Blake Wheeler Scored Twice in 15 Seconds Last Night
The Winnipeg Jets opened the 2014-15 season with an odd victory over the Phoenix Coyotes. While the Jets prevailed by a dominating score of 6-2, the game was significantly closer, as Phoenix had more shots, hits, takeaways and faceoff victories. But the Jets have Blake Wheeler and the veteran winger put together a nifty little 15
Predicting The NHL's Division Winners This Season
After a long summer, the NHL's regular season gets underway tonight with three great matchups (Toronto/Montreal, Boston/Philadelphia, and a banner-raising main event between Los Angeles & San Jose) and then…Vancouver/Calgary. Yeah, you should probably just avoid that last one altogether. Teams across the league have made their final roster cuts and are ready to get
UConn Professor Thinks Mike Eruzione is Gay Based on 'The Onion' Article

As any good scholar in academia would do, the irresponsible UConn professor conducted
NHL Jerseys Finally Get The Soccer Kit Crossovers They Deserve

Lightning Created Fake Palm Tree Jersey to Trick Players
There were whispers in Tampa of an alternate jersey for the Lightning's 2014-15 and before the actual (dull) new jersey was revealed, the players were treated to an even worse option.

Tampa Bay Lightning's New Alternate Jersey is Less Than Thrilling
The Tampa Bay Lightning unveiled a new alternate jersey this weekend and it's dull.

While the simplicity is

Paul Bissonnette Responds To Rumors Of Las Vegas NHL Team In Perfect Fashion
Even though it's been reported that NHL expansion to Las Vegas is a "done deal," nothing at all has been confirmed and we'd still have to wait at least a few years before a team was established there. That hasn't stopped NHL free agent and notorious party boy Paul Bissonnette from expressing interest in calling

I honestly dont know what to do...LONG
I am really trying to be the bigger person but my husbands bm is driving me insane. She does little things like calls the house and if i answer she will either hang up the phone, put their son on the phone (he is 8 and doesnt have this telphone thing down quite well, so it takes a minute to get information out of him) or she starts out the conversation "is he there"? REALLY, where did this woman get her manners. I usully dont say anything just hand the phone over to dh. Also when she drops their son off at our house if I come outside to retrieve him,she WILL NOT let him leave the car, AND she continues to blow the horn until dh comes to the door! She also likes to make plans for their son to go to friends (in her neighborhood)events like bday parties on our weekend. When i comment on her disrespect, or ask him to talk to her i usually am greated with rolling of the eyes and sucking of the teeth and a comment on how crazy she is, but nothing else is said or done until the next instance of disrespect. My wish was that he would handle this since i really dont have to deal with her. But he refuses. He has even had the nerve to tell me that i should be more understanding of her behavior since it is only because she isnt over him! Ladies,(and gents) I think I am a patient woman but even Job wouldnt put up with this nonsence. I use to say to myself that when it really mattered he would prove that his loyalty was to me. Well that delusion was shattered when she again did something totally rediculous and inmature and i made a remark (the first Ive ever made) and dh let into me, yelling, swearing and hung up the phone on me. I tried to explain to him how offended i was about the fact that he defended another woman over me and it was to no avail. Needless to say my marriage is in turmoil, we are now separated (soon to be in counseling) but i dont know if this marriage/relationship was ever a good idea.
I must add that my children havent seemed to warm up to him in the 4years we have been together.
I am so sorry to hear about your stress. And god knows, that is the mild way to put it. It sounds very much like your dh is actually enjoying the fact that she isn't over him. It also sounds as though, in the 4yrs?, you have been married, he hasn't done anything to change her view of him. As in- no longer her's. The fact that he is showing you no respect by rolling his eyes at your comments about her, obviously obsessive, behavior says more than the rest of it. If he were engaged in your relationship, he would respect your feelings, at least to the point of showing you respect to your face. He isn't even doing that. Please, tell me if I have misread the situation, but I don't see where he is doing anything to stop her behavior. I also have to say that there must be something about him to not let your children warm up to him. Is he as disrespectful of them?
As far as the phone thing- I can only suggest that if she refuses to deal with you, then you shouldn't be forced to deal with her. Caller ID, anyone? If she calls, you shouldn't be expected to answer the phone. Your dh should be told she called, whether by phone or in person, and he should return the call. Especially with him not being willing to deal with her irrational behavior, he should be the only one to deal with it.
One question- how is your relationship with the child? That can affect how he looks at things, too.
Thanks peanutmom for your reply. In answer to your questions; we are only married for 7 months and living together for the remainder of the 4 years, and its been this constant battle (at least on my part) to identify myself as the "woman in his life". I see, and agree (now that you mention it) that he is getting some sort of pleasure from the ex not being over him. You hit the nail on the head, so to speak, about my children not liking him because of his disrespect towards us all. Now i must say that our situation is a little different than most. This is my second marriage; my first husband is deceased(they were all pretty young when he passed, but old enough to remember: 5,7,12). This is my dh first marriage. He is a passive aggressive personality with some big time control issues. He believes that I codle my kids, and that they are mommas boys (i am not proud of that, but will admit to it). I do get along with his son (he is a good kid), inspite of how dh and bm behave. the punishments for my children never fit the crime, nor are they equal to punishments (or lack there of) that are handed out to ss for the same behavior, i think he may be overcompensating for only being able to get his son on the weekends.
I dont post on here often but I am an avid reader. Let me start by saying I hope everything turns around for you and all the kids involved. Second, please don't take this offensivly, but get out now. If after four years your children still arent comfortable with him and he is still acting like a "strutting rooster", things obviously arent going to change. You said you feel you know what a therapist will say, then I think deep down you know what the right choice is. When there is so much turmoil involved sometimes it's best to just remove yourself and your children from the source. Again, hope all turns out well for everyone involved.
is it just me or there are more and more posts about awful marriages and terrible husbands? like every day new thread opens up? and women ask what should they do (when it is obvious)
...if people have no children then it is up to them to stay in bad marriages or not, but why women with children stay with bad men is beyond me...i never understood choosing men over children.
First, let me say, I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your first spouse. Second, please understand that you need to take care of yourself and your children first.
I agree with the need to get out if you know that he is passive- aggressive and has control issues. I can speak from experience when I say, "get ready to get out and do it all at once". If you give him an inch it will only change for a little while, just long enough to reel you in and then it will go back and build even more. If I am reading this correctly, you have no children together. It is time to go. Find a safe place to be and don't be afraid to ask for help.
It is common, not right or fair, but common for parents to favor their birth children. Read my post(this might be a long one). Just acknowledging that we all have issues. It is hard to understand when you have good kids why the other parent finds it so hard to deal with them being so attached to you. It is only natural for your kids to be attached to you, considering the death of your spouse. You are still trying to find a way to deal with it, but you know there is none. I was in your shoes in my first marriage. It doesn't get better- it will get worse. I hate to put it so harshly, but if you can get out sooner than later, you will minimize the damage to your children's emotions. Right now, they can't or won't verbalize it, but they can't understand why you are living this way. I can tell you none of us are perfect or have the right to tell anyone how to live, or not live, as the case may be, but you know in your heart and gut what is right for you and your children. Please, take care, and when you make your choice- act on it swiftly to see yourself outside of his realm of influence so you don't end up hurting even worse.
I completely agree with everything peanutmom said. She is right that this will only get worse... and I'm pretty sure you know it's true too.
I would only add that there are organizations who can help you get out safely. Use them. I know it's hard to ask for help but if you are unsure how he will respond then ask for help. Men can change, and situations greatly worsen, if they know you are leaving. Take whatever steps you need to take to ensure you all will be safe. And, then for the sake of you and your children... don't look back. Just remember that what you live with today is what your children grow up thinking is normal. You can give them a better life.
Take care of yourself & your kids!
I agree with all here, but let me add that you should try to make sure your financial issues are as quickly as possible. If he has control issues, you could find that he empties your accounts the minute you leave. See if you can find a way to protect your assets NOW. See a lawyer for advice if you can, without him knowing. The organizations that can help you get our safely can also give you advice about this.
Jacks Mom should post more often!
Ditto on what Cap said about the finances issue.
I'm not going to comment about the rest because I completely agree with what the others had to say although I will comment on the loyalty issue. If that was the ONLY issue (which of course it is NOT and, in actuality, is only minor considering the other issues at hand), my opinion would be that men can be really obtuse and just not understand the first 100 times you tell them how you're feeling! My husband was the same way until that time when he volunteered my services to BM without consulting me -- maybe it was the murderous glint in my eyes or the fire coming out of my ears but he finally figured it out!! There have been a couple of relapses over the years but for the most part he really tries and I had to learn to forgive some of his transgressions!! Only some though!!!

Carnival Pride Tips
a stateroom with a balcony is a must and the cheeseburgers on lido deck were the best with the seasoned fries, the ice cream was a very great hit.
A stateroom with a balcony is always a plus I think,and try their Rueben on Libido deck,one of the best I have had thepleasure to eat
Get to the hot tubs on the first night while you can while everyone is checking out the ship ceause after that they are never free!
Don't miss eating the food from Guy's Place! Phenomenal!! Don't miss the show, 88 Keys! Also, Phenomenal!! Wear sunscreen.
Movies on the Lido big screen were a nice option. Comedians were funny. Guys' Hamburgers Joint was very good. Lots of room on the 10th deck to enjoy the views.
The balcony stateroom was great and the chilled soups (peach, cherry, mango, and strawberry) in the main dining room were the best I've ever tasted. If you've never tasted the chilled fruit soups, this is a must!!!
I would recommend a balcony, we had an ocean suite with an extended balcony and an interior room. Both were spacious and comfortable but a private balcony is a nice place for the family to enjoy the ocean day and night in a private setting.
Don't miss the brunch served in the dining room on sea days. It's a nice departure from Lido deck breakfast.

Celestia's sun rose, bathing everything under its warm glorious light. Two ponies rolled on a cloud bed, breathing heavily, resting from a very long and exciting night where they did everything but sleep. Rainbow Dash was happily lying on top of her fillyfriend while the two recovered their breaths.
"I… I-I love you… I love you Applejack, with every beat of my heart. I love you so much. Words can't describe how much I love you. Have I ever told you how much I love you AJ?"
The emerald-eyed farmer earth pony chuckled at her lover's mindless state. "Ah guess Ah'm not jes good at bucking huh Rainbow?"

"N-no, don't say it…"
"Ah can't believe it took me this long to say this, but Ah need y'all to know."
"Please, please just sh-shut up, stop it right now…" A pair of crystal tears ran down her cheeks, breaking Applejack's heart in the process.
"Ah knew it, she doesn't love me back, n… n' she knows what Ah'm gonna tell'er, b-but she needs to hear it, n' Ah need to say it."

This story is the first of two bonus chapters for two different stories. My 'Of Horseshoes, Apples and Feathers' and my friend The Irish Brony X's 'Honesty and Loyalty' who was inspired by mine. These are not vital to the plot but makes some things more understandable. If you haven't read the stories, then go and do it! Specially 'Honesty and Loyalty' it's awesome.

The cyan pony was proudly looking at the necklace she was wearing. Gold, with some engravings and a big red gemstone, probably a ruby, shaped like a lightning bolt.
"Element of Loyalty? Ha! This is so awesome!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed in a happy fashion.
She looked back up and examined her surroundings. She was in a very old castle, seriously decayed and torn apart by time and the strange non-pony-controlled weather. It was dark, the moon was up, and she was here in this castle far away from Ponyville, but she was not alone. She turned around to see another pegasus, loo

Rates are a bit higher then compared to most and if I had more time when looking I might have gone with another company but was in a bind and needed fast storage and this was close to home and available so no time to shop around.

I hope you share this with them and give them the recognition they deserve :)Alexandra from Lantana, FL

"For far too long, Afghan women have been faceless and voiceless. Until now. With The Patience Stone, Atiq Rahimi gives face and voice to one unforgettable woman–and, one could argue, offers her as a proxy for the grievances of millions…it is a rich read, part allegory, part a tale of retribution, part an exploration of honor, love, sex, marriage, war. It is without doubt an important and courageous book." from the introduction by Khaled Hosseini, author of The Kite Runner and A Thousand Splendid Suns
In Persian folklore, Syngue Sabour is the name of a magical black stone, a patience stone, which absorbs the plight of those who confide in it. It is believed that the day it explodes, after having received too much hardship and pain, will be the day of the Apocalypse. But here, the Syngue Sabour is not a stone but rather a man lying brain-dead with a bullet lodged in his neck. His wife is with him, sitting by his side. But she resents him for having sacrificed her to the war, for never being able to resist the call to arms, for wanting to be a hero, and in the end, after all was said and done, for being incapacitated in a small skirmish. Yet she cares, and she speaks to him. She even talks to him more and more, opening up her deepest desires, pains, and secrets. While in the streets rival factions clash and soldiers are looting and killing around her, she speaks of her life, never knowing if her husband really hears. And it is an extraordinary confession, without restraint, about sex and love and her anger against a man who never understood her, who mistreated her, who never showed her any respect or kindness. Her admission releases the weight of oppression of marital, social, and religious norms, and she leads her story up to the great secret that is unthinkable in a country such as Afghanistan. Winner of the Prix Goncourt, The Patience Stone captures with great courage and spare, poetic, prose the reality of everyday life for an intelligent woman under the oppressive weight of the Taliban regime in Afghanistan.
"The Patience Stone is perfectly written: spare, close to the bone, sometimes bloody, with a constant echo, like a single mistake that repeats itself over and over and over."—Los Angeles Times
"This story from an Afghan-born author is a powerful one, giving voice to the historically downtrodden Afghan woman…truly an expansive work of literature."—New York Post
"[A] clever novel…readers get a glimpse of daily life in a country terrorized by conflict and religious fundamentalism. Rahimi paints this picture with nuance and subtlety…[His] sparse prose complements his simple yet powerful storytelling prowess. This unique story is both enthralling and disturbing."—San Francisco Chronicle
"Rahimi's lyric prose is simple and poetic, and McLean's translation is superb. With an introduction by Khaled Hosseini, this Prix Goncourt-winning book should have a profound impact on the literature of Afghanistan for its brave portrayal of, among other things, an Afghan woman as a sexual being."—Library Journal
"A slender, devastating exploration of one woman's tormented inner life, which won the 2008 Prix Goncourt...The novel, asserts [Khaled] Hosseini in his glowing introduction, finally gives a complex, nuanced, and savage voice to the grievances of millions."—Words Without Borders
"In this remarkable book Atiq Rahimi explores ways through which personal and political oppression can be resisted through acts of self-revelation. He reveals to us the violence we are capable of imposing upon ourselves and others both in our personal as well as political and social relations. In a manner all the more effective because of his stark and compact style, Rahimi recreates for us the texture of such violence, its almost intimate brutality as well as its fragility. Just as remarkable is the fact that although the story happens within the context of a particular time and place, the emotions it evokes and relationships it creates have universal implications and could happen to any of us under similar conditions. The Patience Stone is relevant to us exactly because as Rahimi says it takes place 'Somewhere in Afghanistan or elsewhere.'"—Azar Nafisi, author of Reading Lolita in Tehran and Things I've Been Silent About
"With a veiled face and stolen words, a woman keeps silent about her forbidden pain in an Afghanistan marred by men's foolishness. But when she rediscovers her voice, she overcomes the chaos. Atiq Rahimi tells the story of this woman's heartbreaking lamentation to awaken our consciences."—Yasmina Khadra, author of The Swallows of Kabul
The room is bare. Bare of decoration. Except on the wall between the two windows, where someone has hung a small khanjar and, above the khanjar, a photo, of a man with a moustache. He is perhaps thirty years old. Curly hair. Square face, bracketed by a pair of neatly tended sideburns. His black eyes shine. They are small, separated by a hawklike nose. The man is not laughing, and yet seems as if he's holding back a laugh. This gives him a strange expression, that of a man inwardly mocking those who look at him. The photo is in black and white, hand-colored in drab tones. Facing this photo, at the foot of a wall, the same man–older now–is lying on a red mattress on the floor. He has a beard. Pepper and salt. He is thinner. Too thin. Nothing but skin and bones. Pale.Wrinkled. His nose more hawklike than ever. He still isn't laughing, and still looks strangely mocking. His mouth is half-open. His eyes, even smaller now, have retreated into their sockets. His gaze is fixed on the ceiling, on the exposed, blackened, rotting beams. His arms lie passive along his sides. Beneath the translucent skin, his veins like exhausted worms twine around the jutting bones of his body. On his left wrist he wears a wind-up watch, and on the ring finger a gold wedding band. A catheter drips clear liquid into the crook of his arm from a plastic pouch attached to the wall just above his head. The rest of his body is covered by a long blue shirt, embroidered at collar and cuffs. His legs, stiff as two stakes, are buried under a white sheet. A dirty sheet. A hand, a woman's hand, is resting on his chest, over his heart, moving up and down in time with his breath. The woman is seated. Legs pulled up and into her chest. Head bundled between her knees. Her dark hair–very dark, and long–flows over her slumped shoulders, echoing the regular movement of her arm.
1. All of the characters in this book remain nameless. Discuss the significance of this. Why do you think the author chose not to give them names?
2. War is raging literally outside the woman's window. At one point she refers to the city as being both deaf and blind. What does she mean by this. On the Dedication page the author writes "Somewhere in Afghanistan or elsewhere." What do you suppose he is trying to convey with this statement?
3. The pattern of migrating birds on the curtain fabric is described repeatedly throughout the book. What is the significance of the imagery of birds suspended in flight? How does this imagery parallel the wounded man's existence? His wife's?
4. At the beginning of the story, the woman is distraught at the prospect of losing her husband. "Without you I have nothing!" she cries. What did she have with him? What is it that she is afraid of losing?
5. The woman begs her husband to come back to life. She wails, "you've no right to leave us like this, without a man." Discuss what it means in this culture for a woman to live without a man.
6. The man's injuries were the result of a quarrel over the honor of a woman, and yet as a result, his wife and daughters are left alone lacking the support of any men. Discuss the irony of this.
7. The woman insists that since her husband's brothers were so proud to see him fight their enemies, they should help honor their fallen brother and themselves by helping take care of the woman and her children. Discuss the concept of honor as it is represented in this book. How does the woman's idea of honor differ from the perspective of her husband and his family?
8. "After all he fought in your name for so long. For Jihad!" the woman pleads with God. Why do you suppose she feels she is owed divine intervention?
9. The woman attempts to inflict pain on her comatose husband by pressing hard on his bullet wounds. Frustrated at his lack of response she yells, "Even injured you've been spared suffering!" What does she mean by this? Who do you see as suffering the most in this story?
10. At first the woman is devoted to praying for her husband, reading the Koran, and reciting the names of God in her desire to see him healed. At one point she seems to lose her will to pray, believing God will save him without her help. Has she lost her faith? What was the turning point for her where she stopped taking responsibility for his recovery?
11. The woman recounts an incident where her husband raped her but then realizes she was menstruating and beat her for defiling him and making him unclean. Who was defiled in this situation? Discuss the dichotomy of the men's perceptions in this book of blood as both clean and impure.
12. Flies, spiders, and wasps appear frequently throughout this book. Discuss the meaning of this imagery.
13. Discuss the significance of the peacock feather and what it represents.
14. The woman reveals that her father agreed to give her up for marriage to a man her family had never met and that their marriage occurred before they ever met. Cast off by her own father, mistreated by her husband, and ultimately abandoned by his family, who in this story shows the woman love and respect?
15. When the woman begins her liaisons with the young boy, he shows her tenderness by bringing her gifts and opening up to her about his own oppressive existence. What emotions does this boy ignite in her? She in him?
16. Once the woman starts divulging her deepest, darkest secrets to her comatose husband, she begins to get afraid that confessing her sins will destroy her, that by divulging her secrets to her husband he will gain possession over her. Does telling the truth set her free in any way?
17. As the woman grows more physically and emotionally intimate with her husband, she feels closer to him than ever before. In what ways is this closeness real? Imagined? She begins to believe that her confessions have fundamentally changed him and that if he comes back to life he'll be a better man. Who has been changed in this relationship? Were you hopeful that she might be right?
18. Discuss the ending of the story. Do you believe the man was conscious all along of everything that was being said and done in the house? A khanjar (the weapon the woman drives into her husband's heart) is a symbolic weapon worn by men after puberty. Discuss the significance of the use of this particular object by the woman. How do you explain lack of blood from the wounds she inflicts on him? What is your interpretation of the knock on the door and the person who enters the room?

This is one of those books that makes you glad to be American. We Americans complain about how bad off we are. This book and others like it make me grateful to be an American.
I also have new respect for Afghani woman who must endure this barbaric system.

The Patience Stone, also called Syngue Sabour, is said to absorb the grief of people who confess to it. This concept is used as a strong metaphor in this brief but powerful story. A woman sits vigil over her comatose husband. He was injured in Afghanistan fighting in a jihad. As she waits, often hiding from marauding soldiers, seeking shelter from bombs, and vaguely caring for her young daughter, she talks to her husband. This one-sided conversation is the heart of the book. She is at turns angry and resentful over his abandonment and mistreatment of her, then loving and beseeching his forgiveness, then defiantly confessing her sins. Her voice comes across as raw and authentic and her pain is sometimes difficult to hear. The writing is very lyrical, sometimes almost sounding like poetic prose. I listened to this book on audio. The reader, Atiq Rahimi, does a fantastic job, her voice rising harsh and hysterical at times and dropping low and soothing at others, matching the story perfectly.Was this review helpful?

I read this book honestly because of Khalid Hosseini's introduction. But as I went on reading it, I could not put the book down.It is a true depiction of how woman in India, Pakistan and Afghanistan feel. They rarely get a chance to express themselves to their husbands.
Great Job and a awesome plot!

yucky tomato worms - can I get rid of them? Pic included
I found this guy happily burrowing into an unripe tomato yesterday. It's hard to tell from the pic, but it appears to have laid some eggs. Yuck! I looked over the rest of plant, didn't see any more but I can only assume this one's not alone.
Can I get rid of them before they spread to the rest of my plants? It seems like they only like this one plant... I bought a variety flat and was lazy about labeling, so I have no idea what type of tomato I've got.
Image link:
I can't see the "worm' at all, but if it bored into the fruit, chances are, it's a fruitworm. Very nasty. Bt or Dipel dust will control them. Hornworms tend to mostly eat leaves, but will nibble small green fruits, but not burrow into them. Also, hornworms seldom, if ever, bite into ripening fruits.

Felidae is the biological family of the cats; a member of this family is called a felid. Felids are the most strictly carnivorous of the sixteen mammal families in the order Carnivora. The most familiar felid is the Domestic Cat, which first became associated with humans about 10,000 years ago, but the family includes all other wild cats including the big cats.

Hi Tom, he is beautiful and you've captured his majesty so well;)
Lovely shot!
Thank you Helene, the shot was taken through a wire grille ( of course!) hand held and it was just after feed time for "Leo" thus his contented and regal countenance.
Thank you for your comments Shanina, he does look great, you just want to pat him , but I think I will pass on that myself
he's gorgeous! what a lovely soul, i like how you've captured the detail, and there are some nice shadows too
THanks thickblackoutline :-)
I just love the big cats, respect and admire them. It's a shame we need to keep some in zoos just to make sure they can survive ….. well captured Tom!
Thanks barbie :-) It is very tragic to see beautiful creatures such as these living in a restricted environment. The Melbourne Zoo has provided an improved environment within their ability to do so. I cannot imagine how wild captive animals survived in small cages as they did when I was a boy and watched them frantically pace up and down in the Circus and the Zoo cages
man look at those eyes. very cool shot
Thanks Jeff :-)

Why I chose the Empower Network as my platform 1. I spent a lot of money and several months trying to set up a blog on another platform. I spent more time tweaking than blogging. For $25.00 a month, all the work is done for you. As soon as you join the system, you will be given a blog under Empower Network. Your blog will become a sub-domain of the system, all you have to do is log in and start blogging. 2. SEO – This blog sits on an 10-year old domain. In SEO, search engines consider the age of the domain your content is on. They use it to decide which websites they will display for customers when they are searching for a specific keyword. Search engines often rank old domains as an authority websites, helping you get a much higher ranking than you could on your own. Because of the number of people blogging here at that Empower Network, Google looks at it as an authority site and gives it higher placement in the search engines. I have written a post and had it listed on page one literally overnight. Unless you know a lot about Search Engine Optimization, that's nearly impossible to do on your own. 3. The $25.00 a month I pay for this platform goes directly to the person who referred me to it. This benefits me because they have a vested interested in helping me learn all about blogging and online marketing. When you sign up for this blog, you'll have the option to refer it to others as well. Every time you refer an active member, you will receive $25.00 every month they stay active. With all the support I received, the Empower Network blog helped me to (finally) find the courage and resources to create my own blog and earn some extra income for every referral. 4. The Empower Network training – what they offer here for free with regards to internet marketing training far surpasses courses I've spent 100′s of dollars on. Whether you decide to join the Empower Network or not, you'll find value in this 6 part bootcamp training series available here; an invaluable tool for building an online business of any type! 4

recliner or chair/ottoman
Another dilemna. I am trying to decide what to get hubby. Either a wall recliner or chair/ottoman. He's 6'4" and 250 lbs. Told me to get what I want.
For recliners, Flexsteel or Lazy-Boy?
Flexsteel. Ask the dealer for the Flexsteel Big Man's chair. It only comes in this model but can be ordered in any covering. See my other post. My ex is 6-3 and 350 pounds.
Here is a link that might be useful: Triton Recliner
For a wall recliner, you need excess space in back of the recliner unless it is a zero clearance type recliner.
For a chair and ottoman you need space in front of the chair for the ottoman.
So make the decision as to how each would best fit in the room.
Cannot recommend either of the two brands you listed. Motion upholstery in my view is one of those pieces of furniture you don't buy if you are not willing to buy top or near top of the line. The reason is that premature failure of the recliner mechanism is an all too common problem.
Look for a well made club chair and ottoman. Most recliners just end up looking old,tired and cheap. They are often clunky and ugly. A nice size club chair and ottoman will do double duty for you. The ottoman can always act as extra seating/table. He can really stretch out and get comfy.
If you want to make it a lifetime piece go for a grade 3 or higher leather. If you can't/don't want to do that buy the best pieces you can afford (hand-tied and all that) and enjoy.
I agree that both brands are not very good. My best friend has Lazy-Boy and learned real fast that they were not a good investment. Although recliners have improved over the years, recliners are not known to be sturdy pieces of furniture. I'd go with the chair and ottoman. But if you really want a recliner, check out the Hancock and Moore. The MSRP is high, but you can get a really good price from Lexington Furniture Company in Lexington KY on Hancock and Moore. Website is lexfurniture.com. I can't comment on their delivery service as I have not recieved my furniture yet. I've heard that their D & D delivery company is lousey. I requested they use Sun delivery when my furniture is ready.
I like the Natuzzi recliners. They are not ugly, there is a nice choice of colors in microfiber and leather, and they are not all the same in terms of size. I have a small one that fits me very nicely.
Aren't club chairs the ones with short backs? I can't see a man comfortable on one of those.
What are your dh's lounging habits? Does he lie down on the sofa or has he ever fallen asleep in an upright position while reading or watching tv? If so get a recliner. If he doesn't then I don't think you can go wrong with either purchase.
My dh tried out both and he feel in love with the recliner. We chose Hancock & Moore. Hancock & Moore has a long warrenty on everything and it is very well made. I have a friend who has had one for over 10 yrs and it still looks wonderful. My mom's dh has a Lazy-Boy which is about 5 yrs old, looks worn and is having problems with the mechanism.
Good luck with your decision.

Finally, we are in Al's office where E.B. has come to deliver the letter from Hearst. It was for Al, of course. I can't believe that, in what may be the last episode ever, they didn't show us Al until minute nineteen. That ain't right. It should have been Al from start to finish just walking around kicking people in the nuts. Even in the face of what could be a big disaster, Al finds time to rib E.B. "You don't expect me to believe," he jokes, "you didn't steam this open and reseal it for me to open again." E.B. sullenly says he didn't want to know what was in the letter. Al holds the magnifying glass up to read the thing before slamming it all down on the table and emphatically cursing Hearst: "This motherfucker!" Oh, it's Al at his most pure. Y'all, seriously, Al has had it with Hearst. He has HAD IT. Has he not endured enough at the hands of this blustering bastard? What with the finger-chopping and the Dan-fighting and the election-fixing and the Ellsworth-killing? I mean, come ON. Not surprisingly, though, E.B. thinks it's all about him. "For my complicity in his shooting," he says, thinking he's divined the note's contents, "he orders my death." Al delightfully sticks it to him again: "You did read it!" he says, smiling. E.B. practically swoons into a chair and, exposing his neck, asks that Al finish him off, quickly. "Your complicity's mostly in your noggin', E.B.," Al regrettably informs him. "It's the whore he wants dead." E.B. fans himself, both relieved and disgusted. "By what vile method then?" he asks, shaking his fists at the ceiling. "Is Trixie to be drawn and quartered and set aflame?"
Al dryly tells him to tell Hearst he'll have his answer in an hour, but E.B. is not done falling apart. "I can't, Al," he begs. "I can't engage him in further conversation. When I hear his voice, I see the inside of his skull! Phantoms grin out at me, oozing gruesome goo." During this panic attack, Al whips out a piece of paper and pencil, and writes a message for Hearst. "Slide this under his door then," he says to the histrionic E.B. who, seeing that Al has given him the easier option, decides to gird up his loins and take the hard road of delivering it in person. "Fear," he says, walking tall as he makes his exit, "is every man's portion." Ain't it the damn truth?
For whatever reason, Joanie has gone to the Bella Union to visit Cy. I hate to brush this off, I really do, because I love Joanie and honestly, I love Cy, as well. I feel like the whole Bella Union staff got the shaft this season (insert joke here re: Con's shaft ["And insert 'insert Con's shaft' joke right after that. And then throw up." -- Joe R]) and this scene does little to redeem the damage already done. The gist is, Joanie has come to, in spite of everything, thank Cy for keeping her alive all those years, not letting her kill herself, and trying to make her happy. She's found some happiness now, she says, and she wants to make peace with him. He's all drunk and ugly and when she tries to engage him in conversation about all the Hearst bidness, he makes a snide remark about her relationship with Jane. It's pitiful, really, how he's fallen to this state of self-loathing, and she sees it and leaves him to wallow, walking out with her head held high.

Cucumbers in South Florida?!
Hi Everybody!
I just moved to South Florida, and have started a small vegetable garden. I tried to grow Sumter and Marketmore organic cucumbers, but they haven't done very well like they did back home in Atlanta. They've really struggled actually being that they didn't produce much and even died quite quickly.
Does anyone on this forum grow cucumber in South Florida successfully? If so, I'd love to know what varieties and any tips!
These are cucumbers' enemies:
1. Hot or cold temperatures- You have to plant at the right time of year.
2. Disease: Particularly powder mildew. You can plant a resistant variety and spray anti-fungals to prevent this. Good air circulation is also important.
3. Nematodes and/or poor soil fertility. Our sand is not the favorite of cucumbers. Grow in containers or raised beds with good loose soil.
4. Insects- Lots. My least favorite is the pickelworm.
Do you think one of these may be your cucumber killer?
Try one or all of these cucumbers. They are parthenocarpic
(do not need pollinating) and are bred for resistance to our
Florida problems. Plant them in large pots and use a potting
mix and a trellis because of Florida's nematodes living in the
sandy soil. This should help eliminate some of your cuke
growing problems.
Diva Hybrid Cucumber (Park 5516)
The Most Delicious Burpless Cuke Yet!
Heavy-yielding plants resist just about every pest and disease!
58 days from sowing, 32 days from transplants. Diva is simply
delectable, with thin, tender skin, crisp flesh, and a flavor
that combines sweetness with a genuine cucumber bite impossible
to find in the bland supermarket varieties today. It arises very
abundantly on vigorous, disease-resistant plants, giving you a
huge crop of the finest burpless cucumber I have tasted in a
long time! No wonder it was a 2002 All America Selection!
These 6- to 8-inch-long cukes look as good as they taste.
Spineless and forest-green, they are plump, well-shaped, and
packed with crunchy texture and sweet flavor. Don't even think
about peeling the semi-glossy skin -- it's thin, tasty, and full
of nutrition! Diva is parthenocarpic -- it needs no pollinator
to flower and fruit -- and is renowned for its big yields. We
recommend harvesting the fruit before it reaches maximum size.
the smaller cukes are especially succulent! Despite her name,
Diva is no temperamental star but a rough-and-ready garden
performer, tolerant of Scab, Powdery Mildew, Downy Mildew, and
Angular Leaf Spot. The vining plant reaches 5 to 6 feet tall
and 1 to 2 feet wide, with very prolific fruit over a good season.
Burpless cucumbers are known for their tasty, non-astringent flesh,
small seed cavity, and crisp, thin skin that never needs peeling.
They are premium cukes for eating fresh. Direct-sow seeds in a
sunny spot after all danger of frost is past or start indoors and
transplant when the first true leaf appears. Cucumbers can be
allowed to grow on the ground, but for longer, straighter fruit
and to save garden space, grow them in a cage or on a trellis,
allowing 1 foot between plants. Keep them well watered and keep
the fruits picked promptly. Pkt is 30 seeds.
Cool Breeze Hybrid Cucumber (Jung 02013)
An outstanding French Cornichon pickling cucumber.
Sets fruit without cross pollination, a term called
parthenocarpic, resulting in early yields and buckets
of fruit under just about any reasonable growing
condition. The dark green cukes are smooth with fine
white spines, at their best when harvested at 4 to 5
inches, and will be seedless unless grown near other
cucumbers. They make excellent pickles and have great
crunchy sweet flavor for eating fresh. Strong,
vigorous plants are very disease resistant. Can also
be grown in a greenhouse for a winter cucumber treat.
Diamant Hybrid Cucumber (Jung 02014)
A disease resistant pickler with great taste. This
early ripening cuke has crisp texture and fresh,
mild flavor that's a delight for both fresh eating
and pickling. The dark green 4 to 5 inch fruits are
nearly smooth with barely noticeable spines. Space
saving, compact plants are parthenocarpic, so they
don't require pollination to set fruit. Their
resistance to downy and powdery mildew, cucumber
mosaic virus and cucumber scab keeps them bearing
all summer. Yields are amazing.
Iznik Hybrid Cucumber (Jung 02019)
A gourmet mini-cuke from Germany. Thin-skinned,
smooth, crisp cucumbers are prime when harvested at
3 to 4 inches. Short-vined plants have small leaves
and, because they are parthenocarpic (do not require
pollination to set fruit), they are extremely high
yielding even under adverse conditions or without bee
activity. Grows well in containers, trellis gardens,
greenhouses and regular gardens. Great used fresh or
for pickles.
Amour Hybrid Cucumber (Jung s02013)
Recommended as a substitute for Cool Breeze Hybrid
Cucumber. A parthenocarpic variety producing extra
early yields of spiny, 4 to 5 inch dark green fruit
perfect for fresh use and pickling.
With my heated greenhouse tents I try to grow veggies year
round when there are no bees to pollinate the crops. That's
why I was very interested when Tom led me to the varieties
of parthenocarpic veggies. They also have zucchinis. They
are working on a yellow summer squash, but it's in field
test stage right now (soon to be released).
Perfect Pick Hybrid Zucchini (Jung 03561)
Just about the most perfect zucchini you can grow!
This superb summer squash has the unique feature of
being parthenocarpic, it doesn't require pollination
by insects to set fruit. As a result, it produces
high yields even when weather conditions aren't
favorable. It can even be grown under row covers or
in greenhouses successfully. The fruits are very high
quality with glossy dark green skin and nearly seedless
flesh that has excellent flavor. Optimum picking size
is when fruits are 6 to 8 inches long.
Caveli Hybrid Zucchini (Jung 03526)
The light green partner to our popular Perfect Pick
Hybrid! Caveli is also parthenocarpic and has all
the great qualities of Perfect Pick, but has light
green, tender skin and nearly seedless white flesh
with outstanding flavor. The leaves of the bushy
plants are curiously mottled with light green, making
them almost ornamental. If you like Perfect Pick,
you'll love Caveli.
Sure Thing Zucchini Hybrid (Burpee 54841A).
This Burpee zucchini bears fruit early in cool, cloudy
conditions even when there are no bees or male flowers
around. Its medium-size fruits are long and very tasty.
Strongest flavor, good with other vegetables. 48 days.
I agree with all the posters above about the cucumbers being one of the most difficult crop to grow. Like Amber said it is the most important thing to plant them at the right time. The soil has to be heavily amended to avoid nematodes and have to spray regularly for disease and bugs. Can also successfully grown in a container. Some varieties do better than others. I like to plant a variety small for just one salad, medium ones and bigger ones like the oriental varieties. Since they are all difficult to grow, go for the one that you like the taste.
Chinese cucumber
Suyo long
One more parthenocarpic cuke by Jung is the Sweet Success, I grew this one as well as the others in containers last season and it was fav right up there with Diva and Cool Breeze. You have to keep them well separated from pollinators though as cross-pollination will result in deformed shapes, cukes won't be uniform in size and shape at all.
Hey Amberroses, you know, I really don't know exactly why they got so weak and died. I did notice that after it got down into the 30's one night, that they started to look pretty pitiful. It is rare for that kind of weather to happen here, so I covered them with sheets.
Outside of that though, the Marketmoore really wouldn't even grow??!! Weird...
Hey Lou, thanks for so much information. After reading your stuff here and some of Tom's, I'm thinking about Diva and Sweet Success. I'm kind of bummed though that organic strains don't seem to do well down here. Hmm....?!
Anyway, thanks so much for the input, Everybody!
I have a raised bed and my cucumbers grow but, i only get 2 n by then the plants have died out.. It looks like white spots n like something is eating the leaves.. What can i use or do to prevent this from happening? I live in south fl.. Redlands area..
