»Divadlo v Dlouhá
Divadlo v Dlouhá prides itself on its variety of productions. Whether it be a dramatic play, a rousing ballet sequence, a children's sing-a-long or a cutting-edge cabaret performance, everyone is sure to be entertained. The theater is also well-known for its high quality children-oriented productions, so be sure to mark your calendars and bring the kids for a night of culture and leave the video games at home.
Slotted into a shopping arcade behind the Kotva department store, this small cinema was previously known the Kotva Broadway. It typically shows first-run Hollywood films although the occasional Czech or Western European premiere also sneaks in.
»Sportcentrum YMCA
After sampling the thick gravies that Czech cuisine is famous for, it may be a good idea to head over to the centrally located YMCA fitness center. This well known organization offers many of the same services one can expect from any other YMCA around the world, including a weightlifting facility, swimming pool, sauna, massage and hair salon. For those who workout during regular business hours, child care is available. Normally, the facilities aren't crowded but it is best to avoid exercising in the evening. To cater to those who do not speak Czech, there usually is one English speaking staff member on duty.
»Municipal House (Obecní Dum)
Home of the Prague Symphony, the concert hall at Obecni dum (Municipal House) is known to music lovers everywhere as the main venue of the Prague Spring International Music Festival, a fixture on the European festival scene since 1946. The building itself is a wedding-cake triumph of art nouveau with decorations by Alfons Mucha and other highly-skilled decorative artists. If you're not in town for the Prague Spring Festival, you could take in a concert by the house band - the Prague Symphony - which plays a strong second fiddle to the Czech Philharmonic in the city's orchestra pits.
»Smetana Hall (Smetanova Síň)
Located in the Municipal House building, where several events of social, political, and cultural relevance are held each year, Smetana Hall is over a hundred years old, but is far from lacking in amenities. It underwent some major renovations between 1995 and 2000, and offers a total seating capacity of 1100. Works of the famous 20th-Century Czech artist Alfons Mucha (among others) adorn the interior. As you enter in the hall, hues of golden and angelic white engulf you, the performance area is constructed out of wood and elevated in a way that the entire audience can enjoy the performance without any hindrance. If you are planning on a special night with your date, this would be an ideal start for your evening.
»Divadlo Archa
Sine the time it opened with the performance of Japanese dancer Min Tanaka, Archa has presented compelling dance and musical performances of all genres to a discriminating audience. Some of the famous names that have performed here are John Cale, David Byrne, Meredith Monk, The Residents and Robert Wilson. Other artistes who have performed here include the best of Czech progressive art from the Agon Orchestra to the HaDivadlo and Goose an A String theater troupes. The hall's modest size means that no one is more than a few rows away from the action.
»Estates Theatre (Stavovské divadlo)
This theater is the oldest theater building in Prague. Count F. A. Nostic built the classicist structure with a richly decorated edifice between the years 1781 and 1783. There was extensive reconstruction work undertaken in the late 1980s and the theater reopened in 1991. The theater's early performances were works by W. A. Mozart and, since then, it has always been closely associated with the great composer. In December 1834 the song "Kde domov muj" (Where Is My Home) was played here for the first time, later becoming the Czech National Anthem.
»CNB Congress Centre
The CNB Congress Center, which is part of the Czech National Bank, is a venue where seminars, lectures, conferences, meetings and other important events are held. You will find all the big wigs and corporate people usually attending these events, but at times the place or the events are open to public. If you would like to attend an event here, please make sure you visit their website to find out further details.
»Štvanice Stadium (Zimní stadión Štvanice)
This nearly 80-year-old stadium is built entirely of wood and was the skating center of Prague years ago. The Czech Ice Hockey Team won several championships here in the 1940s and 50s though the stadium has gone through a severe decline due to poor repairs and floods. Finally, in 2002, the stadium was re-opened to the ice skating public.
»All Colours Theater
A variation on black-light theater with music, live actors in a huge variety of wild costumes and a whole bag of technical tricks. The current long-running show is Faust, based on Goethe's drama with elements of traditional Czech puppet plays. For complete schedule and show timings, check the website or call ahead.
»Collegium Marianum
The Collegium Marianum hosts a school, an ensemble, a festival, and various concerts. It is a pleasant, professional, and entertaining venue for all of its productions.
Rudolfinum is an elegant sandstone monument by the river and is a wonderful place to listen to classical music. An ensemble that many think of as the last proponent of the rich "Central European sound," considers the main Dvorak Hall its home. This ensemble is the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra, now conducted by the Russian emigre, Vladimir Ashkenazy. Chamber concerts are held in the Suk Hall. When the Czech Philharmonic isn't playing, you can hear anything from provincial Czech orchestras to the excellent Talich Quartet or the Prague Chamber Philharmonic, headed by ex-Czech Philharmonic conductor Jiri Belohlavek. It also houses the Galerie Rudolfinum where you can see the finest of contemporary fine art.

Blane Klemek column for April 4: Woodcock, snipe are a delight to see and hear
There are two closely related species of shorebird that I especially enjoy observing and listening to. Though the birds look similar and are sometimes difficult to tell apart if you're not familiar with either, these unlikely of shorebirds -- American woodcock and common snipe -- are widespread, seasonal Minnesota avian residents worthy of a closer look.

The 'Christmas Cactus' or Schlumbergera truncata - as it is otherwise known - is a plant of singular deceit. Although its botanical name is derived from Frédéric Schlumberger (1823-1893) - the well known French collector of cacti and other succulents – the plant was neither discovered by him nor named by him. In fact, it received its name through another Frenchman - botanist and botanical author Charles Antoine Lemaire, a contemporary expert of the Cactaceae genus and colleague of Frédéric Schlumberger.
Between 1814 and 1816, and on the recommendation of Sir Joseph Banks - President of the Royal Society, founder of the Royal Horticultural Society, and unofficial director of Kew Botanic Gardens - Allan Cunningham was sent on an expedition to Brazil aboard the HMS Mermaid. Under the employ of the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew, he was tasked to collect, document, and bring back to England any new and unknown plant species – particularly those that may have valuable economic importance. Amongst the many new species that were discovered on this - his first - journey, was of course an unnamed, tree dwelling cactus.
Despite the high rainfall encountered within the Brazilian rainforest, water drained away quickly in the tree canopy, mimicking the drought conditions encountered by the more familiar members of the cacti family.
Not surprisingly, because of their specialised environment, these epiphytic cacti are quite different in appearance to that of their desert-dwelling cousins.
So why are they called Christmas cactus?
They have developed their own 'Christmas Cactus' custom of decorating a decent sized, indigenous cactus the same as you would a 'normal 'Christmas tree. The Schlumbergera truncata is not that cactus.
Unsurprisingly, the Schlumbergera Christmas cactus – apart from flowering over the Christmas period – has nothing to do with either the Christmas tradition or the story of Christ's birth.
Its common name derives only from its ability to flower at the right time, and so I apologise to anyone who has been misled by implied marketing. However in all fairness, it isn't really the plants fault – it's all down to the French, or is it?

Need recommendations for a new condo patio grill
I just finished updating my patio and its time for a lp grill. Never owner one before, only charcoal. I am in a condo and the patio is fairly small. Also, I usually only cook for myself and sometimes one or two others, so I don't need anything large. And it would probably be used once or twice a week at the most. All I want is a decent grill at a decent price.
I like the look of stainless, but can do without it since most if not all grills within the price I'm looking for are cheap stainless anyway. I had it narrowed down to one Kenmore for $200 which seems to get good initial reviews. But don't know how well it would hold up. But, everyone I talk to and everything I've seen online seems to say very good things about Weber.
So, if I do get a Weber, it would be either a Spirit E-210 ($300) or E-310 ($400). Are these decent grills or should I consider something else in this price range or just go with the Kenmore? I want something that is going to last and be mainly problem free for a few years.
I'm sorry to say that IMHO those cheap grills won't last more than a year or two before the burners, grates and other stuff will rust out. Specially if you're near the ocean. If you don't mind changing the guts every so often, then ok.
Consumer Reports just did a review of grills. I think they liked the Webber. And you should be able to get replacement parts for both fairly easily.
Two posts to the same guy in minutes has got to be a record. Answered your 3 or 4 burner post and thought you were set on a Ducane. Anyway I just bought a Weber Spirit 310 and am learning to cook on it. Its different than my last one as its elements are front to back horizontal tubes whereas my old one (Charbroil lasted about 4 years) had 3 individual ones from right to left.
A great thing they don't mention about this unit is the ease of cleaning. Of course they talk about the grease pan that you can use aluminum pans in but they don't talk about the fact that the WHOLE BOTTOM of the grill slides out for cleaning. No wonder there's no flare ups. No more removing grates and working around burners to clean the drippings that got stuck.
Check my post to your 3or4 burner question for other answers.

Round-Up Before Tilling?
I am about to re-sod my front lawn. I have no choice. We had a huge Bradford Pear tree that took away the original grass to tumble on us last fall. Now that the summer is approaching I am having the soil lightly tilled and smoothed for the laying of new sod.
The gentleman who plans to do the tilling suggested I spray the weed infested and sparsely left Burmuda grass (what you can see of it) with Round Up and kill off everything before tilling. He plans to till down only 4-5", not a major deep till. I do have those pesky tree roots still in the ground from the stump grinding that are already sending up new shoots. So they have to go and they are out in every direction.
My only concern is, what kind of residue will the Round Up leave that will be turned over and turned into the soil? I am not so concerned about it harming the new sod as I am the possible prevention of or the killing off of those good earthworms and such.
Would I be tilling poison into the earth. Or should I be okay? And how long should I wait before having the sod laid if I do use the Round Up?
And....................If I do not use the Round Up, will I be tilling those weed seeds back in for later growth? For I have seen weeds come right up through Burmuda sod and I don't care how much folks have said it should choke out the weeds. They do raise their nasty little heads right up through that thick tuft. Grrrrugh....
DO NOT TILL, use the round up, wait a day, fertilize and water it in deeply in to make the existing Bermuda grow for a week, then nuke it again with RU. Repeat as many times as necessary till the Bermuda dies off completely and wait at least one-week for the RU to completely degrade before laying sod.
Day before you lay the sod scalp the lawn down as low as you can, rake up and bag all the debris, then rent a power rake aka vertical mower to loosen up the top 1/2 inch or so of the soil, then lay the sod down
If you till you will have several years of leveling and smoothing to do plus a bumper crop of weeds to fight.
I am in the same position and have been doing a lot of studying.. Just finished killing off my weeds and grass. I beleive the round-up bottle says 3 days before planting, but what I have found on the internet, more like 7 days. I had to spray twice (which is what will normally happen). I would spray, wait 5-7 days and spray again, then till 5-7 days later.
As Round-up kills by absorbing into the leaf of the grass, it should have no effect on your earthworms as it should be evaporated by the time you till.
By the way, if you can find someone who can power rake (with a Harley Power Rake), it may be better than tilling as some will say that tilling will wake up the 100's of years of dormant weed seed. Unfortunately, I live in a small Tennessee town and tilling seems to be my only option.
Unfortunately, I live in a small Tennessee town and tilling seems to be my only option.
Maybe, or maybe not as there are options. If the yard is rather small and your soil is not hard pan just use a garden rake to loosen up the soil.
Another option we use a lot is what we call a SUGAR COAT. All that means is a light top dressing of sand, peat (not peat moss), or quality top soil.
Trick is is you have to scalp the yard and remove all the debris. If you use a garden rake to remove the debris, loosen up the soil at the same time and kill two birds with one stone.
JawgaPeach you got your answer right about the Bible?
WOW! A vertical rake??? I have never heard of such. But you better believe I'll find someone with one. Are they difficult to use? I googled a pic of it. They look quite harmless as long as I keep my feet from out under it. Wonder if I can find a place to rent one.
This could save me a few hundred if I dismiss the tilling team. In which I will now have to. TW are you close to the Atlanta area? You're hired! LOL
No nothing on the BB yet. :(
Thanks for such valued information. Priceless...
WOW! A vertical rake??? I have never heard of such. But you better believe I'll find someone with one. Are they difficult to use?
No they are real easy to use just like a lawn mower. Find a Home Depot, and you found one to rent along with about any rental place that rent lawn power equipment.
No nothing on the BB yet. :(
You sent me an email, and I replied back with the link. Did you not get it? I would post it here but they would terminate my account if I did.
Got it! Thanks so much. If I had checked my email before my last post, I would have seen it. Duh.... What a lot to learn. It truly is a Bible on lawns. I especially love the fact that it's organic.
Back to my dilemma. I am taking your advice and not going to till. Question is I still face this Bradford Pear tree root problem.
Technically I live in the Kennesaw suburb of Atlanta (about 18 mi. north of the city) you don't happen to be close in proximity do you? LOL
Do you know of an easier way to get out these long roots other than a good ole shovel on a post rainy day? Not sure a vertical rake will do much for these roots, or will it? I'm so excited about this project except for the root job. UUgghhh......
Have had a cold snap here in "MID-MAY"!!! can you believe that? it's 47 degrees here at present so my Round Up project has been put on hold. Double GRRRUHH!!!!
Oh yea. Just for curiosity sake. Why do I need to water the yard a few days after applying RU?
Thanks again TW
Wow Jawga I will try to answer most of your questions.
No I live about 2000 miles due west of you. I now reside is Prescott AZ now, retired and working my 3rd career as a golf course supt. Doesn't pay much of anything, just keeps me occupied, free golf, and the eye candy is fantastic. Adolf my German Shepperd loves to run around with me on the course. He keeps those mean ole squirrels, cats, and desert quail away from me. I have never seen so many quail in my life as we have hear. They are everywhere you look.
If you dig the roots out, you have to replace the displaced soil so you might just let Mother Nature do her thing. If you have a good lawn tractor, you can dig up the large end that was nearest the tree and get a rope or chain around it. Then you can use the lawn tractor to pull it up. But warning if there is any underground utility or water pipes above the root, you will rip them up as well.
The water thing is you want to get the Bermuda growing as vigorously as possible by watering and fertilizing. This is why you want to wait until it is good and warm. RU is most effective when temps are warm, and the target is rapidly growing. RU will not phase dormant Bermuda. In fact you can use RU on a dormant Bermuda lawn in winter to kill anything green (weeds) like Poa.
ARIZONA!!!!! You have some nerve living sooo far away from me!!
Okay TW, picture this. A small 1/4 acre yard. And I am only re-sodding half of that. A 2 pallett sod job. I own a weed eater, a small non propelled $90 lawn mower, a garden rake, shovel and hoe. So when you say lawn tractor I have to roll my eyes, drop my jaw and hit the floor laughing.. I wish!
However...................I do have a car. So................if I can find some way to hitch those roots to it, (don't worry, I wont tie it to the bumper) I think I could go that route. What do you think? The water line is under some of the roots (maybe 2 or 3) but doubt that the roots are deep enough to affect it.
Although the tree stood for 12 years. I am concerned as to how to attach the rope or whatever I use, tight enough to not have it slip off. I have a 1/2" drill bit. Maybe drill a hole through the thick end of the root and run the rope through it? Thinking out loud here.
By the way. After a few hundred phone calls I did find a place that will rent me this power rake. They call it a Verticutter. Also known as a dethatcher, vertical mower, and as you have said, a power rake. Geeze..........too many names......I can get it for $71 a day or half that for 4 hrs. And told it would fit in the trunk of my car. I am thinking about an early visit to go and see it before I decide to bring it home or have them deliver it. I live 2.1 miles from the rental facility. They want $55 each way. I gasped..... are you gasping???
So here's my list of MORE questions for you. LOL
1. Would you happen to know how deep those tree roots could be? If I can see all the way around the root at the thick end OR the tail end, wouldn't you guess they were pretty shallow midway of the root? The thickest end of the roots are about 2" in diameter or possibly 2 1/2". Don't worry, I won't hold you liable for any conjectures or advice.
2. It seems these power rakes have depth settings on them. What setting do you recommend ?
3. How would you attach the rope to the root to pull it out? and would you even use rope?
4. Would you use your car if there were nothing else?
5. I was hoping to bring in some highly screened topsoil mixed with some black manure to smooth out over the ground before I lay the sod. What do you think?
6. Is there a way to go straight to my post here without having to scroll the topics? It's alright for now, but if I have more questions 2-3 weeks from now after the weeds are dead, scrolling to hunt for my thread could take as long as it is taking for me to write this......
7. Is this enough questions for today?? LOL God bless your soul..........
Okay TW. Awaiting your help once again...................... You're such a dear one..........The patience of Job...........
I might have more questions once I am into this thing. He is such a wonderful help. Hey! It's his fault! He told me what to do and by golly I'm doing it. I know he is right and will lead me to a beautiful lawn if I follow his advice. Besides, the reason I cram so much in is because it seems we can only add one reply per answered post. Leading one to having to get it all in while it's fresh on the mind.
I have always been rather blessed with adventures that were far more "could possibly go wrong" than this. The Lord has always been good to me and watches out for me in all my endeavors. I think He made me this way so as to get a few laughs for Himself. For I have never had any problems or failures in many of the quirky adventures I have taken on.
I also go slow and listen for sounds that could indicate a problem around the corner. My risks of this sort are always calculated. So if I hear the slightest notion that my car is about to come apart whilst pulling these roots, you better believe I'll halt the entire project and head down to the local town square at 7 a.m. and hire me a bunch of good Mexicans.
If anyone reading this has any answers to my questions I will be more than happy to see the list lessen for TW. However, compared to all he writes on this site, my few questions are but a drop in the bucket. He is amazing....
So do you know how to return here without looking all over the place for your thread or post?
Enjoyed your comments....
Geez Jawga give me a break or send a check please :>)
1. The roots of a Bradford Pair are shallow and run horizontally just under the grade.
2. Yes both depth and space between the blades are settable. If seeding set space to as close as possible, and depth to no more than 1-inch, 1/2 inch is good. All you want to do is loosen of the top portion, not till. You can even spread some starter fert before you rake to help work it in the soil.
3. Use rope and go to a Boy Scout, Navy Bosa Mate, or tower climber to learn how to tie a TIMBER HITCH which is a form of a HITCH Know. Another method is the Zigzag aka Backtracking Hitch.
4. No comment. I do not know how you can obtain the proper angle with a car or truck.
5. Good idea, goferit. Apply just before you power rake to work it in.
6. Do not know how to do that as this is antique/outdated forum software. If I were you, I would just start another thread when the time comes.
7. Send check and I will get over it.
Back to the roots. I advise you Let Mother Nature take care of it especially if they are underground. For the areas where the roots are above ground cover with top soil and grade it out. Would hate to see you get hurt or yank up a electric, water, sewer, gas, CATV, or telephone line. That gets real expensive real fast, and can even kill you if it is gas or electric. Be careful and choose wisely.
Now TW you know I offered you a donation and you wouldn't take it. LOL Betcha regret it now. Thanks for all your help. I went to You Tube and found the timber hitch knot. What an easy knot for such big jobs. I will include the links at the end of this post in case anyone else is interested. These are very good knots to know.
Believe it or "knot" LOL....... I think I have all my answers and am ready to begin. Plan to spray the 1st round of RU Sat. Had the right temps today but the winds were up.
Thank you again and I will post before and after pics once finished in a new thread. And might throw in a few fun ones like "dragging out the roots with Lexus ES". LOL
You are a marvelous help.
Oh yea. I just bookmarked this post and can now come straight to it. Always more than one way to skin a cat.
Here's the video links on how to tie a Timber Hitch. Both are quite good.
On the Timber Hitch use 3 loops, not 2 as shown. Also use at least 2 or more Half Hitches, the video only showed 1. If you do that and tie them correctly, the rope will break before it slips off in most cases.
Warning and listen good. Clear everyone out from the area, and make sure the driver of the car, truck, or tractor has protection in case the rope does slip or break. It is the kind of rubber band snap that can sever heads and limbs off. I am not kidding, be careful.
This needs to be on video and made into a Lexus commercial........
"The Lexus ES, the multi-functional, luxury vehicle. Now available with a tree root removal package". Lol.
What a marvelous idea N&W! I think you are much funnier than me! I am sitting here laughing my butt off!!!!
Thank you TW for all the extras on the timber hitch tie. I will be sure to have those windows up and probably the air running. :) I think it helps to know that it is as you say as far as the roots to this tree being very shallow. And of course the root area will be filled in with good dirt... Ya'll be patient as far as the uprooting goes. We're looking at around 2 more weeks for that stage of it.
I'm in Acworth. I would loan you my power rake, but it needs a new engine. Finding a rental that has the correct blades is difficult. Your best bet would be to find a slit seeder. You don't have to use it with seed. Everything else around here is a de-thatcher that uses flail blades. You need one with delta knives.
I would just burry the roots with some top soil and lay sod on top.
I would just bury the roots with some top soil and lay sod on top.
I have been trying to convince her to do that, but she has her mind made up. One thing I have learned in my short 58 years on earth is when a women makes up her mind, don' argue with them even if they are wrong. Just say: "
you right dear, I am sorry, and it will never happen again". Do that and everyone will be happy. :>)
Now TW.......I have re-read your posts here and I don't see where you have told me to not do anything but use either a hand rake or a power rake to get up all the debris.
Here's your quote: "Day before you lay the sod scalp the lawn down as low as you can, rake up and bag all the debris, then rent a power rake aka vertical mower to loosen up the top 1/2 inch or so of the soil, then lay the sod down."
Did you tell me to not use anything and just put down good soil on top and lay the sod? I will if that is your ultimate advice. I never knew such an animal existed before you........Hey, you know more about this than I do.
I will not use the dethatcher ( power rake) if you say so. Lordy, what do I know. I was merely taking your advice. But if you say don't use anything to remove the dead debris but a hand rake, you better believe that is all I'll use.. It will be similiar to raking cement but I will do it. Besides, I will fair better monetarily if I don't rent anything. So you just give the word and I won't touch this ground with any machine until it's time for my first cutting on the new sod. "Girl Scouts honor"........
Now Wrager! You are nuttin but a big tease. Here you are telling me you have a dead machine that will do the job about 8 mi. from me. Thanks a lot! Hope you enjoyed it! LOL You're welcome to come down and see the project if you'd like. Do you have a camcorder for root removal day for Near&West? I know she'd love that!
Bought a 32oz. "Grass Killer" today and used a hose end sprayer set to 10tbs. Went through that like like candy. Off to get a gallon concentrate of the stuff. It has more of the "G" stuff in it than RU.
Come on down Wrager!
No ultimate would be spray twice with RU, mow, remove debris, and hire a contractor to come in with a tractor and box blade to regrade the area and then lay the sod.
Minimum is as I suggested RU, mow, rake, and loosen up the top 1/inch of soil. To take it one step further bring in some top soil or compost to apply a sugar coat. For safety I would leave the roots and bury the exposed roots with top soil providing it does not cause drainage problems to your home of lot.
Without actually seeing things all I can do is give it my best guestimate.
Weed: You are taking all the fun out of this. Please re-advise so that JawjaPeach can use the multi-functional Lexus ES with the tree root removal package. I really do need a good laugh.
And to you JawjaPeach: I am not a "She"!!! I am most definitely a multi-functional "he". Lol.
Sorry about that "MR." Near&West. LOL
My Dear TW. There's not a landscaper here that I know of that would want to touch my little ole p-nut job. We're talking about a very small part of a very small yard. I am waiting for my new....ahem.......Macbook Pro....... to be delivered tomorrow and when it arrives I plan to download the driver for my camera. Once installed I will bring pics to the party and then you will see the postage stamp I am trying to repair. A landscaper would look at me and laugh...
The root area alone is the largest part of it all. Unfortunately I cannot leave the roots because #1 they will be in the way, unless I want sod with humps in it. They are sitting right on top of the ground. And # 2 They are sending up new shoots. And #3 One is headed straight for the driveway and will have it cracked by next spring if not sooner. So they will have to come out. I cannot believe these things are still alive being cut off from the mother trunk. Have you ever heard of such?
Now get this.........When the stump grinder came and did his thing. He left a hole so deep in the ground that one could bury a body there. I mean it was about 4'deep. So because of that I poured close to 40 bags of topsoil combined with "Moo-Nure" into that burial site.
The place where the tree was- was in a raised mound. And not thinking that I would need to dig back into that area to find the beginning of the roots, I raised that area with MORE bags of topsoil and "Moo-Nure" to about a foot high. THEN!!!!! Covered it in black velvet mulch to protect the dirt from running off in the rain. For I plan to bring in a Muscogee Crepe Myrtle (lavender blooms) and plant some flowers in that raised bed. Then build a low natural stone wall around the front and sides of the bed.
So what we're looking at here is a small postage stamp with root tenacles spreading from the center of the yard that are buried under a foot high round mound that is about 8' in dia. We call it the pitcher's mound. Can't wait for you to see the pic. So now.............AFTER all the weeds are dead and removed, I will have to go back to the mound, rake off the protective mulch, drag it somewhere in the yard, (I haven't a wheel barrow I use a tarp) shovel down the mound, (I plan to just sling the mound dirt all over the yard) smooth it down, then dig in and around the smoothed out mound for those root heads and pull up or dig up enough root to get it attached to my built in Lexus root pulling pkg.
And I tell ya TW, by the time I find enough root to apply 2-3 more half hitches, I'll probably be near the end of the root and might as well just dig the whole thing up. LOL..... Don't worry, I'll do as you say.
Now here's another funny thing. My dear sweet neighbor has her house up for sale. Can you imagine when people drop by to view the house what they are going to think when they see the house next door with a yellowing and browning yard with an 8' black mound in the middle of it???? Oh well.......
Lastly, I inherited this house. My home is actually about 15mi. from here. I landscaped it myself and have to say, it is gorgeous. It truly is a magazine yard. Sorry but after 10 years of cultivating it with trees, shrub, flowers, stone and boulders, it is worth a sentence of brag. I will include a few pics of it when I bring the pics of this project here. I am especially proud of my 10 year old "New Dawn" rose arbor. It is a flourisher and covered in beautiful white blooms as I write this. My neighbors take their family portraits in front of it when their families come in town. I have Zoyzia grass there.
Hey TW. I'll be 58 in July. How did you get to retire so young? My work will take me to the day I die. But that is alright, I love it. I am an artist. I paint huge and I mean huge contemporary silk paintings, float them in large sheets of glass and then are suspended in either large homes. restaurants, hotels, etc.... My studio is at my "other" home.
Oh yea. And one more thing. I used this "Ultra Kill" grass and weed killer yesterday. Now it was 90 degrees here and total sun. As far as early signs of kill?? = NOTHING! I went online to read about this stuff and it is going back to Lowes today. It has been listed at Ripoff.com. I thought since it had 25% of the "G" stuff in it as opposed to RU's 2.5% that it would make a mean strike. What a joke. SO buyers beware. It is pure junk. It is called "Ultra Kill" Weed and Grass Killer by Chemisco. Avoid it all costs. Fortunately I ran out very quickly (32 oz. experiment) and began spraying where I'm clearing a 4' wide run alongside the house to plant 12 Butterfly bushes. So whatever residue this junk left in the soil will be dug up for planting. I thank God that there was only a small strip applied to the front lawn where I am working on this project.
Also I bought two 32 oz. bottles of Ortho's "Total Kill" for it touts 41% of the "G" stuff. Before I opened it I read online where it does do the job but is VERY slow. I don't have time for VERY slow. So it goes back today for a gallon of RU concentrate in exchange. So I am still on phase 1. I will be coming back here often to keep you all abreast.
My my, I do say "So" alot don't I?
Until next time............................
Take an axe and pair of loppers to the above ground roots, leave the buried roots in the ground. Deal with any sprouts by regular mowing.
Glyphosate is slow to show results but if you gave them a good spraying thay are dead already, they just don't know it. You can use a combination of glyphosate and diquat as diquat gives the overnight wilting but I think this is more of a "feel good" action for the comsumer. Leave the plot for a couple of days while the chemical translocates throughout the plants.
Hey TW. I'll be 58 in July. How did you get to retire so young?
Pretty simple really anyone can do it. I planned for it when I graduated from high school. I lived below my means, paid cash for everything, saved 20% of every dollar I made and invested it. I could have retired at 45.
Now with that said I have retired 2 times already and now working again part time as a golf course supt in Prescott AZ. Doesn't really pay anything, but I do not do it for the money, just do it to have something to do when I am not playing golf, fishing, traveling, raising mators, or get tired of goofing off.
TW you had a very good raising. Either you or your parents taught you well.
Have any idea as to what kind of rope I need for pulling up those roots?? What do you think about Weed Cutter's advice? (see above) Those roots will have to come out. I don't want bumps under my purty new sod.
TW you had a very good raising. Either you or your parents taught you well.
Thank you it was my Father who taught me, but I was slow. My siblings did very well as they have been retire for years and younger than I. Heck even their kids, grand kids, and beyond are taken care of. Only regret is I did write a book like Dave Ramsey did which is about the same model.
As for a rope I like double braid nylon as it is soft and binds well.
TW: You can't use the actual code. You need to escape the brackets. Here's the code for the picture above:

Types of Web Pages
The World Wide Web is an extraordinarily rich source of information. However, sifting through documents retrieved from the vastness of cyberspace can be a daunting task. It is not unusual to find a mixture of invalid, authoritative, biased, or objective information among your search results. Savvy searchers have learned to identify web page "types" and to apply evaluation criteria to help them find high quality information that supports their research topic.
What does the URL (Web address) say about the producer of the web site, and its purpose?
|Government agency
|Internet Service Provider
|Commercial site
|Higher education
|Military site
|Organization; may be charitable, religious, or a lobbying group
Anyone is able to get a .net, .com, or .org account. However, .gov & .mil sites are limited to government agencies and .edu sites are limited to higher education organizations. Because of this fact, .gov and .edu sites tend to be more reliable than the others, are not merely anonymous resources.

- New domain names include .museum, .info and .biz, among others. Read more about them at InterNic FAQ on Domain Names.
Web Search Hint: You can actually limit web searches by these designations by using the "site:" feature. For instance, if you wanted to search for economic statistics but wanted your results to be limited to government sites you can search 'economic statistics site:.gov' and your results will be limited to goverment websites. Similarly, if you were looking for information on military benefits, you might try the search 'benefits site:.mil' to uncover all military web site information on benefits.

If you're a fan of Aussie fashion mag Frankie like I am, you'll be happy to know that those of us outside of Australia can download Frankie issues from their website. Yay! I did not know about this until recently when one of the editors let me know via a tweet. Of course, there's a fee involved for each issue, but if you love the magazine you'll no doubt have little problem shelling out the cash for your own personal copy to support it. Though I'm a bigger fan of the hard copy over the electronic because I'm old school and since I fear more and more mags may fold for good, I think that when magazines want to reach out to a broader, international market that it's wise of them to have electronic versions available.
I guess in the end if I cannot have a hard copy of Frankie I guess an e-version will have to do… :) Find out more information on how to get your hands on these here.

I received an email last week from Utterly Engaged and totally forgot to post about them — so this post is long overdue. Have you heard of this wedding e-zine? It's so inspiring, whether you are engaged or not it's like Martha Stewart Weddings — you don't need to be walking down the aisle to appreciate the beauty of it and draw inspiration from its pages.
Utterly Engaged is a lovely e-publication, you can flip through it online and enjoy it 24/7, I spent some time on Sunday flipping around and here are some of my favorite images from it. I hope you visit them online and see for yourself, it's so charming!

The moment I spotted this little red, white and blue cottage in Hus & Hem I was in love and thought it would be the ideal spot to escape to this weekend for the long holiday break.
Located near the coast just south of Copenhagen, Denmark this cozy cottage oozes with charm and spirit. I adore the eclectic aspect of it all but what I appreciate most is how happy and full of life and energy it is. Plus, the kitchen is adorable. I really like how well the recycled furniture, flea market finds, vibrant paint and a mix of explosive patterns has transformed this place, owned by Lan and Brian Frandsen and their 4-year-old daughter Frida Mei, from a dark den (before they moved in) to a bright retro paradise. I read that most of the furniture came with the house when they purchased it but since it was not their style they brought in a few cans of paint and went to work, mixing in their flea market finds and IKEA goodies of course.
I love the quilt in Lans and Brian's bedroom and found out that it was made using a combination of retro fabrics and new ones from Liberty in London. To view more beautiful homes, make sure you visit Hus & Hem online.

Both of my LCD televisions are capable of 3D display, but there seem to be few if any actual programs transmitted in the format.
I was looking around for a pair of the special glasses and discovered that they range in price from a tenner or so, all the way up to fifty quid.
Is it worth shelling out for a pair, or are they really only suitable for Blu-Ray DVD use?

Loic Duval's Audi Le Mans stand-in Marc Gene confident he is ready
|By Gary Watkins
|Thursday, June 12th 2014, 13:00 GMT
Marc Gene is confident he will straight up to speed when he takes Loic Duval's seat in the #1 Audi R18 e-tron quattro in second Le Mans 24 Hours qualifying.
The Audi reserve driver has been recalled from the Jota Zytek LMP2 squad after Duval's accident in practice on Wednesday.
He revealed that he has had four days of testing in the all-new 2014 R18 this year.
"I had four days, two two-day tests at Paul Ricard and then Aragon," said Gene, who joins Tom Kristensen and Lucas di Grassi in the #1 Audi.
"I felt quite good, especially in the second one, which was only one month ago."
Duval's test crash cause unknown - includes exclusive pictures
Gene, who won Le Mans with Peugeot in 2009, believes that his mileage with Jota in the Spa World Endurance Championship round last month and then during practice and qualifying at Le Mans on Wednesday will prove crucial.
"Audi put me at Jota [in the seat that Filipe Albuquerque occupies in the European Le Mans Series], and it was the right thing to do to keep me up to speed.
"It was better doing Spa in another category than not doing Spa."
Gene said he feels no pressure heading into the double-points WEC blue-riband event at Le Mans at the weekend.
"I couldn't have much better team-mates in Tom and Lucas.
"I was with Lucas last year and he is one of the best team-mates I have ever had and Tom is such a team player.
"We had a briefing today and they told me everything I needed to know."
Gene's place in the Jota Sport Zytek-Nissan Z11SN alongside Harry Tincknell and Simon Dolan has been filled by Oliver Turvey, who was a frontrunner for the team in last year's ELMS.

Termite gut flagellates are colonized by host-specific lineages of ectosymbiotic and endosymbiotic bacteria. Previous studies have shown that flagellates of the genus Trichonympha may harbour more than one type of symbiont. Using a comprehensive approach that combined cloning of SSU rRNA genes with fluorescence in situ hybridization and electron microscopy, we investigated the phylogeny and subcellular locations of the symbionts in a variety of Trichonympha species from different termites. The flagellates in Trichonympha Cluster I were the only species associated with 'Endomicrobia', which were located in the posterior part of the cell, confirming previous results. Trichonympha species of Cluster II from the termite genus Incisitermes (family Kalotermitidae) lacked 'Endomicrobia' and were associated with endosymbiotic Actinobacteria, which is highly unusual. The endosymbionts, for which we suggest the name 'Candidatus Ancillula trichonymphae', represent a novel, deep-branching lineage in the Micrococcineae that consists exclusively of clones from termite guts. They preferentially colonized the anterior part of the flagellate host and were highly abundant in all species of Trichonympha Cluster II except Trichonympha globulosa. Here, they were outnumbered by a Desulfovibrio species associated with the cytoplasmic lamellae at the anterior cell pole. Such symbionts are present in both Trichonympha clusters, but not in all species. Unlike the intracellular location reported for the Desulfovibrio symbionts of Trichonympha agilis (Cluster I), the Desulfovibrio symbionts of T. globulosa (Cluster II) were situated in deep invaginations of the plasma membrane that were clearly connected to the exterior of the host cell.

Pfeifferhorn as seen from the South side of the Lone Peak Ridge above the Dry Creek Trail
|11,326 ft (3,452 m)
|Salt Lake / Utah counties, Utah, U.S.
|Wasatch Range
The Pfeifferhorn is the 11,326 feet (3,452 m) triangularly-shaped peak located in the most isolated part of the Lone Peak Wilderness Area of Utah's Wasatch Mountains. This rugged Utah mountain, commonly referred to as the Little Matterhorn, is the fifth-highest peak in the Wasatch Range. The summit can be reached by hiking, though some scrambling is required. There are several technical rock climbing routes with the north ridge being the most popular. This summit also makes an excellent winter mountaineering adventure.[1]
The easiest and most popular route is the East Ridge via Red Pine Lake trail up Little Cottonwood Canyon. The trail is approximately 3 miles to lower Red Pine lake and roughly 1/2 mile to the upper Red Pine Lake. From here proceed southwest up the steep talus slope to the top of the 'false summit'. A well-defined trail should be visible here in the absence of snow. Continue west along the ridge through a series of large boulders to a second steep slope. You can either wrap around this slope to the south and switch-back up to the summit (easier) or just continue west until you reach the summit (steep).
Another way to climb Pfeifferhorn is to hike in through Maybird Gulch. A small foot bridge breaks off to the right from the Red Pine Lake trail and will take you into Maybird. You will pass three small lakes nestled under the Hogum Divide with the Pfeifferhorn rising straight ahead. Once past the uppermost lake you will find yourself in a large boulder field (granite talus) which is difficult and slow to cross. At the other side, a steep scramble will take you to the summit base. A loop trip can be made starting at Maybird Gulch, climbing to the peak, then down by way of upper/lower Red Pine lakes or vice versa.[2]
