Bautista champing at the bat
Jays slugger in Winnipeg today
TORONTO -- Jose Bautista can't wait to get going.
After a season of frustration that ended in controversy, the Toronto Blue Jays slugger is excited for 2013 following the team's major roster overhaul.
General manager Alex Anthopoulos added five former or current all-stars in a series of off-season moves, including the addition of National League Cy Young winner R.A. Dickey, fellow pitchers Mark Buehrle and Josh Johnson, as well as shortstop Jose Reyes and outfielder Melky Cabrera.
"A lot of great moves. Alex has really stuck to his word and said that when the time was right he was going to pull some moves to make this team competitive for a long period of time and that's exactly what he's done," Bautista said Saturday at Rogers Centre as the Blue Jays kicked off their winter tour. "It gives all of us -- the players, the coaches, the fans, the front office, the ownership -- a lot of reasons to be excited and happy about our upcoming seasons."
While the addition of new talent immediately makes the Blue Jays favourites in the American League East, it also brings added focus to a club that hasn't made the playoffs since winning back-to-back World Series titles in 1992 and 1993.
Great expectations
"They're great expectations. I wouldn't say it's pressure," said Bautista, who missed the final two months of last season with a wrist injury that required surgery. "I would look at it like background noise -- noise that's helping you out. Everybody expects us to win and that's great but it's not something we're going to focus on because it's not going to help us be better."
The Blue Jays suffered through a miserable 2012 season that included a 73-89 record, former shortstop Yunel Escobar getting suspended for wearing eye black displaying an anti-gay slur written in Spanish during a game, and culminated with manager John Farrell jumping ship to the rival Boston Red Sox for what he called his "dream job."
But in a hectic two month of trades, signings and the rehiring of former manager John Gibbons, Anthopoulos has created a buzz in a city starved for a winner.
Bautista says now it's up to the players to deliver on all that promise.
"When you have such a competitive group put together on the same team you can't help but to feed off of each other and I'm sure that's what we're going to do," he said. "Nobody's going to have to press or overdo it because nobody has to be spectacular. Everybody just has to come in, do their job and as a group we're going to play pretty good baseball if everybody just does what they're capable of doing."
Bautista has even more reason to be happy with the roster makeover. After hitting a club-record 54 home runs in 2010, the 32-year-old has at times voiced his displeasure with the direction of the team since signing a long-term contract extension.
"They wanted to build the organization from within, get heavy on the draft, get a lot of players (and) have a strong minor-league system (to) put themselves in a position to be able to pull these kinds of moves you're seeing today," Bautista said. "We've got a pretty good team put together and when the season starts it's time to play ball."
Blue Jays first baseman/designated hitter Adam Lind was on vacation in Mexico when November's trade with the Marlins brought Buehrle, Johnson and Reyes to Toronto.
"There were some Canadians down there and they let me know what happened," he said. "It just popped up out of nowhere, I checked the Internet and we're getting three of the best players from the National League over to our team. Hopefully we can get to the playoffs.
"It's a very exciting time to be a Blue Jay."
Toronto left-hander Brett Cecil says players from last year's roster are excited for spring training to meet their new teammates.
"Every one of those guys makes the team better," he said. "The starting staff that we have now is one of the best in baseball. I think on paper we're the best team in the AL East or even in (the majors). It's just a matter of going out and executing."
NOTES: Bautista updated his recovery from the wrist injury, saying he has full range of motion and is pain free. He has yet to face live pitching but has been in the batting cage five times a week. Bautista added that no determination has been made with regards to his participation at World Baseball Classic. ... The Blue Jays' winter tour will include stops in Winnipeg today followed by Saskatoon and Edmonton.

It's a bit of a wade/swim out to the best snorkeling, but well worth it. I circled the large rock twice, and while strenuous it was worth it. We saw multiple turtles, rays, and large schools of fish. Food was pretty decent. Try the Bushcrack and Sands beer, they're pretty good.
As with any snorkeling destination, I would suggest bringing your gear because the gear provided is not in the best shape.

Rapid Reaction: Knicks 100, Spurs 83
January, 3, 2013
By Ian Begley | ESPNNewYork.com
WHAT IT MEANS: Mike Woodson got what he asked for Thursday night.
For the past week, Woodson has been imploring his team to play defense. The Knicks had given up at least 100 points in five of their past eight games -- all losses. But they clamped down on the red-hot Spurs on Thursday in a 100-83 win.
The Spurs were shooting 53.4 percent from the field and averaging 111.7 points per game in their past seven games -- all wins. They'd shot an eye-popping 47.5 percent from beyond the arc during that stretch. But New York, displaying the kind of defense that allowed them to get off to an 18-5 start, held San Antonio to 36.4 percent shooting.
With strong perimeter D and improved pick-and-roll coverage, the Knicks (22-10) limited the Spurs (26-9) to 9-for-34 shooting from 3-point range and just 12 paint points. The Spurs had just four points in the paint through three quarters, after scoring 56 in the paint in a win over the Bucks on Wednesday. San Antonio was playing its fourth game in five nights. The Knicks have beaten the Spurs twice this season.
NOT MUCH 'POP' FOR AMARE: Clearly, Amar'e Stoudemire is still working the rust off in his comeback from left knee surgery.
In his second game back, Stoudemire lacked explosion around the basket, which is understandable for a guy coming off knee surgery and playing his second game after a two-month absence.
The power forward scored 10 points on 4-for-10 shooting and had two rebounds in 20 minutes. He had his shot blocked three times, twice on one possession by Tiago Splitter.
Stoudemire entered to a loud ovation with 6:30 left in the first quarter, and converted on a baseline spin over Boris Diaw shortly after entering the game.
SHOWTIME FOR J.R.: J.R. Smith had one of the dunks of the year when he caught a Pablo Prigioni pass below his hip in midair and somehow finished it off with a one-handed reverse dunk. There aren't many people on the planet with the athleticism to pull off what Smith did midway through the fourth quarter.
Smith had another excellent floor game, finishing with 20 points on 9-for-17 shooting, with five rebounds and three assists.
Prigioni also had a strong game, finishing with four points, nine assists and three steals.
NOVAKAINE: Steve Novak put the nail in the coffin with three treys in the fourth quarter. His first made it 77-60. His second, about two minutes later, put the Knicks up 20. And he hit another right after Smith's highlight-reel dunk.
Novak finished with 15 points in 22 minutes. He hit five of his seven 3-point attempts.
Marcus Camby, in his first start of the season, had six rebounds and one assist in 16 minutes.
WHAT'S NEXT: The Knicks hit the road for a one-game trip to Orlando -- Stoudemire's hometown -- on Saturday night.

"Good, but not fantastic."
This book offers what all the other reviewers said, but I can't say I would use words like "fantastic," "amazing," and "terrific." It definitely made for an interesting read(or listen) but the end was anticlimactic.. So anticlimactic that I did rate this book with four stars, but thought of the ending and brought it down to three.. So, buy if you are an avid Green fan, but not if you have just have, by chance, found this book. Maybe I'm not being fair.. This book made me laugh, be sad, be happy, and maybe I snorted. (maybe). The narration was FANTASTIC, and he does deserve that word. The characters were easy to relate to and made you like them, but that is about all the positives I can think on the top of my head.
"Great Book"
Huge fan of Mercy, and this book didn't disappoint. I'll def. be reading the next book. (or listening.)
"Really didn't shine a light to No.1 and No.2"
This was a good book, and a good listen. A lot of suspense, which I have countered in a lot of Pike books. Sita is a really strong characters and I really like her. So, I would suggest listening to this book only if you loved no.1 and no.2 because you won't really follow along if you haven't. I gave this book three stars because I felt like it wasn't wrote up to par to no.1 and no.2.
"One of the best, original, YA book I've read."
I've listened to many audiobooks, but this one really stood out among the crowd! Really! It was full of action, drama, suspense, surprise, and even some romance mixed up in all that. Kinda reminded me of a side salad( haha. no? No one laughed.. okay..well..) yeah, anyways, it was a really good book. Try it, you won't feel bad about it!
"One of the best. (and im a harsh critic)"
I found myself swaying to the beat of this book, and trust me, it had one. I loved it from the start! (well, okay.. from about chapter three.) The characters are great! Really, they are. Maybe great isn't a good word for them.. words like AMAZING, PHENOMENAL, and BRILLIANT come to mind.. But they just sound stupid when I use them in a sentence. On a serious note, this book was worth your credit and money. It was everything I expected from two great authors! If you want more, like I did... Try Looking for Alaska by John Greene and Boy Meets Boy by David Levithan. Great book/audiobooks.. OH, and P.S. the reading on this was just great! It really made the book. :)
"Reminder: Not stand up, a Memoir."
Although I wouldn't really call this book "the most hilarious thing ever," I would say that it was witty, perhaps nostalgic, somewhat sad, and very comical. Kathy is a very funny person, and this transcends to her writing. BUT PLEASE REMEMBER, if you just want a cheap laugh, this is not it. It's a personal MEMOIR, and not everything can be funny. Some is sad, some nostalgic, and some really funny. If you are looking for a cheap laugh and not the full ride, don't buy it. If you LOVE/LIKE K.G, then please buy it. You will love it! I did.
"[Though not funny, insightful into her life.]"
Well, I believe that this book wasn't wrote to make the audience laugh.. but more to make the audience have a deeper insight into Lisa Lamp's life. She talks a lot about how crazy she is which I didn't find too funny. Her wit is intertwined with her story, but something that would make one smile instead of *LAUGH OUT LOUD.* Though I believe that this isn't a GREAT book, I believe it is a GOOD book. So, basically, buy it if you just REALLY love Lamp and want to know a little about her... But DONT buy it if you just want to "bust out laughing." If you want to "bust out laughing," I suggest Dear Vodka, It's Me Chelsea by Chelsea Handler... It's pretty funny.

Algae Grower
day 3
Day 5
good news, bad news
The good news is that the rotala seems to be growing well. In fact, unless the plant has uprooted, and it doesn't look like it has, several stems have grown to the water surface-which seems a tremendous amount of growth...
The other piece of good news is that the glosso seems to be growing pretty well.
The bad news is that it seems the blyxa is melting, badly. And the microsword is melting some, too...
Also, I am afraid the red rotala is turning green...
I knew this wouldn't go perfectly, so I guess I am hitting my first speedbumps. I assume there isn't much to do but wait it out. Either the melters disappear completely, or they make it. Either way, life moves on-if the blyxa disappears completely, I try again, either with another set of regular plants, or maybe with tc plants, since I understand they are less prone to melting. I think there is a better chance of the microsword pulls through. As for the red rotala turning green-I guess that is a wait and see dealio, too...
Any thoughts, advice, ideas or insight are more than welcome, and much appreciated.

Algae Grower
week 1 is in the books!!!
so this has been planted and flooded for a week. ph seems to range btwn 6 (with co2) and 6.6 (without co2), though I do no know how to see if the ph is lower, since yellow means 6 and that is the lowest the API kit goes. ammonia is at 2ppm (down from 4 earlier this week), no nitrates or nitrites, kh is 35.8ppm (2 drops) and the gh is 53.7 (3 drops). photo period 10 hours, with co2 at two bubbles per second (I might turn that down a touch since the ph and drop checkers are reading light green/almost yellow at times, which also seems to jibe with the chart smracer shared with me)...
it looks like some of that melting blyxa and microsword is coming back, and the glosso seems to be coming along. the rotala seems to be rolling, though i am considering adding some ECA to keep the butterfly red, but don't know if it is too early for that. I also think I might get some more Xmas moss for that right branch. other than that, I am going to let things go. I believe tomorrow and Monday will be my last daily water changes, and that I will move to evey other day after that...
oh, the manzanita driftwood has the fuzz fungus, but that seems to be nothing to be worried about...
any advice, insight or thoughts regarding my tank are much appreciated. thanks

Algae Grower
I moved the little bit of microsword that was behind the rock to the two big patches (between the rocks and in the back left corner) which frees up some more room for the clippings of butterfly rotala red in the back of the layout (you can see one of these clippings peeking out from behind the rock in the second pic). I also tied some more xmas moss to the manzanita and trimmed some of the glosso (though i was very conservative with the latter). So, after 2 weeks, the tank looks like this...

I was thinking you could trim the tops of the glosso (not to the bone) in a few days to promote horizontal runners. You can search it up on Youtube to see what I mean. I know ADA does this as shown in their NA Gallery video series. But I have to say be careful with glosso trimming, it is really hard to hit the perfect time to trim and hard to know how much to trim. Research is key here (so is trial and error). Otherwise, looks good!

Algae Grower
so here is a pic of the tank at about two and a half weeks after planting, and immediately after it's first glosso trimming. i was very apprehensive about doing the trim, and i have no idea if i did it correctly-the YouTube vids i saw had people just hacking away at the stuff. anyway, if you have any ideas or comments, i am happy to read them, and truly appreciate the input...
oh, and thx to the mods for moving this thread to the proper subforum.

Seems like you did great! If the glosso starts to send out more horizontal runners, it means you did it right!
Algae Grower
So, one month has passed since I planted and flooded the tank!
The tank has fully cycled, so I added some fauna this weekend. I started my school of Espei Rasboras, adding five specimens; I plan on adding between six to nine more, but the store didn't have that many in stock, so I bought what they had, and will likely add the rest in a fortnight. I also added a pair of Red Neon Rainbow Blue-Eyes. I am intrigued by this new species (Psedomugil cf. paskai "Red Neon") and so I wanted to try them out. They have taken quite nicely to their new environs, and I plan on adding two more pairs (maybe I get lucky and they spawn ). You can actually see these two in the picture above. Finally, I am planning on adding a few sparkling gourami; originally I had envisioned a pair of the pearl variety, but I think i have been swayed to choose the former. These are all additions to the existing cleanup crew that has been in residence for the last two weeks (3 Otos and 10 Amano shrimp).
The initial trim of the glosso seems to have gone well, as I see some new horizontal growth, and the carpet as a whole seems to be growing and healthy. The rotala continues to grow, and I have been trimming and replanting stems; I think it is now time to trim these plants more closely, shaping them as the "bush" that I have envisioned all along. The mini Xmas moss seems to be growing well, and the "tree" seems fine, especially now the Amanos and Otos have cleaned off that white fungus. I think I might split the needle leaf java fern to place some to the right of the base of the tree in order to fill in that space; as the fern continues to grow, these pieces should look like one big plant. Finally, the Blyxa and Microsword seem to be doing well, and there is little to no evidence of melting as the plants have acclimated to the tank. I think I might buy one more pot of Microsword to fill it in just a bit in the back left corner.
That is all I have to report. I look forward to any input, advice and insight you might choose to provide; I sincerely appreciate all the community input. Thanks for taking the time to check out this project.

Rainforest, ocean, crocs, and more
... swimming, jumping off rocks, and letting the waterfall currents drag us downstream -- you know, nice safe fun! :-) After the swim dropped our core temps below 100, we began the trip back home, made a few stops to take photos, and a side trip through Port Douglas. On the way back home the skies started to darken and storms began to move in. This is a very stormy part of the year and we've been very lucky so far (aside from it being 1 million degrees). Because it was pouring we ...

Our guide took us into three separate enclosed caverns accessed through collapsed portions of the lava tubes. The caverns and collapsed lava tubes are home to Mareeba rock wallabies, bats and a variety of insects and spiders (about 50 species of ...
Cairns part 1

A smug Dutch hostel guy had dryly wished us luck in selling our car, so that evening I gladly informed him that we had sold him! I embellished somewhat with the price but he'll not know that. Upon triumphant return from selling Wilson, and noting the irony in buying from an Irishman and selling to an Irishman, we booked a trip to Kuranda for the following day.

A key question at the heart of the controversial bailout of AIG is just how much money the government lost. The Federal Reserve and Treasury Department have worked to keep that number secret and to conceal who was on the winning end. An unredacted document obtained by the Huffington Post list the damage in detail. Goldman Sachs alone, for instance, got $14 billion in government money for assets worth $6 billion at the time — a de facto $8 billion subsidy, courtesy of taxpayers. The list was produced as part of a congressional investigation led by the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee into the federal bailout of AIG...

Federal Reserve Seeks to Protect U.S. Bailout Secrets
David Glovin and Thom Weidlich writes on Bloomberg:
… Read the rest
The Federal Reserve asked a U.S. appeals court to block a ruling that for the first time would force the central bank to reveal secret identities of financial firms that might have collapsed without the largest government bailout in U.S. history.
The U.S. Court of Appeals in Manhattan will decide whether the Fed must release records of the unprecedented $2 trillion U.S. loan program launched after the 2008 collapse of Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. In August, a federal judge ordered that the information be released, responding to a request by Bloomberg LP, the parent of Bloomberg News.
"This case is about the identity of the borrower," said Matthew Collette, a lawyer for the government, in oral arguments today. "This is the equivalent of saying 'I want all the loan applications that were submitted.'"
Bloomberg argues that the public has the right to know basic information about the "unprecedented and highly controversial use" of public money.
Fed Posts Record Profit for 2009
Reported on the AP via Yahoo News:
… Read the rest
The Federal Reserve generated record profits last year, reflecting money made off its extraordinary efforts to rescue the country from the worst economic and financial crisis since the 1930s.
The central bank announced Tuesday it logged a record windfall of $52.1 billion. Of that total, a record of $46.1 billion gets turned over to the Treasury Department.
It marks both the biggest profit and payment to Treasury on records dating back to 1914, when the Fed began operating. The previous record payment turned over to the Treasury — of $34.6 billion — was registered in 2007. In 2008, the Fed reported a payment of $31.7 billion.
The Fed's efforts to end the crisis are separate from the $700 billion taxpayer-funded financial bailout program authorized by Congress in 2008 and overseen by the Treasury Department.
Originally set up to shore up banks, money from the publicly-derided program also has been doled out to rescue other types of companies, including General Motors, Chrysler and GMAC.
Federal Reserve Smackdown: Bunning vs Bernanke
I wonder what it was like to be Ben Bernanke today, on the receiving end of an absolute lashing from Senator Jim Bunning. Here's a taster:Amen.Chairman Greenspan's attitude toward regulating banks was much like his attitude toward consumer protection. Instead of close supervision of the biggest and most dangerous banks, he ignored the growing balance sheets and increasing risk. You did no better. In fact, under your watch every one of the major banks failed or would have failed if you did not bail them out.Bunning then quoted Bernanke's own words from his own confirmation hearing, when he said that "no bank is too big to fail". No, Bunning wasn't laughing either:Rather than making management, shareholders, and debt holders feel the consequences of their risk-taking, you bailed them out. In short, you are the definition of moral hazard.This is the sort of parliamentary rhetoric which we Brits are quite used to, but which is electrifying in the normally-staid confines of the US Senate. Good for Bunning for taking the gloves off.

House Financial Services Committee
2129 Rayburn House Office Building
Washington, D.C. 20515
Dear Chairman Frank, Ranking Member Bachus, and Members of the Committee,
During the past two years, the Federal Reserve dramatically changed its operating procedures. Instead of simply setting interest rates to influence macroeconomic conditions, it rapidly acquired a wide variety of private assets and extended massive secret bailouts to major financial institutions.
There are still many questions about the Fed's behavior in these new activities, including potential cronyism and favoritism in its distribution of many trillions of dollars. As the Special Inspector General for the Troubled Assets Relief Program recently wrote about their bailout of AIG, the Fed's "strategy to pursue concessions from counterparties offered little opportunity for success, even in light of the willingness of one counterparty to agree to concessions."
The Federal Reserve balance sheet expanded to more than $2 trillion, along with implied and explicit backstops to Wall Street firms that could cost even more.
The Money That Is Sold Abroad Is YOU!
"Bones" in the Money Pit
By Robert Singer
"Things do not happen. Things are made to happen."—JFK.
Our consumer society didn't just happen, it was planned. Not in 1910, or 1954, but in the year 1832, the year William Huntington Russell and fellow classmate Alphonso Taft at Yale University founded the Skull and Bones society, a branch of the Bavarian Illuminati.
According to most of the available biographical data on its early members, the money required to sustain the secret order's campus affairs and its broader role in placing its members into key positions of influence upon their graduation from Yale was derived from the opium trade in the Far East.
Members, known as "Bonesmen," include Rockefeller, Kuhn, Loeb and Morgan all connected to the House of Rothschild's global financial empire. They are founders of the Federal Reserve, the Bank of England, France, and Germany or, for that matter, any central bank anywhere in the world.… Read the rest
Silver, But No Silver Lining
By Robert Singer
The end of our consumer society is on the horizon, which should be no surprise to anyone who took Economics 101. Do we really expect to spend our way out of this mess by buying and selling each other useless cheap stuff from China?
As the financial collapse gathers steam, gold and silver oracles like Butler, Friedman, Morgan and Turk who have been predicting for years the launch of the price of silver to the moon will see their prophecy fulfilled, but a celebration is not in order.
Being wealthy during the last 60 years of unprecedented prosperity at the expense of the Third World and the environment is one thing, but profiting from a bull market in silver when millions of hungry Americans are living in tent-cities next door is quite another.
A default at the Comex that will ignite the explosion in the price of silver and gold is in progress.… Read the rest

unicode possibilities
It would be nice if cl-user would display unicode input for CJK text. With PCL and On Lisp getting new printings in Japan, it might be beneficial to attract more brain-share from that side of the world. Would this be considered out of cl-user.net's scope?

This is a good idea. Done.

re: unicode possibilities
I have to think about it.
The use of English as the standard language is prefered so that the information is useable by most lispers.
I don't mind some other language content though.

Many sites have a link to view the repository such as:

however, I can't find any place that describes how to convert that link into something that can be used to actually check out the source code. I'm very suppressed this hasn't been an issue before.

A few for today from Georgia
On this lazy July 4th we've had fantastic weather! The house was wide open and the cats were in 7th heaven!
This was one of the bouquets from church today. There are azaleas in it! I have no idea where Henrietta got the azaleas from! The gladiolas are gorgeous.
The crinums have been multiplying! This has more scapes than ever!
Purple coneflowers and grey headed coneflowers
Seed grown tigers, I think they've been waiting 4-5 years to show!
Veggie Garden!
Happy 4th my American friends!
What colorful blooms and I love the last picture of your two homes and that fantastic veggie garden. You've done a great job GGG.
Happy 4th of July to you ggg. I think we got your weather up here in the Philadelphia area, almost 100 degrees today. The kitties look very comfy. I am jealous of your crinums, I tried to grow them but they rotted. I am curious where those azaleas came from, ours were finished blooming in May. Your veggie garden looks great, mine is doing well, we are planning to go out and water very early tomorrow as the heat wave is supposed to continue, over 100 on Tuesday.
Happy July 4!
Did you grow your coneflowers from seeds? I love the tall yellow. I am also jealous of your crinums!
Wonderful looking veggie garden. There were 11 deer out front earlier this evening. When I see the herd, I back off of thinking that I'll ever try to grow a veggie garden.
Thank-you all. The pink/plumb house was chosen by a 6 year old girl, not us so I'm not THAT daring (actually, I probably would have painted it in reverse of ours...green with purple trim :) But they had it painted when we did. Their current house is electric peach with red trim! Do not be our neighbor, it rubs off :)
Cameron, I did grow the yellow greyhead coneflowers from seed. It's easy with winter sowing however if you don't get quite enough cold, a few weeks in the freezer helps. I will have seed if you'd like some!
I have one plant and was hoping that I could gather seeds to grow more. Ratbidia pinnata, not echinacea paradoxa, right?-- My ratbidia is with my bronze fennel and lantana 'Miss Huff'. I need to move it to more sunshine as the 5 ft fennel is blocking the light!
Thanks for the offer, though.
No, this one is not a ratibida but a rudbeckia I think. It's different from all others I have and as a leaf like a smaller cutleaf coneflower and a darker cone (not a green cone) - it does not spread like cutleaf coneflower.
Everything looks just beautiful. I love the cats. they look very comfortable. I can just imagine how tickled you are to see the tiger lilies bloom. I love tiger lilies.
Your criniums are the prettiest color to me. Love them!
And you have a beautiful vegetable garden. Everything looks really great.
Can you take a photo of the leaf, Cameron?
Our cats are our "babies" since we have no children. They are spoiled rotten. Chester (not photographed) gets held like a baby and he loves it. Right now he's getting paper from the printer. He loves to retrieve paper and bring it to you. We have 6 cats, none go into the garden anymore. It was Boo Boo Kitty's joy in life but robbed from her when she got lymphoma and had chemo and was told never outside again (immune system always compromised). However, they all supervise from the porch, and love the chipmunks, butterflies, birds and bees. Bippie also lived in the garden before she came inside to be adopted. She would stay out on the porch 24hrs a day if she could.
Isn't it just amazing that cats can have the patience and fortitude to sit for literally hours and just stare at all the potential prey out there?
Ours stay inside too for safety reasons but they have their favorite perches in some windows, and a screened in porch to dream in.
I found a cute pic of my maine coon. He's a crazy, weird big thing. His name is "Fatty"-we didn't pick it, the girl I rescued him from named him that, and if you know cats, you know how hard it can be to get them to respond to their names. So we left the name. Next to him is our foxhound Lola. We have another orange kitty that my better half loves to death (but won't admit it).
Sorry girlgroup, didn't mean to steal your posting here with pictures of my cat!!!!! From cliq pics
I always love your purple, you certainly have a way with color. The veggie bed looks fabulous! Nothing like home grown food.
Re tiger lilies - there's a special thrill to grow something from seed and wait years to see it bloom. You feel like a proud parent!
I really like your raised beds! Can you tell me what type of boards you used and if you like having bark on the paths? I currently have dirt and I don't enjoy weeding the PATHS, just the garden thanks! I am trying to decide between gravel and bark to keep down the weeds. I love your gardens, thanks for sharing!
Gingerflower, we use non-pressure treated yellow (not white, yellow are denser) pine boards that are 10x2x whatever length you can get. Building stores have them as well as the treated version.
I would swap out the wood mulch for something better if I could, but I can't think of anything right now. I would prefer to have something I can walk in bare foot in the summer. The mulch hurts! However I put it down because I smothered grass and monkey grass (liriope) quickly two years ago to expand the garden. Bricks would be beautiful but so hot in the sun. Pinestraw also hirts (an available mulch here). Tonight I saw a board walkway on a TV gardening makeover show. It was beautiful, and would look great but expensive and hard to replace when needed.
Cameron, your leaves are different than mine!

Holy Crazy Ideas, Batman!
It seems with the end of Smallville in sight, the CW has plans for a TV show on the life of Richard John Grayson (or DJ has he'll go by) before he became the Boy Wonder.
According to Variety:
"Smallville" exec producers Kelly Souders and Brian Peterson, as well as "Supernatural" exec producer McG, are behind "The Graysons," which has landed a put pilot commitment at the netlet.
In the one-hour "Graysons," which will be set in modern times, young DJ will face challenges involving first loves, young rivals and his family as he grows up. Souders and Peterson have come up with an original take on the character.
I'm really not sure what to think of this. It actually makes me a little sick in the stomach. There hasn't been a firm decision on whether or not Smalliville will last beyond this current season. The signs are pointing to it being the last. It's been successful for the network so it makes sense that they'd want to try to reproduce the formula. I just don't know how a show about the Graysons would be. I do think a young Bruce Wayne story would work better but I'm sure that property is off limits. I just have a really bad feeling about this.

We both like to go with the flow and see where the journey takes us!
The highlights of our past trips have been to meet the locals to get to know a little more about the places we visit. So we love Air B&B!

By Alan Strathman for GalTime.com
What makes a relationship last? Many people would say love keeps a relationship going. But if your love doesn't translate into compromise, it might be extremely difficult for both partners to stay committed.
On some level, we all hate compromise – when we compromise, we may not get what we want. In fact, we may not get anything close to what we want. But that's the nature of compromise, and it's necessary if you want to see your relationship go the distance.
Creating "We-ness"
Compromise creates what psychologists call "we-ness," the sense that both partners feel they're "in this together." Partners who have this sense of we-ness tend to use couple-oriented words like we, us, and ours, rather than individual-oriented words like I, me, and mine.
We-ness is self-perpetuating; as we hear the words more often, we think the words more often, and when we notice that our thinking has changed, we feel more engaged in "couplehood." As we become more entrenched in this way of thinking, we are more likely to search for solutions that serve both partners and continue this positive trend.
Related:Â 6 Things Women Do To Push Men Away
Obstacles to Compromise
Our willingness to compromise is deeply impacted by our perception of fairness. If we think we're getting the short end of the stick, we become more stubborn. But it's important to understand that the amount of compromise may balance out only in the long run. If you zero in on a single negotiation, one person may seem to come out ahead. Fortunately, what often matters more than the outcome of a discussion is that both partners have a say in the negotiating process. This can make even an unfair outcome feel fair.
In addition, comparison can throw off your perceptions of your relationship. It's common to compare your contribution to the relationship to your partner's contribution. It's also typical to contrast your relationship with other relationships. This is a dangerous game. There are many aspects of other relationships that you don't see, so focus on your own relationship and don't make assumptions. We are all individuals, and our relationships are reflections of this very fact.
Tips for Developing We-ness
A deep connection doesn't typically develop on its own – it's far too easy for us to take our partners for granted, or expect our partners to compromise on our behalf. There are ways, however, to consciously create a sense of we-ness.
Put the Relationship First
We often get so focused on getting what we want that we sometimes lose sight of what would be best for the health of the relationship. Recognize that what is best for "us" as a couple can be different than what's best for us as individuals. In other words, don't be selfish.
Don't Keep Track
Keeping track of who got more, or who won a particular negotiation, is characteristic of the type of short-term exchange relationships you have with car dealers, not the lasting, communal ones you have with people you love.
Related:Â The Simplest Tip to Save Your Relationship
Have a Win-Win Mindset
Give-and-take involves negotiating, but not the kind of negotiating you do when buying a car. Negotiating with your partner in a lasting relationship should involve finding outcomes that are mutually satisfying. Resentment shouldn't secretly build over any of the decisions you make together.
Consider Your Partner's Perspective
Research has found that both parties end up with better outcomes when each is considering his or her partner's interests – and the possible reasons behind them. Be careful to avoid making decisions based on assumptions about what your partner wants. Instead, listen carefully and consider what he's telling you.
Focus on Feelings over Words
Accept that, sometimes, we cannot clearly express why we want what we want. We often get focused on explanations, but behavior is often driven by feelings, which are hard to put into words.
Compromise can be hard, but if you're focused on the greater purpose of establishing a lasting relationship, you can find the strength to resist taking what you want all the time – and instead focus on giving to the one you love.
