I hate Majesty palms!
Okay, I have been trying to love this one for quite some time now. Just got one a coupe of weeks ago. Today, it looks limp. I don't get it! Only thing I can think of is that the tight soil ball is not getting access to the soil moisture in the new larger pot as I did not break up the root ball. Will work on it tomorrow and actually set it in water for a few hours. Might be the sun and heat in the garage so now it's outside in the shade. The coconut palm came through the winter looking fab by comparison.
The same thing happened to one of my majesty palms last year. All the fronds starting getting very curvy and it just didnt look good. I put it to a corner in the yard where no one would see it and it did come back and look good by the end of the season. I have had my largest majesty palm for 2 winters now and that one does fine. It gets a little bent out of shape indoors, but nothing that some time outdoors doesnt help. I give it shade from sunrise to about 3 pm in the day. In my experience, majesty palms hate sun and dry soil at any time so if yours was dry and/or in full sun, that might be a problem.
My coconut palm actually didnt do that great indoors this year. The Tall variety did amazingly, the dwarf one lost a frond or 2, but is still alive and healthy. I think it needs to be repotted. Its outside right now getting some needed fresh air!
Hope your majesty palm comes back for you! Its a great palm because it's so cheap that you dont have to feel guilty if you cant bring it indoors.
My understanding is that majesty palms love moisture and they shouldn't be allowed to really dry out. Technically these palms naturally thrive in full sunlight. However, they are taken out of their natural element and trained to grow indoors with indirect sunlight. I've tried them without success and am convinced they are not meant to be indoor palms. Somebody prove me wrong though so I can try them again too. :)
There are several people that have chimed in in the past that have gorgeous specimens of this palm and have it indoors half the year... not sure exactly how they do it, but in general, most people have similar experiences to above... not a great indoor palm (there are so many that are, you should concentrate on those).
check out these down the street from me (these like it outdoors here in California)
Indoors or out, same result--death. It must be their extreme intolerance to any dryness. As a sidenote, relative humidy outside has been like Vegas--8 percent. I have other palms--most in fact, just also a challenge. Guess it means I'll try once again until I discover te secret.
Great majesty palms! Those look even better than the ones I've seen in Florida. Another plant that is often sold for indoor use (that I'm convinced is a death wish) is Norfolk Island Pine. Go with phoenix robellini...these are fantastic and easy to care for indoor palms.
Wow lzrddr, beautiful majesty palms. They really are beautiful palms but few people actually get to see them grow to become that size. They don't really do that well in Florida either probably because of the soil, Cali is the only place where I have seen them thrive, but Im sure there are nice specimens in other places.
Heres my majesty palm. It always looks a little beat up after being indoors all winter, but I think it looks pretty good and it usually grows well during the summer! It's now going into its 3rd growing season, but ironically enough is shrinking in size because when I bought it the fronds were shade grown and very long, but now it is in more sun and the fronds are getting more compact now (I like the compact look better anyways!).
And PJ, I have terrible luck with robellini's indoors. I killed one completely and the other had spear pull but recovered after going outdoors. Its my fault because they were in terrible potting soil, but either way, it wasnt a great experience with those palms. I got a Solitare palm to replace my Robellini and it does great indoors and out so far for me. Its pretty tall though which might be a problem in the near future.
I have three Phoenix roebellini. One is seven feet tall and flowers every July now--it's a boy apparently. I love Date palms--they are EASY. The freakin', common Majesty is the challenge!:) Norfolk Island?--No problem, I have one that is....real tall.. Easy plant!--No comparison to the difficulty of these dang Majesties.
As usual, good information Alex.
NJOasis, I agree date palms are easier. Just a helpful note, its good to be receptive to feedback about your palms from people like lzrddr who know more than us about certain palms. I learned so much here from others about palms. Its good to be of a teachable spirit so we grow in knowledge of palms and even in life.
How am not of " a teachable spirit"? I posted with the intent of getting useful info on growing this palm as an indoor/outdoor palm. Your prior posting is baaffling to me. If I did not think I could learn (or teach ) from this forum, I would not frequent it.
Lrzddr,, those palms are so gorgeous, it inspired me to try once again. I was really annoyed when the last one just seemed to go limp overnight. I had brought it recently, repotted it, watered it, placed it in my garage-turned greenhouse and it just went into sudden decline. I just got another one that is sitting in a shallow saucer of water. I view it as a challenge--much as I do tree ferns. Both of which share a love of water and an intolerance of drought. But another question comes to mind. How do these water lovers seem to thrive in arid Calif?--Water bills must be enormous to sustain them, no?
To me, watering lawns is a huge waste of water... few plants here in southern California require more water to look good than lawn... but if you insist on growing a lawn, might as well fill it with Majesty Palms... can't overwater them outdoors, that's for sure!
If you can find the Ravenea Hildebrandtii, that was a good indoor palm in the victorian era. J.D Andersens have em at the mail order department. A 1G for $10 with shipping of course.
I have stayed away from the majesty mainly from threads like this. IDK if I want to put in the work to try and keep one alive. I really have enough plants that are cry babys and demand my attention 100% of the time. I don't think I need another.
njoasis you grow tree ferns? I just picked up a small cooperi on my green house expedition the other day and am working on gettin a 3 ft dicksonia imported at the moment. What kind do you grow
Mike, my tree fern went into a loft garage turned cold greenhouse back on the eve of Hurricane Sandy--along with everything else not tied down. Unfortunately, it died in the aftermath as there were other priorities--mostly involving chainsaws. But I can answer your question. Tree ferns need near constant moisture. I can't tell you how any I have lost! If you think Majesty palm is difficult, be warned, tree ferns ain't easy. Best is just to keep their containers in a saucer that always has some water in it. Also, cooler is better but cooperi cannot handle deep frost--though it grows faster. Of the two you mentioned, I like cooperi more. A couple of years ago I purchased a larger Dicksonia at HD. The thing started to burn outside in a shaded position, in a very humid summer when we had a record rainfall of 80 inches of annual rainfall. Dicksonia can handle drier air, more direct sun and more cold than cooperi. I believe I have read some people develop minor dermititis from contact with the fronds but I never had that problem.
Right now, the only 'tree fern' I have is in the genus 'Blechnun'. Mine is all green but there is one from Brazil that has red fronds on new growth and is very attractive. Both seem much easier than the ones you mentioned, but can be hard to find. Eventually, in the Spring, I will add some more tree ferns.
I swear your HD is a wonderland..palms and tree ferns we get nothing like that here. the cooperi I have is small but its comming along. hope to add a DA soon. I must find the one with red fronds sounds to cool. The heat is going to be the only problem here with normal temps in mid summer around 90-100 and 80% or better humidity IDK if they will like that to much no hurt in trying though.
I am actually having much better luck with Majesties since I posted this originally.
Mine goes outside April to the end of Oct. then goes into a bright basement that stays at around 70 f.. There is a fan on down there so good air circulation and fairly humid. Oh, and I keep it moist by keeping it in a saucer of water. The reason you see this plant sold so much is that it is cheap, and it is cheap because it grows fast. But it demands a lot of water and fertilizer. If kept too dry at he soil or w.r. to humidity, it gets prone to bugs, especially scale.
Tree ferns are NOT easy! I grow majesty palms without any problems (I let the one in my picture above die this year and brought 2 other smaller ones inside since those are greener). My majesty palms dry out pretty often and as long as they get a good soaking before it's too late, they dont mind at all. With tree ferns if it's not always moist (but never standing in water) then it will die.
I also have a hard time finding tree ferns here (the good local nurseries have them at expensive prices) so when I went to San Diego and found a beautiful Dicksonia antarctica for only $20, I had to get it. It was really expensive to ship so I made sure that it was getting the best care I could give it. October came and it was mild and dry and I forgot to water it for 2 days. I figured it wouldnt be a problem because it was in full shade almost all day long, but it declined fast! I thought it was going to die, but it started making fronds again last spring and now the fronds are slowly getting back to their normal size. I'd imagine that they are a lot easier to care for in the ground than as potted plants, if you ever do get a tree fern make sure you keep them well watered. They are great plants though so I do recommend giving them a try!
Here was my Dicksonia Antarctica at it's best back in the summer of 2011. It is much smaller than this now, but hopefully it will look like this again by the end of this summer!
These are really good palms for a beginner if you just remember to keep it wet, feed regular, and give plenty of sun light. They like bugs so keep a fan on them during the winter. I grew one once that got to about 6 inches of trunk, after that I experiemented on it to see how many ways I could try to kill it. It lasted a long time, the lack of water was what did it in. They can give you a tropical look for the least amount of money. They do like scale which could be a problem.

Owing to the uncertainty on the date of swearing-in, all elected TDP Municipal Councillors have decided to start working in the respective wards immediately. The TDP had won 32 out of the 40 municipal wards in the fort town.
TDP town committee president Prasadula Ramakrishna, his wife and former Municipal Chairperson Prasadula Kanaka Mahalakshmi, who are in the race for the post of Municipal Chairperson, chaired the meeting of elected councillors on Tuesday and decided to get down to business in wards.
Former floor leader in the Municipal Council V. S. Prasad said the Mushidipalli, Ramatheerthaalu and Nellimarla drinking water schemes that the Congress had neglected during the past nine years would be restored to their full capacity by containing illegal sand quarrying in River Champavathi and by laying back dedicated power transmission lines. Dr. Prasad alleged that the Congress had snapped the dedicated power supply lines and shifted the schemes to domestic supply lines thus causing hardship to people.
Mr. Ramakrishna said the council would also look into misuse of grants allocated for supply of drinking water to the town from the Tarakarama Theertha Sagar Project. He said the proposal for an underground drainage system remained at the blue-print stage and added that it would be taken up on priority basis to control flooding of low-lying areas during monsoon. TDP district general secretary I.V.P. Raju was present.

Bears GM: Playoff Misses Did in SmithLAKE FOREST, Ill. (AP) - Chicago Bears general manager Phil Emery says too many playoff misses and the inability to develop a productive offense led to coach Lovie Smith's firing. The Bears let Smith go Monday even though they won 10 games. Missing the playoffs for the fifth time in six years and the inability to fix the offense were simply too much to overlook, so they cut ties with their coach after a nine-year run that included a Super Bowl appearance.
Emery said Tuesday he'll be interviewing potential replacements over the next two weeks and would like to have one in place by the college All-Star games later this month. Emery sees Jay Cutler as a "franchise quarterback," although the new coach will determine if he's the long-term solution. He was noncommittal about Brian Urlacher's future.

if you're going AP Ezreal, what abilities are you going to use in order to "take them down quick"? W? Are you going to be using W to heal, or to attack? If you're positioning to do both, you're wasting time in a team fight. And W cd is too high to be doing both in a teamfight as well. E is about all you have, but you're saving that to chase/escape no? And your ult fires only once. I fail to see how his abilities are "nuke-like".
Secondly, what items would an AP Ezreal build around? Besides snowballing Mejai's, I don't see how Ezreal can possibly "dominate midgame" if his farming sucks early game with AP (which it usually does). And we all know that Mejai's is unreliable.
As for AD/DPS problems:
- it only scales with Q
well that's the only skill Ezreal really needs. It's cost-efficient, spammable, increase AS, and decrease cd. For all that, you'd be doing 400-500 or more depending on how far your build goes with just Q
- do enough dmg fast enough
how does an AP Ezreal propose to do that? By using W? I honestly believe Q dmg>W in everyway until late game. E is used for chasing right? And if you're blowing off Flash just to position E for one shot (and also going into the middle of the teamfight prob)...well, why not just snipe with Q multiple times? The only thing AP Ezreal has is his ult...
- squishy
I never understood this concept. AP Ezreal would take what..? Rylai's and RoA to avoid being squishy? While AD takes frozen hammer, can someone explain to me the difference?
- It leaves his other 3 abilities under-powered
Q is more useful than W or E. The only skill that's gimped is really your ult. However, the damage from Q makes up for that imo, but that's just me.
- he becomes good only for ks'ing
A sustained DPS from a far-ranged skill and increased AS for Q...i don't consider that ks'ing
If you can't line up your W to hit 1-2 of your allies and 1-2 of your enemies, you're doing it wrong. If you cant last hit minions early game for gold, you're doing it wrong. If you cant rely on your team to keep you from getting ganked during a team fight, they're doing it wrong.
The biggest detriment to the AP build is simply the fact that it takes more player skill to use abilities on slightly higher recasts then it does to spam Q and auto attack.
And people, seriously, look at his skill-set. That W screams Healer/Nuker. If you want a hero that is going to take someone from 100% to dead in 2 seconds, play Ryze. If you want someone who is going to take several enemies to 50% in 2 seconds and bring your own team up by a good 20-30% while buffing attackspeed/debuffing their attack speed, play Ez.
I'd like to introduce Zhonya's Ring to this discussion. I just wrote a guide about rushing to it which can be found here:
Zhonya's is great for an AP Ez because A) you don't have to rely on soul stealer stacks for AP and B) stasis is ridiculous on Ez. With stasis allowing you to go invlunerable for 2 sec you can easily go into a team fight and gank enemy carries then stasis and flash out. Or just tower dive like mad.
Personally I solve my mana problems with clarity and smart skill use. I have no problem last hitting with level 1 mystic shot so I never get any points in it beyond the first until late. Its so cheap at 35 mana that i dont really have mana problems while farming.
Sheen, Boots, Mejais, Lichbane or Trin Force, Gunsoos + Brutalizer or Deathfire + Zyonas- I like lichbane/death/zyonas the best but both work.
Runes move 2 speed quints, 1 mana quint, ap pen red, cd reduc blue, half dodge half mana regen yellow
Flash is still good on Ez even with is self flash.
1 point in Q, 1 point in W, Max E and ult with w/q last.
The reason you leave 1 point in q is for last hitting. You use q to harass 1-6 and last hit. Later you spam q to help cool you ult faster. In team fights you stay in the back, launch ult, spam q for cooldown reduction and w at allies and foes, or save ult and spam the other 2 and use ult to clean up runners if your team is strong. If they are weaker, you burn it quick to help them take down squishies quick and hopefully turn the fight your way.
I've been kicking ass with Ezreal.
I don't really know why people are complaining about mana issues for AP ez. I'm currently running a 9/0/21 spec, and have 2 tier 3 mana/5/lvl quints. Once I get chalice and hit about level 4 or 5, I really stop having mana issues at all. It can dip a little low after an ult, but that's about it. Maxing the passive mana masteries in utility and conserving mana during those first couple levels are the only tricks honestly. Mid to late game you should be able to spam just about everything you have whenever it's up, especially with regen added from Nashor's.
Silent Reaper
AD build is much stronger early game. Additionally, AD build is quite consistent.
AP Build gets stronger late game and surpasses AD build late game.
Now some people might say this is blasphemy but think about it this way.
Ezreal with LichBane, and AP items.
Spam mystic shot every 4 seconds = profit.
Also AP build doesn't make you die so dam often, which is something I have a problem with because I usually main tanks.
I seem to like AP better as a support/healer/dps instead of pure carry as AD

This longstanding jewel of Ambergris Caye rarely fails to impress. You'll find grand, colonial elegance on this well–manicured, lush piece of property about two miles south of San Pedro town. Victoria House's accommodations include stucco and thatched casitas with tile floors, and luxurious "Plantation Suites" and multi–bedroom, mansion–like villas around sleek infinity pools.
Arriving by boat, the San Pedro waterfront was bustling with activities. There were dive shops, restaurants, gift shops, vendors selling crafts on the beach and people just enjoying the sun and the wonderful Caribbean ambiance.
Securing a golf cart, the main means of transportation on the island, we headed for Victoria House. The resort is just south of the island's only town, San Pedro. Arriving at the resort and seeing the beautifully landscaped grounds and being greeted with typical island smiles and hospitality, I knew that this was going to be a getaway to remember.
The landscaping of the resort is immaculate, greenery and flowers abound. The long palm-lined stretch of white-sand beach is perfect for sunning or lounging in a hammock and has a complete dive shop at one end. Also, near the beach is the Admiral Nelson's Bar which, in addition to a great selection of drinks, has a fine food menu for lingering outside. One of the resort's spa options is having a massage on the beach.
Our accommodation was a luxury villa near the infinity pool, one of the several swimming pools on the resort. The villa is large with thatched roofs and very high ceilings. It is beautifully furnished, using furniture and details hand-crafted from local tropical hardwoods. The Caribbean influenced décor and art are very tasteful. With a full kitchen, large living room, and two bedrooms, the dwelling is luxuriously comfortable.
Of the 42 luxury guest rooms, some are of the tropical, thatched-roof design, such as our villa, and others are English colonial style—as Belize was an English Colony up to a few decades ago. Accommodations include the main lodge state room, ocean–facing casitas, grand plantation rooms, and several villas of varying bedroom numbers
Our meals were taken during the day at Admiral Nelson's and in the evening, with candlelight and a cool tropical breeze, outside at the resort's main eatery Palmilla Restaurant. All of the food was tastefully prepared, beautifully presented, and definitely gourmet.
We also took excursions in our golf cart for a short jaunt into San Pedro to shop at the fine crafts stores and to try the excellent restaurants available. A couple eateries of note were Kelly McDermott's Caliente—try the delicious Mango Chicken—and, close by, Chef Amy Knox's Wild Mango. Both are located on the beach with the special Caribbean ambiance.
According to the longtime (16 years) managers of Victoria House, Janet Woollan and Brent Kirkman, "It's the staff that makes it special." They have a staff of 85. Some have worked many years at the resort, including the dive shop which has had members of the same family employed since its opening. The staff and owners make this resort one of the finest on the island and have created a true ambiance of "barefoot" luxury. It is a perfect place for weddings and honeymoons (one year hosting 52 weddings) or for a romantic getaway. Returning to Ambergris Caye, we look forward to experiencing the same barefoot luxury again.

Building one's own house
My father, the same guy that moved every two or three years, gave me five acres behind the house he built. When I got out of the army he had sold it, "well I'll pay you for it, get you something else….." I had already drawn up rough plans for my house, two story, or maybe just one with a loft — I don't remember. Very Bohemian with a mattress on the floor, orange-crate furniture, candles in wine bottles — that sort of thing. Oh well.
My first "owner-built house" didn't come until years later. It was in the back woods of Nova Scotia. The materials were brought in by ox cart, mostly, as was the cast iron wood cook stove. It was one room with a loft and an area partitioned off as a bedroom. The little house sat on the top of a knoll between a river and a branch of the river. No power tools were used, just a hammer and a handsaw. We hauled water up from the river and our lighting was kerosene lamps. We built it later in the year, winter was coming. It started to snow as I was putting on the roofing. It was a great place to live, surrounded by wilderness. After the first year we sold it to a neurosurgeon from Maine who wanted a place "to get away from it all." I moved on, again, as my father had done all his life. It must be in the genes.
Still, years later, in my wandering I ended up in northern New Mexico
with the desire to build again. As before, I found a site on top of a knoll — this time surrounded by sagebrush. And, once again, got out my hammer and the same handsaw I used in Nova Scotia and commenced building. I started with one room, 8 x 16, finished that and immediately started building more rooms. Even so, the house remained small, under 800 square feet. As the years past and the house grew, I enlisted the help of others and started using power saws and the like. These were all powered by solar electrical system I had set up. Now, it's for sale – maybe time to move on again.
Six figures, making it big on Ambergris Caye, Belize, Central America
Story and photos by John Lamkin
A long time ago I started travel writing thinking it would provide me with a little independence, I could live wherever there was a mailbox (a mailbox is an archaic receptacle for hard copies of email, I think) and I loved to travel. But, before I had published my second article a divorce, the crazy 60's (I didn't inhale!) and life interrupted that career. Now, much later, I have resumed travel writing and I have that little bit of independence (and social security, and Internet).
Ambergris Caye (pronounced key), an island off the coast of Belize, Central America, was a place I had thought about going to for a long time. It can be a very exiting place. But, I'm not going to tell you how I went sailing, diving in the Blue Hole, snorkeling at the barrier reef (second largest in the world), fishing, para sailing, nor kite boarding. My island odyssey was a laid back one—hanging out on the beach in the tropical sun sipping something with a tiny umbrella in the glass. Maybe then taking the little golf cart—the main mode of transportation on the island–into the lively Caribbean town of San Pedro with its reggae sounds and many fine shops and restaurants, and for real Belize and real people, visiting Maria's Fruits & Vegetables. And, a stay in Ambergris wouldn't be complete without a visit to Jo and Chris (the very passionate chocolate lovers) Beaumont's small, artisan, Belize Chocolate Company where they make every batch by hand in a place where the Maya arguably created "chocolate". In the evenings we had quiet dinners outside by the resort's pool.
In the mornings my honey and I enjoyed eating a simple breakfast (including fresh squeezed orange juice and ginger bread from Maria's) outside, on the palapa-roofed porch of the villa. It was our luck that it happened to be the only vacancy they had at this luxurious resort—normally it would be $750 USD a night. It was way more space than we needed, but, all the same, it was perfect for easy, laid back island living. English is the official language of Belize having formally been British Honduras, a colony of the Crown. Most of the resort's staff also spoke Spanish and a few were Mayan speaking. A gardener walked by as I was enjoying my breakfast. "Hola, Buenos dias," I said. "Buen Dia," he replied with a smile. I didn't try Mayan, but he would probably have understood…or English.
The ads I see now for travel writing classes and workshops read something like, "Travel the World for Free! Earn Six Figures!" The reality is the six figures probably includes the dollar sign, the USD and the two zeros after the decimal point. This gig will pay me about $50 USD. That will put me way short of the six figures.
But, it's a beautiful, sunny day here on the island, a breeze is coming off the Caribbean, I had a cushy night's sleep in an über luxe bed, the gourmet food was delicious. The Belezian people are very friendly. Life is good. Isn't that worth six figures?
PS, I didn't believe the ads anyway.

Nizuc Resort and Spa, a touch of zen luxury in Cancun, Mexico
story and photos by John Lamkin
Driving the short ten to fifteen minute distance from Cancun Airport to the resort I was amazed at how beautiful the scenery was. Instead of going through the town of Cancun and down the long, crowded hotel strip this was an eye-pleasing, leisurely drive on a tree-lined, landscaped road.
Entering Nizuc, the first thing I noticed was the lush tropical landscaping and the modern architectural details. Next was the courteous staff, from valet, to concierge, to butler and on to the rest of the staff — everyone I met was extra friendly.
The beautiful lobby is luxurious with a touch of the rustic with water vistas, ponds, and fountains everywhere. Looking out one end of the lobby you see the small bay that fronts the resort and beyond that the many colors of the Caribbean. The shape of the bay and peninsula give the resort its name, Mayan for dog's nose. Nizuc has capitalized on the name, using the Mayan dog glyph everywhere.
Cancun is well known for its amazing white sand beaches and the awesome colors of the Caribbean. But Nizuc is one of the most fabulous locations along the entire coast from Cancun to the Riviera Maya. A tropical paradise.
We were shown by the concierge to our spacious suite overlooking the beach and the bay just in time to watch a couple of para-skiers gliding across the bay. The beauty of the room repeated the luxurious, openness of the lobby. Outside were table, chairs and chaise lounges for enjoying the spacious balcony. Every detail says luxury: the über comfortable king–size bed, fine furnishings, and in the bath suite, ultra-modern bathroom fixtures. The décor, the layout of the space, and the high–end amenities were the max in luxury and comfort. And, the view of the sunsets where spectacular.
The property was owned by the Mexican government, much before the development of Cancun. At one time one of the country's presidents had his beachfront home here. The home still exists, it's now a fine restaurant with premium views of the Caribbean, an infinity pool stretching its length, and a beach in front. The restaurant is surrounded by lush tropical growth and at one end a path leads past sleeping iguanas to a pier with a great view of the whole of Nizuc across the small bay and, turning around, of the ocean. It's a great place to watch the area's incredibly dramatic sunsets. The Mexican government sold it to a Japanese company a few years back. With construction almost done that company then sold it to a Mexican firm that brought in architects from Mexico City to finish and decorate the property. The result was a beautiful resort that stands apart. I call the style "Zen luxury."
If you really want to go in luxurious style get the Nizuc Suite or the Presidential Suite. Counting the outdoor lounging space with their own pool, both are more than 5,000 square feet. For the same luxury and a great ocean view go for the Penthouse suite.
Nizuc is a great venue for weddings, honeymoons and couple's retreats, but the family is not left out. There is a special building for children with all that's necessary to keep them entertained. Baby sitting service is also provided. There are many places around the property that allow privacy and seclusion for adults and couples though.
If you are into tennis, Nizuc has tennis courts and tennis programs with a PBI Tennis Professional. Nearby is a Jack Nicklaus golf course. Also available are 24–hour concierge service and several special services such as the Chef's table, private dinners, and wine pairing at the Santo Tomas wine cellar. The hotel does feature the very fine wines from Mexico's Guadalupe Valley—some rivaling the wines of Napa Valley or France.
Nizuc claims the best beach (one of two on the resort) in the area, located on a tranquil bay separate from the glorious waters of the Caribbean beyond. There is an abundance of beach chairs, chaise lounges, and places to enjoy the beach. Overlooking the bay and beach is a large infinity pool—one of three on the property — with an inviting swim–up bar.
A stay at the resort should allow enough days to try all of its fine restaurants. I had excellent meals in four and look forward to coming back and trying the rest. Nizuc employs some of the area's best chefs in their six gourmet dining spots. You try Cafe de la Playa on the beach; Ni restaurant for Peruvian cuisine; Ramona's, especially notable are Chef Bladimir Garcia's gourmet interpretations of Mexican cuisine; La Punta Grill & Lounge, casual outdoor atmosphere; Indochine for Asian fusion and finally Terra Nostra for Mediterranean style. There are three lounges at which to enjoy the drink of your choice. I recommend the awesome margaritas at La Punta.
Also your stay should include a visit to their fabulous 30.000 square foot, ocean–front ESPA spa. Recommended is one of the massages or oriental healing modalities followed by the complete hydrotherapy routine. This includes steam room, cold shower, sauna, sun room with wrap on a heated chaise lounge, the large room–size jacuzzi with many different types of jets and water massage device, then the cold room with cold mist and an ice fountain in one end to really chillwith. After these treatments you will be ready for more beach time (I was ready for a cool drink and hanging on the terrace of our room).
Tours outside of the resort can include several Mayan archaeological sites within a day's trip and the world's second largest barrier reef, which is not far away.
Cancun and Mexican Caribbean coast, already known for some of the finest hotels in the world, has raised the bar another notch with the opening of Nizuc Resort and Spa.
Getting there:
Most major airlines fly into Cancun International Airport (CUN) and Riviera Maya is easily accessible from CUN by land transport.

Nova Scotia Odyssey from Storied Wheels
John Lamkin
One might get the idea from the wagon wheels strewn the length of the trail from Barrington up to the Barrens that this was an ancient wagon-train road.
This story starts a long time ago, arriving in Nova Scotia after a cross-country journey in the old van, loaded with what was left of our worldly possessions after a couple of months unloading at flea markets. Worldly possessions had caused the axle of our van to break and the wheel to go off on its own as we were heading out of San Francisco on our odyssey. Deciding so many worldly possessions were a burden, we stayed longer and flea marketed some more, then got on the road again.
Jayme and I had bought 149 acres of Nova Scotia land sight unseen from a catalog of cheap land for 3,300 good old U.S. dollars.
We found that the land was about six miles upriver from the coastal town of Barrington with no passable roads, so we decided to get an ox. We borrowed a truck and went to Yarmouth where they were selling oxen. Moo (the locals thought we were crazy naming an ox Moo) was one of a young pair. We hated to separate them knowing that they had bonded, but he quickly became at home with us.
Now we needed a wagon and yoke, so we asked around. A local person knew of one that might be for sale. We went to look at it. It appeared to be in pretty good shape for its age (guessing about a hundred years). It came with extra wheels, which came in very handy later as we went through quite a few on the rough trails to the land.
Now we needed to paint the wagon (traditional red) and train Moo to pull it. I hitched Moo to the yoke, the yoke to the wagon and began the training (Moo or myself?). I went up and down the road many times trying to instill the idea of going forward, turning and stopping. Moo, on the other hand, tried to convey the idea to me that he didn't give a damn. At the end of the day we had both learned a little and I was covered, head to foot, with slow-drying red paint.
Moo helped immeasurably in building our small house, hauling materials up the six miles from town. We shared quite a few adventures the year we were there.
The sad ending to this story is that after a year of building and living in our house, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police told us that, being illegal immigrants, we had to leave or become deportees. Seeing little other choice, we loaded the wagon with our remaining worldly possessions, hitched up Moo and headed out. We found a buyer for the little house, a neurosurgeon from Maine, and sold Moo to people in the village with the understanding that he would have a good home until the end.

¡Otoño! The Arroyo Hondo Valley is alive with color
¡Otoño! The Arroyo Hondo Valley is alive with color. The fiery aspens on the Sangre de Cristo mountains have dimmed now, but there still fire in the Valley.
The acequia is running next to our house. It doesn't look like an irrigation ditch, it looks more like a small stream cascading down the gentle slope of the hill, next to the pond outside, next to our bedroom door — a beautiful way to wake up in the morning.
Morning walk in the Valley, on the rim of the Valley, beautiful. Cotton-like clouds in the pristine, blue sky. On the road a coyote crossed right in front of me just after I had turned my camera off. I tried to snap a photo when she was in the middle of the field but, being too shy, she would not cooperate. Many signs of animals: cottontail rabbits dashing across the road, new elk tracks — they probably came through just this morning. Bear scat in the middle of the road, lots of activity.
I hope where you live is this beautiful, this energizing, this life-giving.

Luxury in ancient Mayaland. Hotel Marina Copán, Copán, Honduras, Central America
Story and photographs by John Lamkin
One place that I think should be on everyone's bucket list is the amazing old Maya city of Copán. This is the best and most complete of the restored ancient Maya cities I've seen—and I've seen quite a few.
The next attraction on this list is the beautiful Spanish colonial, cobbled-street town of Copán—right next door to the archaeological site. This is a beautiful, clean and safe-to-walk-at-night town.
And, the best place to stay in Copán is Hotel Marina Copán. This excellent fifty-room hotel was the first hotel in the town and now the best. It is right near the main Plaza and less then a mile from the ruins. The architecture is Spanish colonial, with high, beamed ceilings and red tile floors and walkways. The bed frames and wardrobes are made of stunning tropical hardwood. Local artwork adorns the walls and plants abound. Room service may be had from early morning until late, when the restaurant closes and, if you are driving, the hotel has private secure parking.
The free-form swimming pool is in the center of the courtyard, surrounded by tropical plants and flowers and is very inviting to take a dip. The pool is surrounded by ample seating to eat or observe and has a waterfall and hot tub. There is a bar, Jaguar and Venado, next to the pool with inexpensive drinks and a tranquil atmosphere.
The hotel has a complete gift shop near the lobby, but, for one, I find shopping with the vendors on the street more enjoyable. The hotel does have a basic gym and sauna and massages are available on request. The WiFi is reasonably fast (actually better than I have at home).
The food in the two-story restaurant is enjoyable and inexpensive. Try the Honduran comida tipica—the local dishes of the country. The bilingual wait staff are friendly and helpful, always with a smile—which is typical to the country. The breakfast buffet is a gastronomical treat, with an egg/omelet chef to custom design that part of your meal.
The local Welchez family owns the hotel and it is managed by the two brothers. The family also has a coffee plantation to which they provide tours. The Welchez Coffee is widely distributed and available to purchase online. Their tour company, MC Tours, also provides tours to other local attractions. MC Tours has been in business since 1991 serving Honduras, Guatemala, El Salvador and Belize, and is the only mainland Honduras tour company with a full operation in Roatan Island. The Macaw Mountain Bird Park & Nature Reserve is a must see, with rescued birds—macaws, parrots, hawks, toucans and more. They also have a small coffee farm on site. The coffee is sold only in their gift shop. The coffee grown there, as with the Welchez' is a full-bodied blend—delicious.
I came here on a luxury tour with Maya Temple Tours from San Pedro Sula, the capital. Maya Temple Tours has great service and will customize a personal tour if you like. I was on assignment to do a Honduras luxury real estate article, so that was the focus of my personal tour. I would do it again in a New York, that is, Maya second.

Barefoot luxury in Placencia, Belize – Chabil Mar Villas
© John Lamkin
The driver took us a short way along this narrow peninsula that is Placencia, through the heavy, expertly carved, gigantic wooden gates and into this eye-popping lush tropical paradise. We had arrived at Chabil Mar.
The first thing I noticed was the verdant, tropical landscaping, flowers, shrubs, trees everywhere, and the ever present coconut palms lining the pristine, white sand beach. The next was the friendliness of the staff, including the driver that picked us up and took us there.
We were handed a cool, tropical drink and escorted to our villa by the friendly concierge, while all the way she was cheerfully explaining the ins and outs of the resort. One interesting fact was that there was no dining room. Eating was wherever you wanted—in your villa, on your deck/balcony, by the pool, near the bar in the charming palapa, with comfortable seating and a soothing sheet pratfall separating the space from the bar, on the wonderful dining deck overlooking the beautiful Caribbean—wherever you wanted. And, what we found was that usually one of the staff would find you around mealtime and ask where you wanted to eat. By the way, the food was excellent.
When we arrived at our villa, a spacious and luxurious, accommodation, we found that, being valentine's day, the staff had made the most elegant and exotic floral arrangement I've ever seen visiting these luxury resorts. It was replete with the customary swans, a giant heart with "BE MY VALENTINE" written in flowers—bougainvilleas, hibiscus, and other flowers. And, as we entered the front door, a path of bougainvillea petals had been strewn all the way to the bedroom with this fantastic arrangement covering the bed.
Our villa was tastefully decorated (all were decorated differently), with an ample, comfortable living room, dining for six (if you wanted the crowd) and a full kitchen with all modern appliances. The bedroom was also ample with its own balcony. The bath was beautifully appointed and next to it was a small room with a washer/dryer. You could live here indefinitely. On the bar, separating the kitchen and the living area, we found the daily Chabil Mar newspaper announcing the valentine's day dinner and activities, welcoming us and other arriving guests by name.
As we were finishing our welcome drinks at the umbrella table on our private deck, one of the amiable staff (as they all were) came by and asked us if we needed anything and if we knew where we wanted to eat lunch. We opted to eat right there, on the deck, surrounded by the profusion of blooming flowers.
Chabil Mar is an exclusive, small, boutique luxury resort with 22 lovely villas, two swimming pools, a newly expanded palapa (thatched roof) bar, a pier leading to another palapa over the waters of the Caribbean with seating, tables for dining and just a very tranquil spot to hang out and look at the beach or the stars. All this, along with the best stretch of white sand beach around, make this spot the penultimate in barefoot luxury.
Many of Chabil Mar's guests have the resort arrange one or more of the exciting trips offered–visiting the world's second largest barrier reef, sailing, diving, fishing (the chef will prepare a meal from your catch for you), or visiting ancient Mayan ruins, or the jaguar preserve, and many more. We opted for a little beach time and an occasional trip into town to look around or dine at one of the fine restaurants.
Chabil Mar is ideally situated between the Tropic Air terminal (which services many destinations in Belize as well as Roatan, Honduras and Cancun, Mexico) and the small town of Placencia–a short taxi or bicycle ride away (the resort provides bicycles).
English is the language of the country, making it an easy choice for people traveling from the United States and Canada, but it attracts Europeans as well who are looking for unspoiled tropical destinations to discover. It's less than half an hour by small plane from Belize City and there are frequent flights both in and out of Placencia, a place formally thought to be very difficult to get to.
Whether looking for a quiet, laid back beach holiday or an exciting, active visit, both can be found at this lovely tropical paradise.

Comment: Remove the Public (Score 0) 514
Democracy is NOT about people getting government to do stuff, regardless of what. It is about using the people's collective diversity and stability as one of the CHECKS on the government over-extending its power in any direction, i.e. throwing the bastards out.
It ought not therefore to matter if people in general were 100% wrong or 100% right on anything besides their judgement of the over-all state of affairs as affects they themselves (which is the only thing most of us can be trusted to grasp accurately at all).
Leave arguments about harm to lawsuits for damages. Let those who think they can mobilize capital, workers, ideas, and organization to produce goods and services that will provide an attractive investment attempt to do so, whether they frack, nuke, gene splice, rocket, Uber, burn coal, or whatever. Those opposed need not buy. Those damaged can sue. Those providing allegedly more attractive alternatives can try their luck too.

Correct component ports? some TVs have ports for output as well as input.
Faulty TV or Wii
try something else in the comopnet ports or try Wii on a diffenet TV or via another unit such as a PVR / DVD player

Hi All
If I leave the refresh interval input of the cache control builder as blank. What should happen to the method result cache refresh interval. Not able to figure that out from the document.
Since its an application level cache shared among users for a particular profile, would it be stored indefinitely or not cached at all or something else.

Re: Cache Control Builder: Refresh Interval left as blank?2013-01-22T18:19:22Z in response to aakash_kI'm not sure why it's not clearly stated in the documentation, but it looks like the Cache Control builder defaults to 300 if the timeout value is not specified or if it is not able to parse it as an integer value.
It would be safer to specify the timeout value explicitly, than to leave it blank, to be sure of what you're specifying.
I hope that info helps,

My relative has a GoClever Tab R75 and he put in too many patterns attempts so now it only says that you can log in with a google account, but he doesn't have one linked with the tablet itself.
Things I have tried, all of the possible combinations, I only have a power/reset/motherboard button to work with.
Reset button only shutdown's the tablet.
I got into an active mode with the motherboard + power button few times, but it gave me an android man with a red triangle.
Same goes for some rooted R75 link going around the forum, which I booted from the SD card.
There must be another way to fix this, it's not possible there isn't a solution in 2014, somebody probably knows, I hope they see this.
They somehow do it in repair shops.

on Android Market now! https://market.android.com/details?i...roid.colorlink
============= New update =============
A new download host(mediafire) was added because the old one is unstable.
The graphics and background music was improved so please try again. It's not the final version because I'm adding a tutorial. The final version will come in a few days!!
We develop a free game called Color Link and need help of testing. Please give a try and report for any bug/suggestion with your device model. We will attribute your name on our Android Market App page to thanks your contribution. Thanks a lot!!
Color Link is a very colorful new puzzle game from the makers of Paper War for 2 players.
There are 7x9 colorful squares on the board and you need to connect 4 or above tiles of same shape to earn score. Instead of swapping near tiles(like the rule in bejeweled), Color link let player swap tiles of same shape in anywhere!!
Simple rule but hard to master! The key is creating maga-chains to earn bonus points. Also, eliminate a longer link to generate special squares, such as the lightning squares and color bomb.
There are 5 game modes:
1. Clear squares as fast as you can and keep survive in Time Mode.
2. Eliminate the bombs and go next level before they explode in Bomb Mode.
3. Eliminate the squares and move the special Bones to the bottom in Bone Mode.
4. Collect specific number of color in each level in Collect Mode.
5. Relax play in Endless Mode.
Features include:
‧Simple but creative rules
‧Swap squares with same shape from anywhere

canna's sizes
I started a lot of canna's from seed that I got on the seed exchange this year. All of them germinated, and are now blooming :-) (great excitement). However, as the seeds were all mixed in, the canna that are growing are all mixed up too. I have one yellow, several pink, an orange and some red. Some are short, some are medium height, and some are tall. My question is this: is the size that my canna are now the size they will stay? Will the small be small and the medium be medium next year, or will they get bigger as they mature? I am just wondering so that I know where to plant them (according to height) next year. Thanks!
Is it possible that the ones on the left either get more water or better soil or something? More sun maybe? My Wyomings actually are different. I have 2 (well clumps really that started as 2 tubers) and the one is about 3 feet high at bloom and the other 5 feet.
However, in general, I'd say that seedgrown cannas would have genetic variations. They mnight all get a bit bigger next year than they were this year, but the general patterns would probably hold true, i.e if Canna 1 is half the height of Canna 2, then next year they'll be the same even if both taller.
