Song for Saratoga
Good Monday morning to you. I have always thought that one thing Kentucky does better than Saratoga when it comes to racing is its annual tradition of the crowd singing its theme song, namely "My Old Kentucky Home" prior to the running of each Kentucky Derby. Surely, Saratoga Springs, home of the richest, oldest racing […] [Read More]

Have a fun and safe weekend out there! As more than 20,000 Phish fans poured into Saratoga Spa State Park Friday for the first of three concerts, members of the state's park police union warned that budget cuts were gutting its force. Since New York canceled annual academy training for park police recruits in 2008, […] [Read More]

Hi: 13° Lo:3°
By Tristan Harris Sunday 19 January 2014 Updated: 22/01 23:42
A FOOTBALL match held at Bromsgrove School on January 12 has raised £424 for a charity set up in memory of murdered teenager Georgia Williams.
The game, which saw Telford and Wrekin Territorial Policing Unit beat the North Worcestershire unit 7-1, was organised by Redditch PC Stuart Baugh for the Georgia Williams Trust.
Seventeen-year-old Georgia was killed in Wellington, Telford, last year.
About 100 friends and supporters, including Georgia's family, and Georgia's dad - West Mercia Det Con Steve Williams - came on as a substitute in the second half. After the final whistle, the Georgia Williams Trophy was presented by the teenager's mum Lynette and it is hoped, after its success, the match will now become an annual event.
PC Baugh said: "It was a good turn-out considering it was a wet and very cold Sunday afternoon.
"We might need a bit more practice together before playing Telford and Wrekin again but the main thing is everyone enjoyed it and we raised a decent sum for a very worthwhile cause."
The Trust's chairman, Richard Langton, said it was a real family occasion and thanked everyone involved for giving up their time."
The trust, which has already raised more than £30,000 in its first six months, aims to generate funds and activities so young people can participate in life-building activities and contribute to their local community.
Log onto www.thegeorgiawilliamstrust.org for more information on the trust or visit www.facebook.com/thegeorgiawilliamstrust to check out the charity's Facebook page.

1993 GMC C1500 • 150,000 miles
The truck froze up and is leaking water very heavy from the rear of the engine running down both sides of oil pan. I suspect freeze plugs pushed out. Does the engine or trans. Have to be pulled to change them? I am not sure of the location of them either. Local mechanic is quoating 1200.00 and I dont have it.

Small block Chevy has two plugs in the back of the motor that necessitates transmission and engine be parted, so yes the transmission and/or engine comes out.
Is there anyway to see or feel for sure that they have came out? Also someone said there may be a coolant crossover pipe / hose somewhere on the back of the engine that could have blown. Is this possible?

Frankly no. It froze. Water expands when frozen. Plugs pushed out. Very likely. Whats also possible is a cracked block. If its leaking as hard as you say it is, pull the tranny/engine.

14 is what I want to see get finished the most... I thought that one was started from late 2010? ;D
Bunch of stuff to work on, and all of it is pretty freakin' sweet. Though I've been waiting on that New Day for a looooong time, dude. :)
Hehe yea, the first FL-save is from november 2010. I guess I didn't render it before 2011.
Of course I could work on all of them, but I got no ideas left. I knew you would like to listen to all the stuff I (almost) never talked about. :)

Love it. Love the whole thing, especially cause I know most of the songs.. great job man, good idea posting it like this
Thanks a lot!
I guess it's not always about finishing a project, it's about the fun that you had while making it.
That doesn't mean it's not important to finish it, but I think you know what I mean (maybe?).

At the blog Overthinking It, a delightful roundtable has assembled to overthink the economics of the Death Star, as seen in Star Wars. In case you don't recall, the Death Star was a weapon designed to destroy an entire planet -- which brings up some potential issues if that planet is a productive part of an empire (sorry, Empire). The initial question boils down to:
Doesn't the Empire take a huge economic loss from the lost productivity of an entire planet? They were presumably paying taxes and... READ ON

After reading up on as much as I can find on the topic of brewing related ph I have ended up wondering if the benefit of hitting specific mash ph's isn't really just about getting a good efficiency.
I don't really care about efficiency at the homebrew scale since it only costs a dollar or two more to buy more grain if necessary. So, assuming I can manipulate many of the other variables such as attenuation/dextrin content with mash temperature, and being able to acidify sparge water and/or kettle wort using acid, what are the benefits of mashing at ph 5.2 versus 5.8. I really cant think of anything right now ?
Lets also take consistency out of the equation and say, for the sake of argument, that I start with RO water and add measured salts to get somewhere in the range I mention above, and lets just say I make the same water every time I brew a particular beer.
lots of assumptions I know, and I dont intend to actually take this approach, I just want to try and learn if there's some extra benefit I haven't taken into account with specific regard to mash ph alone. I have read many articles which list together the benefits of achieving 'optimum' mash/kettle/ferment/product stability ph. but not many just on mash ph alone.
Mash efficiency is the least of your concerns. If you have seen any of the hundreds of posts on this subject here you will have observed that flavor is what is of interest. If you were to brew 2 otherwise identical beers with one at mash pH 5.8 and one at 5.4 you would answer your question as soon as you tasted the beers. All the flavors are 'brighter' at 5.4.
This might be the beer talking....but I really love beer!
I disagree that mash pH has much to do with efficiency. Mash pH has much more to do with conversion and fermentability. Efficiency is far more effected by the grind and the run off rate and procedures.

AJ - this brightness you talk of, is it due to the mash ph, or perhaps due to the derived kettle/fermenter ph ? I guess i didn't design my question very well.
If I do two batches of the same grain bill.
1. mash at 5.8 and acidify the pre boil kettle wort to ph5.3
2. mash at 5.4 and acidify the pre boil kettle wort to ph5.3
I know everyone will now tell me that the differences in ph will result in a different wort fermentability and dextrin content, so I will run the two mashes at different temperatures to each other to compensate for the differing ph and result in the same fermentabilty and dextrin content (calculated using my time machine)
Brewing of beer involves hundreds or perhaps even thousands of biochemical reactions most of which are catalyzed by enzymes. An enzyme works best is a given temperature and pH range. There are lots or reactions going on in the mash tun beyond just those of the amylases. As even the two amylases have different optimum pH's it is probably clear that there is no optimum pH at which all the enzymes in play will work at their best. So we rely on empirical determination of what is a good pH at which to operate the mash tun. That seems to be about 5.4. Go higher and beer flavors become dull (and you probably get less conversion as well). Go lower and they say the beer tastes thin. So you must, for best flavor, get the mash pH into the right range. There are reasons for wanting the pH out of the kettle to be 5 - 5.3 and so some brewers monitor that and make adjustments with additional acid or salt to get into that range if the runoff isn't in that range automatically. Get the mash pH right and the kettle pH tends to be right too as does the fermenter pH and final beer pH. So mash pH is the pH we focus on.

The African Predicament
Howard French has written a passionate, heartbreaking and ultimately heartbroken book about covering West Africa's blood-soaked descent into a nightmare of war and greed as a reporter for the New York Times in the 1990s. The book is called A Continent for the Taking: The Tragedy and Hope of Africa, and, much as French wished it otherwise, there is far more tragedy than hope in it.
It has become something of a tradition for the correspondents of America's major newspapers to write a tour d' horizon upon concluding a stint on the continent. After David Lamb's The Africans was published to commercial and critical success in 1983, we had Blaine Harden's Africa: Dispatches From a Fragile Continent in 1991; Alan Cowell's Killing the Wizards: Wars of Power and Freedom From Zaire to South Africa in 1992; Keith B. Richburg's Out of America: A Black Man Confronts Africa in 1997; and Bill Berkeley's The Graves Are Not Yet Full: Race, Tribe and Power in the Heart of Africa in 2001. Since Lamb's time, the books have grown progressively bleaker, and French's may be the bleakest of all. Although French abhors the war porn he believes dominates most coverage of Africa, the continent's rot has advanced to a point where it is almost impossible to look beyond it. It is a situation that angers and sickens French all the more because he has a deeper and more profound connection to the continent than most journalists.
French fell in love with Africa before he gave any thought to journalism. Growing up in the United States, he was reminded by his proud African-American parents of black achievements at every turn. His father, a doctor, moved the family to Ivory Coast so that he could run a regional health program. After graduating from college, French spent six years living in Abidjan, first as a translator and university lecturer and finally as a freelance reporter. He married an Ivorian, learned several African languages and read widely and deeply about African culture and history.
He writes that he accepted the Times's West Africa bureau in 1994 "as a personal challenge." He would not become a "fireman" chasing one disaster after another to satisfy what he regarded as "the world media's insatiable market in images of horror." He would not make heroes out of Westerners rushing to the rescue. He would show his readers Africa's strengths as well as its weaknesses.
It was not to be. The blaze already licking at West Africa when French returned burst into an inferno, forcing French to play the fireman after all and eventually burning him so badly that he felt lucky to escape. Sent to Mobutu's Zaire in 1995 to cover the outbreak of the ebola virus, he was wary of "rushing toward another lurid African mess that, thanks to the magic of television, had become the global story of the week." Within a year, he would find himself covering the collapse of Zaire itself and the death of millions sucked into its conflicts. As he struggled to make sense of what was happening--and especially the disastrous consequences of the Clinton Administration's decision to hand a wide swath of the continent over to a brand-new set of dictators (often euphemistically described as "strong-men"), starting with Rwanda's Paul Kagame--Africa fell further and further outside the orbit of world attention.
Following US foreign policy is part of a Times correspondent's job, and French's book gives an unusually depressing account of American hypocrisy and mendacity toward Africa. The Clinton Administration wished Africa well. But it was not willing to risk American lives, treasure or votes even to halt the most gargantuan African tragedies, much less to foster African democracy, human rights or economic development. The "African Renaissance" the President was eager to trumpet turned out in large part to amount to opening the doors for American corporations eager to extract the continent's resources. Struggling democracies such as Mali's received little or no help (though when one considers the fate of such countries as Nigeria and Angola, which attracted more solicitous notice, perhaps indifference is a blessing in disguise). After the killing of eighteen US Rangers in Somalia, the Administration declined in 1994 to intervene when Rwandan Hutus began slaughtering their Tutsi compatriots by the hundreds of thousands, or even to call what was happening a genocide. "If we use the word 'genocide' and are seen as doing nothing, what will be the effect on the November [Congressional] election?" French quotes Susan Rice, a rising young black star who would soon be named Assistant Secretary of State for African Affairs, as saying in April of that year.

Shopping Guides
Alternative Metals Buying Guide
Mankind and, of course, womankind have adorned themselves with precious metals for centuries. We've always loved the color, shine, and rarity of gold and silver, fashioning the metals into coins, crowns, and even dishes. For talented artisans and their patrons, fine jewelry meant gold and silver and, recently, platinum. However, other metals, such as steel and titanium, can be crafted into high-quality, durable and stylish jewelry, and jewelers have become more appreciative of these alternatives in recent years. The jewelry industry uses the term "alternative metals" to describe the trend toward using industrial metals and alloys for contemporary design. This alternative metals buying guide offers some basic information to help you learn more about these fashionable metals.
New Trends in Claddagh Rings
Although they are steeped in tradition and history, Claddagh rings can still be very modern. Traditional Claddagh rings are made of silver or gold and offer the romantic design of a pair of hands holding a heart, which is topped with a crown. Contemporary styles feature this design but are made from modern metals or are decorated with colorful gems. Some feature additional designs and more elaborate styles. When you're shopping for Celtic jewelry, consider this classic Irish ring in an updated design.
Best Ideas for a Cowboy Birthday Party
Plan the perfect cowboy birthday party for your little cowhands and their posse with a Western-themed party. With the right decorations, games and food, you can create a hoedown that your child and his or her friends will remember for years to come. Find cowboy party supplies and crafts for a colossal cowboy party, and don't forget to capture every moment with your camera. Invitations. Create cowboy party invitations that look like "wanted" posters using recycled brown cardstock paper. Print a black-and-white picture of the cowboy or cowgirl of honor in the center and use an old-style font or block lettering. Include the time and place for the round-up on the cowboy party invitations. Use fun phrases such as "howdy partner" and "saddle up for the showdown" for added laughs. Ask guests to come in their favorite cowboy attire, including rugged jeans, flannels and boots. Decorations. For cowboy party decorations, cover tables with red and white tablecloths. Display "wanted" posters of the birthday cowboy or cowgirl throughout the cowboy party room. Add balloons in colors of red, white and blue. Shape strands of rope into lassos and place them on the tables or hang them on chairs. Use bandanas or a Western-themed fabric for place mats. Create large cutouts of cacti, horses and cowboys for decorations. Bales of hay, stalks of corn and other items can add to the cowboy party decorations. Place bottles of water or juice boxes in a wheelbarrow filled with ice for refreshments. Dress up. Costumes and clothing can add to the cowboy birthday party theme. Because all guests may not know each other, give each guest a name tag cut to look like a sheriff's badge. Use silver cardstock cut into star shapes and attach the name tags with safety pins or tape. Provide guests with bandanas in a variety of colors. Give each guest a straw cowboy hat and a water pistol for an authentic cowboy look. Games. Though cowboys can be serious, there is nothing like having several fun games planned for even the roughest, toughest cowboy to enjoy. If you're holding a summer party, tell all cowboys and cowgirls to bring their swimsuit for a shoot-out using water pistols. Have a galloping contest; use brooms as pretend ponies and have races to see whose horse is the fastest. Old-fashioned potato-sack jumping contests are easy to assemble. Hold a boot toss contest: Have children toss bean bags, gold coins or other cowboy party supplies into an old pair of worn cowboy boots. Food. Create an old-fashioned homemade spread, complete with a cowboy party cake. Barbecued hamburgers and hot dogs or sloppy joes are always a favorite for little cowboys and cowgirls. Salsa and chips, beef jerky and even pulled pork sandwiches are additional ideas. Corn on the cob and cornbread are traditional cowboy staples. Create a cowboy party cake in the shape of a hat, pony or boot to continue the theme. Goodie bags. Thank each guest for coming by giving them a galvanized pail filled with cowboy party favors. Fill each pail with a small amount of straw or hay. Add trail mix, gold coins and licorice rope to each pail. Tie pieces of raffia or fabric for additional decoration to the pail's handle. For other cowboy party favors, consider purchasing small plastic harmonicas, sheriff badges and cowboy figurines. View All Crafts Back to Guides Directory View All Crafts

Dr. M Jadi's Ratings
This guy is literally the worst, knowledge and communication definitely needs work, but his treatment of his patients is atrocious. I was a poor student who accidentally missed one appointment due to extenuating circumstances, and he sent me a bill for $50! I switched doctors when the refused to waive or reduce the fee (I was a student with no money who could barely afford transportation/food), and he sent it to a collection agency in an attempt to destroy my credit. Dr. Namus in town is so much more reasonable, caring and compassionate, and this guy could learn a lot from him regarding how to treat people. (I also called recently just to check on his practice partner, but now their fines for missed appointments are up to $75-100 - money grubbing greedy jerks).

I was referred to Dr. Jadi after I had severe abdominal pain. Luckily I didn't have to deal with him for long as I was then referred to a oncologist in Hamilton. However, I knew from the beginning that I not comfortable with this doctor. He is ignorant, rude and didn't seem to genuinely care. After reading some of these comments I am glad I didn't have to deal with him. I am disgusted at some of the things he did. This should not be allowed in the health profession when your mandate is to help people.

Horrible experience. I was referred to Dr. Jadi because of uterine pain. After he did my examination he told me that it was all in my head and that I was essentially making it up, or that I had endured some sort of sexual abuse, which I had told him several times never happened. It took me 6 years later to finally get a diagnosis. One that took the specialist all of 3 minutes to discover. Dr. Jadi was rude, unprofessional, not personable, and offered no signs that he was actually interested in what I had to say or cared. Worst health care experience I have ever had. I would never recommend him and have told my female friends to stay away from his clinic.

Dr. Jadi delivered my first baby. I was young and naive and assumed he was a professional and do what was best. I went into labour very quickly and had my daughter within 45 minutes of arriving at Guelph General. Dr. Jadi was just leaving the building to go home when the nurses called him. I did not have an epidural or any pain meds due to my quick labour.... And for some reason he ordered the nurses to put in a catheter even though I was 9cm (he said he didn't want me to pee on him when I pushed). He also did an episiotomy immediately before even allowing me to push. He cut me so deep and far. He "accidentally" cut my labis in half too, which never healed despite all his stitching he did, with no freezing or pain meds. I screamed in agony as he stitched me, his cut was so much worse than giving birth. I still have problems with my episiotomy scar tissue and severed labia. I have had 3 babies since, all quick and natural births one with a midwife, one delivered by a nurse (doctor didn't get there fast enough) and one with a family doc who just happened to be there. Now that I realize what a birth is supposed to be like, I realize how awful Dr. Jadi was. Dr. Jadi also yelled at me when I came to my follow up appointment with him because I was still bleeding and he said I wasted his time coming when I was bleeding. He also refused to give me a birth control prescription telling me to go to a walk in clinic as I didn't have a family doctor. I wish I would have known how terrible he could be, but as said, I was young and trusting. Now every time I've had a pap or had my other babies I get asked about my labia and why it's in two pieces on the one side. My current family doctor said she was disgusted by what he did, she said he "mutilated" me. ANC it was all because he was headed home and didn't want my first born to take up too much of his time, he was supposed to be "off duty" at 7:00, I showed up at 6:50 and I had her 7:31.

This is the best doctor I've ever been to. Explains everything you need to know and gives you a lot of confidence. I had all my pre-natal and gave birth to my son via c-section, he was present all the time and helped a lot to make me feel comfortable. Great doctor, no wait at his office as well, they do know how to respect a patient. I only have great things to talk about them and will always be thankful

I can understand why some people gave Dr Jadi not so great reviews. He was my Dr throughout my pregnancy with my first baby. His clinic is very busy and sometimes appointments were on time, sometimes late. Dr Jadi didn't always share a ton of information but answered questions when asked. At the time, I found this to be upsetting but in hind sight he was a good Dr. As a first time Mom, I was worried about every little thing but ultimately had a fairly uneventful pregnancy and that is exactly how he treated it. He did warm up a bit later in my pregnancy. The nurses at ggh all had positive comments on his skills as a physician. He was not on call to deliver my baby but visited us the next day. I will likely ask to be referred to Dr Jadi for my next pregnancy. Bottom line- his bedside manner may be lacking but I was in good hands and he didn't cause me to worry unnecessarily.

I do not know what all of the fuss is about. I was referred to Dr Jadi because of an ovarian cyst. He was always professional and on time. He recently surgically removed my cyst and was nothing but wonderful. I would recommend this dr to anyone.

California Employers Must Provide Paid Sick Leave Starting Next Year
September 11, 2014 - 10:09 AM
By: Robin E. Largent
As expected, yesterday Governor Brown signed the paid sick leave bill (AB 1522) into law, making California the second state to mandate that employers provide paid sick leave to their employees (Connecticut was the first). This means that starting in July 2015, California employers generally will have to provide their employees with at least 3...

The Bay Area Commuter Benefits Program, SB 1339, was enacted in 2012 to allow two local Bay Area agencies—the Metropolitan Transportation Commission and the Bay Area Air Quality Management District—to jointly adopt a commuter benefit ordinance requiring employers to offer commuter benefits to covered employees.

Open Enrollment Approaching: Should We Be Concerned About Health Reforms?
November 7, 2011 - 2:31 PM
By: Mark S. Spring
Many employers are about to embark on the annual open enrollment period where they modify their health benefits (or at least consider doing so) and undergo the process of enrolling employees for the 2012 calendar year. Certain provisions of Obamacare (officially known as the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act or "PPACA" for short), have...

Is Sabbatical a Form of Vested Vacation Benefits?

Employers who offer paid sabbaticals to their long-term employees probably should not be sued, but apparently they are not immune. In Paton v. Advanced Micro Devices, Inc., the plaintiff resigned his employment with AMD and then brought a class action against AMD alleging that the company failed to pay out earned but unused sabbatical pay....

Carol storms into Jackass's office. Jackass notes that Carol's got her arms crossed and is fixing a cold stare on him. He determines that she's pissed about something, and he wants to know what it is. She informs him that Warren Cheswick has them tongue-wrestling on video and is threatening to show it to the entire school. Jackass chuckles. Carol wants to know why he's laughing; he says he wasn't laughing, he was chuckling. God. I noticed it, why can't she? Jackass wants to know why she even cares about everyone seeing the tape. He says he thinks it's because she doesn't want to commit to their relationship and has issues about their relationship. Well, jeezum crow, Jackass...maybe she has issues that stem from the time you brought a date to a party the night after you first tagged Carol's ass. Carol tells Jackass that he's the one who has issues, and he points out that it's very convenient for her to blame him. He says that, deep down, Carol doesn't really know for sure whether he's good or bad. And she doesn't want to go public with their relationship because of her doubts about the king of Jackasses. Jackass points out that even HE doesn't know if he's good or bad. Getting fed up with his mumbo jumbo, Carol makes like an exorcist and gets the hell out of Jackass's office.
Kenny and Phil are reading the paper. Kenny asks Phil if he's ever seen The Vagina Monologues. Phil asks if that's the one where the Playmates band together and start a car wash. Kenny says it's not a movie, it's a play, and that it's powerful stuff. Phil admits that live theater doesn't interest him because the actors talk too loud. Jennifer shows up looking for Ed. Phil recognizes her as the random-guy kisser, and says he's a pretty random guy himself. One time he did it on a ferris wheel. Ed walks up and whisks Jennifer away before Phil can permanently damage her. Phil stares at Jennifer's butt and says, "She digs me." Kenny chimes in, "I find you obnoxious."
Warren and Diane are eating at the Goat. Diane tells Warren that they HAVE to show the tape of Jackass and Carol doing it like crazed welfare recipients in the parking lot. Warren freaks out and starts loudly saying, "I WILL! I WILL!" Man. Pencil a Mr. Warren Cheswick in for a nervous breakdown, pronto. Warren then tries to tell Diane that Carol is freaking out about this tape and wonders if the tape will get her fired since Jackass has the temper of a jungle cat. Diane says it's Warren's call as to whether they're going to show the tape or not. Then she spouts off some First Amendment malarkey that bored me for a few seconds so I took an extremely quick power nap. When I awake, Diane's still prattling on about First Amendment rights; she tells Warren that their rights to tell the story are more important than some teacher's hanky panky with the principal. Warren wonders aloud whether he should wear a helmet when he goes to see Principal Jackass over this, just in case Jackass goes Jackie Chan on his ass.

Survey says: Big banks approve only 14.3% of NC small-biz loan applications
- Adam O'Daniel
- Finance Editor- Charlotte Business Journal
- Email | Twitter | Google+
Small-business borrowers in North Carolina are getting loans applications approved at a lower rate than the national average, according to one survey.
And large banks in the state are approving less than 15% of the applications they receive from small businesses.
Nevertheless, the results of the Biz2Credit Small Business Lending Index show business owners are getting approved for credit at the highest levels since the recession.
The Biz2Credit survey of 1,000 small-business loan applications nationwide in January showed borrowers applying at lenders with more than $10 billion in assets were approved for credit 17.8% of the time. Borrowers applying at community lenders, with less than $10 billion in assets, were approved 50.9% of the time. Both are new highs.
In North Carolina, by comparison, big-bank approval rates of small-business loans in January measured 14.3%. Small bank approval rates were 49.6%. Credit unions in North Carolina approved 42.7% of funding requests, Biz2Credit says.
"Big banks, which request proof of three years of profitability, are now receiving applications from companies whose fortunes increased from 2011-2013," Chief Executive Rohit Arora says in a statement. "The increase in popularity over the last month in SBA lending accounts for the rise in approval rates at small banks."
Meanwhile, Biz2Credit's survey says nationwide approval rates at credit unions dipped to an all-time low of 43.4% in January from 43.9% in November. Approval rates by credit unions have declined in 16 of the last 20 months, according to the survey.
Alternative lenders and institutional lenders continue to have the highest approval rates, with alternative lenders approving 64% and institutional lenders, such as family funds, insurance companies and other non-bank institutions approving 56.5% of applications.

A Defense Department official has been tapped to serve as General Services Administration's new commissioner for the Public Buildings Service.
Dorothy Robyn was named to the role Sept. 4. She previously oversaw the controversial Defense Base Closure and Realignment process and served as deputy undersecretary of defense for installations and environment.
Before her government career, Robyn was a principal with The Brattle Group, an economic consulting firm that focuses on competition and antitrust, energy and the environment. Prior to that, she served on the White House staff as special assistant to the president for economic policy and as senior staff member of the White House National Economic Council.
Robyn replaces Linda Chero, who took on an acting role in April when then-PBS Commissioner Robert Peck was fired for his involvement in the conference-spending scandal.
Citing an internal memo from GSA Acting Administrator Dan Tangherlini, The Washington Post reports that Tangherlini expressed intent to get rid of PBS board of directors to crystallize Robyn's authority and responsibility.

Who am I?
This little clemie species I think, was given to me a few years back as a seedling. It's one you cut to the ground each year and it grows like wildfire, and yes it does seed itself all over the place if you don't cut it back soon enough, but I love it's dainty little flowers.
Anyone know which one it is? Heres a picture of it reaching out trying to swallow the door of the greenhouse that I leave open all summer.
Roseberri, I think you're right, or it's darn close. The shape of the flower and color is very close to mine. Looking on the web I've seen two different ones claiming to be Viticella, one more a blue shade, the other had reddish tones. Different cameras, different light? Is yours a rampant grower? I cut mine to the ground each year and by July it's up and trying to smother everything in sight :).
yes, Annette,
mine is young but it has always scrambled to the top of the arbor(9 ft.)it is supposed to get 10 to 16 feet. It seems to be a tough little cookie! Does yours bloom all summer ? Mine has stopped now and I trimmed it back hoping for rebloom but not sure it will do this. Cant remember about it's habits last year.
roseberri, mine definitely covers a large area easily 14-16 feet. I've had for a good number of years, still full of flower but seedpods also. it wanders through 2 roses, a rambler and a D.A. climbing rose. It also reaches out and rambles through my raspberry bed LOL.

Winnipeg Free Press - ONLINE EDITION
Stoughton team stunned in Brier final
EDMONTON — The way Brad Jacobs and his Northern Ontario team were playing here the last few days, Jeff Stoughton probably wasn't going to beat him in the Brier final anyway.
But then the game started and Stoughton promptly — and personally — removed all doubt.
In a world of uncertainty where death, taxes and Joe Mack's refusal to sign free agents are the only constants, one of the few other things we've always been able to count on as Winnipeggers is that our man Stoughton would always rise to the biggest moments of his sport.
In 15 Canadian and Manitoba men's curling finals heading into Sunday night, Stoughton had been beaten just twice — once in 2009 at the Brier when an unbeaten Kevin Martin team simply steamrolled him, and then another time in the Manitoba final in 2004 when Brent Scales won on a fluke.
Aside from that — money.
Until last night. If you're interested, you probably already watched the game on TV Sunday night, so there's no need to belabour the ugly details behind Northern Ontario's historic 11-4 victory over Stoughton, other than to point out he missed his first four shots — two in the first end and two in the second end — to gift the best-hitting team in Canada a 3-0 lead on steals and a stranglehold on the game.
Manitoba briefly showed signs of life with a deuce in the third end, but Jacobs pulled the plug on the patient for good in the fourth end. After Stoughton sailed a draw attempt through the house on his first rock, then came up a little heavy on a freeze attempt with his second, Jacobs seized the opportunity to win the Brier immediately and played a difficult pick of a lone Manitoba stone in the house to put a 3 and a 6-2 lead up on the board.
Lights out.
"When you get a little behind and you have to make some really good shots and it just doesn't happen, it's disappointing," said Stoughton, who shot just 63 per cent through the critical first four ends. "I'm disappointed just because the crowd came here to see a great game and we certainly didn't give them a great game."
Unless, of course, you were a fan of Northern Ontario.
How unlikely was Northern Ontario's win here last night? Consider:
❚ Last night's Canadian men's curling title was the first for Northern Ontario since 1985.
❚ Northern Ontario became just the second team ever to win a Brier championship after qualifying through the 3 vs. 4 game, winning their last six games in a row to do it — including over the defending world champions from Ontario in the semifinal earlier Sunday.
❚ At age 27, Sault Ste. Marie's Jacobs became the youngest skip to win the Brier since Martin won his first Brier in 1991 at age 24. Jacobs wasn't even born the last time Northern Ontario won.
"We played amazing through these whole playoffs. We were the underdogs the whole way, we never had hammer and to come out and do what we did is just phenomenal," said Jacobs, who was supported by third Ryan Fry, second E.J. Harnden and lead Ryan Harnden.
So what's the bright side in all this for Manitoba curling fans? Well, for starters, Manitoba wasn't entirely shut out last night — Fry is a Winnipeg native with the tuckiest of all Manitoba tuck deliveries, and last night's win adds a Brier Tankard to the family mantel to go with the one his old man, Barry, won for Manitoba back in 1979.
"It's a dream come true," said Fry, who jumped into the stands after the game to hug his parents. "It's been my dream since I was a little kid, watching him, and to actually fulfil it now is unreal."
There's also some solace to be drawn from the fact Manitoba teams competed in all four major Canadian curling finals this year — junior men's and men's, junior women's and women's — although there's also no escaping the fact only Matt Dunstone, who picked up bronze over the weekend at the world juniors, actually hoisted a Canadian trophy in triumph.
Aside from that? Well, it's really more eastern Manitoba than Northern Ontario anyway, right
And that's the thing about the Brier, isn't it — there really is no second place. There's a little cash for making the final — both teams get $40,000 — but that's nothing compared to the $144,000 in tax-free Sport Canada funding over the next two years, another $40,000 for training and competition expenses and a $10,000 cresting fee the Jacobs team now picks up.
In the end, Stoughton and company — third Jon Mead, second Reid Carruthers and lead Mark Nichols — probably got what they earned last night.
They were good over the past week, but never great. They lost two of their last three round-robin games and almost lost a huge game Friday night to a B.C. team that had only one win all week. And they also got lucky in the 1 vs. 2 game on Saturday when Ontario's Glenn Howard decided in the 10th end he absolutely, positively couldn't live another moment without playing the only shot that could beat himself.
Good? Sure, Stoughton teams are always good. But great? Not this year — and especially not last night.
