My gold Angel has alot of stems.
My gold Angel has 8 main stems coming out of the ground every year. Is this normal? I also just bought 5 red Angel seeds, that I will plant tomorrow. Should I expect the same from them?
That many main stems is certainly not common but I don't think it's anything abnormal. It must be huge. You should post a pic. I wouldn't expect that many main stems from a sanguinea (red brug), or any other variety, for that matter. Where are you located? If you are in a West Coastal area the sanguinea should do well but they don't like the high heat you get in most other parts of the US.
I live right outside of Shreveport, La. I will be posting pics very soon. Last year it grew to a little over 15 feet tall and more then 15 wide. Right now it is about 2 feet tall.
You might have a problem getting the Sanguineas to bloom because of the heat but you never know. Maybe you'll be one of the lucky ones that's able to get the sangs to bloom away from the West Coast. Your gold brug sounds gorgeous. I'd love to see a pic when it's full grown and in bloom.
It is pretty usual if you cut it back low for the winter, it then has to come up from the trunk base and even the roots for the new year's growth. You 'could' air layer one of those stalks for a single specimen but by the sounds of it, this plant just likes to grow multiple stalks.
Seedlings usually grow a single stalk until it gets cut back or damaged. It will however get a nice canopy at the top.

The movie's fertile subject is themed marriage ceremonies, and the conceit is a contest, carelessly hatched over a liquid lunch by the publishers of a glossy wedding magazine, between three engaged couples to come up with the best gimmick for their nuptial hours, with the winner scoring a million-dollar mansion in which to embark on their connubial bliss. A couple of giddy wedding planners (played in a key of buoyant poofterism by Vincent Franklin and Jason Watkins) will help them realize their dreams of getting spliced, respectively, while playing tennis, while stark naked, and while dancing a Busby Berkeley spectacular. That all three couples are utterly useless in their chosen fields of performance goes without saying. But as preparations for the competition videos get under way, the couples' lack of talent or finesse pales before the aggravations of meddlesome friends and family, prominent among them a terrific Alison Steadman, former wife and collaborator of Mike Leigh, as an interfering mum with a basilisk stare guaranteed to freeze the balls off the hapless planners.
Indeed, Confetti, cobbled together by a pack of ad-libbing British comedians, plays like an anarchic parody of Mike Leigh's increasingly ossified and earnest method of workshopping and improvisation. In lesser hands, this could rapidly decline into summer-camp burlesque as it's sort of meant to but director Debbie Isitt handily exploits the radical promise of live reality programming to subvert the aims of its managers by running exuberantly out of control. The rollicking and ineffably sweet final wedding sequences offer a rambunctious poke in the eye of television's mania for tight control, its congenital antipathy to dead space or spontaneity. Isitt herself seems to have almost limitless tolerance for the unscripted her large professional ensemble is sprinkled with real-life figures, including a Spanish tennis coach named "Hey-Soos," who was brought in to coach the actors and stayed to mediate their characters' endless bickering.
As always the ever-so-humble come out tops, yet Confetti comes not to emulate, but to rescue us from the seemingly endless stream of cookie-cutter British comedies the lazy-minded spawn of The Full Monty about workers moving on up through soccer, song and dance, or flashing their tits for a good cause. And if nothing else, this affectionately off-the-wall confection offers exuberant confirmation of every suspicion you might ever have had that the English are charmingly eccentric. They're barking mad.

The TMA-1s are closed-back headphones, so they won't leak sound to those around you if you're listening to music in a public place. Closed designs are also well-suited for mixing engineers and DJs who need the sound isolation to concentrate and compete with other loud noises surrounding the booth. The fit of the TMA-1s will vary from user to user, but the flexible headband and lightweight balance gave us very little ear fatigue. If anything, we found ourselves repositioning the headband from time to time, but it wasn't a big deal.
As mentioned earlier, the on-ear shape means you won't be as engulfed in sound as much as with circumaural (full-sized) headphones, but you won't likely notice the difference, thanks to the balanced sound signature that approaches audiophile-quality. Unlike many headphones we test, the TMA-1s sounded considerably forward right out of the box, with crisp detail and extra attention paid to bright vocals and thumping bass.
In particular, we also notice a natural, wide depth of sound while listening to music with natural music instruments like jazz and classical, and a realism that's tough for other cans to reproduce. That's not to say that electronic, hip-hop, and rock listeners are left out of the fun; The TMA-1s' rumbling low-end punch and precision balance are complimentary to any music genre, and the loud volume level gives us no reason to doubt their performance in a nightlife environment.
With an even helping of tight bass, level mids, and sharp high tones, the TMA-1s complimented every genre of music we pumped through them, so we won't limit our recommendation of them to DJs alone. The tough constructions and efficient sound isolation means that students, mixing engineers, commuters, and office jockeys will all enjoy their stand-out performance.

If you missed out on Target's infamous Missoni collection in September, now's your chance for another crack at the famous zigzag designer collection.
Nearly 100 pieces were available online this morning although nearly as many show "out of stock." A few items are on clearance, including a 4-piece sling sectional patio set for $360, regularly $600. Lots of toddler girls clothing, electronics accessories for smartphones and tablets, bedding, pouf ottomans, and mugs are still available. Also avaialble are the hot bikes for $399 in men's and women's styling. The photos don't seem to show the famous Missoni pattern, however.
Nearly all of the women's clothing, dinner plates, trays and accent pillows have sold out.
Target spokesman Lee Henderson said that Target is in the process of filling online orders for the Missoni collection, so additional inventory is being made available. "A limited number of items are expected to become available throughout the next few weeks," he wrote in an email.
Henderson did not indicate if the bugs had been worked out of the site, although I was able to navigate fine this morning.
I was not able to find any Target stores with added Missoni in stock this morning after a chek with several managers. it appears that the remaining stock is online only. One manager said that she does not believe that any additional Missoni will hit the stores from the September collection.

Only got 13/15-missed Pakistan and that teachers may quote the bible . I ''KNOW'' a lot about religions -just lost my faith and tired of looking for it .
Here is the actual 32 question quiz that was given in the survey. I got 29/32, missed Job being associated with suffering, Nirvana being the goal for Buddhists and the guy associated with the first great awakening (I would have missed the Maimonides question as well if I didn't see the answer in Spider's article).
There's no such thing as a pretty good aligator wrestler.
I got 26.75 (three out of four of the gospels).
Hint for those taking the quiz: "I don't know" is never the right answer.
Atrophy: what you get when you win atournament.
15 of 15, but I had a few guesses.
13 of 15 correct.
I have never ever read the Bible but these questions didn't seem too hard either.
You answered 15 out of 15 questions correctly
for a score of 100%.
That was actually a pretty easy quiz.

Vicki Jenson demonstrates how to create Valentine Candy Heart nail art.
1. File, shape, and buff gel or acrylic nails. A sheer, pink glitter acrylic is pictured here. Apply two acrylic pink balls next to each other and shape into a heart.
2. Add a smaller heart using a soft purple.
3. Apply the last heart in a bright pink acrylic. After they have dried, apply an acrylic sealant to the entire surface. Place two rhinestones in the sealant, and then cure for two minutes in a UV lamp.

All the water in heaven landed on Yosemite, but at the end of the day we witnessed this from Tunnel View.
Bronica ETRSi | Portra 400 | Unicolor C41 Dev
Gabriel Sanz, Cole Chase Photography, and 193 other people added this photo to their favorites.
Thanks for the link to this photo again! It is so stunning.
Wow! This is beautiful!
fantastic landscape shot!
wow, congrats on KEH image(s) of the month. This is a fantastic shot. I REALLY envy you this location nearby.
PS: awaiting my ETRSi and back, no lens yet. What lens did you use here?
Sorry for the late reply - I've bee away from Flickr! Honestly, I don't remember the lens! I would have normally approached this with my 50mm MC, but this looks more like the 75PE or 100 PE. The wide angle pushes this stuff way back, so it had to have been one of those two! Thanks for the congrats, they surprised me this time.
Thanks for the information. I will probably get a 75mm first.
Do you ever do prints?
This is truly incredible! I'm seriously considering getting on of these. I think it should hold me over until I can afford to replace my digital system.
what settings did u use for the 9000f? do you turn on unsharp mask and other options??
I use VueScan with the 9000f, It's been very worth it, but it had a really steep learning curve (and I'm good with stuff like that). I never had much luck with the software that came with the scanner. I've also gotten an anti-newton kit from betterscanning.com, another "investment", but it's improved my scanning immensely, it really flattens the film and I've not had a ring since. Love the 9000f, though, it's been perfect for me. Just glanced through your stream - it doesn't look like you need any advice on scanning - nice work!
Hey James, for my medium format negatives I use a glas now too, works nicely (for 35mm this is too much hassle usually).
A question: following this experience (see: tmblr.co/ZKUGPwc3PQ4L) I wondered how you carry your Bronica & lens(es) and tripod around, especially through al that nature and real MOUNTAiNS?
Regards, Rolf
please tell me more about avoiding newton rings - I've been struggling with them for a long time when I used glass... Rolf, what sort of glass do you use, just normal glass or antireflex? I've tried both, sometimes Mr. Newton stays away but sometimes it's awful.... James, it seems that you would recommend the anti-newton kit, right?
Hello Manni, well I'm in Germany and thus stuff from the US is more expensive due to shipping costs and taxes and duty. I am using a Canon 8600f with its' plastic negative holder for both 35mm and 120 film. They are quite flimsy but work about alright with 35mm negatives (quite often they cut off some part of the image, I'd prefer to see both sides of black/unexposed film area and then chose framing with software, but… nothing I can do about it) but not at all very well with 120 film. medium format film hangs, is not held properly, can move etc. I even got newton rings because the film was hanging down to the scanner glass. Here glass has helped a lot. I got mine from www.monochrom.com , (see: www.monochrom.com/Scannerzubehoer.htm?websale7=mono-c&... ; German!) I don't know where they buy them. It's anti-newton glass, so edged on one side. The glass for 35mm is like for 5 negatives, only, so that is a hassle, with 120 film it's either three 6x6 or four 6x45. One puts film with the curved side UP and fixes it with the glass. Of course it means two more surfaces to keep clean… another reason why I don't usually use them with 35mm. Oh, I only usually scan my B&W, color is done by local lab (might move to Findlab in the US though).
Hope that helps.
I agree with everything Rolf said. For me, the betterscanning.com kit is flawless if they make one for your scanner. For 120/220 film it comes with glass and its own (very sturdy) frame and you can even adjust the height to focus with your scanner (mine was focused fine as it came). It scans so far out to the edge of the film that keeping the film properly seated on the frame is the only problem I have. For 35mm they just have the glass and I use it with the frame that came with the scanner. Rolf's right, 5 frames at a time, and that's a bit of a pain, but I still do it. I develop my own B&W and color and use the glass for both. I haven't had one ring since I got it. My dev and scans could be pretty bad before I did this and switched to distilled water, it was very worth it.
And Rolf - I'll answer your other question in an e-mail. It might get long!
Rolf and James, thank you very much for your extensive advice that gives me lots of aspects to consider. Rolf, ich bin übrigens auch Deutscher, but for the benefit of making me understand to all my photo friends in the various countries I prefer to write in English :-)
I had a Canoscan 8600 F, but after 6 years of good service he decided to cause trouble once in a while, so I decided to get a new one - this time I bought an Epson V700. It's excellent, too, like the Canoscan, but the problem with Mr. Newton sucks.... Sometimes the film comes rather curved out of the lab -- how can a scanner get the pictures in a negative holder sharp ? Or asked in a different way - why do I pay lots of money for excellent cameras and lenses, if the scanning result is not really satisfying, not sharp enough?
But again - thank you both, I'll enquire in different directions as indicated by you..
well Manni, just to add, I believe the software one uses contributes a large amount. I am using Silverfast Ai (still on OSX 10.6, so I use 6.x) it does suck mightily (GUI, buggy, – in my opinion – stupidly organization and behavior), but the results are much better than the generic Canon software, I never got Vuescan to properly run on my machine). For OSX 10.7 and above they have Silverfast 8.x. It is an investent but worth it. If you can get Vuescan to work, this is much much cheaper. The glass inserts sold by monochrom are for the original scanner's negative holder (both 35mm and 120 film), the price is ok I believe. No option to wet-mount (which James refered to with "distilled water") or adjust the hight of the negative vs. scanner-glas. But then, we will never get results comparable to drum scan or fujitsu.
I use SilverFast as well, the freeware version, (6.4, I believe). It is quite good - but the one I had for the 8600 F went wild one day, some important commands didn't work anymore, deinstalling and new installing didn't help a bit. Now, the one supplied with my Epson V700 works fine (so far....)
James, please forgive me for misusing your beautiful picture for such technical discussions with yourself and Rolf :-)

Nalgene to Stop Using PBA Chemical in Water Bottles
Nalgene Making Changes
Recently I wrote to just say no to Nalgene hard plastic water bottles, since they contain bisphenol A (BPA), which leaches into your water and can possibly cause all kinds of health problems. Nalgene has heard our cries. They just announced that they will start making their bottles without the controversial BPA. Of course, government scientists are only slightly concerned, and feel that there are no known risks to human health, but Nalgene isn't taking any chances. They decided to make the switch in response to consumer demand.
It will take several months for Nalgene to ditch the BPA from their "Outdoor" line of polycarbonate water bottles. Just so you know, they do make other reusable bottles that don't contain this questionable chemical. Look for their newly unveiled Everyday line. They're made out of Tritan copolyester, which is dishwasher safe and BPA free. Of course, if you have old Nalgene bottles, I'd think of some creative ways to reuse them – piggy bank?

Some of you are going to say this little breakthrough of Jason's is ridiculous (and it's supposed to be… obviously), but at the same time, this realization that opinions of movies are (at least to some extent) a subjective thing is something a lot of you guys haven't managed to fully grasp, either.

Leonard Nimoy (1931–2015)
Sunday, March 1, 2015
I was never a huge Star Trek fan, exactly. I love some of the early episodes, and I think Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan is one of the greatest
science fiction movies of all time. I enjoyed Star Trek III and IV, too, for what they were. I read a bunch of the DC Comics Star Trek stuff at that time, because my brother bought them. And I watched a bit of the Next Generation and then fell off the wagon. Kirk and Spock were my Star Trek, and the Star Trek 2–4 "era" was its peak for me, warts and all, because that's the "era" that really hooked me. And really, for me, it was all about Wrath of Khan.
In addition to playing Mr. Spock, of course, Leonard Nimoy did a lot of other things. He was on Mission: Impossible. He directed a few movies (Three Men and a Baby!). He was a photographer. He was the voice of Civilization IV. But one thing I really loved of his was Standby: Lights, Camera, Action, on Nickelodeon from 1982–1987, which provided a behind the scenes look at movies like Star Trek III, Return of the Jedi, 2010, and more. Nimoy hosted and occasionally interviewed guests like George Lucas. As a budding film nerd in the pre-Internet Dark Ages, behind the scenes specials like Standby: Lights, Camera, Action were hard to come by. I ate that show up.
Anyway, as you're undoubtedly aware by now, Leonard Nimoy passed away on the 27th. As cartoonists do when they're sad about these kinds of things, I drew a picture:

The Canadian Press - ONLINE EDITION
Report: Caribbean tourism rebounding to pre-financial crisis levels
SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico - The number of people travelling to the Caribbean is bouncing back to pre-recession levels, with visitors from Canada and the U.S. giving a boost to a region struggling to recover from a global economic crisis, a top tourism official said Wednesday.
About 25 million tourists visited the Caribbean last year, a more than 5 per cent increase from 2011. It's a growth rate that outpaced the rest of the world, which saw arrivals increase by 4 per cent, said Beverly Nicholson-Doty, chairwoman of the Barbados-based Caribbean Tourism Organization.
"All the signs suggest Caribbean tourism is rallying," said Nicholson-Doty. "The region as a whole has regained ground lost in the heat of the global economic depression."
The Caribbean also saw its largest number of stayover visitors in five years, with the region's overall hotel occupancy increasing by more than 7 per cent and total room revenues up by nearly 9 per cent.
And tourists spent big while visiting the Caribbean last year, dropping more than $27 billion, a more than 3 per cent increase from 2011. The numbers mark a return to pre-recession levels, Nicholson-Doty said.
The U.S. territories of Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands fared the best, reporting a nearly 7 per cent jump in tourists. From January to August last year alone, more than 1.1 million people visited Puerto Rico, mostly from the U.S. mainland.
Recent visitors include James Trucksess, a 46-year-old extermination business owner from North Brunswick, New Jersey. He flew again to Puerto Rico this week to escape the crippling snowstorm that recently hit the northeast U.S. coast.
"It's nice, it's warm and there's a lot of history," he said as he strolled near a historic fort with a cigar in one hand and a cup of coffee in another. "I come here pretty much for the history and the food as well."
Coming in second for visitor arrivals was the Dutch Caribbean, reporting a 5.6 per cent increase from 2011 thanks to a surge in business from South America. The most popular islands were Curacao and Aruba, just north of Venezuela.
The bulk of tourists visiting the Caribbean come from the U.S., a number that increased by more than 4 per cent last year, on par with pre-recession levels five years ago. Canada also remained one of the Caribbean's largest markets, with tourists from that country increasing by nearly 6 per cent in 2012.
Meanwhile, the number of visitors from the United Kingdom dropped by 10 per cent to 1 million last year, with tourism officials blaming weak European economies and high airfares coupled with a controversial air passenger duty.
Cruise ship tourism was flat across the Caribbean for the last three years. Some islands suffered more than others, with Barbados, Grenada, St. Vincent, Dominica and the British Virgin Islands seeing a double-digit percentage drop in cruise ship passenger arrivals last year.
A slight increase is cruise ship tourism is expected next year after Disney Cruise Lines begins departing from the Puerto Rican capital of San Juan, generating an estimated $5 million in revenue from the four departures scheduled in 2014. Those cruise ships will stop for the first time at the eastern Caribbean island of Grenada, which saw a nearly 22 per cent drop in cruise ship passengers in 2012.
Caribbean governments are counting on cruise ship passengers like 40-year-old Jenna Balagus of Winnipeg, Canada, who arrived for the first time in Puerto Rico on Wednesday but hopes to return for an extended stay.
"Puerto Rico has a unique culture," she said as she watched her husband play with their three sons in a shaded public plaza. "I'd like to see more of it."
