acid core solder
I just realized that I used acid core solder on a copper repair.
Specifically, I repaired one elbow above the hot water heater in a family member's house.
Must this joint be redone? What's the downside if left alone?
Could I just wipe the joint thoroughly outside, and reasonably hope that the water in the pipe will wash away the excess acid inside?
I just read several caveats (on the web) not to use acid core, but instead use resin core with copper. Not that I'm disagreeing, just pointing out.
So I thought I had committed a plumbing sin - maybe not.
Here's one of those web sources:
In plumbing we normally do not use a core type solder.
Resin core solder is principally used for electrical and electronics because the resin flux does not promote corrosion on the connections.
Acid core solder is principally used in the sheet metal trade for doing very intricate work.
The flux in acid core solder is primarily the same flux as we use in plumbing but the preferred method in plumbing is to apply the flux directly to the joint with a flux brush then use solid solder. In this manner the flux has slightly more time to react with the metal and perform its cleaning process before the solder is applied.
Some plumbing codes are now moving away from the petroleum based acid fluxes entirely and opting for the water based flux.
Acid flux is actually very aggressive stuff and more forgiving of poor cleaning.
Rosin flux is always used in electrical work, and is very important n electronic work. Acid flux is so aggressive it can eat the thin layers of copper used to make printed circuit boards, and the salt residues it leaves behind are conductive if they get moist (and since they are hygroscopic they tend to stay moist).
The rosin fluxes have different levels of 'activation' that indicate how aggressive they are.
Some of the finest geometry printed boards use immersion gold plating (a few micro-inches thick) and can use the least aggressive fluxes.
The carrier for the flux can be petroleum based or water based (actually just not petroleum so it cleans up with water), but the actual active component remains the same.
The electronic industry has been moving to water cleanup and low activity fluxes for many years, particularly after 1,1,1-trichloroethane was pretty much banned as a board cleaner.
Just about everyone had a vapor phase degreaser, a tank that held hot vaporized 1,1,1. When a cool object (room temperature) was placed in the vapor it condensed on the object and dripped off cleaning the item.
Now glorified dishwashers are used.
By measuring the conductance of the wash water you can tell if the items have been cleaned of ionic contaminants. Really pure water is a very good insulator.

the toxicity of foxglove
i read in selectseeds catalog that foxglove are poisonous....i also read on the net it was only the flower that was.
how concerned should a parent of a 2.5 yr old an d 7 month old, and owner of dogs be?
and why doesn't is list them as poisonous and the seed packet bought from walmart, you'd think they'd make em print that on there?
Foxgloves are one of the memebers of the "Digitalis" family, part of a larger family of plants, from which a drug that can strengthen the heart beat is derived. Because of that some sellers will label their seeds while others do not find it necesary. As with anything that could, potentially, be poisonous it is the does, you would need to eat a lot of Foxgloves to begin to see the effects and it is the plants leaves, not the flowers or seeds, that contain the alkaloid that would become the drug.
I have to disagree with kimmsr. Foxglove is considered highly poisonous. According to what I have read, one leaf chewed and swallowed, could cause paralysis and/or heart stoppage. I would not grow it where a child could get to it. Do a Web search on foxglove. I agree with you that seed packets should have information about poisonous plants.
I couldn't agree more that some plants need warning labels, so many parents of young kids have no knowledge of the dangers of what's growing in their yard. You would never, ever want infants eating foxglove anf you should call poison control if they do. I don't know about dogs, their list of poisons is slightly different than ours.
Here's my list for my yard, ranging from mildly toxic to a stomach-pumping 911 call:
datura/Angel's trumpet
Potato vine/solanum
Japanese anemone
Calla lily
Night blooming jessamine
various lupines
Foxglove is a highly toxic plant, but the point is not to not plant things that are toxic. Tomato leaves are toxic, and so are green potatoes, and so are yews, which are commonly planted around foundations. The world cannot be child-proofed. The thing is to teach the child not to eat anything it can't positively identify. Dogs have to be controlled and not allowed to eat whatever they want.
There is no law that requires that a plant or seed be labeled as poisonous. Many of the most popular plants are extremely so.
Here is an excellent site about plant toxicity:
crankyoldman (love that name!!) has got it right. If they were to label ALL the plants that pose toxicity, most folks would be terrified and not plant anything, as far more plants are toxic to some degree than those that are not.......even very common ones, like the aforementioned tomato (and potato and rhubarb foliage and whole bunch more).
One does need to exercise some caution but they also need to exercise some common sense. Avoid planting things that produce toxic berries or fruit - these are far more appealing to small children (who automatically assume they are as edible as the berries and fruit mom gives 'em) than munching on a flower or leaf. One can start training kids at a very early age not to put things in their mouth that have not been approved by a parent. Animals are a bit easier as they tend to inately know better and seldom graze on toxic plants, but puppies and other small pets that tend to chew should be kept supervised until they outgrow this trait.
Scores and scores of gardeners for generations have grown potentially toxic plants with both kids and pets around with no harmful incidents whatsoever (myself included). Actual accidental poisonings by plants for both kids and pets are much lower than many would imagine, but if you have concerns, use caution in your plant selection. But avoiding all plants that have toxic properties will result in a very boring garden :-)
Here is a link that might be useful: UCDavis toxic plants listing
good points, i just didn't know whether if was poisonous to eat or touch and have it on your hands, i'm not worried about my kid eatn the plant though, and i've already started workn on trainn my dogs to not chew on plants, since they already chewed two small plants down this winter, grr.
Here is what the NIH says: [If the government says it then it must be true. JBTG]
Foxglove poisoning usually occurs from sucking the flowers or eating the seeds, stems, or leaves of the foxglove plant.
Poisoning may also result from taking excessive amounts of medicines made from foxglove, including digoxin, a common heart medication.
Poisonous Ingredient
* Deslanoside
* Digitoxin
* Digoxin
* Digitalis glycosides
Where Found
* Flowers, leaves, stems, and seeds of the foxglove plant
* Digitalis glycosides (heart medicine)
Possible symptoms include:
* Blurred vision
* Halos around objects (yellow, green, white)
* Rash or hives
* Vomiting, nausea, or diarrhea
* Stomach pain
* Loss of appetite
* Irregular or slow heartbeat
* Low blood pressure
* Weakness or drowsiness
* Confusion
* Fainting
* Lethargy
* Disorientation or hallucinations
* Headache
* Depression
Hallucinations, loss of appetite, and halos are usually only seen in people who have been poisoned over a long period of time.
I'm sorry, I just can't agree that parents shouldn't have access to information about plant toxicity when making purchases. I do agree that the world can't be childproofed, but you can't protect your kids if you don't know yourself and most people have very limited plant knowledge.
From the Gale Encyclopedia of Children's Health, 2006
There are more than 700 species of poisonous plants in the United States. Plants are second only to medicines in causing serious poisoning in children under age five. There is no way to tell by looking at a plant if it is poisonous. Some plants, such as the yew shrub, are almost entirely toxic: needles, bark, seeds, and berries. In other plants, only certain parts are poisonous. The bulb of the hyacinth and daffodil are toxic, but the flowers are not; while the flowers of the jasmine plant are the poisonous part. Moreover, some plants are confusing because portions of them are eaten as food while other parts are poisonous. For example, the fleshy stem (tuber) of the potato plant is nutritious; however, its roots, sprouts, and vines are poisonous. The leaves of tomatoes are poisonous, while the fruit is not. Rhubarb stalks are good to eat, but the leaves are poisonous. Apricots, cherries, peaches, and apples all produce healthful fruit, but their seeds contain a form of cyanide that can kill a child if chewed in sufficient quantities. One hundred milligrams (mg) of moist, crushed apricot seeds can produce 217 mg of cyanide.
About 10 million cases of poisoning occur in the United States each year. In 80 percent of the cases, the victim is a child under the age of five. About 50 children die each year from poisonings.
This is like the discussion on planting non native plant species. Should you or should you not plant those things that could, potentially, poison someone? Because a large number of the plants that we grow are potentially poisonous we would have a relatively bland garden if we did not include those that might, possibly, poison someone. How often has someone been poisoned by eating plants out of a garden? It is such a rare occurance that if it did happen you would hear about it.
You are mis-stating my contention, Kimmsr. I don't say don't grow them. I say label them so the consumer has the knowledge to make his or her own choices. As my list shows, I grow a number of toxic plants, including about 15 foxgloves.
You ask, "How often has someone been poisoned by eating plants out of a garden?" Did you even read what I posted from Gale? 10 million cases/year, 80% are kids, plants are the second leading cause. That is a lot of children, even if it is not necessarily a large number of fatalities.
Apple seeds contain cyanide. Following your thinking, apples should be labeled as poisonous.
Most plant "poisonings" consist of a bout of diarrhea and vomiting. The primary cause of poisoning death in children, according to the CDC, is from eating cosmetics or household products.
You have to take the responsibility to educate yourself about dangers to your child and not expect others to do the homework for you. That means consulting knowledgeable sources, not seed packets or hangtags at nurseries, ya know?
I am a former sales rep for a well known seed company that supplies many major chain stores including Walmart. I thought it was very funny that Walmart (in Canada) would not allow morning glories on thier seed racks as the seeds, if ingested can be hallucinogenic. However, they seemed to have no problem stocking digitalis (foxgloves) or Castor Bean which can kill you.
Have you ever tried to eat a foxglove flower? If a kid did put one in their mouth it wouldn't stay there long enough to do any damage. Foxgloves are extreamly nasty tasting (caustic). They are also beautiful and native to most of the coast of BC where I live.
I'm also of the belief that you should teach your children not to eat things they find outside the kitchen without asking first.
I am a field purchaser of wild mushrooms and my just turned 3 year old daughter can tell you the names of a dozen different mushrooms that grow in our back 40 and can show you where they grow and which ones you can eat. She also knows you NEVER eat wild mushrooms unless they are cooked and what can happen if you do.
Little kids are like sponges, it never ceases to amaze me the way they absorb information and retain it.(especially swear words!!)
I forgot to add...
Parents have limitless information about the potential hazards of any plant via the www, books, garden centre staff etc... All they have to do is look or ask. Just because it isn't printed on the lable doesn't mean it isn't out there. Perhaps people should research things they'd like to plant before making impulse purchases and expecting seed companies to babysit them.

Roy Robins: After Mandelatags: South Africa, Nelson Mandela, apartheid, Roy Robins, ANC
Roy Robins is a writer based in Cape Town.
CAPE TOWN, South Africa — Late on Wednesday night, March 27, former South African president Nelson Mandela was admitted to an undisclosed hospital for a recurring lung infection. This is the third time Mandela has been hospitalized in recent months. He spent a weekend in hospital in early March for what the government described as a "check-up," and most of December in hospital, where he was treated for a lung infection and had his gallstones removed. The last time Mandela was seen in public was almost three years ago, at the closing ceremony of the 2010 World Cup, in Johannesburg. But that doesn't mean that he's not still everywhere.
Take his "appearance" at the kickoff this January of the 29th African Cup of Nations, an intercontinental soccer tournament held every two years. The elaborate opening ceremony, celebrating African culture, was a feast of entertainment, music, and dancing; at one point, an enormous Mandela puppet took to the stage. Dressed in the former president's trademark loose, patterned shirt, the puppet swaggered, tottered, jilted, and jived. The audience applauded, for the puppet was instantly identifiable, instantly empathic, instantly adored. Everything else on the stage -- and there was much else, including hundreds of dancers in colorful traditional dress -- could well have been invisible. Yet there was something perfectly ironic about the puppet: in its enormousness and vitality, it was somehow a better stand-in than Mandela himself, whose age and condition no longer allows him to take the stage.
The ailing former president has been squarely on South Africa's mind the last few months. At 94, he is frail and fading fast. Housebound and bedridden in his Johannesburg estate, he is rumored to be senile; some claim he no longer speaks at all. One especially devastating newspaper report, quoting his former wife, said that his "sparkle was fading."
Each time Mandela is admitted to hospital, a wall of silence goes up between Mandela's spokespeople and the ruling African National Congress (ANC) government, on the one side, and local and international media, on the other. The official ANC line is always the same: Mandela is "in good health," he is "stable," his medical examinations are "routine" -- nothing to see here, folks, move along. The unofficial line is decidedly different and, by all reasonable accounts, much closer to the truth....

Current terahertz imagers rely on reflector systems for the beam quality and imaging speed because the cross-range span that the system can cover is limited by the beam aberrations when the antenna scans. We present the design of a Bifocal reflector system that can rapidly scan a terahertz beam for standoff imaging applications while increasing the field of view of previous designs up to 50%. The design is based in a confocal Gregorian system where the nominal reflector surfaces are substituted by shaped surfaces to reduce the beam aberrations, while not increasing the manufacture cost of the reflector antenna. We also provide a set of useful design formulas for the design of this kind of reflector systems. The beam patterns obtained by the proposed designs are numerically calculated with the commercial software GRASP and compared with those obtained with previous approaches to the same problem, showing the better performance of the proposed solution.

I bought these for my husband for his birthday. He wore them for the first time and they were scratched by a brush with the back hatch glass of my SUV. If these things can stand up to a .22 cal round as the manufacturer claims, I find it surprizing that a single brush with a car hatch while they are sitting on your head can scratch them.
Not the greatest sunglasses due to the fit. Suppose to fit med to large face but the frames squash your temples and are uncomfortable. Sorry but this product doesnt come up to Overstock's normal great quality and pricing.
I bought these for using while bicycling. They are pretty good. You can see great out of them and they stay on. My only complaint is when you stop riding they immediately fog up. Do understand I am riding in hot, humid, Florida so that may have something to do with it. I have driven my car with them on and they are great for that.
I was browsing Overstock and came across these sunglasses. Since they were only $****, I ordered a pair of the BTB 520 sunglasses. These are by far my favorite pair of sunglasses I have ever bought. They fit great, the style is awesome, and they are very durable. I am rough on glasses, these feel solid and I can tell they they will last a long time. I have had these for over a month and they still look brand new. I had such luck with the 520 style so I ordered the 210 style. Same results, they are great and I have no complaints. I will never buy Oakley's again, which are the glasses I have always bought in the past. I would recommend these glasses to anyone looking for great quality for an exceptional price.

And also.... biggest posers you will ever encounter!

Chat Purnima Menon tells SHILPA SEBASTIAN R. she did not take to Kathakali right away. The danseuse says she took years to understand the lyrics and the beauty behind this age-old classical art form
Kathakali was such a male-dominated dance form that even the female characters were enacted by men. Things, however, have changed over the last few years. It has seen some women, who have braved all odds – vigorous training, long hours of make up, heavy costume and head gear, among other things to carve a niche for themselves in this art form.
One such artiste is Purnima Menon. And that is not all. She has struck a balance between her career as an officer at the CSS Corp Pvt. Ltd. and a Kathakali performer.
"I dreaded it when I was initiated into this form at the age of seven by my father, whose exposure to towards the classical arts of Kerala was immense. As we stayed close to the International Centre For Kathakali in New Delhi, my training began, despite my negative attitude towards it. Today, I am so grateful to my father for helping me discover the beauty of Kathakali, which has all the elements of dance and theatre in it," beams Purnima.
"The training is rigorous. It goes on and on for hours. Being more interested in games as a child, I would find myself making lame excuses to miss my classes," recalls the dancer, who adds: "It's also a myth that only men are into it. Chavara Paru Kutty was one of the earliest women to enter this art form and many have followed. Since I was too young to understand the art form, I just wanted to be done with my practise and run off to play. In fact, I even showed my disapproval by discontinuing my training during my teens," says Purnima.

Tall, Thin, Showy Grass (wheat-like gold stalks)
bluepoppyMay 12, 2007
I'm trying to identify a grass I saw in Zone5. Any ideas?
Its TALL, THIN, green, straight-up stalks, about 6' high.
The stalks are similiar in look to pampas grass (but more like a golden wheat color).
It looks non-invasive, thin, very tidy and neat. Very showy.
You haven't given us much to go on.
Is it 6' tall to the plumes?
Is the clump of grass thin, or the blades of the grass?
When you say 'stalks' do you mean seedheads/flowers/plumes?
Maybe it's Calamagrostis x acutiflora 'Karl Foerster.'

Sleeping buddies once again
100 will camp out downtown in aid of homelessness
It was a sultry late-summer evening when I spotted her standing across the crowded ballroom.
Screwing up my courage, my heart hammering in my chest like a heavy- metal drummer, my hands clammy with sweat, I staggered nervously towards her.
Within moments, I was next to her and, looking deep into her eyes, blurted out a question I'd been dying to ask since the moment I'd walked into the ornate room on the seventh floor of the Fort Garry Hotel.
"Would you like to sleep with me?" I croaked, before politely adding: "Again?"
There was a delicate pause as she pondered how to respond to this bold proposition. After an eternity, she looked at me, a gentle smile betraying a mix of amusement and pity.
"Yes, of course!" city councillor Jenny Gerbasi chirped with glee. "If it's for a good cause."
And on Thursday, Sept. 26, when the Fort Rouge councillor and I bunk down under the stars in a small courtyard near the corner of Portage and Main for the second straight year, it will be for a great cause.
It's going to be an intimate evening -- just Jenny and myself and about 98 other community and business leaders and media personalities hunkering down in our sleeping bags on small patches of grass in front of 201 Portage Ave.
For the record, it's all part of the Downtown Winnipeg Biz's third annual CEO Sleepout, which aims to raise $150,000 to help get homeless Winnipeggers off the streets and into jobs and decent housing.
The money we raise -- and online pledges have so far topped $85,000 -- will go to the BIZ's Change for the Better campaign, which supports employment programs for the homeless, such as Siloam Mission's Mission Off the Streets Team.
As Jenny noted during an event last week to unveil this year's 100 participants -- double the roughly 50 CEOs who slept out last year -- it's not about pretending to be homeless for a night.
It's about shining a spotlight on, and raising some cash for, a crucial issue by giving some high-profile Winnipeggers a small taste of what the city's most vulnerable citizens experience on a daily basis.
"Some people see it as an 'Us vs. Them' issue, but homelessness is something that could happen to anyone and it's something we as a community have an obligation to deal with," she said. "It's about doing what we can do, and getting a bunch of high-profile people to focus on the issue. And that's a good thing."
One of those high-profile people is Brian Scharfstein, the community-minded president of Canadian Footwear and chairman of the Winnipeg Chamber of Commerce.
This will be the third year Scharfstein has joined the sleepout, and while he describes it as "the greatest opportunity to give back to our city," he acknowledges camping in a concrete courtyard is "a painful experience."
"You never really relax, you never get comfortable, and it takes you days to recover. I would not want to have that feeling every night," he said.
Stefano Grande, executive director of the Downtown BIZ, told this year's bumper crop of sleepout CEOs ending homelessness is a part of his organization's mandate.
"We believe we need to be on the front lines every day helping people," he said.
That's why the BIZ has already hired one outreach worker and is in the process of hiring another. Eventually, it hopes to have as many as eight patrolling downtown streets.
"They'll be out on the street every day bumping into people saying, 'What can we do to help you?' and making connections with housing and employment and addiction counselling, doctors and social workers," Grande said.
He believes there's a growing realization the business community has to be part of the solution. "We're in an era where the corporate community doesn't operate in a vacuum," he said. "There's a social consciousness expected."
Which reminds me: If I'm going to sleep out on the cold, hard streets again, it would make me feel warm and fuzzy all over if you coughed up a little cash for the cause.
So, please, drop whatever you are doing -- even if it's a hot cup of coffee -- visit www.changeforthebetter.org and click the "Donate Now" button under my photo. Or Jenny's.
Because, like the song says, if, on some enchanted evening, you should see a stranger across a crowded room, never let them go... without first giving them a big fat donation.

When do I put down milky spore?
We have japanese beetles, heard milky spore is a great natural solution, better than the beetle bags. Is it possible to put it down in late summer to kill the larvae, or only in spring? Also, will I make any difference if I just spray/shake it in my area, or will it only work if the entire neighborhood does it? Where do you get it?
Milky spore should be applied in the late summer or fall. Success is soil type and pH dependant, and may take 2 to 5 years before you see a substantial change in the grub population (the average is 3 years). In the meantime, put away your traps, which attract more beetles into your yard.
Beetle damage may not be indicitive of the grub problem you have. If you have more than your fair share of plants that JB love, or you are luring them into your yard, you will have all sorts of damage from the adults but may not have a grub infestation. Do a grub scout of a sunny portion of your lawn to determine the population.
If your JB issue is from neighboring grub infestations, your application of milky spore is a waste of time and money.

Soccer as Life
For lovers of the beautiful game
Day 2 Roundup: Spain is stunned
Last week I went to see Portugal play Ireland at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey. Throughout the game, the stadium kept running an announcement for a contest they were having where you could win 10 million dollars or something like that if you could correctly pick a certain number of World Cup games with their […] [Read More]
Day 1 Roundup: Brazil kicks off with a win
It was ugly and they didn't exactly look like a tournament favorite, but Brazil got the three points they needed to kick off the 2014 World Cup. In front of a sold-out crowd in Sao Paulo, Brazil defeated Croatia behind a brace from Neymar and a late goal from Oscar. The game started off ominously […] [Read More]
World Cup Preview: Group C
In this post we'll take a look at group C: Colombia, Greece, The Elephants of Ivory Coast, and Japan. Unlike the other groups previewed so far, there is no clear-cut favorite for this group. Both Colombia and Ivory Coast have problems at the back, so there's a chance they'll both look to control games and […] [Read More]
World Cup Preview: Group B
Here we'll take a look at Group B, which contains defending champions Spain, perennial power the Netherlands, dark-horse team Chile, and the Socceroos of Australia. Winning the group is VERY important Winning this group is something that is going to be even more important than normal, as the 2nd place team from this group […] [Read More]
David Villa signs for NYCFC
Though still almost a year away from playing their first competitive game, NYCFC made a splash this week when they announced the signing of Spanish striker David Villa. Villa, who will be at the World Cup this month in Brazil, is coming off a season with Atletico Madrid that saw them crowned La Liga champions […] [Read More]
World Cup Preview: Group A
The 2014 World Cup kicks off June 12 in Sao Paulo. Here we'll take a look at the nations in Group A: Brazil, Cameroon, Croatia, and Mexico. The top of the group looks set Let's be honest, Brazil not winning the group would be a big upset. This isn't the easiest group, but Brazil shouldn't have […] [Read More]
Ciro Immobile to sign for Dortmund
Borussia Dortmund's search to find a replacement for Robert Lewandowski has seemingly come to an end as it appears they've reached an agreement with Torino and Italy striker Ciro Immobile. Following Italy's 0-0 draw with Ireland, he told reporters "It is done, I told you some time ago. Now I'm just waiting to put my […] [Read More]
In praise of Angel Di Maria
When Real Madrid bought Gareth Bale in August, Angel Di Maria seemed like the most obvious casualty. There was never a chance of the world's most expensive player coming off the bench. Di Maria had been a fine player for Madrid over the past few seasons, and it didn't seem realistic to ask a player of […] [Read More]

On cue, the anti-Obama is behaving very unstimuluslike.
The annual rhetorical outburst that is fast becoming customary during the sweltering month of August has certainly served as the impetus for more than a few moments of reflection. Perhaps the highlight this year was conservative commentator Glenn Beck's dusting off of the spot where Dr. Martin Luther King made his classic "I have a Dream Speech" to make a national religious call to arms.
Two centuries ago, wood served as our energy fuel for the American frontier, providing home heat and powering commercial furnaces and eventually steam engines.
One of the most famous calvary exploits of the Civil War was the Union calvary raid through Mississippi by Col. B.H.Grierson in 1863. The raid has been the subject of several books and even a John Wayne movie, "The Horse Soldiers."
Sometimes the answer comes before the question is fully formed. Just ask Wil Colom. Eight years ago, the lawyer/businessman/entrepreneur happened to be standing on the Serengeti Plain in northern Tanzania in the presence of a Maasai warrior when he heard music.
Gmail is Google's free e-mail service. Through www.gmail.com, you can create an e-mail account that you can check on virtually any computer connected to the Internet. It's a replacement for Outlook or Apple Mail and is similar to Hotmail and Yahoo Mail.
I learned back in college that William Faulkner's wife made a remark to him about the "light in August," giving him the name for one of his novels. (If you still can't guess which one, Google it.)
A birthday is a time for reflection. I hope you will indulge me. Growing up in Columbus, my favorite pastime as a kid was cruising all over town on a bicycle. Across the river was off limits, so naturally, that's where we went. In those days all the honky tonks and beer joints were over there. We were more interested in the curb markets that sold firecrackers. I still fancy myself an explorer.
What do Starkville and Oxford have in common? Starkville today reminds me much of Oxford, circa 1995. If you take offense at the suggestion that Starkville is 15 years behind Oxford, swallow your Bulldog pride and take a trip up there.
Jerry Rice had some poignant things to say the other day. As he was being inducted into pro football's hall of fame, Rice admitted he has been consumed with fear throughout his football career.
Unemployment in the Golden Triangle now ranges anywhere from 10.7 percent (Oktibbeha County) to 22 percent (Noxubee County). In light of these staggering numbers, I think now may be a good time to review a few methods of finding both work (for the unemployed) and workers (for employers).
I have read with considerable interest the many opinion pieces and articles in the paper pertaining to personal freedom infringement by the current and past actions of the Board of Aldermen.
Do you feel like you're being watched? If you were strolling down the Riverwalk in the evening hours over the past three weeks, you probably were.
My mother and I spent our first night in Mississippi, in May 2008, at Shadowlawn, the antebellum home and bed and breakfast on College Street. The only Mississippians I knew were Shadowlawn's owners, Burnette and Nono Avakian. When we asked about the couple, we learned they'd met at an antiques auction.
Monday afternoon I felt like Harry Dean Stanton in the movie "Paris, Texas."
Someone contacted me a few weeks ago with concerns that an employee's web browser history listed several websites that were not work related.
Earlier this year I taught a beginner-level class on social media through MUW's Department of Continuing Education. Though he has been involved in the development of modern computers and was teaching a computer history class through the same program, Claude Simpson enrolled in my class for an update on Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube.
Over the past few weeks, we've been exploring the various ways the Internet has changed our daily lives.

delightful sampling
This strong tome provides readers with a delightful sampling of some of the winning shorts and novellas over the last thirty years. The collection is balanced as four entries represent the 1970s; six from the 1980s; five from the 1990s; and three from the 2000s. The contributors are a who¿s who of the two genres (not surprising since this prestigious award is selected by a vote of Locus magazine readers) to include greats like Harlan Ellison, George R.R. Martin, Neil Gaiman, Gene Wolfe and Ursula K. Le Guin, etc. Each selection is well written, but some of the tales, surprisingly especially from the 1990s, feel dated; incredibly, the seventies and eighties hold up quite well and besides a bit of nostalgia remain terrific entries. Readers, especially those of the magazine, will appreciate the eighteen selections that make up ¿thirty years of the best in science fiction and fantasy¿.---- Harriet KlausnerWas this review helpful?

Cool Weather Blues
rose_is_a_rose(z4 SW Ont)May 16, 2005
Oh my.... when it is going to warm up?? *sigh* At this rate we won't be able to plant annuals until June! I usually plant May 24 weekend.
I have some perennials waiting at the back door to go to their new homes in the garden.... I'm wondering if they would be alright to plant in these cooler temps? or should I just put on my patiences hat?? The colombines are about to bloom in their pots and the coral bells are growing like crazy... I guess they think they are in a green house.

Andrew Smalley House on Hall's Creek Road near Arago, Coos County, Oregon.
Who Do You Think You Are? – Sean Hayes

is the house still standing? it's an awesome house.
I drove down Hall's Creek Road and the house didn't survive. The area was logged when my Grandmother inherited the property back in the 1940's. I was surprised that it wasn't there.

"Food Should Taste Good's Olive flavored tortilla chips are so good! Made with black, green and Kalamata olives, garlic and sea salt, these crunchy chips are packed with flavor! These chips are great on their own, but would also be tasty with cheese, salsa or a Caprese salad! The best part about these chips is that they're lower in fat than regular potato chips. Why wouldn't you eat these chips?"
"All chips should taste as good as these All Natural olive flavored chips! These are some of the most delicious tortilla chips out there. I loved the olive chips because, while they didn't taste like black olives, they did taste like they were coated with a high quality olive oil. They had a terrific satisfying crunch and had just the right amount of saltiness. The combination of olive oil flavor and that touch of salt is an addicting one, as I plowed these chips like no one's business."
"If you're someone who likes your sweet and savory all in one bite, you'll love these chocolate flavored chips made by Food Should Taste Good. With cocoa undertones and a touch of salt, these crunchy chips are a surprise for your senses! These chocolaty chips are delightful!"
"I absolutely love these chips! The combination of chocolate and a tortilla chip may sounds strange, but the sweet chocolate melds beautifully with the salty chip. Plus, the crunch of the chip adds a satisfying texture not normally associated with chocolate. With each bite, initially you get the full chip flavor, followed by a pleasant chocolate after taste. With this chip, the folks at Food Should Taste Good combined my two favorite afternoon snacks into one super delicious package. If you can handle some experimentation with your chip selection, then this flavor is for you."
"A chocolate-flavored chip may seem like a strange food of the future, but these tortilla chips are one of Food Should Taste Good's extensive flavor line-up that includes olive, jalapeno and lime. These chips have a rich cocoa flavor that intensifies with each chew. The semi-sweet chocolate makes a great companion to the natural corn flavor. They're a fabulous option for people who want a chocolate fix in an all-natural snack. You can even crumble these chips up over ice cream for a super-neat treat!"
"I can't seem to stop eating the hearty, crunchy and flavorful All Natural Chips The Works!... I enjoyed them so much I had to hide the back from myself. I found them to go well with hummus, ranch or even with nothing! I'd definitely like to try more, though I'm not sure my figure would agree. The all natural and organic grains make it more appealing to buy though. Basically all the flavors are amazing, I also enjoyed the cheddar, blue corn and sweet potato, so delicious."

Hawaii Orange
I want one, I want one(clicking my heels three times). Does anyone know where I can buy one?
This "Hawaii Orange" plumeria is the cultivar called
"Paul Weissich" and offers a strong, sweet, spicy fragrance.
Growth habit is horizontally branched or low and spreading instead of vertical. There is another "orange" in Hawaii
called "Ka Lei Nani" which looks very similar except the buds have no red blush or pinkish hue, scent is unsweet with no spiceness and its growth habit is quite vertical.
Aloha (from James88
Here's a link to one that is being offered on ebay.
I have heard from several people that Kalenani/Kaulanani and University Orange are the same plant. They look the same to me, does anyone have both plants that can chime in. Cheryl Oshiro has some great stuff she sells University Orange, Wildfire, K2, K3, etc. Cheryl is a great direct source to buy from :)
