FTM, I have toads!!
To all you toad lovers. Last week I answered a call on the Ext. Master Gardener Phone line for a lady who needed to get rid of Japanese Beetles without hurting her toads. I gave her what info I could and today I got a call from the Horticultural Agent saying she had called me back. I was worried I didn't give her enough info from what you all have taught me but she called to say her neighbor's children had caught toads for me! I have 10 pretty little toads! They chirruped all the way home. Now I want to let them go in the best possible way so I will get more little toads from now on.
Should I release them all in the same location or should I divvy them up in different areas? I have a cutting garden in what little sun there is with lots of hostas and bird bath basins on the ground. I have been chopping up last years leaves for mulch. The other half of the front yard is a woodland garden. Loads of hosta, Pachysandra and ferns. I can add a small water feature such as a pondless waterfall or more bird basins. It's really shady. The back yard has the pond, of course but I haven't put in a shallows/beach area yet. There is a huge amount of winter creeper and some hosta and ivy to hide in. Of course the raccoons come there most every night. Lots of shade. Should I put 3 in each area or all in the same place or what? Sandy
it sounds like toad heaven, sandy!!! kudos for sandy!!!!
i personally have never found a toad stay in my yard. i don't do anything right...though try at times. they do love long grassy areas also. the shallow basins seem to attract them in spring for breeding also. i bet you have loads of loose till for them to winter burrow in! a cool, covered depression in the ground seems to be a preference during hot weather, also. at work, there was a hole about 1' deep left over from some electrical work. there was just enough ledge on the inside. it was covered with plywood...and in the grass. this huge, i would say must have been a female, rested in there every day. another one hangs out in the moist areas by the downspout.
one of these days i am going to build a hibernaculum...i think if my neighbors weren't so determined to have manicured lawns...or dh...i would have more toads.
yeahhhhhhh, sandy! oh, i'd say they would spread out on their own..but you may be quicker at finding themn the "perfect" home in your yard- just in case there is a wrong turn.
a pipe version i have never read: http://www.nwf.org/nationalwildlife/article.cfm?issueID=109&articleID=1374
Here is a link that might be useful: this is the one i remember!
Yeah! What FTM said about depressions in the ground, etc., is so true.
My folks have tons of frogs this year, but they've also had many toads show up (and stay, growing to be TOADS with a capital T...LOL) throughout the years. The toads love to hide out under a large slab of concrete which the mulberry roots have pushed up (you all MAY remember the story of my mom's "laundry basket luge"...thanks to that slab of concrete).
The water from the sprinklers keeps it cool and damp under the slab during the HOT N. California summers. They really pack themselves into that area, too. :D
Congrats and good luck on your new wildlife, Sandy!
I keep finding a toad in the mulch pile. I mean, was. Finished spreading the mulch yesterday... and I've been scooping real carefully, there were garter snakes in it as well. And at least one chipmunk.
I now have small piles of mulch in various places, also a nice damp garage floor, upside down broken flower pots, etc etc, but i never really see them there. So I don't know where my toad moved to, but I saw a toad poopie on the driveway today. Yes, I picked it apart, true pond forum member fashion, it had lots of beetle parts in it - including Japanese beetle shields! So, why is this woman giving you her toads? If she wants to get rid of beetles?
:) Mary
I don't know about the ones I put in the front yard but I hear the ones in the back at night. I don't really expect to see them until next year since they were so small and the ground cover so thick. I'm trying to get as much leaf mulch down as I can but with the weak back it is slow going. There are a couple of large broken branches in the yard and I'm going to move them to the wooded area to give them a perch and shelter. Sandy

Wearing White After Labor Day: Acceptable or Punishable?
If there's one thing my Mom drilled into my head other than "sit up straight" and "chew with your mouth shut" it's that I should never, ever wear white after Labor Day.

Cool Kangaroos Have Methane Message for Cows
Cool Kangaroos Have Methane Message for Cows
When the solutions for global warming seem too terribly daunting, it's good to consider the latest rays of hope: today, for instance, we find that kangaroo farts may hold the key to a cooler future.
The Telegraph reports that a form of bacteria that lives in 'roo tummies helps the digestion process so much that 'roo flatus passes almost entirely without the powerful (and smelly) greenhouse gas, methane.
If this bacteria could be passed safely to cows and sheep, it would enrich the energy potential of their food while reducing a statistically significant contributor to global warming.
Previous Comments
err….not that it changes the point you're making, but a clarification: Methane's actually odorless. The sulfur compounds produced by anaerobic digestion accompanying the methane are a whole different story however….
I'm not real big on the alteration of gut fauna; perhaps I'm having a kneejerk reaction to introducing species to the gut ecosystem. Does anyone know what kangaroo tastes like? Does anyone know if replacing introduced cows with introduced 'roos would have a positive or negative effect? Maybe we should just promote less carnivory?
PS Agreeing with the previous comment, methane (natural gas) has the odor added to it so that you can tell when it's leaking and your house will blow up.
er, wouldn't it make more sense to just eat kangaroos instead of cows?
great herds of kangaroos being driven to market by Rooboys.
Introducing kangaroo microbes into the cow's rumen -
QDPI&F seem to think there is a production advantage in it too.
(and to put to bed a popular myth - methane is belched from the mouths of cows and sheep as part of the way ruminant digestion works - not farted !)
Termites also produce lost of methane and there are vast numbers through the tropics and sub-tropics. Can't do much about that though.

Window Shopping, Saint Petersburg

I don't really know what kind of shop this was, and not sure where it was located either but the "window dressing" was so unsual that I thought it was worth a photo! The "man" in the window looked real or at least almost real! In any case, he was certainly decked out for combat!
No telling what you might find in this store!!
UPDATE: Bijo69 (Birgit) tells me that the sign says this is a firearms store!! In that case, this is indeed a very unique window display because it is so futuristic looking. Looks more like a scene from a movie.

Maxxis High Roller II EXO Tire - Tubeless Ready - 27.5in
Price: $61.00buy now
Slightly lighter than the more expensive 3C MaxxTerra 27. 5 x 2. 3in tire, the High Roller II EXO Tubeless Ready builds on the, highly decorated original. Maxxis' polymer experts enhanced the all-mountain capabilities in the form of revised tread, an EXO TR casing, and a dual-rubber compound. It carries over the respected reputation of downhill mastery, easily recognized in the ramped, square braking-edge knobs which dig without forgiving to rearward flex. Complementing that, softer compound side knobs with additional buttressing enhance cornering threshold and bolster traction in adverse terrain. The 60tpi casing, with EXO protection, tips the scales below the two pound mark, and are tubeless-ready. Tubeless Ready means Maxxis recommends tire juice for optimal sealing with 27. 5in UST rims, or the trusty stand in, an inner tube. The High Roller II EXO Tubeless Ready 27. 5in Tire is equally happy mounted up front or out back.

"Fabulous stay"
The corner apartment is in new condition and extremely clean and quiet. Every room is exceptionally well equipped and the tasteful owner-created art added a wonderful touch. A large grocery store is conveniently nearby and the cathedral is a 15-20 minute walk. Our children enjoyed the nearby park, which added to the homey feel.

loved it just as much as the previous Ender series
"I learned so much"
Having little knowledge of finance I learned much. Mostly I gained appreciation for the unmitigated avarice of unregulated investment banking. Well-written and well-researched. Makes you feel like you were there.
"Well-written, outstanding narrator"
This book is almost better heard than read because of the Jamaican patois. The reader nails the Jamaican and switches effortlessly to other accents including "proper" British, cockney and Irish.
The descriptions are so vivid that I can still "see" each character in my mind's eye. The story would make for a compelling, albeit disturbing, movie.
"very moving"
Overt American racism in the guise of Jim Crow laws existed in my lifetime (I'm old, but not that old). It still blows my mind! This book gives us a window on that relatively recent time and place. Well written. Excellent narration. I felt like I was there.
"awesome story"
Eugenides is an outstanding writer. Tabori does an excellent job with the accents but mispronounces the medical terms.
"couldn't "put it down""
slow start...but oh what a finish
"excellent science for everyone"
Carroll gets it right. Great case studies carefully explained puts this up there with The Beak of the Finch as testimony to the wondrous workings of evolution and natural selection.
"A must read"
This book gave me a new perspective on the muslim world and makes me glad I don't live there
"Some good stuff here"
Too "touchy-feely" for me at times but there is some good advice.
"Fascinating and enjoyable"
Although some of Gladwell's assertions are subject to debate, there is no doubt that they are well presented and certainly make good "food for thought".

Truly the perfect place to stay in Niagara for our New Years getaway! Close to convenient public transportation and very close to the falls if driving! Our stay was wonderful, everything was extremely clean and the fridge was stocked with goodies. The apartment was so warm and cozy, thanks to the fireplace and comfy beds. The separate entrance really made it feel like your own place. The hosts were very friendly and truly made you feel at home. Would love to come back in the summer!
We stayed with Daria for 2 nights and she made us feel extremely welcome. The apartment was fabulous, better than the photos. It was spacious, clean and easy to access. And the fridge was well stocked with goodies. We were very tired when we arrived, and Daria kindly provided a home cooked dish for our dinner, which was greatly appreciated.
Daria was a WONDERFUL hostess! She was so nice and helpful in making sure we had everything we needed and would be comfortable. The apartment was exactly as in the pictures and more comfortable than my own apartment. :-) It was very clean and definitely cozy. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to have just about anything we wanted for breakfast. The house was very easy to get to and close to shopping, restaurants, and the Falls. I really appreciated that there was space to park our vehicle in the driveway. After a long day of touring the Falls, it was nice to come back to such a wonderful place and feel like we were at home. The patio area out back is also a wonderful place to just sit and unwind. Overally, our stay was excellent and Daria is awesome!!
The house was beautiful. It's a private apartment attached to their main home. Daria was very welcoming and provided a fridge full of yummy breakfast goods. The apartment was very clean, kept up to date and we were much more comfortable there (a family of 4) than we would have been in a hotel. All in all we had a very pleasant stay.
It was a nice house, we appreciate lot.. Very clean and organized
In two words: just excellent. This is probably our best Airbnb experience so far. Daria is a very friendly host and has prepared us a memorable stay in Niagara Falls. The place is really comfortable and after a day out at Niagara Falls, it is really a pleasure to hang out on the bank, watch TV for an hour, have some scenic sight of the falls by night and return for a peaceful sleep. Excellent breakfast with bagels, eggs and bacon, yogurt and fruit. I warmly recommend this place to all that wish to spend a night close to Niagara Falls (count about 5 to 10 minutes by car).
We stayed for two nights on our roadtrip and this was absolutely the best experience we've made so far. A very nice apartment, well equipped and very clean. And Daria and Frank are great hosts. Very friendly and easy to communicate with. The fridge was filled up with lots of food and they served us fruit upon arrival. They gave us all the information we needed for the stay. Too bad we didn't stay longer...and we recommend to stay here if you visit Niagara Falls. We would love to come back.

We love people and would like to open our home to those who would prefer an apt over a Hotel room..

El Presidente "MADRONO" Beachside, Heated Pool
Malaga, Andalusia, Spain
Additional Location Information
El Presidente, where we also live, is a wonderful beach-side complex close to Marbella, Puerto Banus and Estepona and is generally regarded as one of the best complexes on the coast. Within a short walking distance of the complex are the beach and many excellent local restaurants and a small supermarket.
Free parking is available for our apartments. There is also a taxi rank at the entrance to our community and a local bus service with bus-stops nearby.
We are ideally located away from the noise of Puerto Banus, Marbella and Estepona and yet it is just a short and easy drive along the coast road to all of them. Indeed it would be impossible to find a more spacious and luxurious complex at this price anywhere along the coast and certainly not in Puerto Banus or Marbella where they are generally much more compactly built.
The area around Marbella is well known for its unique micro-climate which gives us over 300 days of sunshine each year as well as extremely pleasant temperatures, even in the summer months when elsewhere in Spain it can sometimes become unbearably hot!
Whilst the Costa del Sol is particularly renowned for its lovely beaches and wonderful Mediterranean lifestyle there is of course so much more to enjoy including beautiful countryside just a short distance away. El Presidente is also ideally located to enable you to visit the beautiful cities of Granada, Seville and Cordoba as well as the lovely local towns of Ronda, Mijas, Casares and Benahavis. We can also help to arrange memorable day trips to these big cities as well as to Gibraltar and the amazing city of Tangier in Morocco!
We are also surrounded by many excellent golf courses and family attractions, including theme, water, animal and sea life parks and dolphin boat rides.
Although one of our nearest airports is Malaga, our guests also fly in to Gibraltar and Jerez. Should you require it, we are also able to organise your discounted car rental and taxi transfers from Malaga. The journey time from Malaga and Gibraltar airports is approximately 40 minutes.

Hibernian dismiss announcer
Tue, 13 Nov 2012 11:25:00
Hibernian have sacked their stadium announcer after he played a song that teased bitter rivals Hearts over their financial problems.
Hearts could go out of business within days after the club was issued with a winding-up order by HMRC over an unpaid ?450,000 PAYE, National Insurance and VAT bill.
During the half-time break at Easter Road in Hibernian's 2-1 victory over Dundee United on Sunday the announcer played the Beatles song Tax Man.
The match was televised on Sky Sports, and some Hearts fans took offence to the gesture and complained.
A Hibernian spokesman insisted the record had not been sanctioned to be aired by the club.
"The stadium announcer's contract has been terminated following a breach of conduct," the spokesman said.

This used to be BY FAR our favourite place to eat in Kenya. However in the last couple of months something has changed which makes me want to share here.
The waiting staff are still the best in East Africa and the setting is still lovely whether at lunch or in the evening.
However the quality and quantity of the food have both dropped in the last few months. I don't know if there have been some changes behind the scenes. We have complained about the portion sizes and food quality on more than one occasion but it seems to fall on deaf ears.
What a shame. Bring back the old Talisman please!! This place has become a victim of its own success. Perhaps the closure of the Rusty Nail means there's no local competition to keep them on their toes any more?

FSBO for neighbors
We were thinking of doing a short FSBO just for immediate neighborhood.
Distribute flyers, mention in the flyer that we think that this is one of the prettiest neighborhoods in our village (which we do), let folks know that if they've ever had a friend, acquaintance or relative express an interest in living here, our house is on the market.
After that introduction, the flyer would include description, features, address, a website with pictures, assessed value and the price we'd be interested in (which is below assessed value and would be well in line with comps).
How does that sound? If it doesn't work pretty quickly, we're going to go the more conventional route, but we're thinking it can't hurt.
I've just done that. I put together a "Dear Neighbor" flyer with a photo of the house on one side and details on the other. I included my phone number and email address. I had it printed 2-sided on good quality paper at FedEx Office.
I didn't show the assessed value or price on the flyer, nor did I create a website although that would have been easy to do. When someone emailed who was interested, I said that we'd just interviewed 4 agents for the listing and their comps all showed a price of $xxx. If that price was in the range, then the people were free to look at the house.
I put 20 fliers on door handles around the neighborhood, skipping ones where it seemed the owners were out of town and focusing on houses with children. I got a nasty email from one neighbor saying that fliers in door handles just advertised that the owners were on vacation and he'd removed 3 of the fliers plus his and thrown them away. Ok, not a totally invalid point. Anyway, of the 16 fliers that actually got delivered, I got about 8 responses and had 7 families come through the house (the 8th declined after hearing the price).
I'm assuming all the buyers were qualified as my town (and neighborhood) is fairly high-income and a lot of houses are selling with all-cash offers. The reason I didn't advertise more aggressively as a FSBO, on Craig's List for example, is because I didn't want to go through the work of making sure buyers had pre-approval letters from their lender. I think a much larger percentage of random buyers from FSBO websites would have not been qualified, and I wanted to avoid that hassle. But I was willing to be a little more lax with friends-of-neighbors because I'm assuming they'd be financially secure.
Three of the families came back for 2nd viewings and seriously considered making offers on the house, but there were 2 factors that make our house less desirable (no open kitchen/family room which everyone wants these days, and we back on to a street rather than backing on to another house).
When we signed our listing agreement, we excluded these families from the agreement for 10 days.
As long as you don't mind the work of getting the house ready for a showing, and you're comfortable that your neighbors' friends are going to be qualified buyers, I don't think it hurts to try a flyer.
Good luck!
Before you price it publicly, I strongly suggest that you get an appraisal done so you know whether the price you're thinking of is in the ball park, or not.
You can keep the results of the appraisal secret from any potential buyers so you can price it a bit above appraisal, if you like. Or, alternatively, use the number in your negotiations if that helps your position, too.
An appraisal is not the same as a Competetive Marketing Analysis that realtor might offer you in order to entice you into listing with them. A good appraisal should give you an accurate idea of what your property would sell for today, (not what you "might" be able to get for it) That's a very useful number to know.
Appraisals cost $300-600 in most places for SFH w/o acreage or non-residential elements. The amount is deductible from any net sale proceeds when calculating the capital gains. I would never sell, even with a realtor, without one and certainly never as a FSBO without one.
NCRealEstate guy,
Of course, the CMA and an private appraisal should be close, but the appraiser is NOT hoping to be a party to the sale, i.e. get the listing and the realtor is.
What a realtor proposes as an asking price, for better or worse, is a huge piece of many sellers' decision-making process over who to list with. We often see that here when people complain that their house isn't selling despite the asking price being what their chosen realtor recommended. And we usually tell them, what? Your price is probably too high.
Also it's been my experience that an appraisal is a useful, gut-check version of what you could get today, as is, from a shall we say, an "experienced" buyer. Not what you might get, not what a novice seller might hope for (or even "have to get"), nor what a novice buyer might be persuaded to pay, etc.
Nope, an appraisal should be as concrete a number as might be used by a court to divvy up assets between warring parties. In other words, a number devoid of all the emotional and personal folderol that seems to stick to many home-sale deals.

If you like to plan your travels so as to cater for your own tastes and time-frames, why stay in a hotel? A real home in one of the many unique streets of Berlin could be much more pleasant.
You can make tea at any time, whist taking in the city from your flat's balcony, or enjoy the luxury of breakfast in bed, whilst you plan your day. On your return you will find a warm and welcoming environment which is miles away from an anonymous hotel room.

Not worthy of an AA 3 star rating. I asked to change room after the first night. There was no coat hook, no towel rail, no chair and the shower was awful. The second room was very cramped with the toilet extractor fan venting into the bedroom. Again there was nowhere to hang anything and the carpets needed cleaning. Breakfast seemed to be all Tesco value. Over priced.

Hermitage Guest House Reviews
I was made very welcome, there was always someone available for help. Good food and a good room.
Basic room. Very clean. Nice breakfast. Shower facility encompassed with toilet area.
Cannot believe this place is AA 3 star. In need of complete refurbishment. On the plus side,was a good location and just did the job for one night. Also, not a bad price for Edinburgh (but would be poor value in most other places). Had difficulty finding a dining chair that did not feel it was about to collapse. Very basic breakfast with poor choice of cereal, no fruit, yoghurt or rolls in evidence, bacon was obviously cheap watery stuff. Would not go back
I was slightly disappointed with the Hermitage Guest House. Everything seemed to be quite minature. Nothing was terrible though and for the price I don't think I can complain. The food was nice and the people too
- TravelStay Price Promise:
- Find the same room for less and we will refund you the difference. (Terms & Conditions apply)

Phil Miller covered three seasons of Twins baseball, but that was at a different ballpark for a different newspaper. Now Miller returns to the baseball beat after joining the Star Tribune as the Gopher football writer in 2010, and he won't miss the dingy dome for a minute. In addition to the Twins and Gophers, Miller covered the Utah Jazz and the NBA for six years at The Salt Lake Tribune.
FORT MYERS, FLA. -- Aaron Hicks and Wilkin Ramirez each homered, and Eduardo Escobar drove in a pair of runs, but Puerto Rico rallied with five runs over the final four innings to win a tune-up game for this weekend's World Baseball Classic, 8-7 in Hammond Stadium.
Hicks led off the bottom of the first by plunking a palm tree beyond the right field fence, his second home run of the spring. Hicks, competing for the starting job in center field, added a walk and a single, scoring two runs.
Vance Worley allowed two earned runs in 3 1/3 innings, but retired seven of the final nine hitters he faced.
The Twins led Team Puerto Rico 5-2 after three innings, but Jared Burton allowed two runs on a home run by Pedro Valdes, and Alex Burnett gave up three runs in 1 1/3 innings to surrender the lead.
Puerto Rico, which collected 17 hits, opens WBC play Friday in San Juan against Spain. The Twins return to Grapefruit League action Thursday with split-squad games, one at home against the Red Sox and one in Clearwater against the Phillies.

"Rabbi Pamela Gottfried of Marietta has been selected for the third-annual class of Rabbis Without
Borders, a fellowship program of Clal, that aims to bring rabbis from across the nation closer both to each other and closer to their communities."
"Rabbi Michelle Robinson of Temple Emanuel in Newton was selected to join Clal's Rabbis Without Borders initiative. The 22 rabbis in the program will meet four times in a year to discuss ways to spread Jewish thought and practice. The Dec. 19-20 program will feature social media innovators Rabbi Owen Gottlieb and Daniel Sieradisky. Clal, the National Jewish Center for Learning and Leadership, was founded in 1974 by Rabbi Irving Greenberg and Elie Wiesel."
"Interest in the program has only increased over the years," said Rabbi Rebecca W. Sirbu, RWB Director. "Rabbis recognize that the religious environment has changed — from family make up to spiritual practice. To reach people where they are, rabbis need to apply their skills in new ways. RWB offers that kind of support. It helps rabbis better communicate in both familiar and new venues, and makes Jewish wisdom an accessible resource for the American public..."
"Rabbis Without Borders (RWB), Clal's landmark initiative that helps rabbis make Jewish thought and practice more available for improving people's lives, selected its third class for its competitive rabbinic fellowship program. More than 90 applicants competed for the 22 spots. Of those selected, Shoshana Mitrani Knapp from Chappaqua was picked for this prestigious program...."
