Popularity of Paritala Ravindra remains intact
ANANTAPUR: The inaugural session of the Telugu Desam Party's two-day extended general body meeting of the district unit here on Friday proved that popularity of party's slain leader Paritala Ravindra was still intact. Response from party workers was overwhelming whenever his name was mentioned by speakers.
Party workers' response peaked when the widow of Paritala Ravindra and Penukonda legislator Paritala Sunita rose to speak. Party legislators -- P. Keshav, P. Ranganayakulu, B.C. Govindappa, M. Govinda Reddy and G. Jayalaxmamma -- former MPs K. Srinivasulu, B.K. Parthasarathi and K.M. Saifullahand others spoke. They charged the Government with failing to fulfil the promises made to people, particularly to farmers.

The Republican Party is widely predicted to win control of the Senate as a result of today's midterm elections.

Boston Celtics Hire Butler's Brad Stevens As Their New Head Coach
The 36-year-old wunderkind will be the 17th coach in franchise history.
Hey, what do you know! In a stunning pre-holiday announcement, the Boston Celtics announced that 36-year-old Butler coach Brad Stevens, who guided the school to the 2010 and 2011 national championship games, will be the team's next head coach.
What will Stevens bring to a Celtics franchise that just traded away its biggest stars last week? His teams in college were known for being in excellent shape and playing smart, unselfish ball. Of course, not many of Stevens' fellow NBA coaches got their jobs by teaching players how to be fat and stupid, so it remains to be seen how he'll do at the higher level of competition.
In any case, Stevens' exasperation game is already at elite levels.

How am i supposed to get up in elo if I get feeders, there should be a way to not loose as much elo with a voting system from enimies... so they can say that people who played ok dont loose as much elo or something.. or a report for good players so we can get ahead even tho the ****ing trolls i had a darius feed a nidalle 0/20/2 we asked him to play more passive he continued to feed everyone reported him but we still loose the elo which is **** considering we still done ok like how is that possibly fair and this isnt the odd ocasion it happens atleast once a day cmon riot d0 something about it or atleast ban them forever
cmon plz people post
Junior Member
LOL raising elo is totally depends on your luck, once your team grabbed a feeder, just surrender at 20 and saving more time for next match (gambling)
^^^ it is actualy BS we need some sort of system that allows people to retain some elo if they get trolled im not talking bout semi feeder or avergae **** player u can carry im talking bout a bloody boulder that ruins ur game either from dc or extrenuius feed and not not loose any elo just retain some like loose a bit less

Marvel's 'Guardians of the Galaxy' Director Draws Heat for Controversial Superhero Article
A blog post written by James Gunn -- the filmmaker handpicked by Disney-owned Marvel Studios to rewrite and direct its upcoming superhero blockbuster Guardians of the Galaxy -- has been removed from the Internet amid building outrage over comments in it perceived to be sexist and homophobic.
Posted originally to jamesgunn.com, Gunn's official website, on Feb. 17, 2011, the story titled "The 50 Superheroes You Most Want to Have Sex With: 2nd Annual Poll Results" has since gone missing from the site but continues to exist on Google cache.
PHOTOS: New Generation of Superheroes
The list was voted upon by Twitter and Facebook users -- Gunn thanks The Office star Rainn Wilson for getting the word out via's the actor's Twitter page -- with each entry receiving a short, graphic blurb.
Gunn targets several of the male superheroes on the list with homophobic language and slurs, calling No. 5, X-Men's Gambit, a "Cajun fruit," before graphically describing a sex act he would perform on the character to satisfy a girlfriend's fantasy -- but the thought "makes me sick to my stomach."
Of Iron Man alter ego Tony Stark, Gunn writes, "I'd ask him … to lose the current prison pussy and go back to the 'stache." Elektra, Marvel's ninja assassin, he hopes "will give you a really terrific, Ninja-trained blow job." He writes of X-Men's Kitty Pryde, "I wanted to anally do her," and of 15-year-old X-Men character X-23, "after you fictionally f--- her, fictional police are going to arrest you and put you in fictional jail for being a very real pedophile."
STORY: James Gunn Confirms 'Guardians of the Galaxy' Directorial Gig for Marvel
He says he hopes for a Marvel-DC crossover so that Tony Stark "can 'turn' " lesbian character Batwoman straight, then says she "could also have sex with Nightwing and probably still be technically considered a lesbian." Nightwing is the superhero alter ego adopted by Dick Grayson after he abandons his Robin guise.
About The Flash, Gunn writes that many of the votes came from gay men. "I have no idea why this is," Gunn writes. "But I do know if I was going to get f---ed in the butt, I too would want it to be by someone who would get it over with quick."
The post has drawn harsh criticism online. TheMarySue.com, a website devoted to "girl geek culture," has railed against the list, lambasting Gunn for "slut-shaming (on only the female characters) and anti-gay language that Gunn directs towards the majority of the male characters." Elsewhere, a petition on Change.org to have Gunn removed from Guardians of the Galaxy has gathered 3,100 signatures and counting.
Marvel Studios had no comment. Attempts to reach Gunn were not immediately answered.
UPDATE: A second Gunn-authored post, "The 15 Superheroes I Most Want to Have Sex With," published one week after the first had gone up, has also been taken down. A version still resides on Google cache.

As I confessed a few days ago, I used to be a diet junkie. I have tried Sugar Busters, South Beach, Atkins, Weight Watchers, The Master Cleanse, 3-Day Juice Cleanses and the list goes on.
Before my health coaching days, I kept searching for the magic bullet diet that would help me finally take the weight off.
As I tried each diet, without success, I kept thinking, "What's wrong with me? Am I not exercising enough? Do I not have enough will power?" I would lose a few pounds and then gain them right back. I became obsessed with Weight Watchers Points, to the point where I did not want to go out to eat or to anyone's home because I would not know exactly how many points I would consume.
One night, I sat at the kitchen table in front of a beautiful meal that I had cooked. As I counted my calories, I realized that I could only eat a very small portion of this delicious and healthy meal.
After eating my allotted portion, I stared at my empty plate. I was still starving, and on the verge of tears. I love food and all this dieting was zapping my joy for one of my most favorite things.
I was supposed to be enjoying a night with my family, but all I could think about was how hungry I was. So sad!
I would go to bed hungry hoping that the scale would budge in the morning. Only to wake up disappointed that discouraged that I had not lost weight. I had not quite figured out that the # on the scale did not determine my beauty or worth.
I hated dieting, but more than that, I hated my body.
What I didn't know at the time is that food sensitivities were actually causing me to hold onto weight.
I found a way out of the diet madness, through a detox program that reduced inflammation and bloating. I had always had digestive issues and reached out for help. I am so happy I did because it turned my life around and has led to me not only solve my eating and weight loss issues but has helped my clients lose weight too.
As you know, I am a huge fan of Dr. Hyman and his books The Ultra Simple Diet and The Blood Sugar Solution. Dr. Hyman is a Functional Medicine doctor which means he seeks to identify and address the root causes of disease, and views the body as one integrated system, not a collection of independent organs divided up by medical specialties. It treats the whole system, not just the symptoms. He was one of the teachers that I studied with at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition and whose philosophy resonated with me. One of the first things I do with new clients is move them toward an anti-inflammatory diet. Which is what this Detox is ALL About.
"If you don't address inflammation by eliminating hidden food allergens or sensitivities and by eating an anti-inflammatory diet, you will never succeed at effective and permanent weight loss."
- Dr. Mark Hymn

LNG – Who Cares?
You say you don't work on an LNG ship? You should care nevertheless. Just ten years ago, LNG Import terminals were being built and/or contemplated throughout the United States. Then, it was widely expected that Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) imports would account for a large percent of the energy consumption in the US. Fast forward 10 years and we find that industry has made a complete 180 degree turn around. Instead of the US being one of the world's greatest importers of LNG, it is more than likely that the United States will one way be one of the major exporters of this frigid liquid. This is due, in part, to the vast quantities of natural gas that can be released in the relatively new process of Hydraulic fracturing, a process of creating fissures in underground formations that allows natural gas to flow. The LNG industry in the US will experience a slowdown as import facilities go through the approval process and are re-built to become export terminals. Many new export facilities are also planned. Attesting to this situation, a substantial list of export applicants can be viewed online at: http://energy.gov/sites/prod/files/2013/09/f2/LNG%20Export%20Summary_1.pdf. But what about the title of this article? If you work in the marine industry and are not directly involved in the import or export of LNG

iris borer, what to do with soil
lotodig(z6Mid Tenn)May 20, 2010
I have dug up and disposed of a large clump of older Irises and of course when I did I found signs of Iris Bores.
here's my question, what do I need to do to the SOIL where the irises were planted that would make it safe to replant more Irises? I read here on this forum to pour dishwater on the spot but I don't understand what is in dishwater (beside soap)that may be effective or why not just mix up big buckets of soapy water and use that for treatment?
This fall I intend to use the blowtorch treatment and next spring I will use Merit earlier. I used it this spring but I must have waited too long for it to be effective
Thanks for any information

Cranberry Jalapeno Jam
Hi all,
I'm reading the recipe that came inside the Sure Jell powdered pectin box for:
Hot Pepper Relish:
4 cups of prepared peppers (which calls for approx. 2 med green bell peppers, 3 medium red peppers, 10 large jalapeno peppers)
1 cup cider vinegar
5 cups sugar
Can I substitute half of the prepared peppers with 2 cups of cranberries?
So instead the recipe would read:
2 cups prepared peppers (I would use approx 2.5 bell peppers & 4 jalapenos)
2 cups dried cranberries
1 cup cider vinegar
5 cups sugar
Thank you!
I wouldn't see a problem with fresh cranberries but I have doubts about dried. Dried cranberries will suck up every bit of that vinegar and you'll still have a very dry mixture with (probably) pH and density issues.
So if you can find fresh cranberries that would be much better. Or re-constitute dried ones and measure out 2 cups of the re-constituted berries.
Fresh cranberries have so much pectin I don't even think you'd need the Sure-Jell. How about something like a chutney or "salsa", that might be the consistency you're looking for? I don't see any recipes in Joy of Pickling, but maybe Small Batch (I don't have a copy)?
How about this "Cranberry Salsa" from NCHFP?
Spicy Cranberry Salsa
* 6 cups chopped red onion
* 4 finely chopped large Serrano peppers*
* 1 1/2 cups water
* 1 1/2 cups cider vinegar (5%)
* 1 tablespoon canning salt
* 1 1/3 cups sugar
* 6 tablespoons clover honey
* 12 cups (2 3/4 pounds) rinsed, fresh whole cranberries
*Caution: Wear plastic or rubber gloves and do not touch your face while handling or cutting hot peppers. If you do not wear gloves, wash hands thoroughly with soap and water before touching your face or eyes.
Yield: About 6 pint jars.
Please read Using Boiling Water Canners before beginning. If this is your first time canning, it is recommended that you read Principles of Home Canning.
1. Wash and rinse 6 pint canning jars; keep hot until ready to use. Prepare lids according to manufacturer's directions.
2. Combine all ingredients except cranberries in a large Dutch oven. Bring to a boil over high heat; reduce heat slightly and boil gently for 5 minutes.
3. Add cranberries, reduce heat slightly and simmer mixture for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent scorching.
4. Fill the hot mixture into clean, hot pint jars, leaving 1/4-inch headspace. Leave saucepot over low heat while filling jars. Remove air bubbles and adjust headspace if needed. Wipe rims of jars with a dampened clean paper towel; apply two-piece metal canning lids.
5. Process in a boiling water canner according to the recommendations in Table 1. Let cool, undisturbed, 12-24 hours and check for seals.
Table 1. Recommended process time for Spicy Cranberry Salsa in a boiling-water canner.
Process Time at Altitudes of
Style of Pack Jar Size 0 - 1,000 ft 1,001 - 6,000 ft Above 6,000 ft
Hot Half-pints or Pints 10 min 15 20
Thank you for all the advice and recipes.
I ended up making the first batch with the dried cranberries since I had them and they were the organic non sweetened cranberries that were a lot softer than Craisins; I just soaked them.
I bought some fresh cranberries and other ingredients to make a second batch from a recipe I found on this forum....Habanero Cranberry Jelly. I want to try the Habanero Gold one of these days too.
Thank you all again and happy holidays!
This recipe came from a post in 2009....
Here's what the post said with the recipe:
'I�d be happy to share the recipe. I will state however that it is not a 'tested canning' recipe (ie. from a food lab). It is a customized version of a similar tested recipe and has been vetted by some of the experts over on the Harvest Forum. Here you go.'
Habanero Cranberry Jelly
3/4 cup cider vinegar
3/4 cup white vinegar
2 cups 100% unsweetened cranberry juice
1/2 cup finely diced habanero pepper *
1/2 cup finely diced red onion *
1 3/4 cups fresh cranberries, coarsely chopped
1 pkg liquid pectin
5 cups sugar
*note: you can adjust the heat by increasing or decreasing the pepper to onion ratio as long as you adhere to 1 cup total pepper and onion.
Finely dice peppers and onion and coarsely chop cranberries
In a large sauce pan, combine cranberries, pepper, onion, vinegars, and juice
Bring to a boil and reduce heat to low
Simmer 15 � 20 minutes to allow flavors to blend and to soften up cranberries
Add sugar and return to a hard boil for 1 minute
Remove from heat and stir liquid pectin in well
Add jelly to hot sterilized jars
Wipe rim of jars with a clean damp towel
Position lids as per usual instructions
Process in a hot water bath for 10 minutes
Remove jars and allow them to cool
During the cooling, periodically 'gently' invert jars to distribute solids.
Yield 7 or 8 - 250ml (1 cup) jars

Artisan: Ríos Family
Jose Antonio Ríos and his family have been dedicated to the traditional art of carving and embossing leather furniture for several generations. This activity was embraced by Jose Antonio's grandparents, with the same devotion and caring dedication, using the same technique to produce hand-crafted items bearing their own unique touch. Jose Antonio Ríos says:
"For us, embossing leather is a family tradition. My father inherited it from his father, and handed it down to us. Today, my family and I are proudly following the traditions, incorporating contemporary learnings and designs we are ready to face new challenges. Our creations are totally handmade. After sketching the figures, the piece is embossed with chisel and hammer. We use several types of chisels depending on the intricacy of the motifs. Then, the embossed leather is placed on the furniture piece, simultaneously prepared. Later, works are finished with a mixture of walnut stain and ink, carefully matching the wood color. Furniture pieces are made from cedar and mahogany wood, carefully selected and treated. We are certain that, having been made with so much love and quality, our work will be a proud ambassador of the Peruvian culture and traditions to the world."

5th and 15th .99 margaritas. salsa perfectly balanced. food good not great. will go again. service was great.
The Mexican food is average but value priced. Love the green sauce and chips! We sometimes just pick it up to go! Service is usually great.
Good food. Fun atmosphere and good service. Just can't beat that. Manager hosted a car show for us and we wanted to give back. Group of 12 and all went well.
i like this restuarant most because you can choose your sauce for your enchiladas service was bad for long time. wouldnt visit but last few times been good at the bellmead rest. but always very good here.
This Mexican food place served delicious food and had friendly staff as well. The dish I had was chicken enchilades with cilantro sauce...yummy! Our waitress was new and shy and was a fast learner...the waiter who helped her through the ropes was great.
Food was consistent with other Casa Ole. Service was good. I would recommend this restaurant for an affordable, moderately priced meal.
The food is the worst and with all the viruses going around, they let everyone share the same dipping bowl! How disgusting! The drinks were worse than the food and the service is a joke!
Has a very wide variety on the menu. Food is always fairly good and service is usually very good. Prices are very reasonable.
The chips are good however the green dip is terrific. Avocado with sour cream really was the hit of the meal. The food however is nothing to be excited about. Had the Stuffed Chicken - chicken with a spinach stuffing. Way too much cheese on top of the chicken, had to scrape it off to eat the chicken. The rice... More
Our waitress was awesome - she was very attentive to us and our little girl. Brought out the little ones food first so she wouldn't get restless. Also, our food was great! Would definitely dine there again!

Emerson first revealed that it ended its association in discussions with Walden Asset Management, which has engaged the corporation over its affiliation with ALEC. An Emerson spokesperson confirmed this to CMD, but refused to provide further details about the reason for its decision or precisely when the relationship ended.
If ALEC were an honest broker, it would recommend market-based solutions, like the Republican-inspired, acid rain cap-and-trade program championed by President George H.W. Bush. But that's not likely going to happen, because doing so would alienate its fossil fuel industry and trade association members.
The new liberal counterpart will be named the State Innovation Exchange, or "SiX." Creative capitalization seems to be their first innovation. But I shouldn't get snarky about their branding, because the basic idea is a good one: counterbalance the impressive inroads Republicans have made in state legislatures.
The Koch-brothers-funded Americans for Prosperity spearheaded a letter claiming that 117 organizations oppose reviving wind-energy tax breaks that expired at the end of 2013. The Energy and Policy Institute discovered that a majority of the groups have ties to the Koch brothers or other fossil-fuel interests.

Bullfrog Kisses ffo, rebloomers and lates on Thursday
I was very anxious to see the first blooms on BULLFROG KISSES this morning. I got up shortly after 5:30 a.m. to get ready to photograph. And there it was - all open flat and looking near perfect. When I received the new plant from Watermill Gardens this spring, the scapes had been removed, so this is rebloom for the Bullfrog. I'm definitely smitten.
WONDER OF ALL on rebloom was open all flat and pretty too!
SACRED GROUND reblooming and my purple coneflower had sort of a color echo going.
AUTUMN JEWELS is blooming nicely. Here's a foursome of blooms close together. Last night I discovered a rebloom scape on this late bloomer. I've had it seven years, and this is the first time ever I've gotten a rebloom scape on it.
BARACUDA BAY also had a foursome blooming.
WATSON PARK EYE's last bloom. (No, Chris it still hasn't increased. In fact I'm down to just one fan now and five flowers this year.)
APACHE WAR DANCE was brighter than bright.
TEARS OF LOVE, an older late by John Shooter
BEST FOR LAST, a new one from the Rices. This one looks so much better later in the day when it recurves somewhat and ruffles even more. It looked good at the end of a 97-degree day yesterday! I tried to photograph it last night, but the bloom was blown out in my pictures. The scapes have 14-15 buds.
Oh gosh they are all fabulous, especially APACHE WAR DANCE. I just love that saturated color. But BULLFROG KISSES is my favorite as I just love the dramatic color contrast. And that photo is just fabulous!!!
No way would I ever get up at 5:30 AM or anywhere near that, daylilies blooming or hot. You must be a morning person.
Rita - I'm absolutely NOT a morning person. I just knew it was going to be very hot very quickly today, so I wanted to be inside by 10:30. I got up photographed, potted a couple of daylilies and watered areas I didn't get to last night. Then I had to go get a vehicle inspection and my new car license tags. It was a busy morning, and I'm chillin' now near the air conditioner.
Debra, we're on the same schedule. I get up earlier and earlier to get photos before the sun's too bright, but then the flowers aren't open enough to photograph.
I'm also smitten with Bullfrog Kisses. Watermill Gardens is Trimmer's right? I should have known . . . . One of these days I'm just going to have to take a chance.
Isn't in frustrating to have a beautiful bloom on a plant that doesn't perform? I appreciate the info on Watson Park Eyes. I think even if I found it, I'd be very hesitant to add it to the garden based on its performance for you.
Flowergirl - Autumn Jewels and and Desperado Love do have flowers that are similar colors. Both are descended from El Desperado. I grow all three because I like that color combo. AJ and DL have different shaped blooms, different sized blooms, different scape heights, and different bloom times. AJ has a 6-inch bloom on 40-inch scapes and is a late bloomer. DL has a 5-inch bloom on 26-inch scapes (it's 29 inches here) and blooms midseason.
Chris - Mantis is right. Bullfrog Kisses was hybridized by Frank Smith. The Trimmers have a general listing with newer daylilies hybridized by others on it. I wanted to add more Frank Smith daylilies because I've had such good luck with American Doll and I Remember You. So I bought Bullfrog Kisses and Patsy Cline from Watermill, along with four of Trimmers intros because the prices were the best I could find on the Smiths.
WOW!! What some beauties today.They are all gorgeous. MY all time favorite one is WONDER OF IT ALL :) then next is APACHE WAR DANCE. and BARACUDA BAY., and AUTUMN JEWELS. If WONDER OF IT ALL had not been one of them, then APACHE WAR DANCE would have ben my favorite with BARACUDA BAY as second best.Just too many beauties in a bunch :)
HA HA DEBRA. You know I have to pick WONDER OF IT ALL as my very favorite.It had opened flat here at 70 degrees, too,and even at 66 degrees, just took a little longer to open fla, I guess till it warmed up to 70. I do love that APACHE WAR DANCE a lot too.
Thanks Linda! Watson Park Eyes has been growing in a pot too long. It's planted with another daylily, and I've lost track of which is which until they bloom. By the time they do bloom, it's too hot to plant and Watson Park Eyes subsequently goes dormant. This year I've put it in the shade. I hope I can find a place to plant it in the ground in late summer or fall. It has a very unique look and did have 15 buds the first year I had it.
Wowee...you have some pretties here! They all look great and my favorite is Apache War Dance for it's sensational color. That one was already on my wish list, where it now has top billing.
I have both Baracuda Bay and Tears of Love...they will be brand-new for me when they bloom and I see scapes so I'm excited.

While 17-year-old Matias Cartenas may attend Liceo del Aplicación, one of the most prestigious high schools in Chile, he does not let that fact deter him from speaking up on behalf of others. Cartenas is one of many high school students protesting for national education reform. For more than seven months, students have occupied their campuses, led countrywide strikes and marched through Santiago in crowds as big as 100,000.
One of their chief concerns is inequality in the education system, which was put in place during the military dictatorship of Gen. Augusto Pinochet in the 1980s. The system prevents anyone from the lower class from receiving a true education, thus barring the nation's poor students from advancing to better careers, better wages and a higher standard of living. Furthermore, high schools receive varying amounts of resources from the municipalities and those amounts are based on attendance. Thus, many rural schools receive far less funding and provide fewer resources for its students.
After 21 years of a "democracy," Chileans are demanding for real representation at the education table. Some are also calling for a new Constitution, which was also put in place during Pinochet and has remained—even after the military man lost his amnesty and was tried in court for crimes against humanity. Now the education movement has grown so big that parents, professors and unions are all involved. The issue is now on the mind of every Chilean, including the tens of thousands participating in this November 5 march.

In Brazil, With A Syntax Question? Telephone Operators Are Standing By
In many U.S. cities, if you have a question about, say, parking permits or air quality or health department violations, you can dial 3-1-1.
When I lived in New York City, I marveled at how efficiently the system put me in touch with someone who knew how to answer the most esoteric question.
This morning, I stumbled on an Associated Press story about another ingenious telephone service:
Fumbling for the right word? Stumped by syntax? Trying to figure out just what syntax means? Help is just a phone call away — at least if you live in Rio de Janeiro.
The Brazilian state's government has created a grammar telephone hot line.
According to the wire service, eight language professors will man the phones on weekdays, answering "questions about topics such as spelling, accents and agreement of verbs in Portuguese."
