Perennials with feathery, gauzy shapes
Hi all,
I am thinking of completely reworking my largest flower bed, which is only in its second year. I have a hard time with spacing and figuring out placement for plant heights in a large, undifferentiated bed.
I have made a list of cottage-style flowers to grow, but I want more plants with shapes that are tall and feathery, like liatris. I've also been admiring Chinese meadow rue "Hewitt's Double."
What are some of your favorites? I'm in Pittsburgh, PA, zone 6. The plants don't need to be tall themselves. I like the long, feathery, Piet Oudolf-style gauzy plantings, and would really like to incorporate more of that texture.
I am thinking of including: liatris, gelber herold foxglove, black hollyhock, antique flemish poppies, reblooming tall bearded iris, masterwort, delphinium, monkshood, dahlia, silene, and columbine. Any observations about any of these plants, or to round out the bed, would be great, too. I have a hard time working out spacing and heights.
Thanks for reading and for any suggestions.
I'll add Russian sage, scabiosa of any kind, and pasque flower (not sure if that would work in your zone).
I think grasses are key though.
I have one of Piet Oudolf's books and I like that look. I'd never thought to design with that in mind, but it's a great idea for the theme of a planting.
Oh here I go again, banging the drum for umbellifers.....and there are literally dozens of them, from the dainty little torilis to the rampageous hieraceums - for sun - orlaya, ammi visnaga, anthriscus sylvestris, various eryngoes.fennel....for moist soil - pimpinella, chaerophyllum, astrantia, sweet cicely, for shade - cenolophium denudata, angleica sylvestris purpurea......
Also of note - valerian officianalis, gillenia, achilleas, gaura, saxifrage urbium, obviously grasses, stachys, indigofera, lespedeza, lathyrus (many) campanula lactiflora, thalictrum, linaria purpurea, scabious columbaria, althea cannabina.....
I also love these airy perennials (can you tell?)
There are some artemisia that give a feathery texture . There are so many of them. Some better behaved than others. I find A. ludoviciana "valery finnis" behave here. And A. frigida and filifolia to be very lacy but needing a semi arid or arid area or one with perfect drainage.
Here is a link that might be useful: Artimisia
I'll second Gaura lindheimeri/wandflower 'The Bride' but question if it's "short-lived" given my experience. It's up again in my west-facing bed this year, grown from seed via winter sowing in 2010 and shows no sign of expiring.
Are astilbes too common or short to suit you? I have so many of them--pink, white, rose, dark purple. They've been workhorses in my part-sun beds since 2008; I wouldn't be without them. Same goes for black snakeroot (Cimicifuga racemosa) which is quite tall & Japanese painted fern (which is quite short).
If you have sufficient sun, Caryopteris/blue mist shrub is quite delicate-looking.
Wow, what great responses! The picture is of a Piet Oudolf planting that just came up in a Google image search. I really love the textures-- it feels like a very emotional planting. I can recognize a few of the plants, but many are unknown to me.
Thanks for the great suggestions-- I have a lot to look up and plan out.
I had a mullein grow in the middle of the bed this year, and it had seeded a bit by the time I identified what it was. The foliage looked a lot like foxglove, just humongous. The flower spike was prehistoric looking, very dramatic, so I was sad to find out that it had to go. Once I identified it I discovered that it can be quite the reseeder, and the seed is viable for a very long time. I appreciated seeing it grow and flower because of its strangeness, but I might feel a whole lot differently at this time next year...
I found some astilbe at a plant sale this spring, and the flowers have just started. It is quite lovely and delicate.
My purple vitex bush grows these incredible feather-like flowers, although it died back to its base after our cold spells this winter. The vigorous leafing that started in early June (frighteningly late-- thankfully I read someone's post on GW and didn't pull it for dead!) should produce some flower this year.
So many grasses are invasive, and many others that I like are not hardy in my zone. My bed is sloped and quite well draining, but Pittsburgh's climate has a lot of precipitation in the spring and fall, and longer dry spells in the heat of the summer. I'm trying a dracula lily in there this year and hoping the good drainage will hold it through the winter. I lost my agastache and spurge this winter. I've also had no luck with lupine, although I'm trying again this year. Wish me luck!

The grass in the center is probably Deschampsia cespitosa. It is quite spectacular in bloom and glows when backlit by sun, very ethereal and fluffy. It blooms early in the season through summer since its a cool season grass. Keep in mind it helps when a photo is by someone like Saxon Holt and shot with perfect backlighting.
Other billowy, cloud-like grasses include:
Aristida purpurea
Panicum virgatum
Melica ciliata (silky spike melic)
Foxtail Barley
Silver foliage plants also add a nice airy feeling and give an area color variety & definition when flowers wane. Interesting seed heads are great for winter interest in gardens such as this one, especially among the grasses.
As grasses go, how about Muhlenbergia capillaries and Indian rice grass (Oryzopsis hymnodies). Muhlenbergias do not seed out to easily. The seed are viable only for a short time. I like Stipa barbatos for extreme featheriness. Stipa pennata is good also. Its called European FEATHER grass.
I'm sure Calamagrostis Karl Foerster would work--no reseeding from a number of plants after many, many years in my gardens and in bloom now--very feathery.
After careful research & observation, I grow just three types of grasses. For shade, Carex morrowii/variegated Japanese sedge grass 'Ice Dance;' for sun Pennisetum alopecuroides/dwarf fountain grass 'Hameln' and the above-mentioned Calamagrostis Karl Foerster. Other than a spring haircut, they're completely maintenance/care-free and add an elegant form to the garden. Critters ignore them which is just one more vote cast in favor of including them as is the fact they ignore the vagaries of weather, be it very wet, very dry or very cold.
My all time fave is Verbena bonariensis. The lacy blue/purple flowers move in the slightest breeze. It reseeds freely for me, but easily removed if it comes up where I don't want it. Bees, butterlies and goldfinches love it. I'm in Atlanta area and mine has been blooming for 6 weeks, still going strong.
Have a large clump just in front of my vitex, which is just starting to bloom. I cut the vitex way back and thought I'd lost it, but it's going to be wonderful. Hooray! It's another favorite.

Product description
On childhood holidays to the western coast, Tim Winton's days followed a joyous rhythm. In the mornings, the sun and surf kept him outside, in the water. In the afternoons, as the horizon wobbled with mirages and the wind came in from the ocean, he was driven inside, to books. In the 'simple, peculiar shack' that his family borrowed each year there was a small library: a room with four walls of books, a world unto itself. In this beautifully delicate memoir, Winton writes about his obsession with what happens where the water meets the shore about diving, dunes, beachcombing and the sense of being on the precarious, wondrous edge of things that haunts his novels. It is a book about the ebb and flow that became a way of life, and that shaped one of our finest writers. 'Both a serial romantic and a truly gifted novelist' Mariella Frostrup, Mail on Sunday

A new campaign is launching across West Yorkshire and York (14 July) to tackle the trade in illegal tobacco and stop dealers who sell to children.
The trade in cheap, illegal tobacco might seem like a victimless crime but it makes it easier for children to smoke and brings crime into local communities.
Councillor Jayne Booth, of the West Yorkshire Trading Standards Committee, said: "Children and young smokers are often targeted by people who sell illegal cigarettes, making it even easier for them to get hooked on smoking. The people making money out of this do not care who they sell to. This campaign is about raising awareness that illegal tobacco is not a victimless crime but harms neighbourhoods and brings crime into local communities. We are ready to respond to any intelligence we receive.

101 East | 14 Dec 2012 05:16 GMT | Politics, Environment, Australia
Ben Linden was surfing the waves only 100 metres from shore in July when a shark attacked and killed him. It was the fifth known fatal shark attack in Western Australia on surfers and beach-goers in the past year.A month later, another surfer, Jon Hines, suffered another savage attack and barely survived a stomach bite wound.
Live Box 201112191317520147
Surf skier Martin Kane was attacked by a four-metre-long Great White Shark just 150 metres off Perth's metropolitan coast. He survived after a friend came to his rescue.The state government has responded to fears that the beaches are no longer safe by issuing kill orders on sharks that pose "imminent threats" on beach-goers.Western Australia premier Colin Barnett announced a $7.12m package to fund the killing, tagging and research into shark movements. The money will be used to fund aerial patrols, tag sharks to monitor movements and reduce the risk of attacks along the coastline.But conservationists are angry at the "knee-jerk reaction". Tim Nicol of the Conservation Council of Western Australia also calls it a "guilty until proven innocent approach to sharks". They argue that climate change has pushed sharks inland and that the territorial animals are just responding to their natural instinct.Many shark species are already threatened with extinction. It is estimated that humans kill about 70 million sharks each year.But Australians like Keith Halnan welcome the kill order. The veteran surfer says more needs to be done to protect surfers who venture further out to catch a wave.Others in Western Australia want shark nets erected around cordoned swimming areas like in South Australia, but the government says it is not feasible due to the layout of the natural coastline and that the nets will harm other marine animals.Western Australia is known as the world's deadliest place for shark attacks but its beaches attract tens of thousands of tourists every year. Tour operators fear the attacks will hurt their business.The state government plans to propose that the federal government lift the protected species category off the Great White Shark to allow for commercial and recreational fishing. For more than a decade, the Great White Shark has been a protected species since the International Union for Conservation of Nature identified them as vulnerable. 101 East tackles the growing debate in Australia over how much of this fear of sharks is hyped up and asks if killing sharks is the solution.

The tour is very personal so you feel is quite exclusive. I suggest to try the whiskey liqueur if you are not a whiskey fan.
We had a very personal tour of this distillery with another couple. The great benefit of this whisky place was that it was still manufacturing & producing whisky to this day, unlike many others. We were shown all processes of the whisky making, and could literally feel the different grains, (Eg malt), see & smell each process, from heating up... More
I have nothing to compare it with but the staff at Strathisla Distillery were friendly and helpful. They were happy to tell me about their product and allow tastings. the site was beautiful and there was plenty of parking. Had I time to do a complete tour, I would have. next time....
We had a wonderful tour with Rebecca who made us feel very welcome and also had a good knowledge of the distillery. This is a beautiful distillery and even if you're not a fan of Scotch then it's still worth a visit.
The distillery itself is beautiful. Hands down one of the best! The tours were every 30 minutes, so that was good if you just missed one. There were two connoisseur tours available as well although I believe they must be pre-booked...check out their website. The staff was excellent on all levels. Our guide really knew her whisky and was a... More
Went on the tour which was reasonably priced and lasted about an hour. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Really interesting tour guide who knew her stuff. It seems a bit pot luck on whether it will be busy or quiet - it depends if a coach party has just arrived. In talking to them, just after lunch... More
We chose this out of all the distillery tours as it was near to where we were staying, and because of the association with the legendary brand, Chivas Regal. We turned up, without booking, and the tour began within minutes. Our guide, Mairi, was very knowledgable and passionate about the Distillery, as her Father had worked there. She was multi... More
Glenlivet might be a more popular distillery in the region but this one's definitely a class. We chose to tour the Strathisla distillery as it's the home of Chivas Regal and our dad is a Chivas loyal. It is the oldest distillery on the whisky trail; about 200 years old. But it's very well maintained. It's perfectly designed for the... More
The place where the oldest distillery in scotland is is really beautiful. You can see the source from where the pure water the use comes... The buiding is very nice.

Independent review calls Caltrans 'out of date' and cites 'culture of fear'
An independent review of the California Department of Transportation, released Thursday, called for sweeping reforms of the department to improve mobility in the face of environmental challenges and a decline in the number of miles driven by Californians.
Gov. Jerry Brown had ordered the $270,000 review – conducted by the State Smart Transportation Initiative at the University of Wisconsin, Madison – last May.
Joel Rogers, an author of the report, said in a news conference that his group found long-standing problems in Caltrans operations, including "a mission, vision and set of goals that are not well aligned" with current needs, such as legislation that mandates improved mobility while reducing traffic demand and greenhouse-gas emissions.
Caltrans "is still acting too much as your highway department, not your mobility department," Rogers said.
Rogers called Caltrans management practices "out of date," with no serious metrics to tie managers' performance to accomplishing the department's missions.
He also cited "a culture of fear" within Caltrans when it comes to deviating from standard policies – a theme often mentioned by critics of the department.
Brian Kelly, secretary of the California State Transportation Agency, which includes Caltrans, agreed that culture change would be key to getting better results from Caltrans, including a new emphasis on keeping highways in good repair.
"It's not OK to have highways ranked 48th nationally in terms of pavement condition" yet still prioritize new construction, he said. " 'Fix it first' makes sense," given current resources, he said.
The critique of Caltrans management and programs, while sometimes stinging, made no mention of the cost overruns, delays and construction errors on the new San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge, which has dominated much of the debate about the department's work for the last few years.
Kelly said he would favor greater openness in the operations of bridge project managers, including the Toll Bridge Program Oversight Committee, an executive interagency group whose meetings were held in private.
Given the benefits of better communications with the public on the $6.4 billion project, Kelly said, the exemption to the state's open-meetings law did not serve the project well.

Tom Sannicandro (born March 22, 1956)[1] is an American attorney and businessman, currently serving as a State Representative in the Massachusetts House of Representatives for Framingham and Ashland, and a leader on civil rights of persons with intellectual disabilities. As Chair of the Ashland School Committee in 2004, he beat Mary Connaughton for the seat.[2][3] Sannicandro has been called "a strong advocate for education funding and a strong voice for people with disabilities."[4]
Sannicandro is the father of a child with special needs under the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 and has leveraged these circumstances into a career, advocating as an attorney on behalf of disability needs, in particular children. — And now as a seated member of the Massachusetts, House of Representatives, endeavors to expand his contributions towards proactive avocation within the body. The implicit need for such representation is reflected by the two-thirds majority who entrusted this seat upon such a platform. In turn Sannicandro has implemented a website allowing his constituents fluid access and ability to influence the process.[5]

Paper Wasp Problem
Please Help! These guys have gotten so aggressive I can't even set foot in my garden without being attacked. I really like the little guys since they look cool, and keep all the other garden nasties from munching on my veggies. Earlier this year I removed a couple of large nests from some wind chimes hanging in the tree in the middle of my garden. They seemed to disappear for a while before they took up refuge in another wind chime hanging on my porch right above my favorite chair. They weren't building a nest though. Since then I've spotted huge clusters of them huddling in any structure they can find, and although there's no nest to protect they are still just as aggressive as ever.
I just want to be able to work in my garden without having to kill them all. Is there some organic method I can use to keep them at bay while still allowing some of them into my garden?
There are several species of wasps that build those paper nests and the most aggressive species is the Yellow Jacket. There is no real way to calm the wasps down if they are the Yellow Jackets, the other species, I have found, arenot all that aggressive or need control.
If this nest is somplace that really needs removal and is fairly small a cheap hair spray can be used to control them so the nest can be removed. Or you could, at night, bag the nest in an opaque plastic bag.

Hey there - wondered if someone would help.
When I fist loaded the Monkey Island game I just unlocked it and then booted it straight up, I didn't enter my telltale email address or password into the little pop up window.
I've since found out that the bonus treasure map game requires it and even though the website knows I'm ready for the second map, the game doesn't. I can't find a way to get the game to let me enter my email address again now, does anyone know how.
I've tried backing up my save files and reinstalling but that did nout.
Thanks for your time.

I made it through the shower
The gods must have a sense of humor....all of you who have been so patient with my venting over this wacky wedding should appreciate the event that was my day.
The shower was today; I woke up early so that I could go to the gym before leaving for the shower (hours away in another state); I was so tired that when I reached for my vitamins, I grabbed my headache medicine, took one, then realized what I'd done. Naturally, its meant only to be taken at night, becase it causes extreme drowsiness! Of course, that meant I couldn't drive, but I couldn't very well call and say that I wasn't going to make it to the showerbecause I had accidentally overmedicated myself! I had to recruit my sister to drive me to the shower, and sat through it feeling drunk.
In retrospect, that was probablly best- I was seated with a table of women I've never met, the youngest one in her 60's, the oldest 93(I'm 23)- and not one of them who wanted to talk to me. The bride came over to greet me, complemented me on my shawl, and promptly turned to her mother to complain that she (mom) should have purchased on as nice as mine for her (bride) instead of the tacky one she was wearing. (I couldn't help but agree, so I politely ignored the comment. )
I then was recruited to take pictures of the bride opening her gifts- except she didn't open them. Her bridesmaids opened them and handed them to her, and she stood with a microphone announcing what she'd received from each guest. She looked like she was trying to auction them off. Then she opened all the cards and announced whether they contained cash, a check, or a gift certificate- at least she refrained from announcing how much!
I can't wait to see what the wedding is going to be like. My BF is going to have to be very, very nice to me if he wants me to go!
Mimii, of course you're going to go! We want all the juicy details! ;-) I enjoyed your tale of the shower...I've never heard of the b'maids opening the gifts and the bride standing there with a microphone! Yes....it would look like an auction! hahaha! That's just wrong....;-) Perhaps they felt it wouldn't take as long with others opening them.....ah...who knows?
Thanks for the story...we're looking forward to "the wedding story"!

1/2 whiskey barrel
I have a 1/2 whiskey barrel that I'd like to use in the garden BUT it doesn't have a bottom. It was rotted out when I took the dirt out of it. Anyone one here used one without a bottom? I've seen them kind of buried and flowers spilling out of them but they had bottoms!! Thanks for any suggestions.
My neighbor down the road has one with iris' in it. I never thought Iris' as a good choice for those. However, I don't see why you cannot use it without a bottom. So long as it's got the bands that hold it together. Just use smaller things in it instead of iris'. I'd plant things that flow over the edges, some pansies, marigolds, a few taller things but not things like iris'. :)
I posted this whiskey barrel awhile back, sorie...& guess what, it's very old & had to be moved because we are siding our house...there was no bottom left in it! I'm hoping to still use it if we can move it back to the spot in the upcoming months...don't see why we can't as long as the hoops that hold the boards stay in-tack!
I planted Hosta, Chives, Coral Bells in it & since it's fairly close to the house, they have wintered over quite a few yrs. now. Also had German Ivy but it didn't winter over. Jeanne S.
Actually, the lack of a bottom is a NON-issue as far as planting goes. The barrell will simply serve as a border of sorts as well as offering some 'extra' winter protection as jeannespines noted.
Go for it! And be sure to post pics when it's all planted =]

I watched the Democratic National Convention and noticed they were describing a patriot as someone who pays their fair share of taxes. A patriot, by definition, is someone who vigorously supports their country. It is not related to how much a person pays in taxes, but more properly is measured in how committed they are to the principles and ideals of their country.
Judging by commentaries after your recent Times articles, absolutely no one has anything good to say about the just-opened bridge over Jesse Jewell Parkway. The bridge has actually become the local "joke" in many conversations when anyone mentions Gainesville.
It's important to get beyond various secondary arguments and focus on main principles. In talking with various people, both conservative and liberal, our core political debate comes down to two questions:
A few weeks ago I walked into a local restaurant to have a quick brunch before I headed off to a meeting for work.
Have you noticed that the Democrats have quit touting Obamacare and have started badmouthing the Republican party, i.e., Mitt Romney and his Mormon religion?
I agree with Myra Meades' comments about cutting library hours affecting education. What Adrian Mixon apparently did not take into consideration is the fact that most of the students who use the library computers in the evening, probably can't afford them at home. A student today can't just bring home a book and do their homework like their parents did. Mine is a family who uses this service because we can't afford a home computer.
Wake up people! You want to get a start on fixing the economy, let's demand that we are no longer subjects of a kingdom run by oil companies. Gas just went up 39 cents in three days. Why? Because the media said it would; because the oil companies wanted it.
My first thought as I saw your Wednesday headline, "Library cuts hours, closes weekends" was: Where are our priorities?
Those first few years when our sons and daughters receive their drivers license can be a tense and prayerful time for parents every time they drive. We always hope they'll drive safely and come home alive, along with their friends.
Like most North Georgians, I take pride and comfort in the excellence of Gainesville's hospital and doctors. And as part of a family covered by UnitedHealthCare are insurance, I enjoyed the security of knowing that the coverage we'd purchased would be there for us if the need arose.
I found an answer to all the negative political ads:
John Stossel's article in the Aug. 13 Times about wars being a waste is right on target, but he makes one premise which I find inexplicable. He points out that Mitt Romney is vehemently against the $500 billion cuts to the military proposed by President Barack Obama, and then states that defense is an area where he thinks the Democrats could make cuts in view of America's rapid path toward default, but also that Democrats "rarely cut anything."
I am writing not in support of any one candidate, but to urge every registered voter in Hall County to go to the polls and vote in the upcoming runoff and again in November.
At 28 years old, use of the term "the old days" might imply to some that I'm referring to the early 2000s or the 1990s. I suppose they would be permitted to make that assumption according to my age.
This coming November has got to be the most important election this nation has ever had.
Many people are like sheep concerning buzzwords. One participates and the rest follow the herd. Eventually, a buzzword becomes annoying, trite and ready for banishment.
The front page headline Sunday in The Times read "Where have all the voters gone?" Let's go back just a few months to the fall of 2014 when midterm elections were in the news. Recall The Times writing about how politicians in Hall County were concerned that SPLOST VII would not be passed by voters for a seventh time if SPLOST VII was placed on the November 2014 ballot?
I read with concern the two recent items in The Times regarding alleged bullying at Myers Elementary (March 7 article, March 19 letter to the editor). Quite honestly, I was confused; I thought perhaps I had read the name of the school incorrectly, and even more confused when I read the principal involved in the articles. I started shaking my head, thinking,"Are you kidding me? Are they really accusing Beth Hudgins of dealing improperly with a situation so potentially hurtful?"
I am writing in response to the article, "Bullying incidents test school policy in Hall County, Gainesville" of March 7. It saddened me to read such negative words about Beth Hudgins.
I recently read in The Times, and I was not really surprised, what sweet idea America has now: Tens of thousands of immigrant children are allowed here, in the good old u.s.a. via Florida.
Amidst the horror and grief of Selma and Ferguson, I heard a tender story that I would like to share with our readers.
Mary Drummer is right on about Georgia's senators being wrong to have sent a letter to Iran. They are certainly overstepping their place and proving once again that they, of the Republican party, are incapable of sensibly leading this country's government.
I am writing in response to the article from March 7, "Bullying incidents test school policy in Hall County, Gainesville." As a parent of a child in elementary school, the subject is concerning to me. However, I am not worried at all because my child goes to Myers Elementary School. I'm not worried because I have 100 percent faith in my son's teacher and his principal to do the right thing for my child, and those in his class.
There have been some recent headlines about home sales falling. Those headlines are misleading. Housing sales look different from one month to another and from one quarter to another.
If Hall County government/Chamber of Commerce/Hall Progress 2015 could be truthful about the SPLOST, the following is what they would say:
Sens. Isakson and Perdue: As your constituent, I am writing to tell you how dismayed I am at your act of signing a letter to Iran, a foreign enemy country and its leaders, while our president is conducting diplomatic negotiations along with our allies to reduce, verify and contain Iran's nuclear program.
While there are frequent conflicts between what is good for the environment and what is good for the economy, the carbon fee and dividend plan proposed by the Citizens Climate Lobby is a refreshing exception.
The General Assembly considering removing legal ads from the legal county newspaper? No! Some folks don't have or can't use computers. Just cut out something on the useless list. Legal ads are on the useful list, I think.
On more than one occasion, I have taken pen to paper to offer my criticism of your newspaper. It is expected that we subscribers will do that. When a newspaper does something that I feel is commendable, I will also offer my praise as well as extending my subscription another quarter.

text: 000 FXUS65 KTFX 262345 AFDTFX AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE GREAT FALLS MT 545 PM MDT Thu Mar 26 2015 UPDATED AVIATION SECTION .DISCUSSION... Tonight through Saturday...The forecast area will be under the influence of a strong upper ridge into Friday night. The upper ridge which was over the Pacific Northwest Thursday afternoon will move to western Montana Friday and then to eastern Montana Friday night. The main weather feature to deal with during the forecast period will be an upper trough which will move into central Montana Saturday afternoon or possibly evening. The associated cold front is expected to reach the continental divide late Friday night then move through the plains and southwest Montana Saturday morning. Snow levels from 8000 to 9000 feet ahead of the front will fall to between 6000 and 7000 feet behind the front. Snow accumulations up to several inches are expected in the mountains of the Rocky Mountain Front. For the plains and valleys expect scattered showers Saturday. Would have considered going with higher chances of showers but models differ with details of the upper trough. High wind watch...Gusty winds are expected with and behind the cold front Saturday but am not too excited about a high wind event. Winds aloft are not all that great. In addition winds aloft could be diminishing when there is maximum daytime heating. Actually more of a problem with high winds could be over Blaine County where there will be strong pressure rises behind a Canadian cold front Saturday afternoon which moves into that area and also where winds aloft could be possibly as high as 50 knots. At this time do not have enough confidence to issue a high wind watch but the situation will need to be monitored. As for the current high wind watch confidence level for a high wind event is only around 30 percent at this time. Can not rule out a stray wind gust approaching 50 knots with afternoon showers on Saturday. Record temperatures...Still expect widespread high temperatures Friday to be near record levels. However a portion of southwest Montana and also a few locations in Fergus and Blaine Counties could also be near record levels Saturday afternoon. Blank Saturday Night through Thursday...Period begins with high pressure ridging redeveloping over the northern Rockies. Swaths of moisture crossing through the top of the ridge will bring scattered cloud cover, but no precipitation is expected from Sun thru Mon night. Forecast models continue to indicate arrival of a quick-moving shortwave trof on Tues that will produce areas of light valley rain/mtn snow on Tue aftn/eve. Lower elevation sites along the Rocky Mtn Front and parts of the Hi-Line and southwest MT could see some rain/snow mix or light snow Tues night as colder air mixes with waning moisture before the system moves off into eastern MT. Central and Hi-Line counties could also see a period of strong, gusty winds on Tues with the trof`s passage, resulting from both mixing of 60 mph winds aloft and a sufficiently tight surface pressure gradient. Models are in general agreement that cool, moist northwest flow aloft will persist during the latter half of the week with another Pacific shortwave trof coming into the state on Thurs, accompanied by a mix of light rain/snow. Waranauskas && .AVIATION... UPDATED 2345Z. Mid and high level clouds will continue to move across the area but as high pressure aloft builds, clouds should decrease after 18z Friday. Gusty west winds will slowly decrease after 02z but will increase again after 18z Friday with the strongest gusts along the Rocky Mountain Front.

Hynix, Samsung, LG and SI develop Serial Port Mem
Hynix, LG, Samsung Electronics and Silicon Image Join to Develop Serial Port Memory
Hynix Semiconductor, LG Electronics , Samsung Electronics, and Silicon Image, today announced the formation of an industry consortium that promotes Serial Port Memory Technology (SPMT) for broad market adoption as an industry standard. As the first-of-its-kind memory specification for dynamic random access memory (DRAM), SPMT will initially target the mobile handset market, enabling a new generation of devices capable of running highly data intensive, media-rich applications while at the same time extending battery life.
"I am extremely pleased to have such a stellar group of companies come together to form the SPMT Consortium to develop and promote a new memory interface architecture specification for the growing demands of media-rich mobile devices," said Jim Venable, chief technology evangelist of SPMT, LLC. "Serial Port Memory Technology will represent a big step forward by offering mobile handset designers the ability to expand their horizon for a new generation of products."
As future generations of handsets take on more functions typically seen in laptops, and as the line between cell phones and handheld media-intensive devices blur, new memory architectures will be required to handle demands for ever greater bandwidth while keeping power low and cost down.
"Successful solutions for mobile products need to deliver increased functionality and features while still providing extended battery life," said JB Kim, senior vice president of memory products at Hynix Semiconductor. "SPMT is uniquely positioned to deliver on the requirements of leading-edge mobile devices and we are proud to be part of the team that will define the next-generation memory interface for this growing market."
The SPMT Consortium was founded to provide the technology capable of delivering the bandwidth flexibility and scalability required by new generations of mobile devices, all at significantly reduced pin count, low power consumption, and at a lower cost.
The SPMT Consortium's founding members (promoters) form the governing body of the organization and are, together with contributor members, responsible for developing the SPMT specification which features:
- Pin count reduction by a minimum of 40 percent compared to existing DRAM technologies;
- Flexible bandwidth ranging from 200 MB/s to 12.6 GB/s and higher;
- Single or multiple port configurations connecting to a single SPMT-enabled memory chip.
"As mobile handset devices evolve we are going to see a growing demand for media-rich applications supported by highly advanced memory devices," said Myung Ryu of the development procurement team at LG Electronics. "Participating as a promoter in the SPMT Consortium helps us to ensure that the right technology is available to the industry at the right time for future product offerings."
Opportunities to participate in the advancement of the Serial Port Memory Technology exist for contributors and adopters. The SPMT promoters welcome companies and organizations to contact the Consortium about joining the group. The application to join and information about membership fees can be found at http://www.spmt.com.
- Contributors work in cooperation with the promoters and participate in the definition of future SPMT specifications. Companies interested in becoming a contributor may submit their request for membership on the SPMT website.
- Adopters of the SPMT specification pay no royalties to the SPMT Consortium on any products resulting from the implementation of the specification. The SPMT Consortium will assess an annual fee from all adopters to help fund the marketing, administration and licensing activities of the Consortium.
"At Samsung, we are dedicated to developing cutting-edge technologies and advanced processes to create new products that are of slim and simple design," said Seijin Kim, vice president of memory products at Samsung Electronics. "We are pleased to work with the SPMT Consortium."
"We are looking forward to contributing our high-speed serial technology and expertise to the SPMT specification," said Eric Almgren, vice president of business development and intellectual property licensing at Silicon Image, Inc. "As new applications like high-definition 1080p video become a reality in the mobile handset market, advanced memory technology will be required to make such features a reality and SPMT is well positioned to lead that market segment."
The SPMT promoters also announced the formation of the SPMT, LLC, the entity chartered with managing the day-to-day activities of administering the SPMT specification.

Just come back from here today. Didn't mind it, it's very simple and plain. It's apparently being restored at the moment but it appears thhat the 1 guy doing the restoration is also the same guy who runs the bar and tends to the desk lol. Location is good in a residential area, close to Rembrantplein Square and he red light district. Staff are friendly. I was in a room on the top floor (5th floor) witth some pretty steep stairs. Quite a task to climb after a day out around the city. The room definitely needs decorating, television didn't work and there's no window in bathroom so can smell a bit damp. My daughter stayed in a room on the 3rd floor which was nicer but still in need of a revamp. There's sooooooo much space in the bar area which no one is using, the place really seems llike it's wasted at the moment. There is no smoking of any sort in the rooms but there is an area in the basement where you can smoke anything, use internet etc. This has been restored very nicely. I'm not sure i will go back simply because for the price we paid, we could stay in nicer places. It was only £5 cheaper than the Ibis. Oh, if you do not like church bells DO NOT stay here!

winter edelweiss help...
AnnaLeah(6)October 22, 2013
Last spring I bought four edelweiss plants and they bloomed over this past summer and are doing well..my concern is winter temps are among us here in the midwest and I have read that I need to cover my plants for the winter so they don't die. Is this true? And if so..what do I cover them with and do I need to continue to water regularly over the winter? Thanks!
abgardeneer(Z3, Calgary)
Covering them is absolutely bizarre advice! Edelweiss are alpine plants that are adapted to winter temperatures as cold and colder than any "polar vortex" might bring to your area. If they don't survive your conditions, it will be much more likely due to poor drainage, come the inevitable melt.

No, it's not the line up for some sort of dream Aussie hip-hop festival, it's just 6 of Australia's best MCs coming together together on the Bliss N Eso track Reservoir Dogs, set to be featured on their forthcoming album Circus In The Sky – and today they've released a teaser of what we can expect from the video clip.
By just looking at the guest list of 360, Drapht, Seth Sentry and Pez, it's impossible to think that the track would be anything other than amazing and then when you find out the clip iss inspired by the cult classic film Reservoir Dogs, well, it's almost overwhelming – you have until the end of this sentence to calm yourself.
The track itself is apparently also heavily influenced by the film, and also BnE's collective dream to be involved in some sort of heist, as they told us when they came by the studio. Check out that interview below for more goods on the tune.
The full track and clip will be available from Thursday, 20th June, so you won't have to wait for too long before the below trailer blossoms into a full feature. Get keen, cunts, as Bliss N Eso would say.
