It would be handy to have a Next Comment button - analagous to the Next Game button - that would take you to the next topic you have an alert for.
Currently you have to click on MY HOME and scroll down past the Current Games listing to the New Comments section. (This itself is a great improvement on the olden days - see alert-issue).
What if I prefer to read next the 3rd or 4th comment in the queue line (do not think that I ever used the French word here to illustrate my lengthy arsenal of positions or comment) ?
The dedicated button could be like a toggle switch allowing to move back and forth on the comments, as I may want to reread a comment, and with additional options to skip or just go to the next comment, so a drop down menu would be in order to select my preferred choices.
Buttons where invented for shirts and trousers and now is a common term in computer interface navigation. Just be careful of the buttons that you push.
You can already do this. Click on MY HOME. Scroll down to New Comments (as noted here - for those on the alert).

Dark spots on squash and zucchini fruits (leaves mostly ok)
Some of my zucchinis and squashes fruits don't look so good. They're spotty.
Not all plants are affected. As you can see, the squashes' foliage looks alright. The zucchinis leaves do appear a liiittle bit burned. I don't know whether this is related.
You can also see that the zucchinis are getting preyed on by rodents (or so I think), but that's a whole other problem.
Do you have any idea of what it is or what I should do?
PS: I'm hoping the rodents will get sick from the infected zucchini!
Sadly the rodents won't get sick because your zucchini aren't infected with anything. The dark spots are just scars or places where something munched on your fruit, like maybe cucumber beetles (though the large bites are definitely a rodent). If the fruit doesn't rot off those spots will form a scar and the fruit will still be edible. As far as doing something you need to find the pest on your plant to research how to deal with it. It is likely either cucumber beetles or squash bugs.

Assessing the effect of socio-economic factors on agrobiodiversity in homegardens of Jajrood and Jamabrood in Tehran province(Iran).
Agriculture Revolution in 10 thousand years ago is considered as a turning point in human social evolution, and it seems man's contradictory interests with environment have been formed since that time. At first, because of the population balance and coordination between human functions and nature, this conflict was not obvious. However, current developments over the past two centuries particularly industrial and chemical revolution and also population explosion, led human into battle with nature, seriously [8]. Due to initiation of mechanization, agriculture along with industry went into area of mass production. On the other hand, after World War II, the use of supplementary energies, particularly chemical fertilizers developed rapidly, and afterward, the pesticides were emerged. Since the early 1950s to 1970, scientists started utilizing new technologies and management approaches in agroecosystems. In this regard, plant breeding and propagation in order to achieve proper characteristics in crops particularly in wheat, maize and rice were launched extensively. Therefore, plant breeders began to produce genetically high yield and homogenous crop varieties which were dependent noticeably on external inputs such as chemical fertilizers and pesticides. By evolution of intensified agricultural systems, merely target species were able to be survived. Consequently, it led to simplification of agro-ecosystems [10,6,5]. As a result, agrobiodiversity in agroecosystems started to diminish [20,4,23]. Nowadays, Biodiversity conservation is one of the most crucial issues discussed in sustainable development so that it could be considered as a prerequisite for sustainable agriculture. Moreover, Biodiversity is a vital part of a healthy and sustainable environment and so with loss of biodiversity in a region or an ecosystem, instability would be inevitable. Agrobiodiversity is the result of conscious activities of farmers, ranchers and fishermen over thousands of years. Conservation of agrobiodiversity is the assurance of its current and future existence and is a guarantee to its use by future generations [16,25,15,7,2]. Native and semi-domesticated plants play vital role in maintaining diversity in traditional agricultural systems [10]. Home gardens are considered as an important component of in-situ conservation since they contain high levels of diversity. Home gardens were defined in 2006 by Sharmila Sunwar et al as following: "production systems of different crops and vegetables which are adjacent to household location and accessible to them". Home garden as one of the oldest land use management systems has a rich and valuable species diversity. Numerous varieties and native species as well as rare and endangered species are found in this system [24,14,18]. Over years, farmers have planted various species with suitable characteristics in Home gardens and have made it potential and actual sources for selection and domestication of plant species [9,1]. Richness of Home gardens and its sustainability have made it an appropriate approach for in-situ conservation; furthermore, it can promote household's income over time [22]. This study was conducted in Jajrood and Jamabrood county of Tehran province, in order to assess the situation of agrobiodiversity in Home gardens and investigate the importance of these systems in protecting of plant species. In this regard, socio-economic aspects of studied area were investigated then after the effect of these factors on agrobiodiversity indicators was evaluated. The aim of this study was estimation the biodiversity indices of Home gardens and investigating the significance of Home gardens on agrobiodiversity conservation as well as evaluating the effects of socio-economic factors on biodiversity in aforesaid systems.
Materials and Methods
Study area:
Eight villages with suitable geographic distribution were studied as the sample for regional evaluation during September 2009 until September 2010 (Figure 1). Two major regions were considered in the study: 1) The conservational area of Jajrood, 2) Region outside of the conservational area. The studied area was located at 25' and 35[degrees] to 5' and 36[degrees] North latitude and 45' to 51[degrees] and 5' to 52[degrees] east longitude. This area is affected by subtropical high pressure system during warm seasons and therefore, the amount of its rainfall is low and mainly is due to occasional passing of cold dynamic low pressure systems on the Northern slopes of the Alborz Mountains. Also in winters it is affected by Northern, Northwestern and Southwestern systems which come in Iran plateau. Arid cold, semi-arid cold and semi-wet cold climates are detectable in this area. In conservational area, two villages, Khosroabad and Siahsang, and in non-conservational area six other villages: Mara, Shamlabeh, Temisian, from Jajrood district and Maranak, Absard, and Ahran from jamabrood district were selected.
Data analyze:
According to literature review and related effective factors on biodiversity, the questionnaire was designed. The questionnaires were designed to assess two biodiversity indicators of Shannon-Wiener index and species richness indicator and also socioeconomic factors effective on them completed through direct interviews with farmers. Species richness degree of all Home gardens was computed after entering data on species and their area under cultivation into SPSS Version 18 and Excel version 2003, 2007. Also Shannon index for Home gardens was figured by specialized software called Ecological Methodology.
Then after using SPSS Version 18 software, the correlation of the average of every obtained factor (socioeconomic factors) from the questionnaire with agrobiodiversity indicators was calculated and its regression equation got fitted. Finally a cluster diagram was plotted to identify the difference between features of home gardens in studied villages.
Results and Discussion
Socioeconomic Situation of the Region:
In the first step of the study and data mining, social aspects of each village were studied. In this regard, results in relation to farmers' age and experience, number of household members, number of people employed in agriculture section and education level were estimated and subsequently compared. Average age in Siahsang village was 45.83 years which was the minimum value, and the largest was for Shamlabeh village by 60 years. Other important trait was the amount of farmers' experience. It was observed that farmers in Shamlabeh village had 37.7 years experience which was the most amount of experience and farmers in Absard village had 22.7 years experience which was the lowest. The average experience of farmers in Siahsang village was considered zero (0) due to lack of farmer population. Figure 2 shows farmers' level of experience and average age of them in the studied villages.
Factors such as the area of the home garden and income rate from home garden seemed to be necessary to report the situation of this small agricultural system. Average areas of 8 studied village Home gardens (Home gardens' area unit based on square meters has been measured) are demonstrated in Table (1).
Absard village and Temisian village having the average of 28 and 26 [m.sup.2] respectively, had the minimum area of Home gardens, on the other hand, the average size of Home gardens in Khosro Abad village as a representative of protected area was in fine condition compared with other villages. In regard with vastness of Home gardens, It was just Khosro Abad village using Duncan mean comparison test at probability level of 95% had significant difference with other villages. The Average rate of income through Home gardens extracted from the questionnaires is depicted in Table (1).
In Khosro Abad village located in protected area in Jajrood there is the highest rate of home garden income. Average income from products sale has a significant correlation with home garden vastness which was significant at probability level of 99% (Table 2).
The number of household members and people employed in agriculture section per household is demonstrated in table 3. Low number of households' members employed in agriculture section indicates the lack of tendency in younger people to participate in this area.
Indices of Agro biodiversity in Home gardens:
Home gardens Species Richness index:
This index was calculated based on counting of the number of existing species in Home gardens for each village. It seems almost all species in farms and gardens (except species such as wheat) of studied villages are cultivated in home garden systems for consumptions of households, although it is possible that some of the products are sold. Species richness of gardens and farms in Siahsang village was almost zero, whereas in Home gardens of mentioned village high species richness was detected. It indicates that, Home gardens as a protection approach for agrobiodiversity has had an excellent performance in this area. Siahsang and Khosro Abad villages located in the protected area had high values of this index. In accordance with biodiversity The Western and Eastern studied regions of our research had better situations than the central region, i.e. Mara, Temisian and Shamlabeh villages. Home garden species richness in the studied villages is depicted in table 3.
Shannon-Wiener Index of Home gardens:
Index of species richness alone could not be an appropriate index to estimated biodiversity of an area. Several species may exist in a region system while extensive cultivation area might be allocated to the limited number of species. To resolve mentioned deficiency, in area under cultivation of Home gardens, another index called Shannon-Wiener was used, because in addition to frequency, distribution of existing species should be estimated. The rate of this index in the studied villages is shown in table 4. Shannon index of Khosro Abad village home garden in the protected area was very high that indicates in addition to high species richness, the existing species have appropriate distribution in cultivated area.
At probability level of 99%, the rate of Home gardens' income has significant and positive correlation with the amount of work of women in Home gardens and also this income rate at this probability level has positive correlation with home garden age (Table 5). Also, there is a non-significant negative relationship between Shannon index in Home gardens and amount of working time in home garden. Similarly, there is a significant correlation at level of 99% between Home gardens' income and home garden age.
About Home gardens as it seemed species richness of these systems has a direct relationship with the Shannon index of Home gardens. This correlation is significant at probability level of 99%. Regarding the correlations (Table 6) it seems that younger farmers tend to use more of agrobiodiversity in home garden systems, although age of farmers and the Shannon index was not significant, but the negative correlation between age of farmers and Shannon index prove it.
Figure 4 shows difference of villages in indicators of agro biodiversity related to home garden by the cluster diagram. Despite of all differences in these villages according to their geographical location and also their location in and out of protected area, it can be seen that these villages are generally located in one cluster due to indicators of biodiversity, indicating that regardless of imposed environmental pressures and even changes and differences in management system of these systems, they have been able to be stable as a kind of in-situ conservation.
Existing species in Home gardens (in this study different species of vegetables have been considered as one kind of species) is shown in table 6.
In this study, the situation of agro biodiversity in home garden systems was determined to some extent in Tehran Northeast area, and the effect of socioeconomic factors on biodiversity of these systems was evaluated, and consequently, the importance of Home gardens to agro biodiversity conservation, as a kind of in-situ protection, was determined.
In comparison with Home gardens in Western part of Nepal [19], it seems that diversity indices were higher than the area of our study. Average area of Home gardens were greater in their study, which in tropical section of Nepal was almost 470 [m.sup.2], and in semi-mountainous area it was 350 [m.sup.2], Moreover species richness index and Shannon index showed lower numbers in our study. Species richness in tropical and semi-mountainous area of Nepal showed 38 and 27 species, respectively, and Shannon index in these areas showed numbers 4 to 4.5 that was also higher than studied villages of this research. The noticeable point is that in the Nepal Home gardens which are different from the Iran's cultivation of cereals is common in these small systems that were not observed in our studied areas. There was not significant relationship between species richness and home garden area in our study. This study reveals that the rate of household caretakers 'age and their working hours in Home gardens does not have significant relationship with species richness and Shannon indices, It was confirmed by Hashemi studies (2009), which were done on Basht county of Gachsaran city in Iran. Hashemi found that by increasing the percentage of women work in Home gardens the species diversity rate in these systems increases and also their functional role becomes more and further conspicuous. In this regard, there was no significant correlation between the time of women work in Home gardens and biodiversity indices, and on the other hand, the time of women work revealed a significant and positive correlation with the rate of income which represents the functional role of women Home gardens.
At the present, there is an urgent need to increase such studies in different parts of the country to complete information to start monitoring. Protection of the existing species is essential. Home gardens during many years have been excellent for in-situ conservation. But in areas such as Siahsang village in which farm and garden systems have been destroyed, these small systems in addition to have functional role for households, also responsible for maintaining diversity and agricultural plant species in the area.
Home gardens due to proximity to households' location are affected by indigenous cultures of people and also could implicitly reflect the socioeconomic and cultural conditions of rural communities. These small systems with high species richness as a complement for farming and gardening systems that today have moved toward the simplified and intensified systems could protect old and valuable species which have been removed from agricultural land due to less commercial significance. Furthermore, by providing compatible and resistant native species as alternative plants, they would play an important functional role as genetic resources to support and maintain biodiversity in confronting with some problems such as pest and disease incidence or environmental stresses.

Symphoricarpos or 'Coralberry'
I have two coralberries planted in my cutting garden for using the berried branches in the Autumn. Instructions say to prune in late fall or early Spring. Does anyone know how much to prune? One source said it can be trimmed to practically nothing!
On another note, these were planted a year ago so are not fully mature.
If new and dinky no need to prune is likely. Pruning doesn't help plants grow, it's done to get a particular result that is desired by the gardener.
There are multiple pruning books on the market where you can look this genus up for specific pointers. Searching the internet for "symphoricarpos pruning" and the like is bound to turn them up as well.
If you've looked at a few discussions that left you wondering, maybe look at some more hits or seek out some books instead. Probably most public libraries have at least a few pruning titles.
Thank you bboy. It was one of those moments of why didn't I think of that? So, I pulled my "Woody Cut Stems for Growers and Florists" off the shelf and coralberry pruning is addressed. Coralberry blooms (and subsequently fruits) on new wood so plant can be cut to the ground in early spring with some growers cutting to ten inches.
I'm off outside with my pruners!
Again, I wouldn't whack down small specimens as that will slow their establishment and development. Unless you are cutting them for arrangements there shouldn't be much pruning at all until and unless you think they are due for a renovation. With specimens planted as border subjects this would occur periodically, with long intervals of many years between.

WDUV, known as "The Dove", is a radio station broadcasting on 105.5 FM, serving the Tampa Bay media market in Florida. Owned by Cox Radio, its studios are located in St. Petersburg, and the transmitter site is in Holiday.
Initially signing on in October 1963 with a beautiful music format, WDUV was formerly licensed to Bradenton in Manatee County and formerly broadcast at 103.3 FM. The station originally shared the same studio facilities on Tamiami Trail in Bradenton with WBRD AM 1420 and the Bradenton news bureau of WXLT-TV; at the time, all three stations were owned by the same family.
In the early-1990s, WDUV relocated its frequency to 103.5 FM, to improve its coverage area in the Tampa Bay area. By the mid-1990s, WDUV would be acquired by Jacor Broadcasting (since absorbed by Clear Channel Communications), who relocated its studios to St. Petersburg. As recently as 1997, WDUV continued to play about 50 percent instrumental music.[1]
On April 5, 1999, WDUV would swap its frequency with Classic rock station WTBT, moving from 103.5 to the stronger 105.5 signal (WTBT is now WFUS). However, both frequencies would retain their transmitting locations and cities of license—after the swap, WDUV became licensed in New Port Richey with transmitting facilities in Holiday, while WTBT/WFUS, whose transmitter was located in Riverview, became licensed in Bradenton. (That station has since been relicensed to Gulfport.)
Shortly after the swap, Clear Channel would sell WDUV to its present owner, Cox Radio.
Current programing and format evolution[edit]
Currently, the station specializes in playing a so-called "super-soft" and heavily oldies-based soft adult contemporary format, which announcers for the station describe as "continuous lite favorites." Over the past decade or so, the station's music mix has evolved from an "easy listening" format featuring a sprinkling of "adult standards" artists such as Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett, and Connie Francis to its current direction, which is a mixture of softer Top 40 and soft rock favorites from chiefly the late 1960s through the 2000s. Artists frequently heard on the station include Elton John, The Carpenters, Celine Dion, Barry Manilow, Lionel Richie, Bread, The Beatles, Fleetwood Mac, The Supremes, Sade, Bette Midler, and The Eagles.
The station formerly also featured one or two smooth jazz instrumentals an hour as a segway from its past "beautiful music" format. With the purge of the "adult standards" artists from the station's playlist and addition of some more recent and more upbeat songs, the smooth jazz instrumentals were dropped completely.
WDUV is owned by Cox Radio, and is one of the highest-rated radio stations playing a format of its kind in the United States. According to Arbitron, WDUV was the highest-rated radio station in Tampa Bay, beating out its nearest competitor, WFLA, by nearly three full percentage points in the winter of 2008. Currently, WDUV has a 9% market share out of all the radio stations licensed for the Tampa area, sliding one percentage point from 2005.
WDUV's popular morning show, which airs from 6 to 10 a.m., was hosted by radio personality Dick Ring until he left the station on April 27, 2012.[2] The following Monday, Ring, who moved to North Carolina, was replaced by Ann Kelly, also the afternoon drive host for WWRM. The remainder of the broadcasting day is generally automated and without disk jockeys—which was how WDUV operated for most of its life on the air.
Sample hour[edit]
A sample hours of music on WDUV in June, 2012, included songs such as the following:
- "Can't Get Enough of Your Love Babe" - Barry White
- "Giving You the Best That I Got" - Anita Baker
- "Baby Come Back" - Player
- "Because You Loved Me" - Celine Dion
- "Imagine" - John Lennon
- "The Living Years" - Mike & The Mechanics
- "Your Song" - Elton John
- "Still" - The Commodores
- "Wind Beneath My Wings" - Bette Midler
- "How Deep Is Your Love" - The Bee Gees
- "Rainy Days and Mondays" - Carpenters

About Zipcar
A Zipcar promo code can unlock a membership with this car-sharing company, giving you access to thousands of roadsters, day or night and all week long. But, Zipcar doesn't stop at opening the door. It makes sure you're equipped with insurance and gas while you zoom as far as 180 miles each day. Thanks to a handy mobile app, you can book a car anywhere and even unlock it when you arrive. You can also unlock the vehicles you reserve with your membership card, which doubles as a literal badge of honor. To get started, grab a Zipcar coupon from the list below.
Antje Danielson and Robin Chase founded Zipcar in 2000, patterning their brainchild after tried-and-true European car-sharing companies. They started with Boston and spread to New York, San Francisco, and beyond over the course of a decade. Today, Zipcar's fleet features more than 30 different makes and models, ranging from Mini Coopers and BMWs to Prius hybrids. All users have to do is reserve a nearby vehicle, pick it up, and, when done, drop it off at the same location. Through the Zipcar website and mobile app you can see a complete listing of available vehicles. Can't pry yourself away from your ride? If members realize they need to extend their reservations, they can do so on the fly, so long as another member hasn't already reserved it. Before you nab a compact, hatchback, or a pickup near you, make sure you sign up by using a Zipcar promo code.
If you're looking for an eco-conscious alternative to owning a car, Zipcar's fleet includes about 10,000 vehicles—each of which takes about 15 cars and trucks off the road. A Zipcar membership also helps most users reduce their time in a four-wheeled transport down to 5,500 miles or fewer each year, sparing about 219 gallons of crude oil per member.
Owning a car can be extremely stressful when you realize how much you're paying for gas or your car sulks home with a black eye. There's an easier way now that you've found a Zipcar promotion code.

Update: Sandoval (elbow) was removed from Friday's Cactus League game in the fourth inning after reporting soreness following a groundout, the San Jose Mercury News reports.
