For a few hundred dollars they will uncover what repairs you will need to live in the house. I rehab houses for a living and trust me, the worse the condition, the better the price and the repairs are cheaper than you think. You can have a really nice house worth about double what you put into it, if you're willing to put 2 months worth of work into it.
I'm sure that you've been seeing this quiet often these days. Bank Owned Property are houses that have been foreclosed, and the bank nows owns the property. These houses are empty, and the bank usually turns off the power and the water, and has it winterized. Many of these homes have their windows and doors boarded up.
'As Is' means that house is sold in the shape it is in and the buyer has no bargaining leverage to try to reduce bid if problems and damage are found by home inspector. The buyer also has no recourse if unforseen problems pop up after she buys the house.
The advantage to buying these homes are that they could be priced at the bottom of market value and these homes usually have clear title.
Please call me, Robert, at VIP Real Estate, 718-967-2600 x312 or email:email@example.com with any other questions.
This is a good time to buy a home, whether foreclosed or not, especially if your a first time home buyer.
Good Luck

Baby giant sequoia in winter
I have a baby giant sequoia that I haven't watered in months. I had another one that died of root rot. I was told by someone that I should not water them in the winter because it's too cold, but I'm keeping the plants indoors. It's not hot inside but it's not cold either - about 60F but i'm not sure since it's next to a window and a heater as well. I checked the plant and it seems to be doing fine, with only a few needles on the bottom turning brown, but I don't know if the plant can survive the whole winter and spring without water. A few branches seem to be slightly browning. I attached a picture. It's not old at all, less than a year. What should I do? Leave it alone? Water it lightly? Put it in a warm spot with light and water it? Thanks for the help.
all those words.. and you didnt tell us the result of inserting your finger.. and whether the media has any ambient moisture in it ..
why are you limited to the bipolar dichotomy of drowning it.. or trying to grow it in a desert???
forced air heat...or not ... whats the humidity in the house???
i appears happy where it is.. though growing horizontally for some reason .. lol .. why in the world would you move it for watering purpose???? you are concerned about the variable called 'water' .. so you are thinking.. hmmm.. i will change location.. light.. and temp as well... that is called loving it to death ... dont do that.. lets stick with water ... for now ...
give it two tablespoons of water ... and walk away .. why.. i dont know.. mostly because i dont think their native habitat is arid .... it definitely needs some moisture.. and not as much as you gave to the one that root rotted ... find a happy middle ...
most of us tree peeps.. will say.. trees dont grow in the house... long term ... you might want to get some diverse opinion.. in the houseplant forum .... or try the GW search engine ...
good luck ...
60 is far too warm for a Sequoia in winter. Ideally, Sequoia seedlings are buried under several feet of snow for most of the winter, which is exactly what happens in their native habitat. Barring that, an unheated garage could suffice. Though, it will require acclimatization given its been 60 so far.
It seems to me that Sequoias around here are better planted outdoors when they have some size, enough to get them to some really strong growth within a few years at most. Otherwise bacterial infections like Cercospora and Kabatina can wipe them out during your typically humid summers.
hi boredsuburban,
My suggestion would be to water your seedling until water comes out the drain hole. You shouldn't have to water it again for a few weeks. Definitely keep it away from the heater and keep an eye on it for mites.
How far are you from Morris Plains NJ? There is a beauty there at the Frelinghuysen Arboretum linked below.
This pic is of a 15' Giant Sequoia at Baltimore's Cylburn Arboretum. I'm not sure about the brown branches, but otherwise it looks fine.
Here is a link that might be useful: Frelinghuysen Arboretum
Yes, I don't know why this is being treated as some tender tropical. It is not...regardless of the actual species (which has not been identified). You are overheating it, and under watering it in my opinion. This is not some dainty, hothouse, tropical houseplant ...needs to be outdoors...in the ground. The only Sequoia that is marginal in NJ is the Coast Red...and even this one is being grown in certain areas (but not in houses).
The bigger issue with either of the two California redwood/sequoias - the summer humidity + heat combo does a number on them.
Sam_md, I'll have to stop at Cylburn sometime - I'm impressed that Sequoia looks that (relatively) good down here. I've never seen a healthy one in the East to speak of any bigger than a few feet. I've seen larger ones, but they always have a lot of dead spots in them.
FWIW I don't think your little baby tree would have any issue surviving outdoors in a Long Island winter. Being in a pot might throw it off a bit, but mounding some leaves or mulch around it would probably be enough if your coldest weather is not accompanied by snowcover (which on Long Island can be hit or miss like it is here in MD).
I have 6 baby giant sequoia, water them every day as long as you have well drained soil. They love water, they just don't like soil that's not well drained. If the rootball ever dries out, they will die.
If they are outside, they still need water, just not as much.
I have grown Giant Sequoia (Sequoiadendron Giganteum) from seedlings smaller than yours, I have attached photos.
These trees love water, in the wild the big trees transpire over 500 gallons of water a day, but they take in thousands of gallons per day. It's true that the small ones get snow cover which protects them from browning, but after 3-4 years, they will stay green without snow cover. If you have cold winters, your Giant Sequoia will be fine, they grow in areas that do get below zero from time to time. However, if they are potted do not let the rootball freeze, that may kill them. Hot moist summers will not kill them, fallacy. These trees are among the most hardy of all trees on the planet, they live for thousands of years, they see lots of different weather. The one thing they have all year round is water, the water comes from mountains and seeps up from crevices and keeps the trees well watered no matter how hot or dry it is. The biggest problem with these trees in areas out of their normal habitat is lack of water. I water my potted trees 2-3 times a day in 90-100 degree humid heat, and every day otherwise. The biggest thing is they need excellent drainage, not lack of water. These do not grow like other evergreens, do not even compare.
These trees will lose some of the bright green in winter, and turn darker, not to worry that is normal. Once you plant the tree in the ground, they will grow past nearly any pest or fungus you can throw at them.

Here is a link that might be useful: Sequoia diseases
California has a Mediterranean precipitation regime, summers are dry. You wouldn't have to water your trees so much if they were not in clay pots. And the pot the larger one in the ground is in is too small.
We have the same climate as California up here except winters are colder than in lowland California, and we do not have the numerous hot days of southern California. Sierra redwoods growing in the ground do not have to be watered up here. In the metropolitan areas (Portland, Seattle) July precipitation is typically less than 1".
I took this pic yesterday. It is the original 'Hazel Smith' sequoia which is a popular blue form. The location is the former Watnong Nursery nr Parsippany NJ.
I don't think that the brown is normal and that bothers me.
Could this be Cercospora sequoiae, a fungus which attacks foliage of conifers? If so, how does one treat a tree of this size?
Here is an example of 'Hazel Smith' at the Swarthmore College in PA. From a distance it looks like the picture of health.
Up close is not looking good. I hope it is not infected with the same disease mentioned earlier.
Cercospora sequoiae is responsible for killing giant sequoias in the east. Several have been removed at Longwood Gardens including mature ones at the Eye of Water feature.
Just went on a trip to California to several Giant Sequoia Groves and those trees have browning like that also, but its from a lack of water due to the California drought, it was not enough snow melt. These trees take in massive amounts of water, in addition there is a possibility of some die off after Pennsylvania's cold winter last year. They are very cold tolerant trees, but do not see -12F very often and for as many days as the PA area had.
The big thing is that Giant Sequoia are not Coastal Redwoods - they are totally different when it comes to tolerating cold. Giant Sequoia are not tropical plants or even Mediterranean in climate, at one time they grew all over the world when it was a wetter climate. The places they grow in California are very unique in that they pick up vast amounts of water from seeping snow melt that bubble up throughout the year.
First, Swarthmore College is just west of Philly, the warmest place in the state. That area hasn't seen -12 since 1985. Last winter it barely got below 0 last winter. Most winters Philly struggles to get below 10.
Second, its clear from the images that the browning is on current growth, not something from previous years, so what's showing up as brown was not even around last winter to be damaged by the cold.
Third, the places in California are unique in that they are periodically swept by wildfire, providing mineral soil on which the seeds can germinate, while ALSO having plenty of subsurface moisture with which they can work with. Right now, Sequoias biggest threat in its native range is the lack of low intensity wildfire which is best at preparing seed beds for germination and growth.
They were doing controlled burning two years ago when I was visiting the Mariposa Grove in Yosemite and several years earlier when I was at the Calaveras Grove further north. There are very few young trees in both groves, hence the burning to get more started.
i am not sold on this moisture loving issue. as bboy pointed out above, they grow like weeds here in the pacNW on no supplemental water. 36 inches here in Portland annually, add all the hard surfaces and the storm water headed directly to the river, equivalent to less than that. During the summer, what little water we get (a few inches tops in 3 months), will barely penetrate a mature sequoia's canopy, and shed off into the sewers, on to nearby roofs then to the sewers, etc.
Also note, they drop an insane amount of those pointy annoying needles every year. my side yard is shoes only for a month or so over the summer.
Hi, I have a question about potential root rot treatment. I have a 10 inch seedling in a big pot. it was very healthy till about December, but started to loose coloration at the ends of the branches (they become dry and gray). Sometime in October I accidentally left it under rain with drainage plugs closed for a day, and it was "swimming" in the pot. I made an effort to dry it out, but it still took a few days.
Currently the soil is damp, with about an inch of dry on top. I have not watered it much over the last several months. It also have not seen a significant amount of sun over the last few months.
I'll send a picture in a few hours when I get home.
hi, famartin
I was keeping it inside, at around 60-65F. was putting it outside when it was not raining and above freezing. It was good till the middle of December, but the ends of branches started to dryout. My best guess would be root rot from October rain that took me 3-4 days to dryout. Currently I've replanted it in clean pot with new soil, so let's see if it survives.

landscape lighting
pat611August 30, 2012
I want to place a light in the crotch of our live oak tree to illuminate the branches at night but do not know what product to use.
I am trying to get one of my landscape lighting circuits onto a light sensor to have it start at sunset. However, it blew out the first one. I thought it was over loaded due to the fixtures being modified 120v, with 3 bulbs and aluminium wiring.
Any ideas on the cause and the fix.

Granny Pods.......
I probably should have posted this in the discussion below but didn't want it to get lost......Have any of you seen the new homes for aging parents? I think this is the greatest thing since sliced bread.....Of course some of the plans I looked at did get quite expensive but I'm sure it could be kept simple and the cost down.....Check them out and see what you think......I love them and hopefully will be planning to put one in my son's back yard.....
I have seen them advertised but I have slso seen one at a company that makes sheds! We were upstate New York, looking at possible sheds. One was actually a little house that could be used as a guest house or in law suite.
I agree that aging in place, if possible, is preferred.
This is something I started looking into seriously a few years ago. It was becoming apparent that my mom would not be able to live alone in her home long-term, so we started looking at the various possibilities for her. Retirement developments (Sun City, et al.) were just too expensive for what she wanted. And the rental communities are even worse. $3,000 a month for an apartment with formica counters and builder shag? Really? Just because you get two meals a day and there's a table at the end of the hall wher you can play bridge? Umm, no.
So we started looking at the idea of building her a little place on our property. I love the whole modern, prefab, small house movement. But the pricing is just crazy, way out of the ballpark for 85% of the country. If I bought my 2,000 square foot, 4/1.5 MCM home on three acres for about 200K, it's tough to imagine spending upwards of 100K for a small granny flat to put out back, KWIM? Especially when it likely would add only a fraction of that cost to the overall value of the property.
We found the most cost-effective solution (at least in our area, with our collective finances) was to buy an existing home, probably 1950-1970 vintage, with a walk-out basement that was either already set up as an apartment, or could easily be renovated into an apartment. We haven't taken that step yet, but at least we've done the homework.
They also have something called "Katrina Cottages" which can be built in the back yard. But, so many places require rezoning permissions for that.
The way that many folks get around it is to put the unit on skids or on wheels. If you do a storage shed on skids, you can place it closer to the property line than a permanent structure with a foundation. No building permit required, at least here in Mobile.
We seriously considered adding a single wide to our property at our last house for my Mom.We would have to get a permit to do so and when Mom passed then the second house had to go too. We were going to just hook it into out existing septic and water and electric. We had the perfect lay out on our property to do this.
We also found the perfect two story house. Each floor 1400 SQ FT a three and one on top and a one and one on the bottom with enough open space to build in another bedroom or two. Was a great place and I was really disappointed Mom decided not to leave her home in AZ. With the house we figured we would use the lower floor for live in help when it was no longer needed for my Mom.
The house was built into a slope so both levels had out side access with out stairs. We were going to put one of those chair elevator on the stairway inside for Mom when needed. We had it all figured out. Loved that place so much.
They make small manufactured homes for about 25 to 35 K. Our friend had one they lived in for a year or so. Was pretty nice.
they sell those small mfg homes out here for the snow birds.
they're maybe 500 sq ft. I went in one once to check it out. very nice.
check out the link. click on the one in the lower left corner.
Here is a link that might be useful: small home
shades - that would be better than the tiny ones I've seen out here. They don't (from my memory and the pic) give room that might be needed for a walker or wheel chair. The one you posted gives the basics needed with more open space.
I'm quoting from LifEdited newsletter here. It has a website mentioned for Auxiliary Dwelling Units (ADU in the trade now), and it is a great discussion source if you are deeply interested in this topic. I subscribe to the daily edition of this newsletter, but there is a weekly option for it too. It is of interest to small homes folks. Here is the quote. Look for the link in it.
"Not your grandma's ADU
ADU stands for Accessory Dwelling Unit and they might just be your next edited home. You might know ADUs by their other, quasi-affectionate names such as granny-flats, mother-in-law-apartments and so on. They are dwellings, either attached or detached from a main house, that exist on a lot with another house. Many ADUs are built above garages such as the one pictured above.[note: not included]
ADUs have myriad benefits such as:
-- Creating a secondary rental income.
-- Increasing the occupancy of a given plot of land.
-- Creating more communal living, while still providing autonomy and privacy for both homes.
-- People who may have once needed a large home--e.g. parents whose children have moved out--can move into the ADU and rent out the main home.
ADUs are not lean-tos; they are real homes that require building permits and some investment. A great resource is accessorydwellings.org, which goes into the ins-and-outs of ADU construction, financing, zoning for every state and other issues. SEE AND READ ON

"I am only what I think I am , and at that, I think I am nothing less normal in this make-believe world. That which is your reality is not mine and for that, I take joy. For I am unique!" This was today's FaceBook Words Of the WisdomLess quote. When you think about it, it kind of makes sense. Well, maybe as much sense as my cartoons for mental health humor do. Like this OCD cartoon, I call it my Obsessive-compulsive disorder To Do List. I drew this back in April 2008 after talking to my Wife's cousin about OCD.
Cartoons and drawing is a great way to bring a little humor in my life. When I AM depressed I draw depression cartoons.

NBC's American Odyssey attempts to woo viewers who have given up on the networks for cable but it misses its mark.
The video of 2014's memorable "Remembering Roger" panel at Ebertfest.
"The Public Eye" contains a couple of great juicy movie performances. They're from Joe Pesci and Barbara Hershey, playing New York City fringe-dwellers who try to make a living from the kinds of people who come out after dark. They also fall in love, I think. You may think differently. They're the kind of people who should ask themselves, "Am I really in love, or does it just feel so good when I stop hitting myself over the head with this pistol butt?" It's the 1940s. Pesci plays a guy named Bernzy, who is a free-lance photographer for the tabloids. He cruises the night in a souped-up coupe with a police radio under the dash and a darkroom in the trunk. He takes pictures of mobsters, politicians, crooks, gamblers, cops and ladies who ain't no ladies. A lot of these people are dead when they sit for their portraits. When Bernzy sells a picture to the Daily News, they run a credit line that says "Photo by the Great Bernzini." He takes his work seriously. Someday he wants to publish a book of his photos. He thinks ordinary pictures of ordinary people can be art. Bernzy reminds me of Weegee, the great New York street photographer who also took pictures of the disreputable and the unlovely and thought his work was art. They laughed at him, but check out his prices in the galleries.
Bernzy is the perpetual outsider. His relationships are all through the view-finder. One night Kay Levitz (Hershey) asks him for a favor. She runs a nightclub she inherited from her husband, who was old when she married him and dead shortly after. There are people who think she married him to get the club. Now they want the club, but they don't want to marry her. They want to muscle her out. Kay thinks maybe Bernzy can give her some advice, help her out.
He is willing to try. He is willing, despite his lifetime policy: "Don't get involved." Writer-director Howard Franklin is subtle and touching in the way he modulates the key passages between Pesci and Hershey. There is a lot that goes unsaid between them. We can maybe guess from Bernzy's eyes and actions how he feels about her, but he never tells her. He keeps his distance. He can maybe hope she feels the same way. She plays it close.
The movie surrounds them with a gallery of colorful nighttime characters - vice detectives, rival photographers, mob bosses, broken-down critics who mourn the bad novels they never wrote. The photography occupies the beloved territory of film noir: night, wet streets, cars with running boards, dames with low necklines, guys with diamond pinky rings, empty marble newspaper lobbies, guns, highballs, furnished apartments. This was an era when the good guys smoked cigars and the bad guys smoked cigarettes.
One of the best things about the movie is the way it shows us how seriously Bernzy takes his work. He doesn't talk about it. He does it, with that cigar stuck in his mug, leading the way with the big, ungainly Speed Graphic with the glass flashbulbs. In the movie's big scene of a mob assassination, he stares death in the face to get a great picture. He doesn't even seem especially noble. It's what he bred himself to do. At one point he is asked to turn off the police radio in his car, and he says, "It doesn't turn off." This is his philosophy of life.
The plot of the movie advances the story on the surface, while the romance develops in an unacknowledged subterranean fashion.
Everything leads up to a moment when Bernzy turns his head away from her and says, "You have no idea what I would have done for you." This is the best kind of love - unrequited. There are moments in "The Public Eye" that made me think a little about "Casablanca", especially the earlier scenes when Bogart is still mad at Bergman.
Higher praise is not necessary.

Some children who are accurately diagnosed in early childhood with autism lose the symptoms and the diagnosis as they grow older, a study supported by the National Institutes of Health has confirmed. The research team made the finding by carefully documenting a prior diagnosis of autism in a small group of school-age children and young adults with no current symptoms of the disorder.
The report is the first of a series that will probe more deeply into the nature of the change in these children's status. Having been diagnosed at one time with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD), these young people now appear to be on par with typically developing peers. The study team is continuing to analyze data on changes in brain function in these children and whether they have subtle residual social deficits. The team is also reviewing records on the types of interventions the children received, and to what extent they may have played a role in the transition.
"Although the diagnosis of autism is not usually lost over time, the findings suggest that there is a very wide range of possible outcomes," said NIMH Director Thomas R. Insel, M.D. "For an individual child, the outcome may be knowable only with time and after some years of intervention. Subsequent reports from this study should tell us more about the nature of autism and the role of therapy and other factors in the long term outcome for these children."
The study, led by Deborah Fein, Ph.D., at the University of Connecticut, Storrs, recruited 34 optimal outcome children, who had received a diagnosis of autism in early life and were now reportedly functioning no differently than their mainstream peers. For comparison, the 34 children were matched by age, sex, and nonverbal IQ with 44 children with high-functioning autism, and 34 typically developing peers. Participants ranged in age from 8 to 21 years old.
Prior studies had examined the possibility of a loss of diagnosis, but questions remained regarding the accuracy of the initial diagnosis, and whether children who ultimately appeared similar to their mainstream peers initially had a relatively mild form of autism. In this study, early diagnostic reports by clinicians with expertise in autism diagnosis were reviewed by the investigators. As a second step to ensure accuracy, a diagnostic expert, without knowledge of the child's current status, reviewed reports in which the earlier diagnosis had been deleted. The results suggested that children in the optimal outcome group had milder social deficits than the high functioning autism group in early childhood, but had other symptoms, related to communication and repetitive behavior, that were as severe as in the latter group.
The investigators evaluated the current status of the children using standard cognitive and observational tests and parent questionnaires. The optimal outcome children had to be in regular education classrooms with no special education services aimed at autism. They now showed no signs of problems with language, face recognition, communication, and social interaction.
This study cannot provide information on what percentage of children diagnosed with ASD might eventually lose the symptoms. Study investigators have collected a variety of information on the children, including structural and functional brain imaging data, psychiatric outcomes, and information on the therapies that the children received. Analysis of those data, which will be reported in subsequent papers, may shed light on questions such as whether the changes in diagnosis resulted from a normalizing of brain function, or if these children's brains were able to compensate for autism-related difficulties. The verbal IQs of the optimal outcome children were slightly higher than those with high functioning autism. Additional study may reveal whether IQ may have been a factor in the transition they made.
"All children with ASD are capable of making progress with intensive therapy, but with our current state of knowledge most do not achieve the kind of optimal outcome that we are studying," said Dr. Fein. "Our hope is that further research will help us better understand the mechanisms of change so that each child can have the best possible life."

Respond to Review of Coco's Cafe
by Posi Britt
Review: I was finishing my open water scuba certification and needed something to eat after diving all day. I was terrified of being able to find something vegan. This place was awesome! Super helpful staff, things on menu listed as vegan, and fund creative food. I was shocked that Jasper had something like this. Very grateful though. Check it out!

On 4/8/10 my battery was dead. I was able to jump start the car and had the battery rechareged and checked out at Merchant's Tire. The battery showed no defects and held a charge. On 6/5/10, the battery died again. I took the car to my Chevy dealer and they were 98% sure that it was an alternator problem, so I told them to put in a new alternator on 6/10/10. The battery was recharged, checked and showed no defects. On 6/25/10, the engine barely turned over. It was the battery problem again. It appears that something is draining the battery, when the ignition is off. Any ideas on what might be draining my battery, when the ignition is off. The car has 28,000 miles.

U.S.A Resource Solutions are not only a scum company who just takes your money and throws you to the wolves leaving you with no job placement help, but they've also lost a contract with Heartbeat security training in the Bronx for not paying for their services to certify people. It's hard to reach anybody by phone and they have moved from their location at 31 E.32nd streett, New York, NY 10016. If this company calls you don't respond to them at all just hang up.

I closed my eyes and listened to the squad car's engine run. I liked fixing cars because there's always a right answer if you pay attention. My dad used to say, "An engine problem comes down to a simple matter of fuel, air, and fire." Of course, these days, there's a lot of software added into the mix, but that's pretty black and white as well. Sometimes, I wish people came with manuals.

Hi, I'm sure you all have seen a keezer build before but I want to put mine on the site for every one to see. I have some wood working skills but by far am no expert. I received a lot of the items on the cheap(kenmore 6 foot freezer for 50 bucks via Craigslist)cubic or free(2-5 gallons sanke kegs and couplers)and I have close to $500 into the build. Once I add the gas supply and two more ball lock kegs I will have close to 650 into the whole project and no need to bottle my home brew anymore. Only steps left is to paint each tap handle a different color and create a matching caulk board to hang over keezer so friends and family will know what's on tap. I put a two wat gas supply in I case I want two run two stouts off beer gas and a four way I case I want to run 4 on co2 or split it 1: 3 or 2:2. Just trying to plan head of what I may have brewed at any one given time.
Enjoy the pictures.

Word of mouth (March/April 2015)
The politics behind Trinidad's Good Friday bobolees, Guyana's Rupununi Rodeo, and the wrongs and rights of Jamaica Carnival.
The politics behind Trinidad's Good Friday bobolees, Guyana's Rupununi Rodeo, and the wrongs and rights of Jamaica Carnival.
A combination of neglect and commercial redevelopment has endangered Trinidad and Tobago's unique architectural heritage for decades. But as Erline Andrews discovers, a handful of private individuals have bucked the trend, investing in restoration projects that give old buildings new life.
A booming spoken-word movement has revitalised Trinidad and Tobago's poetry scene with fresh ideas and hard-hitting lyrics from a new generation of poet-performers. Nazma Muller finds out what's driving this surge of talent, and profiles eight popular new voices.
Across the Caribbean, the freshest produce, best bargains, and often the friendliest advice can still be found at traditional markets. Here are six worth exploring, ranging from Dominica to Curaçao to French Guiana.
Melanie Abrahams, London-based literary promoter, on her mixed Caribbean heritage, and using literature to negotiate identity — as told to Joshua Surtees.
Many observers agree that in today's Carnival the most memorable spectacles happen in "kiddies' mas." And bandleader Rosalind Gabriel has been at the forefront for over two decades. Nazma Muller meets the innovator with a taste for tradition.
The 2013 hit "Differentology" was his international breakthrough, but Trinidadian soca star Bunji Garlin is no overnight success. Laura Dowrich looks back at Bunji's rise from the pavements of Arima to the world stage, while Mark Lyndersay offers a personal take on the twenty-year evolution of the artiste's sound.
In Trinidad, the traditional sound of Christmas is Spanish-inflected parang.
Trinidad's long east coast, stretching from Galera to Galeota, offers miles upon miles of sandy bays, picturesque villages, and vistas of coconut trees. And Helen Shair-Singh discovers you can explore it all in a day — pausing to take in the delights of scenery, conversation, browsing at local markets, and old-fashioned ice-cream.
Calypsonian the Mighty Sparrow may be pushing eighty, but he's still the "calypso king of the world" — as the new documentary The Glamour Boyz Again more than proves. Garry Steckles previews the film.

Web site software packages
Most of the software to design a web site are geared toward a small or large business. Then you have the one or two personal pages. I need one for mainly botanical type photos. There will be about 500 photos, thumbnails to go to full screen. I do get some space with my ISP but it is only 5MB and I will need much more. Can you reccommend software for a beginner. Here is what I have done so far on ZDNet SiteBuilder. Thanks for any help.
Here is a link that might be useful: The Oldrosarian
Hi Lynn Looks like you've done a very good job so far, but I realize you were probably using templets provided by znet. I recommend you learn to do your own html and you will have more control over the way your pages look. Infact you can see what they look like now by simply going up to "view" in your browser and then to "source". Copy it and then paste it in Windows Note Pad. This will give you a visual look inside what your pages real look like. There are so many great tutorials on the internet to learn html and the need for confussing and restricting software is unnecessary. As far as finding a place to put your website, there are quite afew out there, but I would stay away from free ones. They are very resticting and usually your pages are filled with adds and popups. I recommend Boomspeed.com where you can get 100 mgs of storage for $6.00 per month and there are no adds, no popups, no bandwdth limits and you get a guess book and free email. Another plus is a terrific support forum where people will help you with the html too. Thats always a plus as far as I'm concerned.
Good luck and if you have any questions just email me......another rose lover ;o)
I have never heard of jalbum, but I looked it up. Sounds like it might be ok for someone who wants to have an online photo album, but still very resticting for someone who wants a website IMO. I'll stick to my advice above and recommend learning HTML.
BTW, if you have Photoshop it has a similar program for creating web pages without having to insall another program on your computer. Also keep in mind that "free" programs always come with an advertisement attached. Maybe even spyware due to downloading it off the internet.
JAlbum does not have ads attached, nor is it spyware. It's a Java-based web album creator. It makes it much easier to create a large photo-heavy site because it does the thumbnail creating and linking to make the pictures show up.
It was written to handle the sort of problem the OP needs to solve:" I need one for mainly botanical type photos. There will be about 500 photos, thumbnails to go to full screen."

Heads up: Top comment and controversy
Alan Hansen to leave Match of the Day: the reaction
05 September 2013 11:33 AM
Alan Hansen, 58, has announced he will quit his role as a Match of the Day pundit after the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.
Known for his hatred of bad defending, Hansen said: "I've been in football for 41 years and I'm going out right at the top, just as I did at Liverpool.
"I have worked for a great organisation with wonderful people on the most fantastic programme."
As he leaves Britain's most watched football show after 22 years, here's a selection of the mixed responses from footy fans.
Do you think it's the right time for Hansen to bow out? Leave your comments below.
Alan Hansen has been a brilliant pundit one of the best , no matter what people said when he spoke you would always be on edge of your seatRobbie Savage (@RobbieSavage8) September 5, 2013

Spookyraven Manor Quest
From TheKolWiki
|The Hermit humbly requests that this page be rewritten or expanded.
Spookyraven Manor exists in the Right Side of the Tracks, but you can't adventure anywhere other than its pantry unless you read the telegram from Lady Spookyraven.
First Floor
- Use the telegram from Lady Spookyraven, which should be in your KMail right in the beginning of your Ascension, or when you reach Level 5 if you haven't ascended.
- Adventure in The Haunted Kitchen until you find the Spookyraven billiards room key. Finding the key requires you to open some drawers, which you do at the end of every combat. The number of drawers opened is based on either your Hot or Stench resistance. You open 1+floor(R/3), R being your Hot or Stench resistance. The number of drawers opened is capped at 4. You will find the key the turn after opening your 21st drawer.
- Adventure in The Haunted Billiards Room to find the Spookyraven library key:
- Obtaining the key requires you to beat the spectre in pool in Welcome To Our ool Table. Your chance of winning is based on your Pool Skill. At least 14 "units" are required; at 18, your victory is guaranteed. There are multiple ways to increase your Pool Skill:
- Equipping the pool cue gives +3 Pool Skill, and having the effect Chalky Hand from a handful of hand chalk gives +3 Pool Skill.
- In Welcome To Our ool Table, choosing the first option but losing gives you +1 Pool Skill. Choosing the 2nd option gives +1 Pool Skill, or +2 Pool Skill if you have the Chalky Hand effect. These sources do not carry over ascensions.
- The semi-rare adventure in the Billiards Room has two options. The first option permanently adds to your Pool Skill, and can be stacked to a maximum of +10. The second option drops a cube of billiard chalk, which gives the effect Chalked Weapon, which gives you +5 Pool Skill.
- Each point of Drunkenness gives you +1 Pool Skill, to a maximum of +10. Each point of Drunkenness above 10 will decrease your Pool Skill by 2.
- See Pool Skill for other sources, although the rest are encountered much later in the ascension.
- Obtaining the key requires you to beat the spectre in pool in Welcome To Our ool Table. Your chance of winning is based on your Pool Skill. At least 14 "units" are required; at 18, your victory is guaranteed. There are multiple ways to increase your Pool Skill:
- Adventure in The Haunted Library until you find Lady Spookyraven's necklace, which is dropped from the fifth writing desk you defeat.
- Once you have the necklace, Lady Spookyraven will appear in the manor. Give the necklace to her.
Second Floor
- Wait for Lady Spookyraven to send you another KMail, asking you to come to the Second Floor.
- Speak to Lady Spookyraven.
- Find three of Lady Spookyraven's dancing things:
- Dancing shoes: Adventure in The Haunted Gallery until you encounter Louvre It or Leave It. Keep choosing the middle option until you encounter The Persistence of Memory painting, then select the top option to receive Lady Spookyraven's dancing shoes. See the Louvre Map for more details.
- Gown: Adventure in The Haunted Bedroom and defeat an elegant animated nightstand. Choose the first option afterwards to obtain the gown.
- While you're in the Bedroom, pick up Lord Spookyraven's spectacles and a disposable instant camera from the animated ornate nightstand. The items can be obtained by picking the 3rd and 4th option, respectively. These items will help in the Level 11 quest.
- Powder puff: Adventure in The Haunted Bathroom until you encounter Never Gonna Make You Up. Defeat the cosmetics wraith.
- Give Lady Spookyraven her dancing things.
- Go to The Haunted Ballroom and dance with her.
Spookyraven Skill (Optional)
The Haunted Bedroom contains an item which is the key to obtaining a new skill.
- Equip Lord Spookyraven's spectacles and adventure in The Haunted Bedroom. Defeat an animated mahogany nightstand and choose the third option. Which item you obtain is based on your class:
- Seal Clubber and Avatar of Boris: tattered wolf standard
- Turtle Tamer: tattered snake standard
- Pastamancer and Sauceror: English to A. F. U. E. Dictionary
- Disco Bandit and Accordion Thief: bizarre illegible sheet music
- All other classes (Zombie Master, Avatar of Jarlsberg, Avatar of Sneaky Pete) will find nothing.
- From here, your course of action will vary according to your Class:
- SC/AoB: Adventure in The Haunted Gallery until you get the Out in the Garden adventure. Choose to fight the first knight.
- TT: Adventure in The Haunted Gallery until you get the Out in the Garden adventure. Choose to fight the second knight.
- PM/S: Adventure in The Haunted Library until you get the Take a Look, it's in a Book! (Rise) adventure. Choose to read "Ancient Forbidden Unspeakable Evil, a Love Story", followed by "Chapter 3: Twisted, Curdled, Corrupt Energy and You". (Adventure again if you get the other adventure).
- DB/AT: Adventure in The Haunted Ballroom until you get the Curtains adventure. Choose to "Investigate the organ".
Third Floor (Optional)
- Wait for Lady Spookyraven to send you a 3rd KMail, asking you to come to the Third Floor.
- Speak to Lady Spookyraven. She will give you a dusty poppet, a rickety rocking horse, and an antique jack-in-the-box.
- Corral Lady Spookyraven's babies to The Haunted Laboratory:
- Every X turns, you will encounter a non-combat adventure which gives you the option to use one of three toys. Each baby has a toy it loves and a toy it hates, with no babies sharing likes or dislikes.
- If you use a toy that a baby in the room hates, the baby will run away to another room. You may attract another baby that loves the toy into the room you're in.
- Each baby will initially be located in different rooms. That is, each zone contains only one baby at the start.
- Babies can only move between rooms clockwise in the following pattern: Storage Room > Laboratory > Nursery > Storage Room. For example, if you chase a baby out of the Storage Room, it will move to the Laboratory, and if a baby that loves the toy is in the Nursery, it will move to the Storage Room, and so forth.
- Therefore, the easiest way to complete this quest is to simply adventure at only the Storage Room, lure the baby located at the Nursery, then chase two of the babies out of the Storage Room to the Laboratory.
- Once you corralled all three babies to the Laboratory, you will obtain a jar of baby ghosts.
- Give the jar to Lady Spookyraven.
- ghost of a necklace (First Floor)
- +100 to all substats (Second Floor)
- Learn a class-based skill:
- ghost formula (Third Floor)
