I added a page for user sizes on the spreadsheet, and took the liberty of moving it to the first position so everyone would see it when they went. It might make it a little easier to have everyone's sizes all in one place. It would be possible to add lines for specific wants, but I haven't done that as yet.post #53 of 25142/29/12 at 6:25pm

A buyer on AAAC just fell through after a few weeks of leading me on, so this BB worsted wool, 39 R, suit is available for trade or sale. Asking $90/best offer for sale, but I'd love to trade it for something similar in a 38/40 S (actually, this fits me quite well, but the jacket is just too long).
p to p: 21 1/2
waist: 20 3/4
Sleeve: 24
Length: 31

Ok I need a lot of this stuff gone...if you're interested in it please PM me and we can work out a trade or a sale or whatever...I'm just offering everything here before Ebay. My trade sizes are in my signature but as long as I can sell it then it doesn't have to fit me...just trying to offer up some things people might can wear. More pics and measurements available upon request.
Sport Coats:
Oxxford blazer/dinner jacket 44L. Single vented, super 100's:
Oxxford brown pin-stripe SC(maybe an orphan). Single-vented, partially lined, 100% worsted wool. No tagged size but fits about like a 42-44R.
Zegna for Neiman Marcus goldish glen-plaid, 3-roll-2 SC. Double vented, 55% silk 45% wool blend. Tagged 54EU but measures/fits about a 42R.
Isaia mainline pin-stripe, 3-roll-2 SC(again, maybe orphan but it will definitely work as a SC). Double vented, super 120's, fully lined. Tagged EU54L and fits about 42-44L.
Armani Le Collezioni double-breasted, olive-colored SC. Unvented, peak lapels, fully-lined and half-canvassed. Tagged 44R.
Oxxford brown mini-houndstooth SC. Unvented, fully-lined and half-canvassed. Bespoke piece but it fits/sized about 44-46XL. Rewoven spot at top of left sleeve, not very big.
Canali blue check-patterned SC. Not sure what to call the pattern really. Double-vented, fully-lined and half-canvassed. Tagged EU56R.
H. Freeman and Sons 100% Cashmere houndstooth SC. Single vented, fully-lined. No tagged size but fits about 42-44R.
Brooks Brothers Golden Fleece suit. Gray nailhead pattern, single-vent, half-lined, half-canvassed 3-roll-2. Right lapel seems to have lost its "shape" I guess? Not sure how to explain it but I assume it's an easy-ish fix? It just rolls all the way down to the 2nd button. Can this be fixed? Pants are about 38x32.
2 pairs of Zanella double-pleats. Both brown. Left pair: 38x30. Right pair: 40x30.
Vintage Filson pants. Flat-front, 34x30 and in great shape
Bill's Khaki's. Flat front, 34x31. M2 version.
Shirts and jackets -
not much around here in regards to nice shirts...but:
from left to right:
Pendleton shirt size Large
Pendleton jacket. Not sure how to explain it...suede patch elbows, 4 pockets on the front and super warm. Size Large.
Burberry shirt size 16.5/35
Woolrich jacket. Size Small...4 pockets on the front and super, super thick.
Again, please feel free to PM me about ANYTHING posted here and I'm sorry for the deluge of pictures!

For instance, e se ifig'is allowed to proceed for approximately ten to twentyone days (as compared to twenty-eight days normally), after which time furthersetting is preve'nted.' 5 f Arresting of the cure "and prevention of fur ther'setting is produced by prompt drying of the thus partially set cementitious article, The grgr i g may be effected at atem ratur'e'above e 5 Mill; gf a ge u, maintained "iorafiay or. 1 so, eac sWeirfg'spaced from other. sheets or other large'sur'face during the drying operation. In a typical procedure, the sheets madefas' de- 1 .1 scribed that'arle. to be dried are: arranged with metal rods or asbestos strip separators between adjacent sheets. The assembly is then subjected to'a temperature of abou' 30.0%; for eighteen hours. This procedure pr uces ry'o'r-f substantially dry sheets, as the terms are used 35 herein. f f "The sheets so made are preferably treated to prevent resumption of the setting operation on ex posure to the atmosphere. Thus, there may be impregnated a waterproofing ,agentj oijith kind 4( described above. 1 i For this impregnation, the'spaced sheets, pref 1- erably arranged vertically and inthejasSembb with rod or strip separatorsdescribed above, are immersed in a bath of the impregnating material in liquid form. Using the dryingpils l preifer to immerse the sheets in the. oil at- 'anele'vateftemperature, say, atabout200 to 300 F, For best results, the impregnation is made in". complete. For instance; I keep the sheets immersed in the impregnating bath luntil the outer portions only of each sheet are "mipregnated;
On the other hand, the amountof impregnating material introduced should be adequate to prevent entrance: of moisture into the finished sheet. 5
I find these conditions to be met when there is left, directlyafter the immersion of the sheet in the impregnating'jjmateriah an unimpregnated core corresponding to about one-fourth to one half of the total thickness'of the sheet. "With the impregnating 'material of 'the consistency of linseed oil at 240 F., an immersion time of about three minutes is adequate i'or sheets of one-half inch thickness.-
' h The impregnated sheets are next subjected to treatment to harden the-impregnated material. Iffasphaltic or like materials have been used, they are hardened-by cooling thesheet to atmospheric temperature, after evaporation of any volatile extenders'or solvents thatiii'ay have beenused to promote fluidity for impregnation. When drying oils have been used, they are hardened by baking-the impregnated sheets'in contact with air. Thus, sheets impregnated with drying oils may be baked at about 300 w 475i-F'.,for.se'veral hours 7'5- to half a day, to cause oxidation and hardening of the oil.
Finally, the sheets are cooled to atmospheric temperature.
They may then be polished, as by sanding the surface that is to constitute the face of the sheet or panel during use. They may be sawed or trimmed to desired length and breadth.
Lacquers may be used to finish the sheets, as, for instance, conventional lacquers including, as the hinder or base, a polymerized resinous vinyl compound, pyroxylin, glycerine phthlate, and/or ,a resinous phenoialdehyde compound.
1.Special advantages have been found in the incomplete impregnation described above. Incompletely impregnated sheets, when later maintained at a temperature above the liquefying point of the impregnating material, as, for example, during the baking operation described or du'ring subsequent use, undergo appreciable flowingjof the impregnating material from the outer portions ofthe sheet towards the inner unimpregna'ted portion. There is thus avoided exudation of the impregnating material on, the face of the sheet. Furthermore, the proportion of impregnating material is inadequate to fill an of the void spaces .betweenthe particles of fibro ce'r'nent composition. v The result is avoidance' of any continuous smooth film of impregnating material on the fact of the sheet and, conversely, sufiicient porosity at the face to permit theproper footing or adherence of a lacquer applied as a finishing material over the sheet.
' As a result of the process described, there is produced a sheet that, although desirably strong for structural purposes, is much more readily sawed cut, or drilled than comparable asbestos and cement products in which the cement is fully set. Furthermore, there is less 'dangr of cracking such sheets during nailing with ismallnails' or working with usual tools. Although the incompletely cured'asbestos and cement sheet is relatively weak 'and brittle before impregnation, the impregnation and baking areaccompanied by a noticeable increase in the strength of the sheet. The sheet becomes tough, while remaining more or less flexible.

Like a good Jewish boy, Brad Ausmus said to his Bubbie, "Bubbie, I love sulfites, nitrates and pig a**holes, but every time I see a Nathan's, I get the runs. Bubbie, do you have a remedy?" His Bubbie lowered her knitting and said, "You need to get a goddamn decent closer!" And so it was done. Unfortunately, due to being wracked with guilt (or possibly due to a rather hard knock on the head), Ausmus couldn't pull the trigger and said Nathan will remain the closer. Oh. WHAT?! The Rangers traded Joakim Soria to the Tigers because Joe Nathan is making Detroit look even lousier. I can't imagine Soria remains the set-up man for very long, since Nathan owns a 5.89 ERA and has looked completely lost for the better part of the season. For now, I'd hold both of them. Over in Texas, I have a rooting interest in Neal Cotts getting saves, because I own him and not Neftali Feliz. If I had my druthers, and knew what the hell druthers were — hmm, maybe then I do have druthers — I would grab Neftali first. Anyway, here's what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:Please, blog, may I have some more?

Something many of you don't realize, but one of the first people to talk to a player that was just traded is his new team's tailor. The Yankees tailor got on the phone with Chase Headley to find out what size jersey he wears, and Headley looked down, beaming to be out of Petco, and said, "Giuseppe, you might want to take out my inseam too." I wonder if the flowers smelled a little better as Headley stepped into Yankee Stadium for the first time. Sure, in contrast to his hour long ride through the Bronx, getting lost in Hunts Point, anything would smell better, but it can't be worse, can it? His career in away games prorated over a 162 game season is: 79/19/79/.286/14. Doode's David Wright! Well, almost. Which is sad for Headley and Wright. More sad for Wright. What a guy does in only half a season can be anywhere from bupkis to I-want-to-bump-grind-and-kiss. Will Headley suddenly be mixed league worthy? Yeah, for at least a flyer, if nothing else. Anyway, here's what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Damn, after reading that title, now I want to eat pasta. Has anyone ever watched The Godfather and not wanted to eat Italian right after? It's an American rite of passage. Once you're old enough to crave Italian food after The Godfather, then you're an adult. That should be the only test to vote or get into the military. "Listen, maggot, you want to go fight for your country? Then sit down and watch this three-hour movie and tell me what you want to eat afterwards. If you want a burger, fries and extra ketchup, you're a baby. Go home." Adam Duvall homered last night off Clifford Lee, and Duvall had 26 homers in Triple-A this year in 310 ABs. Of course, they play in the PCL, a league that pumps their baseballs with helium. He will only fill-in while Brandon Belt is on the concussion DL, but that could be anywhere from a week to a month. In NL-Only leagues, I'd definitely grab him, and even look at him in deeper mixed leagues, if you're desperate. Anyway, here's what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Odrisamer Despaigne almost threw a no-hitter yesterday (7 2/3 IP, 1 ER, 5 baserunners, 5 Ks) in his Padres camo fatigues, which had Fidel completely uncertain how to react. "I love to wear camo too, but now he's doing it for the American Baseball Organization and representing their military? I am torn like Natalie Imbruglia." Luckily, Fidel had someone who burped too loud to assassinate to take his mind off things. Odrisamer Despaigne, or Otis Spunkmeyer as I always want to call him, now has a 1.31 ERA on the year (34 1/3 IP) and a laughable K-rate (4.46). Speaking of communists, that's even laughable for Correia. Maybe the Mets couldn't see Spunkmeyer's pitches because the Padres were also using their trademark camo-painted baseball? Oh, wait, this is the Mets we're yakking up. How silly of me. Spunkmeyer is definitely worth riding when in home starts, and even favorable road matchups while throwing well, but I wouldn't trust him long-term. Anyway, here's what else I saw this weekend in fantasy baseball:Please, blog, may I have some more?
The Save Vulture is no ordinary animal. Or Jordanian animal, as my autocorrect wanted me to write. The Save Vulture doesn't need much sunlight. The Save Vulture doesn't need water in its purest form; it can distill water from cola, in a process called sodasynthesis. The Save Vulture is strictly a meat eater. It's even been known to remove vegetables that are in the proximity of meat it plans on devouring. The one thing it considers a vegetable is a potato and that's in chip form, which it consumes daily. The Save Vulture is not a social animal, but it does have close ties to its mother. Sometimes staying in the nest for 35 to 40 years. Once it leaves the nest, it usually latches onto a partner that nurtures it like a mother would. The Save Vulture doesn't work much, except six months a year when it's scrolling through a fantasy waiver wire for potential closers. The Save Vulture's most active time is the last two weeks of July when closers could change teams, thus making a new reliever a closer. The Save Vulture preys on the weakness of others who lose their closer. This year, one of the most likely targets for The Save Vulture is Ken Giles with Jonathan Papelbon likely being traded. The Save Vulture is also flying over Huston Street, waiting to swoop in on Joaquin Benoit's carcass. Do you think The Save Vulture isn't looking at Neftali Feliz if Joakim Soria is traded? You must be Joakim. Some desperate Save Vultures are talking about Koji Uehara being traded and Edward Mujica taking over. Not to be confused with Huston Street, but Chad Qualls on a Houston St. could go to a contender and Jesse Crain or Tony Sipp or Josh Fields or Jose Veras or Craig Biggio in a bad wig would step in. Could LaTroy Hawkins get moved? You bet your white Blackmon! In that case, Adam Ottavino or Rex Brothers would step in. The Save Vulture is even monitoring Matt Lindstrom's rehab, knowing if he's healthy in the next few weeks, he could take over again. The Save Vulture doesn't bathe itself, unless you count spilled soda, but it is the most diligent about stealing closers this time of year, I suggest you do the same. Anyway, here's some more players to Buy or Sell this week in fantasy baseball:Please, blog, may I have some more?
So it's not really the 2nd half mark in the fantasy baseball season, but it's the All-Star Break so what else are we going to talk about? Hell's Kitchen? Is it even believable that these people would one day be in charge of a kitchen? There's Real World castmates who seem like they have their shizz together better than these schmohawks. I like the one guy who burps a lot. He seems ready to run a kitchen! MasterChef, though, that show is the Sistine Chapel of reality shows. Okay, as with all of the other 2014 fantasy baseball rankings, take this list with a grain of salt. If you need a 2nd baseman, but an outfielder is above him that doesn't mean you can't trade the outfielder for the 2nd baseman. Also, things change in fantasy baseball. Daily. I could put Miggy number three on the top 100 list for the second half of 2014 and he could get in a fight with a bartender (not Tom Wilhelmsen) tomorrow, then he wouldn't be number one. See how that works. This list is a road map for where I think guys are valued. It's not the Holy Grail in the Church of Grey, that would be my mustache. This list is NOT (caps for emphasis, not aesthetics) where I see guys ending up if you were to take their first half and combine it with the 2nd half of their season. This is simply a list of the top hundred fantasy baseball players if you were to pick them up today. So while Carlos Santana did not have the greatest first half, he will appear on this list because I still believe. The projections are not their combined 1st half and 2nd half numbers; these are their projections for the 2nd half of 2014. I also liberally used our rest of the season Fantasy Baseball Player Rater. That's right, we have a Player Rater that tells you what guys will do. Welcome to the future! Anyway, here's the top 100 for fantasy baseball for the 2nd half of 2014:Please, blog, may I have some more?
As soon as you're finished with this post, I want you to close your laptop, step outside and look at a bird in flight. Pick up a flower, breathe in its fragrance, sneeze from your allergies, wave to a neighbor and close your robe because you're not just waving with your hand. How does that feel? Exhilarating? Then your dedication sucks. It should be a total bore. You should be more interested in whether or not I'm going to have a top 100 for the 2nd half of fantasy baseball tomorrow than what your significant other has been doing for the last three and a half months. Luckily, I will have a top 100 tomorrow, guys and four girl readers. Clay Buchholz didn't make the top 100, but with a game like yesterday — 9 IP, 0 ER, 3 baserunners, 12 Ks — he could be better than some guys that are on there. I'll go over this in detail tomorrow, but in only two and a half months, anything can happen. Even something good with Buchholz because there is upside, right? Check. Downside? Check? Waitress? Check please. Anyway, here's what else I saw this weekend in fantasy baseball:
PSYCH! Before we get into the post, I just wanted to say our TV on the Radio host, Nick, wants to cover some live fantasy football drafts in the following cities: Dallas, New Orleans, Atlanta, Charlotte, Cincy and Detroit. We're currently airing our show on cable in 22 million homes in the New York area, so if you want to make an ass of yourself on a bigger scale than you can imagine, now's your chance! Leave your email address in the comments or over at our TV/Radio side of things, and Nick will hit you back. Anyway II, the roundup:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Going back to one of my old favorites, that I didn't like for awhile, then did like, then loved, then hated, then should've loved but hated, then was nonplussed about, then Googled nonplussed to make sure I used it right, then took a nap, then clapped my hands, shot up out of bed and kissed my 'Donna Martin graduates' screenshot, scrubbed my undercarriage with my Q-Bert loofah and sat down to write about why you should sell Anibal Sanchez. Anibal's K-rate is in the dumper. Big enough sample size to be concerned — that's not what she said! Huh? His velocity is off. More concern. That dirty Sanchez! He hasn't been great, but he's been much worse when you throw out favorable luck. His xFIP is at 3.91, and he looks similar to the pitcher he was in 2010 when he had a 7 K/9 and a 3.55 ERA. Only he was in Florida then and against NL teams. I could see Anibal's ERA continuing to rise and I don't see much relief for his lack of Ks (currently a 6.9 K/9). 6.9 K/9? Who are you, Chase Anderson? Who the hell is Chase Anderson? I wouldn't sell Anibal for tickets to see PM Dawn, but I would explore options. Anyway, here's some more players to Buy or Sell this week in fantasy baseball:Please, blog, may I have some more?
Now that I'm married Jimmy Carter's line, "I've looked on a lot of women with lust. I've committed adultery in my heart many times." Really stands out to me. I don't necessarily want to think about Jimmy Carter in lust, or even contemplating lust. The thing he doesn't say is if he wasn't married, he'd be lusting too. Men are men, and Jimmy Carter is no different. Jimmy Carter is one tightly wound ball of lust, and probably hooked Clinton up with Lewinsky. Jimmy Carter is a pimp! If Jimmy Carter was president in the 2000's, he probably would've had Outkast to the White House and would've been like, "What's colder than our relations with the Middle East? Ice cold!" In that similar vein, I lust after rookie pitchers. They are so dang sexy prior to actually pitching in the major leagues. Jimmy Nelson is just another. I like him a lot, and glad to see Marco Estrada was replaced by him. From Nelson, could see a 9+ K/9 and a middling walk rate. Due to the walk rate, that has ballooned at times, he could be absolute death — like games of 5 IP, 6 ER death. He could also run over the NL with games of 6 IP, 8 Ks. I'd grab him in all leagues for the upside, but be wary of the downside. As Jimmy Carter also once said, "You can do what you have to do, and sometimes you can do it even better than you think you can. Speaking of can, that's where I like to stick my peanuts. I said PEANUTS!" Anyway, here's what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:Please, blog, may I have some more?
I'm staring out on a prairie in the middle of Palm Springs. Okay, it's not a prairie. It's more of a dirt field with a bingo card blowing through it. But let's pretend it's a prairie. Why am I standing in a prairie that's not really a prairie? Because all great baseball moments happen this way. Just one man and rows of corn. Except those aren't rows of corns, but walkers lined up against the window of a Starbucks. But let's pretend they are cornfields! I'm pulling off my cap (not wearing a cap; don't want to mess my hair), staring directly into the sky (wearing sunglasses) and screaming at the Fantasy Baseball Overlord, "Why do you have to make the rest of us suffer for the childhood you never had?!" Okay, I need to move on before the OPP (Old People Police) come after me. We should've known a rather pedestrian 7 IP, 4 ER from Masahiro Tanaka was a sign that he was hurt. We should've known! Or an even worse 6 2/3 IP, 5 ER start the next time out. We should've known! Alas, we didn't know. So, Tanaka's going for a variety of tests, and hopefully it's nothing, but any time there's something wrong with a pitcher's elbow it's something. Are we sure he didn't inflame his elbow using Hideki's porn collection? Anyway, here's what else I saw yesterday in fantasy baseball:Please, blog, may I have some more?

I would rather have a bottle in front of me then a frontal labotamy
"If your philosophy can be expressed in a bumper sticker, your philosophy is stupid"
Which would ironically make a good bumber sticker.
"Well, you've got more than three ounces of it, so it's going in the trash."
"It will work out anyway."
"Could be worse."
"Live is stupid - so shut the fuck up and have some fun!"
We live our lives aiming for the top, with dreams of working hard at a job we enjoy, contributing to society, earning lots of money, having a big house with two expensive sports cars on the drive, with a beautiful trophy wife and two kids to greet us at the front door when we come home from a half day shift and lots of great sex.
Strange irony then that most of us are going to end up spending most of our lives slaving away in a chipboard cell with life fucking us in the ass.
Never argue with an idiot, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

New to MATLAB?
I have to calculate a square of vector which should results a scalar value. i.e) A=(B-C)^2 B and C are vectors and I need A as a scalar. How can I implement this in matlab??
No products are associated with this question.
My guess is you need an inner product, i.e. A = |B-C|^2, you can do it many different ways, one way is
B = ones(3,1); C = ones(3,1); A = (B-C)'*(B-C)
Thanks a lot...I have to do this operation repeatedly in loop. which is more efficient, whether tmp=B-C; dot(tmp,tmp); or norm(B-C)^2?
I'd say

Fake bills still out there: Reports of counterfeits are down, but authorities warn merchants to stay alert

Hmmm... She let me bring the baby up. It was very quick, like I described in my first post, but I birthed the baby and then reached down and put him on my chest. There was a few brief seconds in between when the midwife made sure the cord wasn't going to be in the way but the baby definitely wasn't under water and out of my body for more than 10 seconds. Probably more like under 5 seconds.
I know that is the argument that water birth supporters have stated. But at the same time, I can't help but wonder. Especially after my own personal experience as well as the experiences of my midwife.
That being said, that's a personal decision of mine. If waterbirths were unsafe, midwives wouldn't do them IMO. And, even if it were "iffy" - then hospitals DEFINITELY wouldn't do them - and some hospitals do. I've never minded attending waterbirths - and most of them go off without a hitch.
|But I can't figure out what the green/brown fluid was that he spit up...? That's why they're claiming he swallowed/aspirated pool water. He had no meconium but I did have a bowel movement in the water.
Water birth is safe but hospitals do things that are unsafe, unscientific and bad for babies all the time.
The first waterbirth I ever apprenticed at, we had to resuscitate the baby. My midwife is a big supporter of waterbirths for the moms, but she says it poses problems because it's extremely difficult to resuscitate in the pool. She had to clamp and cut the cord before it stopped pulsating in order to get the baby on a flat service so we could administer oxygen.

Potting Bench finished
Well, we finished my "new" potting bench that we saved from the dump a couple of weeks ago. DH put wheels on it so I can move it around because it is solid maple and weighs a ton. We added a little "junk" trim to spruce it up and put a coat of paint on it. DH cut slots in a portion of the top and I put a tote underneath to catch the dirt as I pot plants. All in all, I'm really happy with it! Can't wait til next spring when I get to try it out....if I can wait that long! 8D
That is soooooo cute!!! Love the color too. I've got to get going to replace the one I left with the house when we moved.
that's an awesome recovery...
isn't it great, when something just says what it should be, instead of how it is, left unattended and unappreciated?
and the routing job above the tub is very creative...
also the gingerbread doodads you added are perfect for the touches for that corner..
it should clean up easy with the latex paint...just running a hose over it...lucky girl~
Wow I love that .I want a new one I am working on a small potting room.Love it.
Oh WOW......and Jeanne took the words right out of my head.
(how does she do that?!) Toomuchglass also said what I'm thinking. LOL.
That is such an amazing transformation. I sure wish the original owner could see it now!
Your DH does great work, could you deliver him along with the potting bench? I'll send my address asap.
hugs, Karen
Really love it!! That color is delightful. What a great bench to have. Don't wait to use it. Get your tools on it, get some dirt in that bucket, line up some containers of seeds on the gallery shelf! Don't let it go to waste for another minute. Oooooo, I want to touch it...get a grip, Cheryl
Ohh loverly!! My DH built me a potting bench last year and included the slots too! I used tinted stain on mine. Here are some photos:
Here is a link that might be useful: Potting Bench 2009
Oh dear... this makes my potting bench look very, very sad (mine is actually just an old formica top kitchen table that is warped, peeling and rusty). Marlene, yours is breathtaking and incredibly inspirational! Excellent job of reviving someone elses throw-away! They would beg to have it back if they were to see it now!! Love, love, love the color, and the gingerbread trim, and the slots...
Thanks so much for all of the wonderful comments! It's amazing how much mileage I got from a $3.00 quart of mismatched paint I picked up at Lowe's this spring! But, the potting bench finished it off. All of the gingerbread, etc. were pieces we've taken off of other things and the two round pieces on the top are actually the metal ends from a commercial gift paper roll...I'm looking forward to using it! I think I'll take the suggestion and start some seedlings! And, Kath...your potting bench is awesome too!
Both of the benches turned out great. Love the color & gingerbread corners & slots are really nice. Kath's is nice in that it can be taken off & washed or give easy access to contents below in case she needs to retrieve some soil mix. Surprising how similar the 2 benches are! Jan
Marlene, I thought I had commented on this earlier. Your potting bench is a GREAT SAVE! You guys did a beautiful job, repurposing it. (Isn't it sad to see what is thrown away?) LOVE the color and the slots for soil! This inspired me to get my potting bench finished. You two always create the most INCREDIBLE things! Thank you for sharing! Bear Hugs! Kirk
I just yesterday aquired an old kitchen bakers rack/cabinet. I planned to make it into a potting bench. Thank you both for the great ideas. I had planned on having my husband just cut out a hole along one side for disposing the dirt. I love the slots and drip pan. Also envy all the storage kath has.
If I had either one of those potting benches I just KNOW I would have a hard time getting it dirty.Beautiful jobs!

Hi, how are you doing? I could use your help. My brother in law was just diagnosed this Monday with ALS he has a terrible time speaking and swallowing food. He has a therapist, but is there any medicine that might help? Also, is the difficulty in swallowing considered an advanced symptom? I think you helping others is really great! Sweet pea

The bottom line Which was dissapointing but understandable considering Varig. I agree with idea to dump foreign travel routes outside of South America. SAO PAULO, April 30 (Reuters) - Brazilian airline Gol Linhas Aereas (GOLL4.SA: Quote, Profile, Research)(GOL.N: Quote, Profile, Research) reported its second straight quarterly loss on Wednesday as problems with its Varig unit and high fuel prices offset growing passenger traffic.The carrier posted a net loss of 3.5 million reais ($2.0 million) in the first quarter, compared with a profit of 116.6 million reais in the year-earlier period and a loss of 24.2 million reais in the fourth quarter.Gol, the second-ranked airline in Brazil after TAM Linhas Aereas (TAMM4.SA: Quote, Profile, Research)(TAM.N: Quote, Profile, Research), also reduced its year-end fleet size forecast to 108 from 112. It plans to return older aircraft and gradually replace them with more next-generation jets from the Boeing Co's (BA.N: Quote, Profile, Research) 737 family, which are more fuel efficient.Gol's bottom line has suffered since it bought last year Brazil's former flagship airline Varig, which was on the verge of collapse after years of mismanagement. The company is currently trying to overhaul Varig and bring its cost structure down in line with Gol's.Excluding Varig, which canceled three international routes in March and has plans to scrap two more because of soaring fuel costs, Gol said it would have made a net profit of 200.1 million reais ($115 million) in the first quarter.Gol plans to phase out Varig's remaining routes to Europe and Mexico in the coming months and focus instead on Brazil and South America, where it thinks Varig is better positioned to profit from a fast-growing aviation market."Our strategy is to reinforce our operations in South America. That means taking actions to standardize our fleet and take advantage of that with flights where we have a competitive advantage in terms of costs," Gol Chief Executive Constantino de Oliveira Junior said on a conference call.
My prediction that the takeover of Varig was a mistake has come true in spades. The company bought problems that they could have avoided. The sooner GOL closes down Varig's European routes, the sooner they can get back to profitability. In fact, I'm not at all sure they should keep the Varig name alive. Varig's reputation for mismanagement was legendary while GOL has enjoyed a reputation for shrewd management (until they took over Varig.)
I fully agree with your views. Varig was very cheap and the brand reputable somehow. It is a traditional name. But perception in the latter years of Varig was poor and recover the name is hard. What was apparently cheap ended up costing GOL a lot of money, so the earlier they close the european routes and Mexico and concentrate in Latin America the better. I still think they can make some money in south America but I have to admit that the chunk of its business is domestic market in brazil which is increasing massively. I am careful optimistic but have to admit that the pain was great in the past months. Too much volatility helped by oil price never ending increases. This may be about to change as GOL slowly returns to profitability in the 3rd quarter after 3 quarters of losses. The market used to pay a premium for GOL against TAM. This is no longer the case. They sell for similar P/Es if I am not mistaken!

Apricots in Z 4 or 5
I've been trying to find a couple of Apricot trees for sale nearby (Chicago area), but nobody has them but one store. The local independent nursery doesn't have them. The one I bought appears to have died, and the rest of the group still at the same store also look to have pretty much died before even being sold.
I can take the one I have back with no problem, but I'm wondering if apricots are not quite cold hardy enough for Zone 4-5? Is there a certain cultivar I should look for, or vendor I should contact? Comments welcome!
Apricots should do great around Chicago, especially if you are close to the lake. The problem is early blooming. At least in my yard, they are the first to bloom. Bad news for late frosts/freezes. If you want to try a good one, go with Tomcot (i believe Raintree has them, maybe others). I have Puget Gold (don't buy this...it doesn't like our wet springs/summers) and it even has flowers after this horrible winter here in southwest WI (several times hitting -20 to -22F)...
From what Ive read a lot of them can survive in zone 4 or even 3, the problem is late season growth getting fried or more likely the flower buds getting hit by late frosts since they are so early flowering.
You can try to find manchurian apricots. They can survive up in manitoba and alberta and apparently fruit well most years. They are edible and taste ok, again from what ive read. They might be a good place to start.
Or for a project, you can try to grow a bunch from seed. They apparently grow fairly "true" from seed (although not exactly like the parent fruit) and germinate pretty readily. The more you plant the higher likelyhood of survival.
I live about 55 miles west of Chicago on the beginning of farm country. This past winter we saw -22 several times, brrr!
I will buy a couple bare-root trees asap, sounds like the way to go!
I tried a seed from an orange tree years ago...it sprouted....and kept indoors, it grew to about 8' before i gave it away on craigslist; the guy who took it moved to Florida and planted it!
IF you are going to grow apricots from seed there are two ways
1 - Clean the pits and very carefully crack it with a nut cracker or a vice. You just want to split it to help water get into the kernal inside the pit. Soak in water for two days then place in slightly moist seed starter or vermiculite about an inch deep in a baggie. Toss it in the fridge for two or three months. They should start to germinate in the bag. If they dont put the baggie outside in shade when the temps dont go below 4C (roughly40F)
2 - clean the seed and plant it outside a week or two before the ground freezes. Squirrels etc are good at finding them I hear so you might want to cover the are in mesh.

Maybe the biggest surprise of the college football season to this point has been the Texas Tech Red Raiders. I don't think anyone expected them to ranked in the Top 15 at this point in the season, and I know nobody expected them to beat the living daylights out of West Virginia a couple of weeks ago. But, honestly, I don't really care about any of that. I just want to focus on the Red Raiders cheerleaders! I think the Red Raiders cheerleaders are one of the more underappreciated squads in all of college sports. Maybe it's because they cheer for a technical school in a town that most people couldn't find on a map if you gave the 2 hours. But that shouldn't be the point. Hot is hot, and the Red Raiders cheerleaders are hot. And despite her ethnic sounding name, LaShey is the biggest blonde bombshell on the team (which is probably how she found herself hanging with Snoop).

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Global shares fell on Friday on unease over the lack of progress in U.S. fiscal negotiations and on signs of a deepening recession in the euro zone, but data indicating strong expansion in Chinese manufacturing helped lift oil prices.
China's vast manufacturing sector expanded in early December at the fastest pace in 14 months as new orders and employment rose, a survey showed, adding to evidence of a pick-up in the Chinese economy.
The dollar fell from a near nine-month high against the yen while the euro surged to its highest level against the greenback since early May as U.S. inflation data affirmed the Federal Reserve's ultra-easy monetary policy.
Talks between President Barack Obama and House of Representatives Speaker John Boehner on budget negotiations designed to avert the "fiscal cliff" were seen at an apparent standstill on Friday. Some $600 billion in tax hikes and spending cuts that are set to begin in January, unless lawmakers reach a deal, are seen as a threat that could tip the U.S. economy back into recession.
Frustration has mounted over the lack of progress, reflected in a 0.6 percent drop in the S&P 500 on Thursday.
"The uncertainty that (the fiscal talks) is creating is basically holding the markets hostage in the short term," said Andres Garcia-Amaya, global market strategist at J.P. Morgan Funds, in New York.
The Dow Jones industrial average closed down 35.71 points, or 0.27 percent, at 13,135.01. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index fell 5.87 points, or 0.41 percent, at 1,413.58. The Nasdaq Composite Index slid 20.83 points, or 0.70 percent, at 2,971.33.
Weighing on the Nasdaq was a 3.8 percent drop in shares of tech giant Apple (AAPL.O) after UBS cut its price target to $700 from $780 and the iPhone 5 debuted in China to a cool reception. The stock, which closed at $509.79, has tumbled in recent months for several reasons after peaking at $705 in September, including investors locking in profits ahead of scheduled capital-gains increases for next year.
The MSCI global stock index fell 0.04 percent to 336.67 points.
European shares slipped as investors banked profits after hitting 18-month highs earlier in the week, and some said the pan-European index was vulnerable to a deeper correction the longer U.S. budget talks remain at an impasse.
The FTSEurofirst 300 closed down 0.1 percent at 1,133.36.
"The bad news is, in large part, we've seen the market ignore relatively good news in the economic data stream as we focus on the fiscal cliff," said Art Hogan, managing director of Lazard Capital Markets in New York.
China's manufacturing data was encouraging for its key trading partners, including the United States, and for the prospects for world economic growth. China is the world's second-largest oil consumer.
Brent crude settled $1.24 higher at $109.15 a barrel, the first weekly gain this month after two weeks of losses. U.S. crude rose 84 cents to settle at $86.73.
But the outlook for the euro zone economy remains gloomy.
Disappointing German manufacturing sector figures and a rise in euro zone unemployment overshadowed a small pick-up in purchasing manager data.
The German manufacturing purchasing managers index slipped to 46.3 in December from 46.8 the previous month, remaining well below the 50 threshold that divides growth from contraction and missing the consensus Reuters poll forecast for a rise to 47.2.
"All in all, the picture for the(euro zone) economy has not changed much after today's data," said Annalisa Piazza, an economist at Newedge Strategy in London. "GDP is expected to continue to contract in Q4-12, and there are no signs of improvement for the first part of next year."
The euro rose 0.64 percent to $1.3160, while the dollar slipped 0.15 percent to 83.48 yen.
The yen had earlier weakened after Japanese media reported the conservative Liberal Democratic Party is set for a resounding victory in elections on Sunday, cementing speculation that the party's leader, Shinzo Abe, will be in a strong position to push for bold monetary easing.
"Abe has been making pretty strong comments about inflation targeting, and if we look at the economy Japan needs a lower currency without a doubt," said Maurice Pomery, managing director at consultants Strategic Alpha.
"This is going to put pressure on the BoJ. It's the start of a move lower in the yen that has a long way to go."
The benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasury note was up 8/32 in price to yield 1.7041 percent.
The U.S. Labor Department said its Consumer Price Index dropped 0.3 percent last month as a sharp decline in gasoline prices offset increases in other areas. It was also the largest drop since May and followed a 0.1 percent gain in October.
"The crux of this report is simply that the inflationary backdrop remains very benign, providing the Fed with considerable breathing room to keep monetary policy accommodative," said Millan Mulraine, a senior economist at TD Securities in New York.

Sears Tower Arrests: US Government Creates Another Al-Qaeda Cell
Entrapment method used again to frighten Americans into submission - By Paul Joseph Watson
Hot on the heels of a rash of staged terror alerts in both Britain and Canada, the announcement that seven men were arrested for planning to blow up the Sears Tower in Chicago and other prominent buildings is already taking the shape of another US government manufactured Al-Qaeda punch and judy show.
As is usually the case, the alleged ringleader Nassir Batiste's family and friends are aghast that he could have any terrorist connections and uniformly deny the plausibility of and Al-Qaeda connection, describing him as a simple construction worker and a "nice guy." Here are
some excerpts
from a CNN piece which you can view below.
ARIANE WEBSTER, SUSPECT'S GRANDMOTHER: I'm -- truly down in my heart I believe that's a stone lie. I been knowing Nassir (ph) better than five years. I never know him to get in any trouble. I never know him to have any problem with anybody. I always know him, he taught my son how to do karate. I have a son that is 18 years old. When he first met my son, my son was only about ...
ANDREWS (reporter) : So you don't think he's a terrorist, as the government's alleging?
WEBSTER: No, I don't. I really don't believe that.
MASTER G.H.G. ATHEA, SUSPECT'S FRIEND: Someone along the line offered to him some funds to do whatever he wanted to do if that's what he wanted to do. As far as some subversive work. And said they would give him whatever he needed.
ANDREWS: So somebody had approached him to give him money to blow up buildings?
ATHEA: To do whatever he wanted to do. But that was far from his mind. So he had no desire to interact with these men to accept anything they had to offer.
ANDREWS: So bottom line here, is your friend a terrorist?
ATHEA: No, he's not. Absolutely not.
The key comment here is from the suspects friend. It clearly looks as if the "someone" who tried to bend his ear and convince him to join Al-Qaeda was acting on behalf of the US government and running an entrapment sting.
Entrapment is the primary method used to expose supposed Al-Qaeda cells, the evidence of which they were dangerous terrorists later dissolves into thin air in every single instance. It was used in the
Canadian scare
earlier this month and also recently in the
Toledo arrests
General Gonzales said
that "the individual they thought was a member of al-Qaida was present at their meetings and in actuality he was working with the South Florida Joint Terrorism Task Force."
This is classic entrapment and the artificial manufacture of an Al-Qaeda boogeyman to wave in front of the American people.
Batiste was most likely told that he was part of an anti-terror drill to test the security of Chicago landmarks and that he had to recruit a mock group of followers. Either that or he was a hand-picked idiot who had severe mental deficiencies and couldn't spot and obvious set-up.
One of the repeating elements to emerge from every major terror sting or forged terror alert is the use of retarded individuals as patsies, informants and go-betweens. The terror raid in Forest Gate three weeks ago in which an innocent man was shot by the police was conducted on the whim of information provided by a man with an
IQ of just 69
Similarly, it was
reported today
that the informant who sparked interest in alleged Ottawa terrorist Mohamed Harkat was "certifiably insane."
The group used by the
FBI to bomb the World Trade Center in 1993
were also clinically retarded. It's easier to frame people who lack any credibility and don't have any means to eloquently defend themselves.
Don't be surprised to learn of a connection to a retarded individual over the next few days.
We shouldn't be lapse in our understanding that the Sears Tower is indeed the target of deranged terrorist masters who want to destroy America. Internet speculation that the landmark would be attacked on April 19, 2004 was rubbished by many and yet a derailing of the plot was
quietly announced
that very day yet given no play in the establishment media.
In March 2004, Silverstein Properties bought the tower in an
$800 million deal
. Larry Silverstein's penchant for large insurance pay outs, coupled with the strange coincidence of buildings only owned by him collapsing on 9/11, makes for a dangerous combination.
The Sears Tower is indeed under threat - not from government created patsies, but the elite itself.

Magnificent self portrait, very good. I like.ReplyDelete
Lovely self portrait - and transparencies, I remember them! Technology has travelled a long way, hasn't it?ReplyDelete
No wonder you take such great pictures, you have been doing this for awhile now. Dang though, you were good even way back whenReplyDelete
I love looking at old photos, and you have reminded me of what photography was like before the digital age!ReplyDelete

No, no thorns
Oh Yes Hostafan. I see a lot of gardens
and cotoneasters just stick their elbows out so you bang your head weeding
Mr Blobby treatment. I like that, describes it exactly. I think some people that see no further than a bright coloured flower, completely oblivious to an ugly shaped shrub.
I once visited a garden where everything was trimmed up like that, looked awful and the owner was really proud
Good point about having room Hostafan. If you haven't and you start hacking at them the lose their lovely shape, all of them.
Cornubia is good and tree like
Hybridus pendulus as a tree is grafted and is a weeping tree, It's a ground cover one grated to the top of something else.
C.lacteus is definitely a bush, not so brightly berried.
Google them and see which one you like the look of
Righto Philippa, message received
Suburb, if you post a pic of the one you're not sure of someone will recognise it
They lose their leaves in winter.
If it has lost them due to weedkiller I wouldn't bother with cuttings, the weedkiller will have been absorbed.
Otherwise they should be fine. I find they layer very well if you can get stems down to the ground
As well as mole hills my resident moles make very superficial tunnels that disturb the surface of the ground, your description sounds right
They don't like a hack back do they
I hard=pruned some that had taken over a path, they did the opposite from Verdun's. They grew really well for the first season then died back a bit at a time
Yes, I've looked at the Bristol onion and I think you're right Marion.
A. vineale looks like the one that was marketed as A. 'Hair' a few years ago. That has made a mass of leafy seedlings but I haven't seen a flower since the first season.
