Tony Tyler's remarks at AVSEC World, which took place in Washington, on 27 October
Aviation is a catalyst for growth, a vital conduit for world trade, and a major global employer. Nearly 58 million jobs and $2.4 trillion in global GDP are supported by aviation. With these benefits comes an impact on the environment.
IATA's goal is to ensure proportionate and coherent environmental policies are implemented by governments around the world to support the sector's sustainability and allow environmental improvements to be achieved in a cost-effective manner. IATA works on mitigating the environmental impacts of air transport both at global level and at local level:
Our action includes:
IATA's Environment Committee (ENCOM) advises IATA on environmental policies and strategy.
IATA has several programs to assist airlines in improving their environmental performance and is working on several initiatives on Cargo Sustainability. Additionally, IATA offers courses on aviation and the environment.

America's Strangest Taxes
Drive Images / Alamy
Air Tax, Pennsylvania
We swear this tax wasn't implemented on April Fool's Day. In the Keystone State, coin-operated vacuum vending machines are indeed subject to a "use" tax. So if you like to keep a clean car—or can't wrap your head around paying a tax on oxygen and nitrogen—it makes sense to exit Pennsylvania before taking yours to the car wash.

When working with Mr. O'Connor, have your case information and evidence ready. If you have those things prepared, he will do the rest to win your case. He has excellent relations with all the players in the Houston court system and even lawyers you will be going against. My case ended going to mediation, but without his strong relations and knowledge, it would have been more painful. As a bonus, you will find him to be a good man and very personable; rare in my thoughts for a lawyer.
Michael is the most knowledgeable attorney in the area of family law that I have had the pleasure to know. Michael, has always been honest with me in telling me the truth about my case and he can be agressive when I needed him to defend me against opposing counsel. I would highly recomend Michael to anyone who needs a family law attorney.

If there is a site that explains all the iris terminology used here, please direct me there.
The only one I know is TBI - tall bearded iris. The rest - I am lost.
Thank you!
Ha ha- I was so lost when I first started visiting this site! I remember now how many abbreviations and terms I was confounded by. Here's a page below with the classifications of the irises. Do you know the parts of the flower? That helps too- to know the difference between the falls and the standards etc. See this page here: http://lfrazer.com/iris/faqirisparts.html
And the colors? Amoenas have white standards, selfs are all one color, plicatas are sort of outlined, neglectas are two-toned blues and variegatas have yellow standards and reddish falls. I'll try to remember to put all of that info down when I post photos.
happy reading!

Weekly Weigh-in Week of 10/25/09
Hello, everybody.
The results from last week's weigh-in were as follows.
Harold - Weight 193, lost 3, total lost 82
Eklektos - Weight 138.5, lost 1, total lost 13.5
Jasmi - Weight 132.2, lost 0.6, total lost 15.6
Ivamae - Weight 168, lost 1, total lost 24
Marita - just joined, no weigh-in yet.
This week's result for me
Weight 194, gained 1, total lost 81.
Average Calories - Food 2016, exercise 264, steps 11618
Hi Harold... 80+ pounds is a big number . Are you using pedometer to count your steps?
My weight was 131.4 this morning . I was hoping to get to 125 by mid Nov. I am disappointed to see that's not going to happen .Anyway, if I can lose atleast 2 pounds by then, that would be great. I wanted to speed up my weight loss. So started on my squatting cd again on Sunday. I felt so good while working out but from next morning I could not walk with out limping :-)
Hope all you guys had good week.
Glad to hear where you can buy a pedometer.
I'm thrilled to weigh this morning and see that I have lost 2 more pounds. That is a shock as my calorie count was up a few days this week to around 1300 or a bit more. I'm happy, very happy, if I lose a pound a week. I'm now at 166. Although, I would like to weigh about 145, I will be extrememly happy with anything under 150.
The thing that is so great, is that I don't feel deprived, except I would like the odd muffin. I'm afraid I would be like the alcholic who took just one drink. I doubt if I could have just 1 muffin, so best I leave them alone for now.
This group has been a real inspiration for me. Thanks, Harold, and all the best to the rest of the group.
Hi everyone! Just popping in. Things have been hectic. Seriously need to look into buying another bicycle.
I'm at 138, so I lost two pounds. All I did was lay off the cheese. I'm a serious cheese addict. Still comfortable, but would like to get back down to 130.
I'm so happy to see that everyone is doing so well!!!!!!!!!! Congratulations to you all :)
I'm back to 137. This was a good week for me, even though I ate a little more on Sunday than I should have. I still made very good progress. I am really optimistic at this point that this will finally be the week I make it below 137. I've been bouncing around 137--139 for months now.
Journaling what I eat is key for me. Next time I stop writing stuff down, I want all of you to give me a good, hard, cyber kick in the pants. Out of sight is out of mind, and when I don't see how much I'm consuming, I don't restrain myself like I should. 1300 calories max per day of the right foods is where I need to stay to lose, and that is totally doable as long as I keep track. It is also low enough that a few extra nibbles here or there really can push me far enough over the top to start gaining again.
Congrats to jasmi, ivamae, and ss for their losses this week too. Jasmi, I know how squats hurt. Good for you that you do them. Harold, you're amazing. Keep up the good work.
Onward and downward...
Ivamae, you're doing great. Don't get too excited about the 2 pounds, though, and don't get discouraged if it goes the other direction next week. That's something we all learn - your weight will go up and down sometimes. If I were you, I'd go ahead and have a cupcake every once in a while, but just one. Too many people deprive themselves, then one day they give in to temptation and go on a binge. Pretty soon, they've fallen off the wagon. That's what the experts all say, anyway.
Silver and Eklektos, glad to see everybody checking in, and doing well.
Good Morning,
It is good to hear that everyone is doing well.
Harold, if I don't get busy you will be zooming down past me so fast I'll get vertigo! I'm going to Walmart today and will try to find a pedometer while I'm there. Maybe that will get me out of this LONG holding pattern I've been in.
I miss the time I spent here. But, right now life is soooo busy. I have been to a Dr's office 11 times this month. Most of those were taking Aunt B. Twice was for Son(sinus)and me(ear infection/shingles).
3 times with Aunt B I was also treated for either ear infections or shingles or both. Stress city here!
I am trying to find an affordable sitter for Aunt B that can come in at least a couple of times a week so I can escape and have some ME time. It would be HEAVEN and I could at least go walking.
If the new meds don't start helping more with the dementia/Alhziemers we will have to give in and find a nursing home. She has started to get mean (not physical yet) and since I'm her primary caretaker, I'm on the receiving end of her verbal wrath.
My body is responding to the stress by getting sick and staying sick. The DR has already told me I can't do this much longer. The end of the tunnel is coming, but I can't quite see the light yet.
Weight-wise I am at least satisfied that I'm still under 160 this week. Food temptations are strong and the only exercise I get is running around trying to keep house, do laundry, errands, etc. I have felt so crappy,health-wise, that I haven't taken the time to prepare healthy alternative snacks and meals for myself. I just do what I have to do to get something that everyone else will eat on the table so I can get the kitchen clean and fall into bed.
I have enjoyed trying a few new recipes, but most aren't exactly what you would call healthy... LOL... I always go into a cooking/baking mode when fall arrives.
The only good thing about that is, I take a lot of it to my sick neighbor. DH, DS(who never gets full), and Aunt B clean up the rest pretty quickly!
I know this post is long and sounds really negative. I don't want it to BE negative. I love her and will never regret this time I've been able to keep her out of a nursing home and spoil her a bit. She never had kids and loves it when the Gkids are here. We've had some great laughs and, as much as her health and dementia will allow, she has been very happy since we brought her here in June. The day she has to leave will be a sad, bittersweet, day.
I've been so busy that if I've checked in here at all it has been very short. Y'all are my cyber family and I just wanted you to know that I AM GOING TO LOSE SOME MORE WEIGHT and to take a minute to sort of fill in the blanks of this LONG STALL.
I was 159 when I weighed this week. No loss, but no gain either. For that I am thankful.
Keep up the good work, everyone. It gives me hope.

A monthly survey of rural bankers showed no change in March. The overall economic index registered 59.6 again this month, and any score above 50 suggests the economy will grow.

Best way to clear out a neglected wooded area?
Well, after 1.5 years of killing off the invasive poison ivy and japanese honeysuckle and saplings and numerous unnamed varieties of brush in our 1/4 acre of woods, I find myself unable to figure out a good way to clear all the waste out. It's fenced in so there's such a great option to create a garden hideaway, yet I feel overwhelmed when 3 lawn bags (what I try to clear every weekend) of debris hardly even makes a dent in the mess. At this rate, the woods will be ready for planting when we're living in a new home.
So is there some sort of machinery I can rent that will push or pick or lift this stuff up? The property on the other side of the fence is ours and I'm not opposed to simply lifting and dumping over the other side (even if my husband is, heh). If I can't lift it, what the heck would I do with it after it's pushed out?
Please tell me this isn't a hopeless case. I would love to make the woods a pretty place to visit.
most of it will compost away, why not just leave on the ground as mulch? You could rent a chipper and chip the woody stuff (avoid poison ivy) then spread the chips on the ground.
I would also suggest getting a field guide to shrubs and tree and trying to identify the unknown brush. Some of them may be native plants worth keeping.
Finally, consider creating a woodland garden that resembles a real forest with multiple small plants and leaf/twig/plant litter on the ground as mulch. The soil will be better if mulched and the mulch will prevent weed seeds from gaining hold. Bare soil is a invitation to weed seeds.
Thanks for the reply. I neglected to mention that the ground right now is a lumpy mess of pine needles and cones from all the fir trees (which I don't mind) covering all sorts of debris that has been tossed back there over the decades. My husband and the previous owners used the wooded area as a place to toss old christmas trees or grass clippings, dead shrubs, you get the picture... It's also lumpy from clumps of clay that were dug up from other areas of our property and dumped back there.
In my clearing, I've discovered a pair of pants, leftover lumber from the construstruction of our subdivision, dozens of beer bottles and cans, several cinder blocks, plastic tubing that went on for yards and yards (finally threw that in the trash!)...
I guess that's more of what I was looking for in help with clearing out the area. It would be so nice to have a natural looking yard without the fear of tripping over an invisible stump or getting caught on a prickly vine. All of the fallen trees will remain along with as much of the pine needles and leaves. I'm just flustered over the number of invasive weeds that require constant spraying to keep down.
Sorry for the awfully long posts.
Check out the responses to my question about Debris Reduction in the soil forum. I have a very similar problem.
Depending on budget you might want to rent or buy a chipper. If the budget is really big, pay someone else to do it.
What I ended up doing for the time-being is sacrificing some parts of the property to debris piles that I continuously add to. I also break up some debris by hand which makes a big improvement. The stuff in the trash bags could be left in the bags for several months and then dumped out again after it is good and rotten. If getting rid of invasives is your goal then bag up and dispose of anything bearing the seeds of the invasives. I let vines air dry to die and then break them up and toss the remains on the ground. The prickly stuff (like multiflora rose) can be left to dry out and then trampled on to break into small pieces.
Things do improve but it takes time.

The Twelve Art PrintPosted by: | Comments
Tomislav Tikulin lives in Croatia, which makes getting books or art prints signed a difficult and expensive proposition at best.
That said, he's been getting a lot of requests about his artwork for The Twelve, so he has decided to produce Signed Limited Edition Art Prints, which Cemetery Dance Publications is selling on his behalf while supplies last. These will ship to CD with the Gideon's Sword and Gideon's Corpse art prints.
Tomislav will ship all of the prints to CD in one big package next month and then Cemetery Dance will ship each print to customers who placed a preorder, which should save everyone a lot of money. (He's also investing in a more secure packing and shipping service to protect these art prints on their journey around the world!)
These prints will feature the FULL-WRAP cover artwork – the front AND the back cover – and they will be produced using photo archival ink on archival paper, which is perfect for the serious collector. These will be signed by the artist, who is printing them personally, and the cost is just $24.95 per print while supplies last!
You can preorder here: The Twelve Art Print
Show Us Your Tentacles: A Lovecraft Art MemePosted by: | Comments
Tor.com is running a piece on the artwork inspired by the work of Lovecraft. It's very cool art, accompanied by each artist's perspective on Lovecraft and the piece they created. Matt Buck, Mike Mignola, Michael Whelan, Joel Harlow, Cyril van der Haegen, Stephen Hickman, John Jude Palencar, Jason Van Hollander, Viktor Koen, and many many others share their work. Here's how it starts out…
It doesn't take looking at too many portfolios before you realize artists love tackling Cthulhu's tentacled madness. Back in 2009, being then a newbie to the Old Ones, I asked a bunch of artist friends: Just what is it about Cthulhu and Co. that makes drawing, painting, and sculpting from Lovecraft so much … fun? (If fun is the right world?)
On today, H. P. Lovecraft's 122nd birthday, hear what Michael Whelan, John Jude Palencar, Mike Mignola, Bob Eggleton, and others have to say on the topic. And then add your own! Post any Lovecraftian or tentaclian inspired art (doodles by non artists count, maybe even more so) in the comment section—horrify your friends, worry your love ones….

The Art of Abraham Lincoln: Vampire HunterPosted by: | Comments
In connection with the summer release of the 20th Century Fox motion picture Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, renowned director Timur Bekmambetov, in association with Aspen Comics, will be releasing The Art of Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter deluxe edition hardcover book. The film, directed by Bekmambetov and produced by him along with Tim Burton and Jim Lemley, will be released domestically on June 22nd.
The Art of Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter will contain 128 pages of never-before-seen storyboards, conceptual art, and production illustrations. Bekmambetov discusses the film and the accompanying art book's release:
"Our visual team, led by Bazelevs's storyboard artist Indar Dzhendubaev, created a rich and exciting world for the movie. In revisiting their art, we tried to craft a book that pushes the envelope of visual design and does justice to their great work. I am very happy that fans will finally get to enjoy the expanded world of Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter."
Bekmambetov's production company Bazelevs has teamed up with Aspen MLT, Inc. to produce The Art of Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. David Wohl, who is overseeing the project as editor, divulged more about the behind-the-scenes book:
"Timur's attention to detail and vision for the project, combined with the exquisite artwork for the film in the hands of Aspen's designers, has created an "art-of" book that is truly unique and visually spectacular. It's been a pleasure to be part of this one-of-a-kind project."
The Art of Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter will be in stores in June.

An Interview With Artist Eric YorkPosted by: | Comments
Michael Vance's latest novel, Weird Horror Tales – Light's End, is being heralded as a page-turning suspense thriller. Often compared to the writings of H.P. Lovecraft, Vance's work is not for the faint of heart, featuring ten interior, outré illustrations by extraordinary artist Eric York who was recently interviewed by Richard Vasseur of Jazma On-line.
Vasseur: How did you meet Michael Vance?
York: Michael had reviewed my old comic Eldritch Pulp Adventure and contacted me a few years later to do some illustrations and book cover for some of his horror tales. Haven't actually met him in person.
Vasseur: Why did you decide you wanted to work on Weird Horror Tales: Light's End?
York: I enjoyed working on the earlier projects with him and like the creepy atmosphere of his Light's End setting. He asked me to illustrate the third volume of his Weird Horror Tales trilogy and I happily agreed.
Vasseur: What type of monsters do you get to draw in Weird Horror Tales: Light's End?
York: The only monster I got to draw was Vance's main antagonist, Jake Horne. The guy's pretty grotesque looking, and even worse on the inside. There's also a mermaid illustration, but she's not really a monster. The publisher, Airship 27, has talked to me about future projects which I hope contain lots of monstrosities. Drawing humans is fine, but I prefer to draw creatures (the weirder, the better).
Vasseur: How would you describe your art style?
York: It's influenced by late 19th/ early 20th Century decadent illustrators (Aubrey Beardsley, Harry Clarke), mid-20th Century pulp illustrators (Virgil Finlay, Hannes Bok, Lee Brown Coye), and various comic book artists from underground to mainstream. I mostly work in black and white, but have done color pieces in the past.
Vasseur: What do you think of Light's End the place?
York: I've always liked stories connected by a common locale and characters (such as Lovecraft's Arkham, Dunwich, Innsmouth, etc.). Light's End is another such place, full of dark secrets and sinister occupants.
Vasseur: What do you think of H.P. Lovecraft?
York: He made such a strong impact on my poor fragile nervous system when I was 11 or 12 that I'm still trying to shed his influence. He casts a very long shadow on contemporary weird fiction, art, film, etc. that it's almost impossible to get out from under his gaze. I've been referred to as a "Lovecraftian artist", which can be a mixed blessing. I'm obviously influenced by him but don't feel that my work is completely defined by his aesthetics.
Vasseur: Why should someone pick up your Eldrich Pulp Adventure?
York: If they like kooky underground comix, they'll probably like EPA. It's influenced by some of the old undergrounds like Skull, Slow Death and Twisted Tales. It's a bit transgressive in parts … definitely not for young kids. Michael Vance had this to say about it: "Wildly imaginative art, perverse sex, violence and profanity inspired by a man who would have abhorred it, horror master H.P. Lovecraft. Imagine Batman as a demon in Hell."
Vasseur: What is Maggot Global Publishing?
York: It's the name that I've published my various zines (The Hungry Maggot), comix (Tillinghast's Moribund Fairy-Tales, Eldritch Pulp Adventure), coloring books (Vermis Rex) and tarot decks (Erebus Tarot) under. It's been dormant for a few years, but I'm getting ready to publish again.
Vasseur: What is Zygote's Fables and will we see it published again?
York: Zygote's Fables was a weekly comic strip that I did for the local paper, Flag Live. I described them as horror stories disguised as nursery rhymes (they're all done in verse). I did it for three years before the editor realized that it probably wasn't the most appropriate thing for him to be printing in their respectable community paper. I'll do more in the future, but not for a paper and not on a weekly basis.
Vasseur: Why do you find playing bass is something you want to do?
York: Drawing only covers part of my creative impulse … I have several muses that compete for my attention. Right now I'm focusing on art, but I plan on devoting more time to music and writing in the coming year.
Vasseur: You like movies that are a little different, what are a couple of your favorites and why?
York: I generally go for dark fantasy and supernatural horror such as The City of Lost Children, Pan's Labyrinth, Naked Lunch, The Shining and director Tim Burton's work. I don't really like splatter flicks or torture porn type movies … not because I'm squeamish about gore, but because they're generally unimaginative and redundant.
Vasseur: Where can people see your artwork online?
York: I have about 700 pieces up at tillinghast23.deviantart.com. I have other sites that host my art, but my Deviant Art page is the one to go to.
Vasseur: How can someone contact you?
York: I can be contacted at:
and on Facebook under Reginald Braithwaite (Flagstaff, AZ)
Vasseur: Any last words for those who admire your art?
York: I appreciate any admiration … thanks for the interest!
The publisher of Weird Horror Tales: Light's End, Airship 27 publishes anthologies and novels in the pulp magazine tradition. In the past, Airship 27 has released Sherlock Holmes: Consulting Detective, Weird Horror Tales, and Weird Horror Tales: The Feasting.
IT: The Artwork PortfolioPosted by: | Comments
If you love artwork inspired by the works of Stephen King or you're a huge fan of IT, then Cemetery Dance Publications has a deal you won't be able to beat — IT Artwork Portfolio.
They've made special arrangements with Glen Orbik, Alan M. Clark, and Erin Wells to collect all of their artwork from the Cemetery Dance Publications upcoming 25th Anniversary Edition of IT by Stephen King into one giant artwork portfolio, which will be signed by all three artists and limited to a one-time printing of just 500 sets. These special artwork portfolios will never be reprinted or reissued.
Each piece of artwork — including the 6 interior color plates, the full-color cover artwork, all of the black & white interiors, plus Erin Wells' two pieces of color signature sheet artwork — will be printed on 11 inch by 14 inch sheets of 100# GPA Uncoated, Heavy Duty archival quality cover stock. These will be huge pieces of artwork, perfect for matting and framing if you wanted!
The portfolio is already in production at the same company that made the Blockade Billy Lettered Edition artwork portfolio, which was one of the most talked about features of that special edition. Not only will Cemetery Dance be using a similar high-quality material for the folder itself, but there will be one-color hot foil stamping on the front cover, too.
This is a one-time printing of this artwork portfolio and they will not be printing more. This set includes every piece of artwork in the book, including the two color signature sheets that will only ever be seen by the collectors who were lucky enough to snag a copy of the Limited Edition or Lettered Edition before they sold out. Plus there's a special, full-color signature sheet signed by all three artists.
The art prints are already finished at the printer and the signature sheets will be headed to the artists next week.
Here's where you can order: IT Artwork Portfolio
Dark Europe by April A. Taylor PhotographyPosted by: | Comments
From the Paris Catacombs to the Magnificent Seven cemeteries in London, Europe is filled with darkness. Many people do not realize, for example, that the city of Paris sits on top of a city of the dead. From the twisted mind of award winning, internationally published and exhibited horror photographer April A. Taylor comes a new series, entitled Dark Europe, which explores some of these real-life scenes of the macabre.
For this line of work, April A. Taylor left behind the illustrative horror photography world filled with fake blood, skilled models and fully realized storylines that is her calling card. Instead she utilized only what was already in place and the results have been deemed by some to be even more disturbing than her other horror works.
Taylor's blood-soaked and occasionally controversial pieces have been published and exhibited around the world in over 60 different books, magazines, art galleries, movies, etc. and was recently featured in Devanny Pinn's short horror film CathARTic. Her work has garnered praise from countless industry professionals, including Fangoria.com, TheBloodSprayer.com, actress Ashley C.Williams (The Human Centipede) and several cast members from the Nightmare on Elm Street films (Lisa Wilcox, Ken Sagoes, Mark Patton and Heather Langenkamp). She has also been making appearances as an artist guest at multiple conventions around the country (next up is Detroit FanFare in September, located in her hometown of Detroit, MI).
Step into a world of darkness by visiting April A. Taylor and to be one of the first to see further pieces of the Dark Europe line, which will continue to be released slowly over the next several weeks, be sure to "like" Taylor's Facebook page.

9 butterflies on a T-shirt.a photo made in the natural museum in Berlin in 2010
sold: 1 sticker
Every kid loves drawing, I just never stopped. 1 day my teacher in highschool told me I could go to an artschool because I was so good in all that artistic stuff. And so I did. I went to the artschool in Genk. It was a whole new world, for the first time I was completely in a world were art and drawing was important. It was so inspirational. Now I am studying at the St-Lucas in Gent for a bachelor. I still have 1 year to go. Than I can start working on my career as an professional illustrator.
Beautiful work! Well done~

Ok thanks. I might reduce the number of plants I ultimately look to grow to full size outside - I haven't got huge amounts of space, unfortunately. about 30 plants currently, I'll prob take out about 5 that look less sturdy and then give away another 10.
Apols, I know this question is often asked here, but... what final pot size would people recommend? I've got an array of indeterminates (Black Cherry, Sungold, G's Delight, Moneymaker). The biggest pots I've got currently are 15 litre but I've seen some recommend 20, even 25 litre. Is 15 litre enough or should I invest in some 20 litres, say? thank you!
V useful on the small pots tip, italophile - thank you! The fact they'll be in small pots fr longer, would you still pot up to an intermediate size pot before they go into their final large containers? I know potting up several times, burying part of the stem, is a good idea but if they're already v tall by the time they go into say 6" pots is there any point?
thanks bob, yeah think I will just hold on a bit longer. there are signs (famous last words!) of warmer weather from next week i just want to make sure they're not 'held bck' by being in small pots but guess so long as watered enough should be ok? until mrs bf really has enough of plants taking over the house
I've got about 30 plants (mix of Black Cherry, Gardeners Delight, Sungold, Moneymaker) grown from seed that were in modules, now in individual 3" pots, doing very well on various windowsills indoors. problem is that some of them are now about 30cm tall and clearly need repotting - but I had been hoping by the time that came they would be ready to put outside as I just do not have the room inside and only a small coldframe. Definitely not yet looking at the forecast! So, it seems to be a choice between keeping them in smaller pots for another few weeks, indoors. Or pot up but unleash the British summer on them...
So, my youngest took a dislike to one of my garlic plants today... since he pretty much broke the stem off (and I've got plenty) I thought I might just dig it up and see what's doing.
It basically looks just like a spring onion, with a purplish end but nothing really ressembling a bulb... I realise that's basically green garlic (smells nice and probably quite tasty!) but I'm now worried. Shouldn't my garlic (planted in November) be a bit further along by now? Or is it only in the last month or so that the bulbs form?
This isn't me getting too overexcited at the first prospects of spring, more that I may have planted my runner beans a bit too early. They're indoors, in 3" pots, but they're about 20-30cm tall already and the roots are beginning to creep out. It seems crazy to repot them though and I'd don't really have room indoors to put them if I do have them in bigger pots. I've got a coldframe that they could go in - although it's small and they're probably too big for that already!
It's surely too early to put them in the ground (although I'm in central London and temperatures are forecast to be 18C by sunday...) but I'm not sure what to do?
I'm a leek novice and as a result, hadn't really thought through the practicalities of growing them - I didn't realise they had such a long growing time
I've planted some seeds in modules, currently sitting in cold frame with nothing doing. Problem is, I assume I'm now not going to have any leeks ready until late autumn/early winter so I'm not sure I want them using up lots of my limited veggie plot all spring and summer!
If i put them into 3" pots once they germinate, how long could I leave them in there until putting them into the soil? Ie could I leave them grouped in pots until September when I'll have space freed up elsewhere??

Bahamas ready for trial in Travolta extortion case
Published: Thursday, April 16, 2009 at 6:20 p.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, April 16, 2009 at 6:20 p.m.
NASSAU, Bahamas - Prosecutors in the case of an alleged plot to extort $25 million from actor John Travolta after his son's death in the Bahamas say they are ready for trial.
Director of public prosecutions Bernard Turner says the island chain's government has collected all witness statements. The arraignment of the two defendants is scheduled for April 28.
Paramedic Tarino Lightbourne and former island Sen. Pleasant Bridgewater appeared in court for the pretrial hearing Thursday. Both are free on bail.
The pair are accused of demanding money in exchange for suppressing a document related to the treatment of the celebrity's son, Jett Travolta. The chronically ill teen died in January after he suffered a seizure at a family vacation home.

I have a Custom UITableCell Class, and a ViewController class for loading the UITableCell.
In the Controller:
- (void)viewDidLoad
CustomeCell *cell = (CustomeCell *)self.view;
The Custome Cell is loaded from .xib so I am trying to add a UIbutton to the cell by:
UIButton *customButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
customButton.frame = CGRectMake(270, 3, 40, 40);
customButton.backgroundColor = [UIColor blueColor];
[customButton setTitle:@"X";
//customButton.tag = 99999;
[customButton addTarget:self action:@selector(delete:) forControlEvents: UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[cell.contentView addSubview:customButton];
and in the same controller class I have:
- (void)delete:(UIButton *)sender
NSLog(@"doing something");
but on click of the button I got this error message: [CellViewController performSelector:withObject:withObject:]: message sent to deallocated instance 0x1197a280 [Switching to process 4598 thread 0x15203] Current language: auto; currently objective-c
What did I do wrong? How to get rid of this error message?

Whats wrong with Phillis now? Arrowhead Vine
I was examining Phyllis a minute ago for vine growth and I saw one of her leaves yellowing and some yellow deposits on the soil. What the heck?
The potting medium looks pretty bad, tiff; very peaty/mucky. You might be keeping it overly moist, something that is very common with newbies and overnurturers. ;-) Peaty mediums can be quite a challenge, even for very experienced growers. It looks like a crust has formed on the surface. If that's the case, be SURE to keep the surface lightly scratched up...a fork works well for this job. That will allow moisture (and other gases that accumulate in the soil) to evaporate from the soil and fresh air to move in.
The yellow stuff is probably just an algae. At least that's what I 'think' I'm looking at.
Agree, rhizo. I've had plants develop this stuff on the soil surface before. It was when the pot didn't have a drain hole, was staying moist too long, and/or hadn't been repotted for many years. Not always great at remembering, but thought all of your plants had been repotted recently, Tiff?
