location of milkweed
Hi! I am new to SC and want to find locations for milkweed growing in the wild. I raise Monarch butterflies and can't find your local milkweed anywhere. I know it is in the Charleston area but I can't find any. Can anyone steer me in the right direction? Thanks, Nana butterfly
I don't know if you are referring to asclepias, but the nurseries sell it. I have some seed of a variety that is yellow. I would be willing to send you some. Can you e-mail me?
Have you been to the Butterfly house that is at Cypress Gardens? You will love it. It is out near Moncks Corner and it is my favorite of all of the gardens...
Carolyn the Gardninlady
The only type of milkweed I have found here in the coastal areas is Asclepias tuberosa (butterfly weed). I don't believe any of the other types are happy here. It can be found for sale at local nurseries potted, but it is very difficult to transplant. Best grown from fall sown seed in a hot, dry, sunny location and never disturbed. Very late to show new growth in the spring.
In the meantime, Monarch's are very happy laying eggs on parsley. Every nursery has these plants for sale and should meet your need for this year. I find it grows best in large pots here in the Low Country, planted in the fall in good compost. Over winters well and by this time of year the plants are tall, thick and strong. But, you still have enough time to get some reasonable growth on nursery purchased parsley plants if you plant them right away.
While Asclepias tuberosa is the most common milkweed along the SC coastal plain, we have some others that are not so prevelant. Asclepias lanceolata, Asclepias rubra, Asclepias perennis (aquatic milkweed), Asclepias humistrata (sandhills milkweed), and Asclepias cinerea (Walter's milkweed)are scattered throughout our longleaf pine savannahs/flatwoods, xeric ridges, pocosins, etc.. I recommend picking up Richard Porcher and Douglas Rayner's book "A Guide to the Wildflowers of South Carolina", to learn where to actually find some of these in their native habitats. I've had good luck growing the tuberosa variety from seed. I think the last time I went to Cypress gardens they had some milkweed for sale- might be yet another reason to make the trip. Oh- be advised this milkweed tends to get lots of yellow aphids- though a good blast of water from your garden hose can keep them at bay.
Pete's Herb Farm has asclepias tuberosa. If you can't get out to the farm itself on John's Island (one of my all time favorite places to go) the sell plants at the Farmer's Mkt in Charleston on Sat. am and Mt Pleasant on Tues afternoon. I just had 12 swallowtail caterpillars on my fennel. They are now in chrysalis. It's so exciting.
Asclepias currisavica is the tropical milkweed that we get at nurseries and is easy to grow. It is very attractive to monarchs and they will eat it down flat to the ground. It grows easily from seed, so save it from year to year. It comes in yellow and red or just plain yellow. Tropical milkweed is much easier to grow than A. tuberosa. Here in zone 8b I always get a few volunteers every spring but overwinter a quart pot in the greenhouse just in case.
I am looing for these Milkweeds: Asclepias lanceolata, Asclepias rubra, Asclepias perennis (aquatic milkweed), Asclepias humistrata (sandhills milkweed), and Asclepias cinerea (Walter's milkweed)as well as all the others. I f you have some EVEN JUST LIKE FIVE SEEDS OF ONE SPECIES E-MAIL ME PLEASE! I will be glad to send a SASE or SASBE for some of those seeds that I mentioned above.
Thank-you all so much,

State's Pollution Control Agency sought water quality concerns.
Minnesotans admit they don't know much about pollution in the state's lakes and rivers, but they know what concerns them most: Having fish that are safe to eat.
Asked to name their top three water quality concerns for a survey by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, most respondents said clean water for the consumption of fish mattered most, followed by clean water for drinking and swimming.
The agency developed the survey as part of an effort to discover Minnesotans' priorities and how to discuss water quality issues with the public.
Overall, 98 percent of respondents said lakes and rivers are an important aspect of life in Minnesota. But 42 percent said they were "not at all knowledgeable" about water quality issues.
Trevor Russell, Watershed Program director at Friends of the Mississippi River, said he was not surprised that human health issues, such as fish contamination, mattered most to respondents.
"It makes pollution issues more tangible," Russell said. "It's taking an environmental issue and putting it home on your dining room table."
Russell said he was surprised to learn that the impact of agriculture on water quality placed in the top five concerns in two portions of the survey. Farming is exempt from the main federal statute governing water pollution, the Clean Water Act, a fact that surprises many Minnesotans, Russell said.
"It indicates that Minnesotans are starting to link cause and effect more than before," he said.
The survey suggests that, while people are aware of water quality issues, they don't always understand the underlying causes, according to Rep. Jean Wagenius, chair of the Environment, Natural Resources and Agriculture Finance Committee.
"The missing piece is understanding why this is happening and how you can fix it," Wagenius said.
Large quantities of data
In releasing the survey results, agency officials admitted they don't have a strong system for disseminating water quality information to the general public. The vast majority of survey respondents said they have never received information about the pollution control agency.
Since the agency releases such large quantities of data, often in 300- to 400-page reports, people often find it difficult to find information that interests them, said Cori Rude-Young, who works in the agency's communication and outreach office and served as a leader for the study.
"We've been working pretty hard to take this technical information and boil it down to something people want to read," Rude-Young said.
Some environmental advocates said they hope the survey helps the agency communicate pollution challenges more effectively.
"Quite frankly, I think at times they have been so browbeaten by special interests that they sometimes are reluctant to say what the science is," said Steve Morse, executive director of the Minnesota Environmental Partnership.
The agency plans to use the data to tailor its messages to more specific communities, according to Glenn Skuta, Surface Water Monitoring manager.
For example, the agency found that water cleanliness for fishing mattered most to people in the southwest part of the state, swimming quality ranked highest in the north-central region, and mining was a big concern in the northeast.

He certainly knows how to own a crowd, and last night (December 14) Justin Timberlake was in top form in Brooklyn, New York City.
Thoroughly enjoying her New York City surroundings, Taylor Swift headed over to Cipriani Wall Street earlier today (December 12). Sporting a sleeveless black top and a white skirt with embroidered hemline, the "Style" songstress smiled as she arrived at the 2014 Billboard Women in Music Luncheon.
Swifty is slated to kick off a massive world tour in support of her 1989 album in 2015, but she may have hit a snag with her October 13th gig at the Houston Astros' home Minute Maid Park.
Joining forces for some Yule Tide fun, Taylor Swift and Kendall Jenner helped their gal pal Gigi Hadid decorate her apartment for the holiday season.
She has always played by her own rules and Taylor Swift scored a spot on the coveted 10 Most Fascinating People of 2014 list by Barbara Walters.
She picks and chooses her gal pals carefully, so when Taylor Swift was accused of hooking up with her friend Karlie Kloss, she wasn't about to stay silent.
Given the massive success of her new album 1989 and all of the media fanfare surrounding her, it's no wonder Taylor Swift caught the eye of Time magazine. As the popular publication put together the 2014 Person of the Year shortlist, the "Shake It Off" songstress ended up near the top.
They've been close friends for awhile and Taylor Swift and Karlie Kloss attended The 1975's New York City concert together on Thursday night (December 4).
It's hard to keep up with her relationship status from week to week and now Taylor Swift is said to be getting close with a rock star guy.
On Thursday night (December 4) the "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together" songstress attended a concert for The 1975 in New York City and rumored beau Matt Healy just happens to be in the band.

Zora or Cosima or........
Wow, so far it has been extremely difficult to choose names for our baby due in, oh...two weeks We don't know the gender and initially struggled with a boy name, but are now also second guessing our girl name. We have always liked the name Zora but are hesitant to use it now due to the Spanish meaning of zorra (basically sl*t). We travel frequently and our public schools include a daily Spanish class beginning in kindergarten, so.....it seems like a risky choice, no? So now we are considering Cosima, Saphronia, and Aurelie/Aurelia in addition to Zora. Thoughts? Comments? Preferences?

Unfortunately Zara has been ruined for me because of the clothing store I have waffled between Saphronia and Sophronia. I like Sophronia better but don't want it to be shortened to Sophie (cute but way, way popular in my area and the name of a good friend's daughter). Saphronia we would possibly nn Saffron.

How about Zosime? (Can be legitimately pronounced "ZO-sih-may" or "ZO-zih-mee.") It's ancient Greek, the feminized form of Zosimus, a name borne by several saints and a pope.
I think it's quite graceful, close to Cosima and Zora... Though I like Zora, I agree that it's a bit iffy if you'll be around a lot of Spanish speakers.
Aurelia is beautiful. So smooth and golden.

Talk To Me About Residential Indoor Rubber Flooring
We're in the process of finishing our basement and are trying to decide on flooring. Can anyone share their experience with using rubber for stairs and the floor? I'm interested in possibly pairing it with cork -- the rubber for the stairs (would that have to be treads or can you cut regular rubber flooring and mold it to stairs?) and then for a small landing that will have a few closets and a powder room. From that point there are two very shallow steps that bring you down into the main part of the basement and I was thinking we could do cork there.
I'm having a difficult time finding any information on pairing the two floors as well as reputable dealers of residential rubber floor. Other thoughts: would we need to put some sort of foam underneath or is it cushy enough on its own and could our contractor install this or would we only be able to do it by finding someone who has done it before?
Thanks in advance:)
We're in the middle of the same decision process. I keep hearing that cork isn't good for below grade unless you do the click together kind, which my husband has taken an instant dislike to. But I really like cork so I would love to find a way to do it.
Capri makes a number of rubber + cork products that can go on floors or walls.

Hanrahan learns how to close
Sep 4, 2010, 11:00 AM EDT
Photo by Mark Zuckerman / NATS INSIDER
Joel Hanrahan blew away Ryan Zimmerman to earn his third save for the Pirates.
PITTSBURGH — There was a time when the last thing Joel Hanrahan wanted was to be handed the ball for the ninth inning with his team leading by three or fewer runs. May 2009, for example, comes to mind.
When the Nationals sent Hanrahan to the Pirates as part of the four-player trade that also included Nyjer Morgan, Sean Burnett and Lastings Milledge, there were plenty of people around the Nats organization who figured the big right-hander would never be successful as a big-league closer.
As good as Hanrahan's stuff was, he didn't seem to have the mental capacity to pitch the ninth inning of a tight ballgame. Five blown saves in 10 opportunities and a 7.71 ERA tend to raise some red flags.
In Pittsburgh, though, Hanrahan has rediscovered himself. And in blowing away the Nats during the ninth inning last night to preserve an 8-5 victory, he showed his former team why he's being viewed around these parts as a viable closer once again.Read more »
- Big Cat - Sep 4, 2010 at 11:33 AM
I still don't think he can mentally handle being a big league closer. Time will tell. But I'll tell ya one thing, I sure would like to have that 98mph back in our bullpen. Wonder if the Bucs will swap him back to us for Nyjer. Heck, we could even throw in Maxwell to sweeten the pot
- Doc - Sep 4, 2010 at 12:20 PM
@ Big Cat: We might as well throw in Mock, Bergman, Atilano, and a few more etcs. I knew that being a closer had a certain mentality to it, but I didn't realize it was such a big emotional/mental leap for some pitchers. It also sounds like the mental part is not always the easiest thing for a pitching coach to mentor. With Joe Kerrigan, Hanrahan has one of the best. Randy St. Clair tried his best with Hanrahan too, and he still ranks high in my estimation of quality coaches.Doesn't sound like Hanrahan is quite there yet, and maybe never will be. But the heater is certainly impressive.Us fans like to keep track of the ex-Nats. Nice article Mark.
- JaneB - Sep 4, 2010 at 1:27 PM
Im one of the fans who even ROOTS for certain ex-Nats when I see them play. Jon Rauch being one of them. And I will probably root for Nyjer, whenever he lands somewhere else, as seems inevitable. Interesting that we couldn't help Hanrahan to where he is now, and the Pirates gave up on Capps. Maybe there is something to the idea of clean slate that helps players turn a corner. Thanks for this update!
- Anonymous - Sep 4, 2010 at 2:21 PM
Hanrahan gave one of the great quotes of all time when he said as a Nat "I get good results when I throw strikes". He can be good, at least, if he ever gets control over his 98 mph heat. Of course, there are hundreds of guys through the years that have said that, too.
- BinM - Sep 4, 2010 at 5:33 PM
I'm as happy as any that 'Gas-Can' has found a role with the Pirates, but he is still another $1M arm with a two-bit head, imo. He turns 30 in the off-season, and that 98mph two-seamer is bound to lose some steam at some point in the near future. I'd still take the trade of Milledge-Hanrahan for Morgan-Burnett, & call it a wash at worst. Two 'knuckleheads' off the roster, while getting one 'knucklehead' (Morgan), and a solid LHRP in return. Still a good trade, imo.
- Sec3MySofa - Sep 4, 2010 at 6:11 PM
The Cubs will probably be looking to dump some salary. Maybe the Nats could get Marlon Byrd back? Just a thought. I always liked that guy.I'm assuming "We stand behind Nyjer" means "by dinnertime Oct. 3 he is SO out of here."
- rogieshan - Sep 4, 2010 at 6:33 PM
Doc said: "With [pitching coach] Joe Kerrigan, Hanrahan has one of the best."Kerrigan was fired last month. Ray Searage is the pitching coach now.
- Doc - Sep 4, 2010 at 7:19 PM
@ rogieshan: My bad! But still think that Kerrigan is a good pitching coach. Thanks for keeping me up to date.
- Souldrummer - Sep 4, 2010 at 8:08 PM
To me, Hanrahan is a Bowden casualty. He was a prospect almost as valuable as Storen given his stuff. Last year, we threw him into a closer role and he had less time in big league camp and less innings over the spring since we was on the World Baseball Classic USA roster. I tend to think Rizzo, who likes to protect his prospects a bit more, would have found a better stopgap closer like he did with Matt Capps this year to help protect Hanrahan and that may have helped him ease into a closer role.In the long run, I think Hanrahan is going to be better than Burnett. Morgan for Milledge is starting to look like a wash. Not a bad deal given where we were and our need to clean house after Bowden, but we shouldn't be married to Morgan either and we should still root for Hanrahan as he thrives in greener Bowden-less pastures.

La Petite Maison, restaurant review: A treasure trove of gastronomic ideas in Devon

Sunday 27 April 2014
Continuing our occasional series about places outside London that my generation, horrified by scandalous house prices in the capital, are likely to move to, today we are in the patch of Devon called Topsham. Full disclosure: this glorious town on the banks of the River Exe is a mile from Ebford, the village where my wife Charlie grew up. But given that we have no intention of moving back there (unless she has plans to which I am not privy), and given that I don't know the owners of the restaurant we are in, I feel no qualms whatsoever about telling you that this place is utterly delightful, and then some.
Alumni and students of Exeter University know this suburb as the home of the Topsham Ten, one of the more notorious pub crawls in the south-west; but that is actually rather out of kilter with a quaint and quiet little place, about 10 minutes' drive from Exeter, and just up the road from the huge, and hugely successful, Darts Farm shopping complex. One other big thing going for it is La Petite Maison.
This is a family-run restaurant in the best sense: Douglas and Elizabeth Pestell took over in 2000; he runs the kitchen, she runs things up front. Their purchase fulfilled a decades-old dream, particularly for Douglas, whose training included a formative spell with Michelin superhero and three-star holder Michel Guérard. Their ground-floor rooms are split in two, and fit around 30 covers between them without being cramped. The menu is short, technically superb – and expensive.
By expensive, I mean £32.95 for two courses, £38.95 for three, with home-made bread, coffee or tea, and truffles thrown in. Once you include service, that's more than £40 for three courses, which would be pretty pricy even for London; but then the south-west is not the cheapest place to live – and Topsham is one of the more affluent bits. So much for my generation moving here…
But if the prices aren't easy to swallow, the food certainly is. There is never a dull moment on this menu. Starters include excellent and firm scallops with black pudding, bacon, and a light lemon dressing that cuts through the salty offal exquisitely; a vast, overflowing goat's cheese soufflé with roasted tomato and strong pesto dressing; curried parsnip, which is a genuine revelation due to the addition of coconut to the warm soup; and a terrine made of confit of duck leg and breast with foie gras and a plum chutney, which is worth the train fare from London alone.
The main, traditional courses, are intelligently balanced plates prepared with great skill, and no skimping on the extras. For instance, the fillet steak – beautiful rather than blue when ordered medium-rare – comes with a thyme-potato croquet, Savoy cabbage, bacon, mushroom, cream and sherry sauce. I don't know what sherry they use, but it has a nutty warmth that binds the dish; and the little mushrooms retain their firmness despite being coated in sauce. My tastebuds get lost between the overwhelmed thyme and the crunchy cabbage, but that's what you get from a plate with so many parts.
The best among the mains has even more: escalope of venison with accompanying mini-burger, pear poached in red wine, red cabbage, boulangère potato – a marginally healthier version of dauphinoise – port, redcurrant jelly and game jus. This is like one of those Christmas meals with all the trimmings, except it's all your Christmases at once. It is almost too much, but within the mix is pure magic: the pear is both hard and soft at the same time, and the burger is full of meaty juices that spill everywhere.
There are also good bass and pork dishes, but some of these plates are so big you could share them (which could be a good way of cutting the bill) – and you really should leave room for dessert, not least the best sticky-toffee pudding I have ever had. There is also an excellent chocolate mousse cake with caramelised pecan and roasted pecan-nut ice-cream.
Those, like the rest of the menu, are generous and memorable – and in that, a distillation of the spirit of Topsham. If this journalism lark goes tits-up, perhaps my wife and I will think again about moving here; in fact, we'll probably save up, try to buy this restaurant, and change very little about it.

Four more things I've been eating this week
Almond biscuits
Biscuit of the week is this nutty number from M&S, though one little complaint: too soggy too quickly when dunked in tea.
Fat-burner smoothie
I'm probably Crush's most loyal customer. This "super smoothie" has berries, yoghurt and wheatgerm.
Torta de Trujillo
At Iberica in London, a hang-out for BBC types, this creamy, organic sheep's milk cheese is magnificent.
Chocolate frosted flakes
Charlie, my wife, made some of these with dark chocolate, golden syrup, and a mini egg on top. Scrumptious.

'Restoring Honor' at the Lincoln Memorial; Update: Live Stream Included
**Written by Doug Powers
Today is Glenn Beck's "Restoring Honor" gathering at the Lincoln Memorial (this is also the 47th anniversary of Martin Luther King Jr's "I have a dream" speech, which you can watch here). Beck partnered with the Special Operations Warrior Foundation to sponsor the event, which starts at 10 a.m. eastern, and you can watch it live on C-Span. You can watch live via Facebook here. MLK's niece Alveda King will be there, as will Sarah Palin and many current and former members of the US military.
We're hearing a lot about people criticizing the timing of the event, calling it insensitive for having the rally on the anniversary of Dr. King's speech — but since most of this criticism is coming from people who are calling critics of the ground zero area mosque over-sensitive, let's move on.
I couldn't make it to DC today, but there are a few people attending who are sending photos my way, so I'll use this space today to pass along any pictures or stories that may be of interest.
Not to be outdone, of course, Al Sharpton has a counter-rally scheduled after Beck's event around a reflecting puddle on Constitution Ave NW, and C-Span will carry that at noon. One person who Sharpton stood up for and defended not long ago will not be able to attend.
There are long lines (one example) at DC area Metro stations.
A while back, Bill O'Reilly reportedly told Glenn Beck that if he got over 100,000 people at today's event, Beck needs to anchor his 8 p.m. time slot. Judging from this picture taken at 7:30 this morning I'd say Bill can go ahead and start sliding out of the way.
A friend just emailed to say there are probably a couple hundred thousand people there already — which, after we run it through the MSM Tea Party Crowd Size Re-Estimator, comes to about 12,000.
Here's another picture from somebody there.
The live stream is up now:
Update II: Uh-oh, in spite of hundreds of thousands of peaceful patriots converging on Washington who will probably leave the place as clean or cleaner than they found it, the MSM already has their lead story for tonight: Tea Party vandals invade nation's capital
Update III: Equal time — CNN's live coverage of Al Sharpton's rally. It's a more intimate setting.
Update IV: Via Sister Toldjah, the New York Times is already spinning this as the Tea Party "claiming MLK's mantle." They're hardly "claiming" Dr. King's mantle — but maybe sharing it. And isn't that what King's message was all about?
Update V: Albert Pujols and Tony La Russa are there, but it was Palin who just hit it out of the park.
Update VI: Crowd estimates. It'll probably end up being higher than those numbers.
Update whatever-the-next-Roman-numeral-is: Here's a great aerial shot of the crowd.
Update IXEIDXXVI: If anybody is looking for people who are "dishonoring" Dr. King's memory today, unfortunately they'll need look no further than the memorial to Dr. King, because the Code Pink harpies will be there:
Also, 2,000-3,000 showed up for Sharpton's rally. Wow, that means that only 1/2 of 1 percent of all the people at the two rallies weren't racists.
Update ∞: Should we hold our breath waiting for the MSM to point out the apparent lack of diversity at Sharpton's rally? Didn't think so.

I really love these programs. They are beautiful, and I was able to customize them to meet the color scheme of my wedding. My only complaint is that the font on the inside of the program is small. However, overall, I am very happy with the product!

Prisons Create a Criminal Personality
This article will tell you why criminals become worse at prison.
It is common knowledge that one had apple spoils the whole bunch;the same is true of prisoners penned up together in a prison.Ask any parent to describe how one "bad seed"in a group of children can make the other children act.It is well known that this is evil child can lead all the others into evil.This is also true in prisons.In prison,we house a few truly terrible criminals with the many others that have committed harmless crimes.These harmless criminals learn even worse behaviour from the terrible ones.
Prison conditions help this process.Prisons are boring.They are abusive and full of injustice.Violent gangs wrest control from guards and officials and rule prisons with tyranny.These conditions turn minor offenders into violent maniacs.
Few prison inmates perform useful work.The system promotes idleness.While prisoners stand around inthe recreation yard,the seasoned prisoners teach the younger ones.They teach them the ins and outs of becoming successful criminals,just as professors instruct their pupils.The veterans tell them type of stores to rod,what kind of guns to use,and how to disguise themselves.One former inmate calls prisons "graduate schools for crime."
Anger plays another important role in creating more criminal behavior.Inmates feel mistreated,and their anger builds up. Once a criminal is back to society,that anger breaks loose,resulting in more crime.According to Philip Zimbardo,a professor at Stanford University,70 percent of all released prisoners return to prison for committing further crimes.The main reason,Zimbardo believes,is that prisons "are breeding grounds of hatred… a hatred that makes every citizen a target of violent assault."
Zimbardo has done research on the prison environment.Using a group of twenty-four college students,he had half act as guards and half act as prisoners.These were normal,happy,intelligent college kids.He had to end the study after just six days because the "guards" began to treat the "prisoners" too cruelly.The prisoners felt so awful that they were filled with hatred for the guards.And these kids knew it was an experiment and that they could stop at any time.How much worse must it be in a real prison?This study proves that prisons bred more crime and hatred.
But we do not need any studies to tell us prisons breed more criminals.Just look at the dangerous youth gangs like the Bloods and the Crips.These groups got their start in prisons.Now they carry their violence through the streets outside prison,murdering and dealing drugs.As Jack Henry Abbott,a convicted murderer,writes,"No one has ever come out of prison a better man.

Harry Styles Shows Off His Naked Butt in Leaked Photo
A photo that's allegedly of One Direction cutie Harry Styles' bare butt has surface online, featuring the singer without pants and peeing into some bushes.
A photo that's allegedly of One Direction cutie Harry Styles' bare butt has surface online, featuring the singer without pants and peeing into some bushes.
If One Direction had you swooning with their hit 'What Makes You Beautiful,' you need to check out the teaser for their upcoming 'Sesame Street' parody, 'What Makes U Useful.'
Even though One Direction are still in a very young phase of their billion dollar career, the boys are readying an autobiography. They've accomplished a lot in the past few years and they have a story to share with dedicated Directioners.
Kendall Jenner and Harry Styles are heating up! The 'Keeping Up With the Kardashians' starlet and the One Direction heartthrob have been rumored to be hooking up and hanging out for a while, and they've been spotted together yet again.
Lots of happenings in One Direction's world right now.
Congrats to Taylor Swift! The 'Sweeter Than Fiction' singer took home the most cash out of any tour in 2013 -- and she was in great company, too.
As if One Direction could get any cuter, Louis Tomlinson recently revealed that he and the guys (Harry Styles, Zayn Malik, Niall Horan, and Liam Payne) just can't stay mad at each other. Aw!
This scenario will look insanely familiar to Harry Styles fans. The One Direction singer was snapped at a snowboard shop in Mammoth Lakes, Calif. on Jan. 2, accompanied by Kendall Jenner.
Are One Direction feuding about their musical direction?
One Direction's brand is marketed in all sorts of ways. From fragrances to clothes to bedsheets, 1D and their faces are everywhere. The boys and their marketing team have found a utilitarian way to promote the brand, as well. They've teamed with British eyewear company Vision Express for 1D-branded reading glasses expressly for females.
Does Leonardo DiCaprio have something to worry about? Is he about to be supplanted by One Direction's Niall Horan as legendary director Martin Scorsese's favorite blond heartthrob with whom to work? Word is that Marty is considering directing a 1D film.
It appears that Harry Styles prefers an English rose to a Yankee rose! The One Direction heartthrob, who was reportedly casually seeing Kendall Jenner, is said to have ditched the American reality TV star because her personality didn't match or mesh with his, which is decidedly British.

Patience indeed. The fruit doesn't need direct sunlight to ripen either, rm. Temperature is the key. Optimum is low-20sC and above. The lower the regular temps below that, the longer they will take.
rm, are they in pots or in the ground? Either way, it's highly unlikely the leaves have turned yellow because they haven't been fed for a couple of weeks. You always get yellowing leaves as they season goes on, particularly lower leaves. They're the oldest, they get tired, they can pick up disease.
The fruit will ripen if you get sufficiently warm temps.
In addition, you need to be careful using garden soil - even with rotted manure - in containers. It can compact over time with watering.
Do you want to keep them a manageable height under the lights? The problem with restricting non-bush variety plants is that you also restrict your potential crop.
It looks like a fungal problem. How do the leaves look?
pete, if you can't upload a photo you'll have to be a bit more specific. The leaves wither and die? How many? Right across the plant or mainly lower leaves? Are there are any other leaf symptoms before they wither and die?
Keep up the good work, Verdun.
She could try. Chillies are like toms, technically perennials but grown as annuals. Overwintered with a lot of warmth and light they would produce next season but it's hardly worth the cost or trouble. Cheaper and easier to start again next season.
Good idea. If you grow from seed, start early because chillies take longer to germinate than tomatoes and longer to develop to planting out stage. Otherwise, if you start with seedlings, they need as much light and warmth as possible and don't overfeed or overwater.
They're past seedling stage but only just. First one looks desperately in need of sunlight. Second one looks healthy.
Give them as much sunlight and warmth as you can. Pot them up into something with a bit more room if they develop. Whether you'll get fruit between now and the end of the season is problematic.
Stay away from the plum varieties - Roma, San Marzano, etc - to avoid thick skins. Unless you're intending to make sauce, in which case the thicker skins are an advantage.
Sounds from Buddyboy's experience that it's not variety-related. Never grown those varieties so I wouldn't know. In addition to his suggestions, overfertilising can also cause thicker skins.

All of us at SSMD are excited about our
Annual Winter Campaign
!!! You've probably seen some of the success stories we've posted before. This winter, we're sharing Alex's story. When he and I spoke a couple weeks ago, Alex was excited to hear that a Facebook friend like you might make a gift -- of $500, $250, $100 or another amount you select – if you learned more about how SSMD -- "and Alex," as he says -- have worked together to change his life.
Only about 75 nonprofits around the country – only SSMD in Maryland – use the self-directed, individualized services approach we've described here exclusively. This is what has worked so well for Alex and the more than 50 other people with disabilities whom SSMD supports each year. The interaction of choice, control and support that helps Alex thrive can benefit so many others who deserve the same opportunities to be in charge of their own lives. With your gift to Shared Support Maryland now, you will have the satisfaction of knowing that you are making change happen. It's easy to make a gift to Shared Support Maryland through our website. Just go to www.sharedsupportmd.org and click on the DONATE button.
Here's our latest the Story:
The importance of having a job is where Alex started our chat. Did you know that the unemployment rate for people with disabilities is more than double the national rate for Americans without disabilities? For too many people with disabilities, real work for real pay is only a dream. Alex was one of those people. He talked about the time he spent in a "day program," because someone working in traditional disability services had evaluated him and found him "too disabled" to work. He talked about the monotony of playing board games and learning relaxation exercises day after day and only occasionally going out, but with the entire group from the center, for activities like bowling. He was so bored that he often just fell asleep. And, it seemed to him that nobody cared.
Alex added that nothing else in his life was any better back then either. He wasn't allowed to make choices about his life, he wasn't allowed to date, and he didn't have any real friends. He was incredibly lonely. It seemed to him that nobody cared.
The first time Alex met with SSMD staff, "everything changed," he says, because we listened. We heard what Alex didn't like about his life and encouraged him to think about and tell us what he might like to do or want to try instead. The short of it is that SSMD staff demonstrated from Day One that we were there to work for Alex, rather than to tell him what he could or couldn't do.
Alex's first priority? Real work for real pay. The job coach he hired with SSMD's support encouraged him through his job search, being hired and training at Panera Bread, and he has been working there successfully for more than two years now. Alex earns a competitive wage, feels appreciated and notes that he has built real friendships with co-workers.
SSMD didn't stop there. We helped Alex explore other interests that might become hobbies, ways to meet new people or lead to other sorts of employment. Before long, Alex was as surprised as anyone to learn that he had a real passion – and talent! – for making ceramic beads and jewelry. His SSMD Support Broker took the next logical step to find a teacher of jewelry-making. And, the rest is history. Alex now makes his own jewelry. He also spends many weekends going to jewelry and craft shows, where he enjoys meeting and gaining inspiration from other craftspeople. His teacher thinks his jewelry is so good that she has offered to sell some of it at the store where she works, and SSMD has helped him start an online store on Etsy! He is so proud to have sold a number of pieces. Alex is well on his way to becoming an entrepreneur!
Alex's life has changed in other ways, too, thanks to SSMD's encouragement and the effort Alex put into his own life. Being motivated by success rather than being bored yields results. Alex lives in an apartment with a roommate he chose. They get along well. He's dating, too, and hopes to find that special person with whom he can share his life. As he says, "I never felt like I belonged before. Now I have two jobs, an apartment, friends and a Facebook page!" All because of SSMD – "and Alex".

Anne Hathaway arrives on the red carpet for the World Premiere of 'Les Miserables' at a central London cinema in Leicester Square, Wednesday, Dec. 5, 2012. (Photo by Joel Ryan/Invision/AP)
LONDON (AP) — Hollywood stars Anne Hathaway and Hugh Jackman have braved the London cold to walk the red carpet for the world premiere of "Les Miserables."
Hathaway said at the premiere Wednesday that playing the role of Fantine in the film adaptation of "Les Mis" was a dream job she would have done anything to land, describing the gig as "the sort of job you should give your paycheck back" for.
The 30-year-old actress lost 25 pounds (11.3 kilograms) and cut her hair to play the role of a struggling, sickly mother forced into prostitution in 1800s Paris in the screen adaptation of Victor Hugo's classic.
Joined by Jackman and other costars Russell Crowe and Amanda Seyfried, Hathaway signed autographs and met fans in central London at the event.

Some good tips on these replies. I guess I would double upon on saying you would be very safe if the place met all of these criterias:
-Has a gluten free menu (shows they want our business, some places don't want to be bothered with it)
-Serves mostly homemade or unprocessed foods (steak houses are great, fast food is not a good idea)
-Has been recommended on this site by other users.
-Order safe options like baked potato over french fries.
-Test your waiter/waitresses knowledge. I always start the ordering process by telling them I am gluten free and asking them menu questions. Do your cooks change gloves, do you use separate fries, does this contain gluten, etc. If they don't appear knowledgeable, just tell them you have a severe food allergy and would feel better speaking with the manager to make sure everything will be ok. I try to be apologetic about it and have never had anyone be un-receptive.
I can't imagine not eating out! This is hard enough, so I hope this will help you.

The price and the breakfast.
We stayed 4 nights. When we came back to the hotel that second evening the room had not been cleaned. We called the front desk and they quickly brought fresh towels. After that they cleaned every day.
For the price it was good. It could have been cleaner, but I never saw any bugs or anything. We were working everyday and just needed some place decedent to stay. I've stayed in better. I've stayed in worst.

|Franken in particular decried the way conservative legal scholars have changed the popular perception of what Supreme Court justices do -- and what justice is. So unless you want to get a late-term abortion, burn a flag in the town square, or get federal funding for your pornographic artwork, you really don't need to worry about what the Supreme Court is up to.

An email just came across our HLVan list for homelearners...so I'm forwarding it here. It's regarding the (possible) loss of the UBC farm! Hope others are moved to sign the petition as I was...
They are aiming for 3000 signatures, so far they've got close to 2000! :
I told her she could go with someone else and I'd go to the pumpkin patch, but she informed me that she needed my nummies to be there, too.
I'm now convinced that social anxiety and shyness is at least partly genetic. I wonder if she'll have my lifelong fear of walking through a closed door...
the feeling that the anniversary of Aaron's death is creeping up on me (think that's partly because I was labouring on Halloween, and the kids are talking about Halloween a lot), and the fact that we're on our third cycle of unsuccessfully ttc.

New Release: Pillars of Eternity, a new RPG perfect for fans of Baldur's Gate and Icewind Dale!
In a dwarven mine, you encounter some horrors. Notice the excellent light/shadow engine.
"The moon shall be tainted with blood..."
The Sword of Light is corrupted and becomes the Blade of Darkness
Character selection - the Amazon
Character selection - the Knight
Load Screen always shows the barbarian
Sargon, the knight, begins the adventure in prison, betrayed
Zoe, the amazon, begins raiding an ancient temple
Tukaram, the barbarian, travels to Kashgar, land of ancestors, to find it cursed
Naglfar, the dwarf, visits the library of Khazel Zalam to seek wisdom, but the city has already fallen
This game is specially well known for its gore
You can paint the scenarios in red
You can hit your enemies with their limbs
And there is always time to enjoy a bloodbath
Blade was also well known for its wonderful (and resource consuming) shadows
And for the water effects as well
Torches can be used to put crates on fire
Keys are mandatory to advance in any level (specially if between golems)
Traps are one of the hardest and most frustrating parts of Blade
Each character has his/her own special combat moves
And each weapon has its own power move
Fighting back with a bow
Shields protect against weapons and arrows
A fire golem holding one of the four keys that open Ianna's temple
One of the six hidden runes needed to unleash Ianna's sword's real power (and to open the real ending)
An angry orc general
A dark knight with his minotaur pet
Ogres are fast and strong, but get exposed after attacks
The vampire is a tricky enemy
Fire demons are weaker than they look like
Chaos knights are slow, but have devastating attacks
Frair the dwarf was the first hero of Ianna, he hid the runes
The dwarf mines of Kelbegen
The Duke's castle in the fortress of Tell Halaf
The island of Karum is guarded by a dragon
The fortress in the oasis of Nejeb, of Arabic inspiration
Tortured prisoners in the forge of Xshathra
