This application is a divisional of application Ser. No. 09/326,258, filed Jun. 4, 1999, now issued Jul. 5, 2005 as U.S. Pat. No. 6,915,336 which claims benefit of U.S. provisional application Ser. No. 60/088,140, filed Jun. 5, 1998.
The invention relates to global network communications systems; more particularly, it relates to system and processes for a real time internet communications system.
New Internet communication functions have been developed in the last few years. Net users (that is, persons browsing or surfing on the Net) can enter virtual �rooms� and �chat� with each other. In another recently known function, two users can each run a program that works in conjunction with their browsers that allows one (the �leader�) to control the other user's browser, at least to the extent of pointing that browser to a location on the Net chosen by the leader. More recently appearing are various collaboration programs that, when all collaborators are running the program and are all logged onto the Internet, allow a preselected group of users to collaborate.
What is needed is a way for users to collaborate on the fly, and without having to own or download any programs that then stay resident on the user's computer.
Conventionally, there are only variations on shrink wrap and click wrap sales of software as product, with conventional business models for this kind of commerce. But software sales in these models all to some extent create a need for updates and distributions and rollouts that are expensive and time consuming.
What is needed is a business system that makes highly productive software available to businesses and end users, but which is not purchased by customers or end users, has no conventional distribution system, and never requires update, installation or rollout by the customer or end user.
Some of these concerns have been addressed by a variety of companies with differing levels of technology. They range from the �poorly financed and positioned� to the �very well funded with strong niche markets�. At this time, however, it is believed there are no comparable available technologies. There are also no known comparable business systems.
A novel real time internet communication system is disclosed. It is a novel way for users to collaborate on the fly, and without having to own or download any programs that then stay resident on the user's computer. It is marketed under a novel business system that makes highly productive software available to businesses and end users, but which is not purchased by customers or end users, has no conventional distribution system, and never requires update, installation or rollout by the customer or end user. In a preferred embodiment, this system is referred to herein as the iSession system or just iSession.
In the iSession system, customers of the system are referred to herein as Clients, while end users are referred to as Users if they are customers, employees, researchers or educators and students of a Client, or as Agents if they are particular customer service or sales agents or employees of a Client. The prototypical company owner of the system is Sessio, Inc., doing business as sessio.com. The system is a client/server type system, and the server or any part of it is generally referred to as the iSession server or iServer, while the client portion of the system is referred to as an iSession client or iClient.
A novel business system is also disclosed. A company (Sessio) owns a client/server based information management system, for example a real time internet communications system. No part of the system is for sale, no software or hardware is sold, or conventionally distributed, to Client or User. Instead, and in basic terms only, a business desiring to make the system available to its end users becomes a customer subscriber (Client) to the company (Sessio), and provides approved hyperlinks on its web site pages to the iServer after a sign up process that sets up the Client's preferences for its own use and default preferences for its end users' uses. The Client pays a subscription rate to the company based only on end user usage, measured for example either in minutes of use, or instances (hits) of use. Agents and Users then make use of the system as described herein. This usage is noted and recorded by the iServer and the Client receives invoices or statements from the company based on the usage information stored in the iServer and the agreed subscription rate. Optionally a VAR or other reseller of the iSession service enters into a sales relationship with the company to sign up other businesses. In other respects however, the usage information and invoicing from the company remains substantially the same; the VAR then internally receives its agreed share of usage revenue from the company.
iSession dramatically improves the effectiveness of communication across the Internet. iSession is the first technological solution to effectively provide integration of live multi-user dialogue and operator driven browsing capabilities in one window (or �session�), wherever User or Client so desire (optional related but floating viewer and chat control portions of the system are also available). This technology significantly impacts the web in four primary environments; they include sales, collaboration, training, and support, in such industries as electronic commerce, all areas of the medical field, brokerage services, travel services, technical support, and automotive enterprises.
Users can click on an iSession button, located on their favorite website, and immediately begin a real-time dialogue with live sales or service personnel who can directly answer questions, make sales and lead users to any desired location on the web.
iSession offers real-time, text based, dialogue between �corporate� operators and �consumer� end user browsers, or between any number of users themselves, while giving the User-leader complete ability to drive one or more client browsers to desired locations on the web. In addition, for collaborative usage the drivers seat (or baton) can be passed from user to user enabling any participant to lead the others to any destination on the web. Private �sidebar� discussion features are an optional means to enhance operator presentations or multi-user collaborations.
With the new technology disclosed herein, there is no need for a User or Client installation of a resident program; the only installation is on the fly and directed transparently by the iSession server, at the Request, of course, of the user. What is downloaded is an ETC or Extremely Thin Client applet of Java based code. No selection in advance or purchase or setup by the user is ever required, and there is no user maintenance whatever; in fact, upgrades all happen on the server and every user download of the ETC is always fresh and fully up-to-date.
When the user hits an iSession link on a web page, a request to the iSession server is generated to build on the fly a particularized instance of a user iClient applet. A cookie is left as a former iSession user is checked for; if no cookie is found, then a request for ID is sent to the user; if a cookie is found, there is a verification of cookie ID. Optionally, during this initial checking process, the page from which the user clicked the hyperlink is also checked for and passed along to the iServer. There is also an optional chance at about this point in the process for the user to enter his �question� for the agent. This iClient is first generated as a DHTML applet tag from iSession database information, if available for the user, and if no �user� entry is found in the database, then a default iClient (preferably configurable for each Client) is served to the user, in either case via standard Apache webserver http stream. In one embodiment, the first thing that is shipped or served is about a 7K �webload� java applet that mediates and controls the rest of the iClient download, along with a cookie if one is not already in place on the user machine. All of this is invisible to the user, running as it does in the background, and can be concurrent with other computer and/or Internet processes by loading into an invisible frame. An optional concurrent message (the only thing visible to the user at this time) is displayed in the user's browser to the effect of �we're connecting you to ______�, or the like.
The above referred to DHTML applet tag has parameters that the user browser uses (by means of a standard process with which the skilled artisan will be familiar) to do the actual request for the configured Java applet that will then provide the connection with the iSession switching cloud and other process disclosed herein. The iClient Java applet is also, when received, cached on the user machine in a standard way. The download of the rest of the iClient desirably takes advantage of the well known �burst phenomenon� and Burst Advantage Architecture (BAA). Because of Internet phenomena and page variables like line speed, TCP/IP protocols, browser loading characteristics, and number of available concurrent sockets, the balance of the iClient download to the user is broken into 12-24 pieces or blocks and sent piecemeal to the user (break and send). In a preferred embodiment, there is no initial �webload� applet; instead the entire iClient is broken down into about 20-30 modules or applets, all of which are downloaded as described herein. Then when all of the iClient is downloaded and assembled, the whole applet is run, and the Viewer appears on the user screen for the first time in the session, or preferably one small applet is run which then calls and controls all the other applets that make up the iClient.
The Viewer screen is divided into four primary areas, running preferably rectilinearly from top to bottom of the screen: a largest area for viewers, a strip for various avatars, a strip for chat text, and a strip for a chat input line.
When user(s) and agent are joined in a channel, they are communicating through the iServer acting as a proxy in a well known manner. But all Net content comes directly from the Net to both user and agent. On the other hand, chat lines (text for now), which do first go to the iServer, are then sent from the iServer to the agent and all other room occupants (users). That way, the chat entrant knows that when she sees the line in the chat room window, everyone can see it.
This innovative system significantly improves the effectiveness, value, and overall return on most Internet, Intranet, and Extranet sites. Businesses will be able to immediately �answer� the questions of those who are browsing their site without the assistance of a plug-in, 1-800 service, an additional application, added hardware, or a high-speed connection. Clients of iSession access the system by attaching a link from their website to a pre-authorized proprietary (Sessio) address. There is no installation required on the host server and nothing to download to the Client. Thus, it enables quick customer sign up, without MIS assistance, and immediate scaling capabilities. Upgrades to iSession are made instantly. There is no slow and costly upgrade distribution system. Upgrades are made (quite literally) overnight on the Internet. Preferably, every new release of iServer/iClient software is backward compatible with the last release of iClient to prevent channel loss at system upgrade switchover.
iSession is designed to compensate for existing low bandwidth, low memory, hardware and software environments as well as future high-bandwidth platforms. iSession easily integrates the usage of voice and video where bandwidth constraints are not an issue. An iSession communications system offers the unique ability to send reliable bi-directional packet streams over HTTP as well as over TCP and UDP. The unique design of the communication system enables 1 to 1, or 1 to many, communication on unlimited scale. The leader can quickly drive every participant's browser to any location on the web. This makes an iSession system ideal for use with live Internet sales, customer service and unprecedented collaboration in both range and scale.
iSession reporting systems for call center management include the following: (1) Full Archiving of each session�This helps to improve employee performance with direct feedback on technique and strategy. Every event in a session is stored as a date/time stamped transaction, creating a comprehensive pool of data for analysis. (2) Usage reports�Managers are able to quickly evaluate staff performance, training & marketing effectiveness, product interest, subject interest, and the like. (3) Customer �In queue� reporting�Managers and support staff can identify iSession demand, staffing needs and marketing campaign performance. In addition, iSession's network will make suggestions (via secure e-mail) when the analysis shows where iSession-based performance can improve through resource management. iSession also creates a market trends report, helping Clients to identify market shifts on a real-time basis. (4) Collaborative Reporting�Leaders can identify meeting attendance for certification purposes and identify subject interest and understanding based on session attendance and interaction.
In the iSession system, zero downtime and a fault-tolerant environment are assigned the highest priority; thus iSession servers are not randomly collocated with ISP's across the Internet. Rather, complete product supervision is undertaken in a proprietary (Sessio's) controlled server bank, where specially trained technicians monitor the iSession servers 24�7 with high-level redundancy to ensure 100% product reliability. This differentiating factor prevents any delay in the communication between two iSession users. To these ends the Sun platform is preferably employed.
The iSession system is a new Internet communication category. Now, through the simple click of a button, users can enjoy real-time one-to-one or one-to-many dialogue, all while concurrently browsing the Internet. Applications for iSession include customer service, live sales assistance, collaborative research and online interactive training. Each user connection is commonly referred to as a �seat�, and iSession can support around 20,000 seats in a single session. Each Client determines the maximum number of seats in an iSession (that is, the number of one-to-one sessions the Client wishes to support). And to add to its appeal, iSession technology is seamless to the users, requiring no troublesome software to download as well as no server maintenance on a Client's side.
The simple interface and intuitive operation of the iSession system from the users' point of view allows it to be used by novice and professionals alike. One underlying objective is to serve as a universal dialogue interface between WEB hosts (Clients) and their visitors (Users), regardless of language, technical skills or computer hardware, although certain minimum standards are of course required to access the WEB. Companies, organizations and groups can use iSession technology to increase the overall responsiveness towards the needs of their patrons.
Companies that provide training services and courseware can now use iSession as a supplemental tool. Sales organizations can use iSession to increase efficiency, sales and profits. Through iSession, groups will be able to conduct online presentations regardless of their location (provided they have a computer and an Internet connection). Research organizations can use iSession to exchange real-time information and findings online. Educational organizations can use iSession to teach classes, grade tests and interact with students. And finally, customer service organizations can provide real-time support on the Internet through iSession technology.
Preferred features and their respective implementations are summarized in the table below.
Turning now to the drawings, the invention will be described in a preferred embodiment by reference to the numerals of the drawing figures wherein like numbers indicate like parts.
iSession Process Overview
Process Detail
iSession Agent Login
An Agent visits an iSession server login process using a Java compliant browser, such as IE 4+ or Netscape 3+, over a secure connection such as SSL. Login requests from the Agent a user ID and password for authentication.
Upon submission of a user ID and password, iSession authenticates Agent against a Client's records for its Agents in the iSession database. iServer inquires of agent's state (i.e. available, on break, away from desk�these state options are desirably determined by the Agent's Client feature configuration), and annotates that state for Agent in the iSession/DB and places Agent into queue for receiving �calls�. Agent is responsible for correct status notification after this.
Upon authentication, agent's IP address and a time/date stamp is annotated in the iSession/DB for the agent logging in. Particularized Client Agent feature configuration is extracted from the iSession/DB and a Java applet request embedded in an HTML document is built.
The Client Java applet HTML document is then web served to the Agent.
iSession User Request
Within a Java-compliant browser, User clicks on an iSession hyperlink to request access to a live one-on-one or one-to-many session. If User has previously interacted with iSession (via the current Client or any other iSession Client), iServer checks for cookies on the User's machine containing iSession login data.
IServer queries iSession/DB to authenticate requesting domain as an iSession Client. If requesting domain is not authenticated, it notifies iSession network engineers, e-mails domain administrator and informs User that this Web site, while it has a hyperlink to iSession, does not authenticate as an iSession Client, and the process ends.
Upon authentication, User's IP address and a time/date stamp is annotated in iSession/DB for the User logging in. iServer extracts Client feature configuration from iSession/DB and builds a Java applet request embedded in an HTML document. If available, it places a cookie login data into secure (SSL) iSession/User login Web page. If no cookie is available, and if User is a customer service type customer or the like, then iServer assigns a random generated user ID for User for server purposes; if User is a collaborative type user, an ID and password are requested. IServer begins caching iSession/iClient components (such as interface imagery) on the User machine in an invisible frame. In the same HTML document, the User's question to be passed to an Agent is asked for. IServer Web serves the login page to User.
User is placed in iSession queue for next available Agent or User is introduced into an existing 1-to-many collaboration channel.
IServer Web serves the client Java applet HTML document to the User.
iSession Virtual Channel Established
A virtual channel name is generated, composed of the associated iSession Client name and a time/date stamp. While the iSession Client can specify an upper cap on the number of participants allowed in a single channel, iSession does not otherwise limit channel population.
When Agent is available, iServer queries iSession/DB to ensure iSession Client seats are available for the addition of another participant. If the maximum number of iSession Client seats are in use, iServer jumps to Process: Overflow Queue.
Overflow Queue
iServer is notified by database that all Agents are busy, or that all seats are occupied. iSession serves a notice page to User informing her that she has three options: 1) wait for the next available agent or seat and continue browsing the Web, 2) schedule an iSession for a later day or time, or 3) try again later (thus rescinding the iSession request).
Wait for Agent/Seat
iSession server is continuously polled every five seconds by the iSession notice window via a meta refresh tag to check for an available seat or Agent. If poll fails, the notice window remains unchanged and continues polling.
The iSession system preferably resides on a proprietary bank of controlled servers. Traffic is handed off from Client websites to the Sessio network in order for Sessio Clients to interact with their website visitors. Because of the complexity of the system infrastructure it is desirable that the network not fail at any given point, andn that it preferably run with 100% uptime reliability. A Unix platform, widely accepted as the most reliable server environment for the web, is chosen for reliability. In tests to date, the iSession system has achieved complete reliability.
Some benefits of using the iSession system include improved customer service leading to more deal closures, real-time collaborative research facilitating more timely solutions, and finally, the added flexibility to train individuals in the field with a more cost-effective distribution of knowledge and education.
In compliance with the statute, the invention has been described in language more or less specific as to structural features. It is to be understood, however, that the invention is not limited to the specific features shown, since the means and construction shown comprise preferred forms of putting the invention into effect. The invention is, therefore, claimed in any of its forms or modifications within the legitimate and valid scope of the appended claims, appropriately interpreted in accordance with the doctrine of equivalents.

Tulip bulbs froze in bag, now sprouting! Help!
buggusMarch 5, 2009
I had a bag of tulip bulbs that I wasn't able to plant in time in the fall, and I left them in my shed over the winter. They froze from what I know, but they appear to be sprouting in the bag! Are they still good? Will I be able to plant them when the soil is soft?
Thanks in advance!

Hotel very nicePosted Feb 17, 2015
Hotel is fairly new still and in very good condition. Room very comfortable and large, room for most part was clean, night stand had sticky rings from a glass from former occupant. Breakfast is supposed to be from 6:00am to 11:00am, went down at 6:35 and it wasn't ready, went out for a while and came back at 10:30 and still no breakfast, woman at front desk said it was cleaned up already. Although Pool was small it was nice and warm. Gym facility very nice. Staff nice and helpful. I would recommend to stay at.

Tolerable but just barelyPosted Dec 28, 2014 on Hotels.com
The hotel was tolerable. The sliding door to one bathroom wouldn't stay closed; the TV worked poorly, with fuzzy reception and service stopping every few minutes. When we pulled out the couch to make the bed, we spotted crumbs and old potato chips under the couch. (Yuck!) The elevators looked a bit shabby and needed vacuuming. Our family needed three extra towels, but there were none dry so we waited about an hour to receive still-damp towels (and only two of them). Staff were trying hard and they were friendly and pleasant. Breakfast was fine.

Jenice Armstrong | Our shocking ignorance
Do we continue to need it?
Or has the month-long designation outlived its usefulness?
Is it offensive even to attempt to cram black history into February, the shortest month of the year? And why do the accomplishments of African-Americans need to be spotlighted anyway?
Just last weekend, Serena Williams came from behind to win the Australian Open, Tiger Woods is the best golfer on the planet, and the country's leading pop-culture icon is Oprah Winfrey, a self-made billionaire. Also, for the first time ever, African Americans - Eddie Murphy, Jennifer Hudson and Forest Whitaker - stand a chance of sweeping the biggest prizes at the Academy Awards.
It's head-spinning when you stop and think about some of what has transpired. It's enough to make Carter G. Woodson sit up and give a high five from his grave. When he started Negro History Week in 1926, which later morphed into Black History Month, it was to address the fact that the accomplishments of blacks routinely got short-shrift not only in textbooks but in terms of public acknowledgment.
"Those who have no record of what their forebears have accomplished lose the inspiration which comes from the teaching of biography and history," wrote Woodson, who was known as the Father of Black History.
It was his wish that designating a special time to spotlight the accomplishments of African-Americans would be only a temporary move. Woodson anticipated a day when America would not only recognize but embrace the roles of all its citizens, regardless of race.
Actor Morgan Freeman was right-on back in 2005 when on "60 Minutes" he pointed out that black history needs to be taught as an integral part of American history. I believe strongly that the two can't be separated. We shouldn't need special classes or certain times of the year to get our dose of either.
At the same time, though, Americans are woefully ignorant of our past. Anything that can be done to fill in the knowledge gaps is a positive thing, especially considering the findings of a recent study by the University of Connecticut's Department of Public Policy. It discovered the shocking fact that while 81 percent of college students recognized that the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech advocated racial equality, most of them believed he was calling for an end to slavery. That's horrifying.
It's also another indication that although significant advances have been made, much more needs to be done. Not just for black Americans or white Americans but for all Americans. And until we get further along in that process, there's still a need to set aside time to make sure that the history that gets taught is inclusive of everyone.
I've written about it before and I'll continue saying it. Probably at the same time next year. *

SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Activist investor Carl Icahn picked up another $500 million of Apple Inc (AAPL.O) shares on Thursday to take his investment in the iPhone maker to $3.6 billion, while ratcheting up his months-long campaign to pry open the company's cash hoard.
Icahn, who repeatedly has called Apple a "no brainer" even as he wages a campaign to get it to return more cash to shareholders, tweeted his latest move just a day after revealing a position of over $3 billion in the company.
In a lengthy letter to shareholders filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Thursday, Icahn urged shareholders to vote "yea" to his proposal for a new $50 billion buyback, and laid out familiar arguments as to why Apple should share more of its $146 billion cash hoard.
Apple's strong market position in smartphones and tablets does not justify the company's official stance that it needed to maintain reserves to compete in a fast-evolving consumer electronics industry, Icahn said.
He said the stock's price-to-earnings multiple stood 71 percent below the S&P 500's and that the shares could be worth $840 if that gap was closed. An expansion of its capital return program could help bridge that difference, while allowing the company to express confidence in its own stock.
"Even if the story ended with Apple's existing product and software lines, we would still choose to make Apple our largest investment," Icahn said in the letter.
"But there is more to the story! (CEO) Tim Cook keeps saying that he expects to introduce 'new products in new categories' and yet very few people seem to be listening."
Apple on Thursday referred back to its December proxy statement, in which it urged shareholders to vote down Icahn's proposal, warning that it needed ready access to cash in a fast-evolving and competitive mobile devices industry. Arch-foe Samsung Electronics (005930.KS) has grabbed market share from Apple in past years wile a host of smaller rivals like Huawei HWT.UL are aggressively competing in emerging markets.
Shares of Apple closed up 0.8 percent at $556.18.
Icahn, known for decades of strong-arm tactics including proxy fights against major corporations, appears to be stepping up efforts in the technology realm.
On Wednesday, eBay Inc (EBAY.O) disclosed that Icahn had taken a 0.82 percent stake in the company and was pressing for a spinoff of PayPal, the ecommerce giant's fastest-growing and most profitable division.
On Thursday, he set his sights again on Apple, accusing its board of lacking investment management experience.
It was unclear when or how much stock the activist investor, who in August began trying to get Cook to agree to a $150 billion buyback, now holds. In a letter to Cook made public on October 24, Icahn said he had increased his stake to 4.7 million shares.
Apple's stock has surged 17 percent since Icahn first disclosed a significant stake in the company on August 13, when the shares were trading below $500. An additional $500 million investment on Thursday would translate into roughly 900,000 shares at current levels.
Apple is in the midst of returning $100 billion to shareholders, including a total share repurchase program of $60 billion. It said it had already returned $43 billion in dividends and repurchases.
But more could be done, Icahn argued.
"Given this massive net cash position and robust earnings generation, Apple is perhaps the most overcapitalized company in corporate history," Icahn said in his letter.

Yup, they are NEVER useful. Not that spy-archetype rogue that my friend plays in PFS that regularly gets self-perpetuating bluff up to 40 at level 4. Nope, he hasn't saved the party's butt ever. Or that pirate/scout in my skull and shackles game who can charge in any line she wants for sneak attack damage. Never useful ever, nope.
SPAM is useful too. It has decent protein content. It's just not pleasant.
Okay, good. Good to know that my utility wizard is pointless and hasn't saved the party's butt on numerous occasions because he's smart and preps the spells he needs ahead of time, like hold undead, or heroism, or whathaveyou. Weird, I thought that existed, and that I DIDN'T blow through all my spells every day so that the extra-spell a day thing would have been nice, but not required. Good thing you set me strait (eyeroll)
Sure, he's a wizard. He'd be even better as a specialist, though. As long as you're only preparing one opposed school spell per level you'd have at least as many spells and usually more. Taking a big focus school like conjuration and opposing small schools like necromancy and redundancy filled schools like enchantment is cheap and you can still prepare hold undead and heroism and come ahead at every other spell level.
-Swashbuckler with 7 Str, fencing grace, weapon spc, level to damage, etc.-Tengu Slayer with TWF and TW Feint, sneak attack, etc.
-Shield-bashing tank slayer with improved shield bash, shield slam, etc. I don't do a lot of damage, but I make sure people don't get near the squishies by bashing them away.
Your swashbuckler was almost certainly illegal at low levels. Adventuring kit is heavy. Even 11 strength is low for a light armor character and that's just two buy points from qualifying for power attack.
Your tengu slayer should have power attack. Lots of things are immune to sneak attack. Lots of things that aren't immune to sneak attack will have feint DCs that you won't always hit. Nothing is immune to power attack. If he also cheated on the encumbrance rules and lacked strength he should have had piranha strike, which is power attack by another name.
Your tank slayer should have power attack. He really should have power attack. Really. Even if you never intend to use power attack this character should have it. Power attack is a prerequisite for improved bull rush. You're sabotaging the reliability of your main tactic by not taking the improved maneuver feats.

A. Tinaunum Dormancy
Any suggestions for the conditions to keep a dormant A titanum in? Have in a peat, potting, vermiculite mix with rocks on the bottom to improve drainage. How often to water? Where to store light/dark? and finally should I go ahead and cut the plant away from the corm or let it drop naturally? It is beyond gone, but remains holding on.
As always any advice is greatly appreciated.
Your mix sounds OK but you may want to improve it according to the directions of the Bonn Botanical Garden which has one of the best track records of growing and blooming this species. I've copied the link below from the International Aroid Society.
You can either remove the Amorphophallus titanum tuber and wrap it in slightly damp burlap or just leave it in the mixture but it should not be watered at all (according to the Bonn Garden and several noted botanists that specialize in this genus) until it breaks dormancy.
If the plant is dormant remove the petiole. There is a major difference in a corm and a tuber and all the top aroid botanists say no aroid grows from a corm. There are a few plants in the Amorphophallus group that appear "corm-like" but none are true corms.
Here is a link that might be useful: Amorphophallus titanum
If you will visit the link below to the University of Illinois they explain the differences in a bulb, corm and a tuber with good diagrams. All three are basically underground starch storage structures but the placement of the roots, leaf layers inside a bulb (cut open an onion), and other structures make them all distinct.
Here is a link that might be useful: Difference in a bulb, a corm and a tuber.
Exotic...thank you as always...being new to this here is what I have ...a fist sized hard ball, bulb? with roots(now dried) comming off of it. It has a single stalk..now withered shooting off from the top...so looking at your links all of these things...stems roots..etc. should be picked...cut off before putting to bed.
Although it is common for growers to call that "fist" sized entity a "bulb" or "corm" is is truly a tuber. Aroids only grow from tubers.
The stalk that grows from the tuber is the single petiole of the plant. Other plant species have a petiole for every leaf. A petiole is just the stalk that supports any leaf and is technically a part of the leaf itself.
Many people confuse the petiole and the stem since the technical definition of a stem is it has nodes, internodes, roots and supports leaves. What that definition leaves out is the "leaf" is a made up of a combination of the leaf blade and a petiole. Obviously, the petiole does not have nodes or internodes and does not grow roots.
The leaf at the top of the petiole of an Amorphophallus is unique in that it is a divided leaf with a series of leaflets supported on a stalk-like plant structure known as a rachis that grows from the petiole.
Most people call the petiole the "stem" but the stem in the case of an Amorphophallus is the tuber itself which has a single node and also produces roots from the top.
The word stem means the central axis and support of the plant so the support of the leaf cannot be a stem.
It is late at night so if I have repeated myself please forgive me. The link below will explain this better and includes photos.
Here is a link that might be useful: What is a stem and what is a petiole?
probably the top grower of this species in the world is the person on ebay that sells them in huge numbers, and has flowered more than anyone else and is likely the top seed producer in the world from what I gather (I do not know this person at all by the way). In any event, I would ask him how he grows his assuming you have a state-of-the-art greenhouse like he does....in the absence of that you likely want to ask someone that grows them in conditions that mimic yours since this is the most relevant info you can get. I find that info from growers that have GH or live in tropical conditions rarely helps me out, but that is just me because I do not have a GH and live in zone 6 :o) I've had mine for 5-6 years now and when they go dormant I leave them alone in their pots and water when they are quite dry. Once it starts to grow again I repot. I have always kept mine in very poor soil and underpotted because I can not afford to have them get big (no room for a 15 foot tall plant and a tuber that is 50-100 pounds). Mine now produce a nice-looking 6 foot tall petiole and if they get bigger I will have to get rid of them as I do not have room for something that large. Best of luck with yours :o) Dan

Painting Hive
I am new to bee keeping and am taking classes etc. and will have my first hive at the beginning of May. I want to paint my hives so they will blend in with the background plants- bright white seems too stark, but I realize this helps in summer to keep bees cool. I am thinking of painting the hive light green streaks or a leaf pattern or does the hive need to be solid for some reason? I will keep the hives white if it's best for the bees. Many Thanks!
I don't think it will matter much what color or pattern you paint your hive in a city yard, ...usually not hit by the sun all day long. Still, keep the hive in a sunnier spot, this will lessen the mold issue in hive. In link is a thread on painting. Regarding your dog, time will tell, I had some bees in my backyard with dog and wasn't a problem.
What you could do if it doesn't work out, build a wall with sheets of plywood about 5' tall on the entrance side, bees will have to take more a vertical approach to your hive. Not sure which side you are facing, you can try first without a wall by facing the entrance 180degree away from the dog walk...which could be north or any other direction, preferred facing is south, but that might not be possible in you yard?

Thank you for your suggestions- glad to hear your dog had no problems with your bees. I do have a golden raspberry planted near the front (faces east) which should get rather large and two high back chairs that will deter her; I know she would sniff if given the chance she loves honey. The hive receives plenty of sun from 8:00 to at least 3:30. I can't turn the hive to face south as it is on the neighbor's fence line (have written permission from all neighbors) as I don't want extra bee traffic for them. I have heard rubbing lemon balm on the inside of the hive is soothing to bees; has anyone tried this or recommend doing this?
I only know of lemon oil I use as a swarm lure, a couple of drops inside
a box.
A aggressive hive can be dealt with re-queening...I have never done it or
there was never a need. I had some temperamental hives....usually Italian's, it wasn't all that bad, but it seems these were my best hives bringing in the most honey. After a season or two when she get's superseded, it usually got better.
I rubbed lemongrass essential oil in the interior of mine. Here in cold Maine (I'm a brand new beekeeper as of two days ago, in fact, so you can ignore my advice.) I was advised to paint the roof of my hive a dark color. One is some environmentally friendly black paint called Mystic? or something and the other is painted a low VOC dark green paint. I painted the green hive yellow on the bottom and it looks a little like a John Deere tractor---not the unobtrusive look I was aiming for.
I kind of enjoy seeing the white hives from any room in the house. I have a large, elaborately landscaped garden (my own work) but I like the beehive just as it. It's what it is, and I have to say, I am proud that I keep bees. It would be different if I were hiding it from the neighbors. Besides, I notice the weeds less when I'm looking at the bee hives.
I primed my hives with a high quality oil base paint. It was very humid & took almost a week to fully dry. I thinned it with an additive called penetrol. The finish coat is almost a military green & the color choice was based on the price. I asked the local Sherwin Williams store what he had in the screw up dept. meaning paint that had been ordered & mixed & the customer did not like the color or was simply never bought. I got a gallon of their best oil base paint ( over $40.00 retail ) for $3.00.

Read in November, 2011
I really liked this book with it's different spin on alternate realities and creative uses of magic. I really think it is better than "Charmed Life" which actually started off the series and I'm looking forward to reading the rest of the Chrestomanci books.

Setting the process of selection for the chairperson of the Tamil Nadu Electricity Regulatory Commission (TNERC), the State government has reconstituted the selection committee.
Headed by former judge of the Madras High Court Justice R. Regupathi, the committee includes Chief Secretary Sheela Balakrishnan and the Chairperson of the Central Electricity Authority Neeraja Mathur.
The reconstitution follows an order of the Madras High Court early last month to finalise the selection of the person within three months.
The panel is required to recommend a panel of two names, according to an order notified in the State government gazette.
Changes effected
The reconstitution has been done as two changes have been effected in the composition.
Originally, the panel had Justice K. Sampath, former High Court Judge, and chairperson of the Central Electricity Regulatory Commission.
The post of chairperson of the TNERC is lying vacant since January 2012.
For about six months last year, the Commission became one-member body and in January, one more member was appointed.

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) - Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton is recovering from a surgical procedure to alleviate pain in his hip.
A Dayton spokesman says Monday's surgery at Rochester's Mayo Clinic went as planned. Dayton had postponed it last week so he could attend the funeral of Joan Mondale.
Dayton will remain at Mayo for a few days before returning to the governor's residence, where he will work while recuperating. He will limit travel for up to three months, in part because of a brace he will wear.
It is the 67-year-old governor's third procedure at the Rochester clinic since taking office, following back surgery in December 2012 and a platelet injection last October to help heal a torn hip muscle.
ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) - Minnesota is suing British Petroleum for $25 million, alleging the company double dipped when it sought state funds on top of insurance payments to clean up contamination from leaking petroleum storage tanks.
The Department of Commerce and Minnesota's Petrofund Board filed the suit Monday.
It alleges that from 1988 to 2012, BP received hundreds of millions of dollars in insurance claims to clean up polluted properties statewide. It alleges BP received $25 million from the Petrofund for those same sites.
Before seeking state funds, Petrofund applicants must disclose whether they have insurance, and whether it covers environmental damages. The suit says BP made misrepresentations about its insurance.
BP says it acted in good faith and plans to defend itself against the allegations.
ANOKA, Minn. (AP) - A former Minneapolis police officer accused of using social media to try to lure girls into sexual encounters has pleaded guilty.
Bradley Schnickel pleaded guilty Monday in Anoka County to five counts of criminal sexual conduct, criminal sexual contact or solicitation of minors.
Schnickel had been scheduled to go on trial starting Monday. The Star Tribune (http://strib.mn/1kwU1hO) reports he could face nearly 12 years in prison under the plea agreement.
Last summer, Schnickel was sentenced to one year in the Hennepin County workhouse and six years probation after pleading guilty to sending nude photographs of himself to two teenage girls in that county.
Schnickel was fired from the Minneapolis police force last February.
ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) - Democratic leaders from the Legislature's transportation committees said Monday that they will unveil a proposal next week for funding improvements to roads, bridges and transit across Minnesota.
Sen. Scott Dibble and Rep. Frank Hornstein, both from Minneapolis, announced their intentions following an informational hearing on current transportation needs. The lawmakers, who chair the transportation committees in the Senate and House, will release details of their plan at a joint hearing on Feb. 18, Minnesota Public Radio News reported (http://bit.ly/1faPlHhhttp://bit.ly/1faPlHh ).
While a gas tax increase or other revenue-raising measures will be tough to sell in an election year session, Hornstein said the problems can't wait.
"Transportation challenges and projects don't go away, they just get more expensive," Hornstein said. "So by procrastinating, we're actually throwing money down the drain. That's why these projects need to get done."
Dibble wouldn't talk about specifics, but he said he believes a "robust, comprehensive, multi-modal transportation funding package" is needed this year.

Respond to Review of Govinda
by veg_in_bkk
Review: My husband and I have eaten there a lot for the last 4 years...Anyhow, I noticed that some people have not been able to find it so I wanted to give a description of how to get there: Govinda's is not far down soi 22 at all. As you come from Sukhumvit onto soi 22, you will see a "Top Charoen Optical" sign in blue up on the right side. Shortly after that there is a flower stall, on the right, and there is an entrance to a small plaza. Right after the entrance to the plaza is the restaurant "Larry's Dive" - so don't pass "Larry's". Turn right into the plaza and go to the back left of it, and Govinda's is there.

SAN DIEGO and CHICAGO, Dec. 28, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Shareholder rights firm Robbins Umeda LLP is investigating possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of the law by certain officers and directors of Groupon, Inc. (NASDAQ: GRPN).
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20111014/ROBBINSUMEDALOGO)
Robbins Umeda LLP is investigating whether officers and directors of Groupon breached their fiduciary duties to shareholders by concealing the fact that the company's business was not growing to the extent represented publically. As a result, Groupon's stock traded at artificially inflated prices, reaching a high of $13.05 per share on May 16, 2012.
On November 8, 2012, Groupon announced its third quarter 2012 financial results and fourth quarter revenue forecast. Specifically, Groupon announced a net loss of $3 million, on revenue of $568.6 million for the third quarter, and forecast revenue in the range of $625 million to $675 million for the fourth quarter. These figures were substantially below analysts' expectations of revenues of $590.12 million for the third quarter and $633.87 million for the fourth quarter. Further, Groupon announced that its lower margin business - Groupon Goods - has evolved to become a more significant part of its revenue. Following the announcement, Groupon stock declined nearly 30%, or $1.16 per share, to close at $2.76 on November 9, 2012.
Robbins Umeda LLP highlights that Groupon shareholders have the option to pursue a shareholder derivative action, through which shareholders aim to hold insider wrongdoers accountable for their actions, prevent future misconduct, and bring long-term value back to the company. Concerned shareholders who would like more information about their rights and potential remedies can contact attorney Darnell R. Donahue at (800) 350-6003, [email protected], or via the shareholder information form on the firm's website.
Robbins Umeda LLP is a nationally recognized leader in securities litigation and shareholder rights law. The firm represents individual and institutional investors in shareholder derivative and securities class action lawsuits, and has helped its clients realize more than $1 billion of value for themselves and the companies in which they have invested.
