eye. Behind the Desert Storm, a new book by Russian historian Pavel Stroilov that has just been published in Britain—and that has already become a source of controversy—sheds light on top-secret Kremlin documents and suggests that many of today's problems in the Middle East have their origins in the waning years of the Soviet empire.
For all the tricks the Kremlin has perfected over the years to ensure "correct" voting results, what happened last week in St. Petersburg was in a league of its own. The Russian authorities may have invented a new authoritarian know-how: an election organized in secret from candidates and voters.
For Yuri Andropov, who headed the KGB from the 1960s to the 1980s, suppressing political dissent was a top priority. "Every such act represents a danger," he told his colleagues in 1979, "The struggle against them must be decisive, uncompromising, and merciless." The regime tried different approaches. Dissidents were convicted to long sentences for "anti-Soviet agitation"—an offense under Article 70 of the penal code—and sent away to prisons and labor camps alongside real criminals. Often, they were labelled "insane," committed to special psychiatric prisons and subjected to torturous "treatment." Both of these practices—criminal convictions and "punitive psychiatry"—met with worldwide condemnation and ultimately proved too costly for the Kremlin's international image.

Research presented by Dr. Lynn Raymond, from the University of British Columbia, shows that blocking a specific class of glutamate receptors, called extrasynaptic NMDA receptors, can improve motor learning and coordination, and prevent cell death in animal models of Huntington disease.

Here is a guide to tablets under £300 some may be £200 by now but I'm not sure that I would recommend one for a 9 year old, I would have thought that they may be a bit fragile. Netbooks are heavier and more sturdy but they nearly all come with limited RAM and Windows 7 Starter Edition - not the friendliest of interfaces. But here is a selection from Revoo

While I would love to offer insightful personal anecdotes
for each intern, I can't. I'm happy if I can just remember their names. (I used
to rag on my dad for calling me the name of one of my five brothers and
sisters, but I get it now. That said, I still reserve the right to shamelessly
guilt him for once calling me the dog's name.)
There is one intern who sticks out in my mind, though. At
the start, Sarah was most notable to me because she had the most amazingly
bouncy, perfect hair I'd ever seen on anyone outside of Blake Lively (who, I am
here to tell you first-hand, has the flaxen locks of a goddess). She also
dressed cutely, was really nice and always did her best, though I couldn't help
but notice she was never really one of those looking to make her mark. She was,
as they say, just happy to be here.
So me being me and thinking everyone wants to move up the
ladder, I chose Sarah over one of the eager brownie-bearing beavers for a
project. It went OK up to the part where we had to send it out and I asked
Sarah to grab a shipping box.
Her: "I don't know how to do that." I thought she meant she
didn't know where to find boxes, so I pointed to where we store the office
supplies. Her: "No, I mean I don't know how to do that." Me: "Do what? Pop
together a box?" Her: "Yeah, I don't know how to do that." Me: "You push it up.
You tape it. That's it." Her: "Yeah, no, my mom does stuff like that for me."
While part of me wanted to patiently show her how to make a
box, really I just wanted to blurt out, "Dude, for real?!" In the end, I just sort
of sat and blinked. Standing there before me was a high school senior who
didn't know how to make a box because her mom didn't think she'd ever need a box.
Sadly, there are a ton of Sarahs out there. I know this
because she was hardly the last one through my doors with little to zero
real-world experience. While everyone has to do something for the first time at
some point (how do you learn otherwise?), I've never seen as many girls get
overbabied by their parents as I do now. The results of these good intentions?
Girls leave the nest knowing how to do exactly zip.
And I'm not talking about
it-will-come-in-handy-four-times-in-your-life stuff like how to use jumper
cables without blowing up the car. I am talking about things like laundry. Or
cooking. Or, in the case of one of my interns, how to mail something.
I get it—it's nice to have your mom do the boring or tough
things in life for you. But learning how to take care of yourself gives you a
sense of confidence that the world isn't such a scary place. That you can
handle the little (and big) challenges life will inevitably throw your way.
Remember: One day you'll move out of your parents' house and
strike out on your own. And for that, you'll need a box.

Top seven are top-shelf talents
This year's crop of can't-miss prospects is seven deep, while the Bengals, Dolphins and Broncos should be able to fill needs later in the first round.
Q: I remember commentators saying last year that there was a significant drop-off after the fifth-best prospect, current Dallas Cowboys CB Terence Newman. Where do you see that drop-off being in this year's draft class?
Randy, Washington, D.C.
KIPER: The drop-off this year occurs after six or seven players. It looks like the first six picks right now will be QB Eli Manning, WR Larry Fitzgerald, QB Ben Roethlisberger, OT Robert Gallery, TE Kellen Winslow Jr. and S Sean Taylor. Beyond that we'll likely see lots of variance in how teams rank the rest of their boards.
On my Big Board of the top 25 NFL prospects, the top seven all earn very similar grades: Fitzgerald, Taylor, Manning, WR Roy Williams, Roethlisberger, Gallery and Winslow. There is a drop-off at No. 8, but the prospects from Nos. 8-14 are bunched closely together in terms of draft grade. The next group of comparable grades includes Nos. 15-21, with Nos. 22-32 looking very much alike to finish out the first round.
The slotting of this year's talent will affect how teams deal with their first-rounders. A team trading down out of the top seven will need a significant return on that pick because it would be giving up a lot if it moves out of the top 15 or so. That's what happened last year when the Saints traded the 17th and 18th overall picks to Arizona for the No. 6 pick. New Orleans got quality DT Johnathan Sullivan while the Cardinals had to reach for WR Bryant Johnson and DE Calvin Pace. Arizona made that deal for salary reasons -- it did not want to pay big money to the No. 6 pick -- but you can bet most teams learned something from the Cardinals and won't operate like that.

Your editorial of March 29 was as condescending as it gets.
You called the city administration's fight over Mr. Catsiff's painting of his toy store a "flap" that needs to be put behind us as a community. I can't disagree more.
For over two years the feeling of the majority of Walla Walla's citizens was made clear — "leave the mural, what's it hurting?"
Instead, under the guise of preserving city authority against anarchy, the City Council spent how much tax money prosecuting this business? I would like the U-B to report that figure — accurately if possible — so it can be considered by voters during the next City Council election.

Current sensor achieves high accuracy by utilizing the AMR effect
Installation tolerances in the application can be compensated for by means of zero and sensitivity calibration which transforms into a high system accuracy. The sensor system embraces the sensor cell, the signal processing unit and two permanent magnets which generate a magnetic auxiliary field for the sensor element.
The E524.5 utilizes the Anisotropic Magneto-Resistive (AMR) effect. It measures the magnetic field generated by the primary conductor with the sensitive axis being located at the level of the sensing element. The size of the AMR effect makes the use of a flux concentrator redundant. The fast amplifier circuits in the closed loop circuit enable a high bandwidth of more than 500kHz. This in turn enables detection of the real value of pulse edges. The typical deviation is 1.5% FS across the entire temperature range from -40°C through +125°C. This is significantly better than the accuracy of Hall effect sensors (typ. about 5% FS).
A product-specific lead frame along with a sophisticated packaging technology makes it possible to implement the sensor as a system-in-package solution. All system components for primary current value acquisition are integrated in a JEDEC compatible SOIC16 package by means of an industry standard molding process. Additional pick-and-place processes as well as soldering steps are not necessary.
The difference in the magnetic field is generated by placing the primary conductor beneath the sensor package forming the shape of a U. By varying the primary conductor geometry the required differential field at the sensor can be adjusted according to the specific requirements of the application. Thus, only one current sensor is required for a wide range of primary currents.

If you haven't heard the acronym DACA yet, you probably will soon. Here is a brief synopsis of what every attorney should know about DACA, which stands for "Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals". DACA is a Directive that was first announced on June 15, 2012 and allows applicants to begin applying on August 15, 2012.
** What DACA is**:
- DACA allows the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to defer removal as an act of prosecutorial discretion on a case-by-case basis for applicants who qualify and apply with the United States Immigration and Citizenship Service (USCIS), and subsequently have their applications approved.
- DACA is expected to last up to two (2) years, with the possibility of extending for an additional time period; however, because DACA is a directive, it is subject to end at any time.
- DACA applicants can concurrently apply for work authorization and may be eligible to obtain an Employment Authorization Document (EAD).
Who is eligible for DACA:
- Must be at least 15 years old to apply (with exceptions for those already in immigration removal proceedings), but must have been under 31 years old as of June 15, 2012;
- Must have arrived in the United States before reaching the age of 16 years old;
- Must have had continuous residence in the United States since June 15, 2007 (brief absences that are found to be brief, casual, innocent, and were reasonably calculated to accomplish the purposes for the absence may be allowed);
- Must have been physically present in the United States on June 15, 2012;
- No travel outside of the United States after August 15, 2012 will be allowed until application is approved, and all travel must be pre-approved by USCIS through an Advanced Parole application (which has different standards than Advanced Parole applications sent by those in the US with lawful presence);
- Must have graduated from high school or have obtained a Certificate of Completion or obtained a GED or are currently enrolled in specified schools, or have been honorably discharged from the US Armed Forces or Coast Guard. USCIS has confirmed that a GED obtained after August 15, 2012 will be accepted;
- Must not have been convicted of any felony or any significant misdemeanor or more than two (2) misdemeanors, or otherwise pose a threat to public safety or national security.
Applicants must provide adequate documentation to prove each and every requirement listed above
with their application and $465 fee.
Fee waivers may be granted, but must be applied for prior to the DACA application, and fee waivers must be approved before DACA application can be submitted.
What DACA is NOT:
- DACA is not a law, it is a policy.
- DACA is not a track to obtaining citizenship, nor does it provide a lawful status to be in the United States or excuse previous unlawful presence in the United States.
- DACA does not provide a way to offer derivative status for relatives.
- DACA is not Amnesty. (Amnesty was a law and notably different in many other ways.)
- There is no possibility to appeal or litigate when a DACA application is not approved; however USCIS has indicated that applicants will likely be able to re-apply, but will have to re-pay additional application fee.
- DACA information will not be shared with other agencies for enforcement purposes, except when an applicant has a disqualifying criminal background.
- There is currently no set deadline for DACA applications.
- There is currently no known application processing time; USCIS has indicated approval will take "several months".
- DACA is not yet completely defined and there are still some procedural and substantive questions remaining, and likely to remain due to the policy's prosecutorial discretion standard.

Cucumis sativus
1 gram
Double Yield cucumber was developed in 1924 by Joseph Harris & Company of Coldwater, NY.
Very early.
The fruit is perfectly symmetrical, very straight, blunt ends and best picked at 4-5".
Double Yield is extremely prolific and keeping the fruit picked will encourage further fruiting.
"Yield produces over twice as many pickles as can be picked from any other variety."
