The RoomThe room was small, built in the shape of a sphere. The walls, floor and ceiling were all painted a bright, blinding white, creating a cold and unfeeling setting. There was no visible discrepancy to the sphere's shape. There was nothing else in the room, and it was kept lit by an unidentifiable source of light. There were no windows, and the only door that led outside blended in seamlessly with the walls. There was no way to tell left from right, front from back. And in the middle of the sphere sat a man.The Room11 years ago in Horror More Like This
His raven black hair was long, dirty and fell to his shoulders in matted locks. He wore a plain white shirt, or at least a shirt that had once been white. Now it had been stained a dull brown-red by blood. He wore a pair of khaki trousers, torn and ripped almost to shreds, and his feet were bare. His nails were long, untrimmed and sharp. His arms were cuffed firmly behind his back, and no matter what he tried they would not come free. His eyes fixed themselves on the section of the sp

E se alguém te der um poema?
Conjunto de palavras raras e místicas
Com confluências e metafísicas
E que exprimam amor disfarçado de arte
Porque o amor não é uma arte
Mas um sentimento
E é no meio desse tormento
Que as palavras surgem nuas
E se tornam ternuras
Onde as lágrimas correm abruptas
E é nesse estranho engenho
Que roda sem timoneiro
Que perdemos a razão
E a única solução
é talvez escrever...sem hesitação
Porque te quero dar cor
E um poema com amor
Disfarçado de arte
Que não rimando com o coração
Mais fácil lá se aloja
Do que uma simples prova
De arte pela arte
A arte tem amor
O amor não tem razão
A razão tem alguém
A reger-nos a mão
Nesse caso o amor é livre como o ar
E é esse ar que respiro que te quero dar
Disfarçado de papel...de arte. de amor.

Please know that even though it is quiet.

With pointless conversations.
Used as space fillers.

Expecting a response in return,

How long does it take to turn? I lay slumped against a wall, my hands bloody after pressing against the wound on my arm. My head is groggy from passing out and waking to the unrelenting noise. I can hear them in the next room, clawing at the door like animals. My minds a mess, Im ok, I can make it, why now? Why must I fall to them?
I look at some broken glass by my feet, Id contemplate suicide if I had the guts to do so. You could almost say its not their fault, like a wolf hunting for food. Theyre only doing what they know best, if they know anything. Sadly that involved my current situation.
Shut up you bastards! I shout to all of them, all of them outside the door and outside the building. Every last one. What the hell am I supposed to do now? The incessant moaning breaks through my thoughts. I pick up a shard of glass and pop it into the pocket of my jeans. Its still good for slicing, if I last that long. Might as well see what ro

The dynamic between core staff, volunteer staff, and the community can at times be pure quality dArama.
It's worth noting that for years I've worked pretty hard to remain neutral on community politics. Today, I'm going to shatter that concept.
Needless to say, I am extremely politically aware of the inner workings of the deviantART community. I read *a lot* of journals, comments, forums, chat rooms. I have fake accounts. I spy.
But I don't spend my time talking politics, instead I focus internally at deviantART designing technologies and implementing understandings with core staff to address the issues I see pop up.
It's time to take a moment to be a bit more petty.

In the inner workings of our politics exists the soul of deviantART. What is this place? What was it meant to do? What does it do? What could we do better? And it's the politics that give insight into how well the greater plan is running.

weed killer murdered my grass
I used a weed killer of a reputable brand that advertised "wont kill your grass" well the weeds are all gone but now my grass is all brown and dead, and in other spots there were so many weeds that i have bare spots in between what little grass is left alive.
is there anything I can do for the brown grass.. will fertilizer magically bring it back to life?
and for the bare spots should i seed??
Im young this is my first lawn and im on a budget so re-sodding the whole yard is out of the question. is there anything i can do to save my little yard??
Yeah, lots and lots of water to try leaching it past the root zone, but then you don't indicate when this happened. So, I don't know if it is already too late. There in Texas, it's possible you have St. Augustinegrass. Many labels say the product won't burn the lawn, but they also state not to use on St. Augustine or a certain variety of St. Augustine, like Floratam. Other than those, herbicides formulated for warm season grasses are usually pretty harmlesss to the other species. Ordinarily when this happens, the grass does survive and return at a later time. Yours being a warm season type, I can't speculate when that will be - this season or next year. Perhaps someone else will have a better guess. I'm sure you don't need me to say it but I'm gonna LOL. In the future, please read the whole label before applying and be sure to apply at recommended rates. More is not better.
Tell us what type of grass you have so someone can direct you in caring for it. There are different maintenance practices for almost all the different warm season type species, and proper care is your best hope for reviving it right now, even though it's brown.
Echoing what bestlawn has asked, what kind of grass do you have? And what specific weed killer did you use?
Here's a recent topic that might be relevant to this discussion: Fescue suddenly yellowing
I no longer trust weed killers that supposedly won't harm grass. I burned up sections of my lawn last June with Weed be Gone because the weather turned warmer. I think the only way to use the stuff is when the soil is moist and the temps are cool. If its been hot and dry where you are I don't think the grass will come back. It didn't for me.
Unless a product is specifically labeled that it is safe for St. Augustine, it will likely kill the grass. Once St. Augustine is straw brown, it is dead. No amount of water or fertilizer will bring it back. This from a person that has a 50 year old organically maintained St. Augustine lawn.
I just used Ortho weed-be-gone MAX (the spray bottle that you connect to your hose). Spoke to a Scotts rep at Home Depot this past Satuday, and he told me how to use it all over my lawn. My main culprit was clover in mass quantities all over the lawn area. Sprayed it on, admittedly used the entire bottle on less than the recommended square footage of lawn area, but noticed the clover starting to wilt the next day. Will keep an eye on the clover and grass over the next couple days. BTW, I'm up in the NW suburbs of Boston, by Nashua. Hope this stuff works well. My neighbor spent $160 on a lawn co. to spray to kill his clover. Doing the job, but that's big bucks to spend for me. I need two more Ortho bottles to finishe my entire lawn area, and I'll have been out just $40.
urban sprawl has pretty much annexed much of southern NH along the Rtes 3/93/95 corridors as suburbs of Boston. I'm in Pepperell, MA, 10 minutes SW of Nashua, to be exact.
Back to the weed issue for a moment. I just finished spraying weed-be-gone MAX over the rest of my lawn area. And I did ID the weeds as white clover, not black medic, as I read about in another post. The clover is really wilting nicely. MY QUESTION is what exactly will happen to the dying clover?? Can I expect it to just die and remain visible on the lawn, or will it shrivel up and become less visible with the grass growing and being mowed all season long?
I'm the author of the linked thread above but I have good and bad news for you related to that.
The good: my lawn has almost 100% rebounded after the yellowing. However, I think I was lucky to get cool temps and a lot of rain in the days following the application.
The bad: I have fescue which is "safe" to use those products on and my grass merely turned yellow with little browning. If you do in fact have St. Augustine, I'm afraid your grass will not rebound this easily. :( Good luck!
"what exactly will happen to the dying clover?"
It will die. It'll get all twisty, then shrivel and turn brown. There will be bare spots where the clover used to be. If you have KBG, it'll spread to fill in those bare spots. If you have fescue, you'll need to overseed to get grass in those bare spots.
The weed killer i used is Bayer Advanced for southern lawns
it says for st Augustine &other southern lawns...
is it possible the grass got burned, we ahd a good rain (REALLY GOOD) a few days after but then it was hot..
so could the grass just be burned a little not dead..
But it also says not to use on Floratam variety of St. Augustine. What is your grass?
Yes, that is possible but we can't know the affect it had on the root system. This would determine whether it recovers and only knowing the variety will help with the answer. Normally, herbicides will not harm the grass types for which it is labeled. If over-applied, it might cause yellowing but that is temporary.
I used Weed-be-Gone and killed my St. Augustine grass just a couple of weeks ago too. Now my beautiful yard looks like hell. Large dried up spots. I'm so ashamed, I didn't read the label. Since it's my front yard, I can't wait until next season for nature to take its coarse, so I've spent the last couple of days installing plugs for instant results.
Weed Killer on my precious St Augustine grass... I'll never do that again!
Do you know what kind of grass it was?
Being in TX it is a good chance you had Saint Augustine. You cannot use any post emergence herbicide on Saint Augustine except Atrazine. All others will kill it that contain 2,4-D, MSMA, and Dicamba the most popular combination of herbicides.
If it was Saint Augustine, and you used something like Weed-b-Gone, your Saint Augustin Be-Gone, dead, and will not come back ever again no mater what you do.
Apparently the U of Fl does not find that 2-4d damages SA and I have to agree, see below- spot sprayed misc weeds two weeks ago and the grass is fine- it got the dollarweed but is slow and hit or miss on the violets- However I would be cautious as usual in hot weather- probabaly will not be able to use it again til fall.
SpeedZone St. Augustine Formula is also unusual in containing the herbicide 2,4-D which was generally thought to be damaging to St. Augustinegrass. In the mid 1980s Dr. Wayne Currey, then turfgrass weed scientist for the University of Florida, observed considerable difference in the St. Augustinegrass injury among different phenoxy herbicide products. The differences were due to the concentration of herbicides other than 2,4-D, particularly mecoprop (once called MCPP), in the mixtures. From many experiments that I have performed in South Florida, mecoprop and not 2,4-D appears to be the killer of St. Augustinegrass. SpeedZone St. Augustine Formula contains a reduced concentration of mecoprop, and I have not seen injury to St. Augustinegrass from labeled rates applied at any season of the year.
Here is a link that might be useful: Broadleaf herbicides for St. Augustinegrass turf
natalia, Does anyone carry Fertilome products in your area? Actually what I used is Fertilome Weed Free Zone which is the same formulation as Speedzone Southern and Speedzone St Augustine- just remember that it's getting hot right now.
Here is a link that might be useful: Weed Free Zone
I used the same product and followed the directions spot spraying the weeds. The grass is dead but I had to dig the weeds out because they were still flourishing, then I spot reseeded.
Took the product back to the store where I got it and got a refund.
I'm in north Florida and just did the same thing. I used bayer advanced for southern lawns. Said its for st. Augustine and other southern lawns. Well it killed my st Augustine. Didn't kill the centipede. i may have applied it too late in the year? it was pretty hot, but applied in the evening while it was cool. Anyways, I wonder if it will come back next season????
You can speed up the return with a few flats of new grass. It will cost you a little more than a dollar per flat but they spread very well in the fall and spring.
I'd like to see a picture where the centipede was spared and the St Augustine was killed. Can you post one?

Looking for a new adventure!!!!
I am someone who enjoys having a good time. I love to make people laugh, and sometimes my sarcasm is taken the wrong way. I always have a smile on my face, and want someone who is the same way. I graduated college in 2010, with a degree in Kinesiology. I played four years of college baseball, and one year of professional baseball. After professional baseball I began chasing my career. I just want to find someone with good family values, a sense of humor, and enjoys having a good time. When it comes to things I really enjoy doing I love to spend time with family and friends. They are the ones that have always been there for me. I love going to Angels games, and ducks games. Sporting events in general are always a very fun time. I love to go zip lining, hang at the family barn, camp, bonfires, and most of all live life with no regrets. I was born an raised in Whittier California, and now live on my own in the same city. I love this town but it's to small and everyone knows everyone which makes things difficult. In a girl I want someone who is family orientated, loves sports, country lover, enjoys horses, a great sense of humor, good personality, loves to laugh, great smile, loves get aways, good head on your shoulders, and also being a honest person. Hopefully you're out there.

Siberian Permafrost Melting 1023

We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).

Again, from all the science it seems like global warming will be a catastrophe, but it would be nice to find a few more bog people.
And yes, I have a degree in anthropology.
And the polar ice cap is melting fast too... Most of us may live to see it all but disappear. Think of it as the mother of all ice cubes, and imagine what the melting is going to do --- dilute the 'drink' (which will change water density which will change ocean water flow, which will seriously mess with weather patterns) and once it finishes melting, it's function as a thermal buffer disappears and global warming will really start to hurt us.
I'm thinking that people are underestimating that last point.
David Bellamy said, "We criticise people from the third world countries for not conserving their rainforests, but when it comes to our peat bogs which are actually a rarer habitat than the tropical rainforest, we are doing a much worse job". (The Times, Saturday November 25, 2000).
Exploitation by afforestation, conversion to agriculture and commercial peat extraction has destroyed much of our peat lands. In the last century we lost 75% of our blanket bogs and 94% of our raised bogs. Gardeners and horticulture used a staggering 2.55 million cubic metres of peat each year. In the UK there is less than 9,500 acres of near natural raised bog left.
"Gee, even if there were a 'Global Warming', it just means we can go on destroying American peat bogs, because there are new ones thawing off in Siberia."
So, wait....if it's not natural for this formerly "permafrost" peat bog to be melting, how is it that this peat moss was, at some point, able to grow in the first place?

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
A bad case of heads buried in the sand
Audit needed into police headquarters fiasco
In the original version of the British sitcom Yes, Minister, the cynical Sir Humphrey Appleby offered up advice about the consequences of investigations.
"Never set up an inquiry unless you know in advance what its findings will be," advised Appleby, providing a road map for decisions taken by real-life elected officials.
Audits and inquiries can inflict a tremendous amount of political damage. The review of Winnipeg's fire-paramedic station replacement program, for example, was a disaster for Mayor Sam Katz, as it concluded his friend, Phil Sheegl, Winnipeg's former CAO, oversaw an over-budget and badly managed construction project plagued by unfair contract awards.
The pilloried fire-paramedic station project cost taxpayers $3.3 million more than its original budget. The new police headquarters is far more problematic, as it now stands at $76 million above its original target.
Like the fire-paramedic program, the new cop shop has also been plagued by amendments to the construction model and several sole-sourced contracts. City council, however, chose to follow Appleby's advice on Wednesday rather than get to the bottom of the police HQ conundrum.
In an astounding decision, council voted 9-7 to kill a motion to conduct an audit of the project. All seven members of executive policy committee -- plus Couns. Devi Sharma (Old Kildonan) and Thomas Steen (Elmwood) -- voted against any further investigation in what appeared to be a whipped vote.
It's disappointing to see nine members of council insert their noggins in the sand. It's also amazing, as several know there are serious problems with the police HQ.
Transcona Coun. Russ Wyatt, for example, said it's obvious "absolute incompetence" at the highest level of the civic administration plagued the police HQ. But in the next breath, Wyatt said an audit would be a waste of money because it would only come to the same conclusion as the fire-paramedic station audit: The individual leading the project was "way over his head," in Wyatt's words.
Without mentioning Sheegl's name, Wyatt repeated the last batch of police-HQ cost overruns -- $17.2 million in design changes not covered by a toothless "guaranteed maximum price" agreement -- ultimately cost the former CAO his job.
Wyatt's ostrich imitation led several councillors to point out only an audit can determine precisely what went wrong. "Whether we realize it or not, we've lost the public trust," said St. Boniface Coun. Dan Vandal.
Katz's uncomfortable coalition would have none of it. St. Norbert Coun. Justin Swandel, who dismissed the fire-paramedic station audit as flawed, claimed council was kept abreast of every change to the police HQ project.
That simply isn't true. A 2011 report about $28 million in cost overruns didn't mention a proposed "guaranteed maximum price" agreement would be based on a design that was only 30 per cent complete.
Nonetheless, Swandel derided his colleagues for not reading reports. "If you want an audit, maybe we should audit IQ around this chamber," he said.
But the deputy mayor wasn't done. He then accused the media of selectively reporting facts and claimed all answers to questions about the project could be obtained "in five minutes."
In reality, the city kept basic information about the police HQ hidden from the public for more than three years. The initial 2010 city request for proposals for a consultant to design the police HQ was only published Friday, after the Free Press asked why this set of documents was not posted on the city's website.
These documents, by the way, show the city amended the police HQ construction job to a design-build model on June 8, 2010, near the beginning of the procurement phase for the project. In other words, the city made a deliberate, early decision to ask for a design that was "30 per cent complete" as part of a plan to finish the design on the fly.
This is very, very important. A new report to council -- held up by Katz and Swandel as the definitive account of the police-HQ saga -- claims the construction model was amended because of design problems discovered partway through the project.
This is an obfuscation, if not an outright lie. The construction model was amended in June 2010 and the first design contract wasn't awarded until August 2010. Design problems were not reported until 2011 -- and may have resulted, ironically, from the early decision to reduce the scope of the initial design work as part of changes to the construction model.
"Read the report, the answers are there," Katz implored as part of his argument against an audit. No, they are not, Mr. Mayor. Do the right thing and request an audit.

About Bartley Kives
Bartley Kives wants you to know his last name rhymes with Beavis, as in Beavis and Butthead. He aspires to match the wit, grace and intelligence of the 1990s cartoon series.
Bartley joined the Free Press in 1998 as a music critic. He spent the ensuing 7.5 years interviewing the likes of Neil Young and David Bowie and trying to stay out of trouble at the Winnipeg Folk Festival before deciding it was far more exciting to sit through zoning-variance appeals at city hall.
In 2006, Bartley followed Winnipeg Mayor Sam Katz from the music business into civic politics. He spent seven years covering city hall from a windowless basement office.
He is now reporter-at-large for the Free Press and also writes an outdoor-recreation column called Offroad for the Outdoors page.
A canoeist, backpacker and food geek, Bartley is fond of conventional and wilderness travel. He is the author of A Daytripper's Guide to Manitoba: Exploring Canada's Undiscovered Province, the only comprehensive travel guidebook for Manitoba – and a Canadian bestseller, to boot. He is also co-author of Stuck In The Middle: Dissenting Views of Winnipeg, a collaboration with photographer Bryan Scott and the winner of the 2014 Carol Shields Winnipeg Book Award.
Bartley's work has also appeared on CBC Radio and Citytv as well as in publications such as The Guardian, explore magazine and National Geographic Traveler. He sits on the board of PEN Canada, which promotes freedom of expression.
Born in Winnipeg, he has an arts degree from the University of Winnipeg and a master's degree in journalism from Ottawa's Carleton University. He is the proud owner of a blender.

Nce banner!
For the Eva guy- Zac you hit this one on the head. I can't stand it when people get all up in arms about sequels. Keep in mind people this ain't Disney.
I in fact can't wait to see the new movies. I love it when they take good shows and continue them- 9 times out of 10 they turn out to be pretty darn good. At least they're shooting for some that can be achieved rather than say a second season.
As for Dj Milky...even though I don't read those books that makes me kind of sad. I don't know why all people think in order to be cool you have to sound like a stupid wannabe gangsta- oh right MTV/BET. Thanks a lot for making teens seem retarded.
Ah Anime club. I remember when Media Play use to have on every Friday. We always had a good turnout- and we'd get discounts at the end of each meeting on the stuff there. I remember (at least then) a lot of the dvd compaines had programs you could join where they'd send free videos or merch to the different clubs. Don't know if they do that anymore but it'd be worth a shot.
I wish i could fly. maybe if I pratice hard enough and work on growing wings with my friends i'll someday soar through the air.
But in all seriousness- I don't disregard the fact that he's training his chi. It's possible. he's just not going to turn into a crazed village destroying demon fox. if he achieves this goal i hope he writes back. I'd love to hear his story.
The rant was intresting. They're both great creators. I think that people call him the Disney of Japan for two reasons.
1. They just associate him with Disney because of Spirted Away
2. They are giving him honor saying he compared to one of the great "filmakers"
Take your pick- it could be either one. Although I feel like the ranter sort of discredited Miyazaki a bit.
Great Column as always Zac.

I don't want to be whatever, but seeing as the first time I heard Miyazaki compared to Disney was more than 10 years ago, I don't know that it has much to do with Spirited Away.

|It looks to me that the guy was very serious in what he said. It's too bad there are people out there who can't come to a reality checkpoint. I loved the rant, it made a lot of sense, Disney did put a lot on the line to create the Empire there is today. Hayao Miyazaki has everything right there before him, he just had to put the pieces of the puzzle together.

The Flake of the Week was just too funny...and I, too, would like to see an alchemy one, just to see what that person wrote!
As for the rant, VERY well thought out! Chris obviously did his homework. And it certainly made me think about the differences between the two men and what they developed and/or grew up with.
But, I also agree with what britannicamoore said:
I think that it's a compliment.

the flake of the week sounds like my friend who makes his own "jitsu". I asked him to create me a "bang a million hotties right now" jitsu but he was unsuccessful.
he was also teased without mercy.
miyazaki and disney are lumped together because they're both responsible for the greatest animation there respective countrys created.
personally i do agree that Disney himself didn't draw much but just understood art and how to market it, something he did with great success. he was also a bit of an assbag.
miyazaki is alot more like Ub Iwerks than Disney, doing all the work himself and doing a bang up job of it.
the sap has spoken.

Regarding the state of Eva:
It's one of Gainax's cash cows, and they feel they have to keep it alive somehow. As much as I love the show, even I have times where I feel it'd probably be best for Gainax to give it a rest and move on. But hey, money talks and everything else walks, so I doubt it's going to disappear from the scene for a good while yet. Still though, there's almost no doubt in my mind I'll check out the remakes sooner or later. I try to adhere to the belief that you can't knock something without sampling it first.
DJ Milky:
I guess Levy thinks that the ends somehow justify the means. If he feels that the only way to sell a product is to create a false persona because something about the product is lacking, what's a little deception between consumer and producer?
Dark Horse and its treatment of manga:
I haven't read Berserk yet (first six volumes currently on-order), but I have read Shadow Star. Presentation-wise, I found nothing wrong with it (except for it being flipped[?]). There was a hubbub about editing the last couple of volumes that were released, but I understood why it was necessary, so it wasn't a big deal to me. All that irritates me about Dark Horse at the moment is the knowledge that there won't be anothe volume of Shadow Star anytime in the distant future.
How to maintain your anime club:
JMU's anime club is fairly small, but dedicated. There are outside activites, but the most interesting one I've seen so far involves an online contest on their forum, with prizes given out for the upfront winner and when a certain point total is reached. Keeps people involved, I can say that much.
The flake:
I've been in a very good mood all day (a test score was changed from a 36 to a 95 due to my scantron landing in the wrong scoring pile); the sheer hilarity coming from the flake's absurdity just topped it off.
The rant:
Bravo, a rant about a new subject for once, and an interesting subject at that. Good evidence presented to show how Miyazaki and Disney are different people when it comes to the business. It was kind of shocking to learn that Miyazaki isn't a very change-happy person. Not so when it comes to Disney; Epcot and the world of tomorrow areas of Disney World speak to his embrace of new technology. However, Miyazaki's being titled as the Disney of Japan probably stems from the fact that he, much like Disney did in America, helped change the animation landscape of Japan. After Spirited Away's success, America was alerted to what he was capable of, and the label the mass media applied pretty much stuck.

Damn, i feel famous. Mozilla and Britannica, thanks for you kind words about my banner submission. It's great to see a superior title like Stand Alone Complex take the spotlight on the first week.
I'd like to echo the point of how intellegint this week's rant was. When entertainers become as prolific as Disney and Miyazaki, they also become that much more diffcult to wrap your head around. They become disembodied icons of whatever field they've impacted, which makes it that much harder for them to get their due respect. The comparison is an easy mistake for a broadcaster looking for a soundbite, considering how incomprehensible animation production is to the general public, but just a little bit of knowledge points out how different their contributions really are.

|Great rant, it was very well written however I'd like to point out one small mistake. El Apóstol was the first feature length animation. Walt Disney didn't invent the idea, he was about 14 years behind.

Question on cucmber placement in garden
I've spent some time this snowy day planning the layout of my gardens. Do I need to isolate slicing cucumbers from the picklers? Wasn't sure if they will cross-polinate and cause the slicers to be bitter. Also, how far should I plant sh corn from se corn to prevent cross-polination? Really wanting to start my tomato and pepper seed, but going to wait another week or two.
Well its my understanding of plant hybridization that cross pollinating only effects the seeds and subsequent seedlings. I could be wrong but unless you plan to save the seeds I wouldnt worry. I could be wrong though. I have planted picklers and slicers on the same trellis and never noticed anything strange happen. Corn Im not so sure of because I have only ever done one type at a time.
Mike is right and it is only an issue if you are saving seeds. I haven't found pickling cucumbers to be bitter, and many people plant ONLY pickling cucumbers and use them for slicers also, but you can't do it the other way because slicers tend to make soft pickles. I plant both but don't worry about them crossing because I don't save seed from them.
I've never heard of cross-pollination between slicing and pickling cukes causing bitterness, and I grow mine side by side in the years when I grow both slicers and picklers. Generally, I only grow pickling types nowadays and use them as both picklers and slicers, or I grow Armenian cucumbers (which actually are melons, not cucumbers) to use as slicers.
The bitterness in bitter cucumbers comes from compounds found in the skin (and often in the leaves as well), so sometimes all you have to do is peel the skin off a bitter cucumber in order to improve its flavor. It also is worth noting that the same compounds that cause the bitterness also attract cucumber beetles, so if you choose a variety that has been bred to be free of those bitter compounds, you should have less of a problem with cucumber beetles.
Also, one of the main reasons cucumbers can develop a bitter flavor in the summer is drought-stress, so you can reduce the likelihood of having cucumbers with bitter flavor if you keep the soil evenly-moist and don't let it dry out.
With corn, the amount of isolation distance required will vary depending on your purpose.
If you are a home gardener growing a home-sized plot, you likely can get away with anywhere between 25-50' of isolation between the supersweet types and the non-supersweets. Or, you can isolate by time---planting varieties whos days-to-maturity are at least 10-14 days from one another, and 21 days would be even better.
If you are gardening on a larger scale and want to plant a whole acre (or more) of corn, you need an isolation distance of 100' between the super sweets and the non-super sweets.
If you are growing for scientific or research purposes, you need 500-700'.

WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. -- Democrat Kirsten Gillibrand easily won re-election to the U.S. Senate.
With 61 percent of districts reporting, she had 70 percent of the vote at midnight. Gillibrand beat Republican challenger Wendy Long, Green Party candidate Colia Clark, Libertarian Chris Edes, and the Common Sense Party's John Mangelli.
Gillibrand was appointed to the Senate in 2009 to replace Hillary Clinton and ran in 2010 to fill out the remainder of Clinton's term. This will be Gillibrand's first full term as Senator. She previously worked as an attorney in upstate New York, and as Special Counsel to Andrew Cuomo during the Clinton Administration.
Long is an attorney who once served as law clerk to Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas.

5 Simple Habits That Help Me Cook on a Budget
Kitchen Habits
I have a three-pronged approach to cooking: cook good food, cook often, and cook within my budget. The first two are easy for me; the budget is definitely the tough part. What made a budget more manageable for me was developing small habits that are sustainable and easy to stick with.
Here are the five essential habits that keep me cooking within my budget. They are simple, but — like the grocery habits we talked about last week — these are the bedrock of sticking to a budget. Are these the ones you practice too?

5 Essential Habits That Make Grocery Shopping Easier
Kitchen Habits
Whether you love it or hate it, grocery shopping is an inevitable chore. If you want to eat (and I'm assuming you do!), it has to get done. Truth be told, I don't mind it that much. Well, actually, I kind of enjoy it.
I haven't always felt this way, though. What made grocery shopping easier, faster, and less stressful was ensuring my routine always included five simple habits. Some of these may feel obvious — but tell me, do you always do them? Getting consistent with these five habits has made a big difference for me!

Whether you have an itty-bitty fridge freezer or a large deep freeze, it doesn't help you a whole lot if you don't know what you have.

Think of the resources – and money! – we could save if we never wasted food.
Over the years, I've learned how to keep a freezer inventory that works for me. It's pretty simple and involves zero technology.
